1 Qorontos 10
1 Yaa obboloota, akka abbootiin keenya hundi duumessa jala turan, akka hundi isaaniis galaana keessa darban akka isin utuu hin beekin haftan ani hin barbaadu.
Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 Hundi isaaniis kan Musee taʼuuf duumessaa fi galaanaan cuuphaman.
and were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 Hundi isaaniis nyaata hafuuraa tokkicha nyaatan.
and all ate the same spiritual food;
4 Hundi isaaniis dhugaatii hafuuraa tokkicha dhugan. Isaan kattaa hafuuraa isa isaan wajjin deemaa ture irraa dhuganiiruutii; kattaan sunis Kiristoos ture.
and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.
5 Taʼu iyyuu waan Waaqni hedduu isaaniitti hin gammadiniif isaan lafa gammoojjii keessatti dhuman.
However with most of them, God was not well pleased, for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Wantoonni kunneen akka nu akkuma isaanii waan hamaa hin hawwineef fakkeenya nuu taʼan.
Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.
7 Akka isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko godhan sana isin waaqota tolfamoo hin waaqeffatinaa; kunis akkuma, “Namoonni nyaachuu fi dhuguuf tataaʼan; sirbuufis kaʼan” jedhamee barreeffamee dha.
Don’t be idolaters, as some of them were. As it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.”
8 Akka isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko halalummaa raawwatanii guyyaa tokkotti namoonni 23,000 dhuman sana, nu halalummaa raawwachuu hin qabnu.
Let’s not commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.
9 Akka isaan keessaa tokko tokko Gooftaa qoranii bofaan ajjeefaman sana nu Gooftaa qoruu hin qabnu.
Let’s not test Christ, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.
10 Isin akka isaan keessaa tokko tokko guungumanii isa nama balleessuun balleeffaman sana hin guunguminaa.
Don’t grumble, as some of them also grumbled, and perished by the destroyer.
11 Kun hundi akka fakkeenya taʼuuf isaan irratti raawwatame; nuu warra dhumni baraa itti dhufeef immoo akka of eeggannaa taʼuuf barreeffame. (aiōn g165)
Now all these things happened to them by way of example, and they were written for our admonition, on whom the ends of the ages have come. (aiōn g165)
12 Kanaafuu namni waan dhaabate of seʼu akka hin kufneef of haa eeggatu.
Therefore let him who thinks he stands be careful that he doesn’t fall.
13 Qorama nama irra gaʼu malee qoramni tokko iyyuu isinitti hin dhufne. Waaqnis amanamaa dha; inni akka isin waan baachuu hin dandeenyeen qoramtan isin hin godhu. Yommuu qoramtanitti garuu inni akka isin obsuu dandeessaniif karaa ittiin keessaa baatan isiniif qopheessa.
No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
14 Kanaafuu yaa michoota ko, isin waaqota tolfamoo waaqeffachuu irraa baqadhaa.
Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15 Ani namoota hubannaa qabanittin dubbadha; waan ani dubbadhu isinuu murteessaa.
I speak as to wise men. Judge what I say.
16 Xoofoon eebbaa kan nu eebbifnu sun dhiiga Kiristoos wajjin tokkummaa qaba mitii? Buddeenni nu caccabsinu sunis foon Kiristoos wajjin tokkummaa qaba mitii?
The cup of blessing which we bless, isn’t it a sharing of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, isn’t it a sharing of the body of Christ?
17 Waan buddeenni tokko qofti jiruuf, nu baayʼee taanu iyyuu dhagnuma tokko; hundi keenya buddeenuma tokkicha sana irraa hirmaannaatii.
Because there is one loaf of bread, we, who are many, are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf of bread.
18 Mee saba Israaʼel ilaalaa: Warri aarsaa irraa nyaatan sun iddoo aarsaa irraa qooda qabu mitii?
Consider Israel according to the flesh. Don’t those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?
19 Egaa maal jechuu koo ti? Nyaanni waaqota tolfamoof aarsaa dhiʼeeffamu wayi moo ree yookaan Waaqni tolfamaan wayi moo ree jechuu kootii?
What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20 Akkas miti; aarsaan namoonni ormaa dhiʼeessan hafuurota hamoodhaaf malee Waaqaaf miti; ani akka isin hafuurota hamoo wajjin tokkummaa qabaattan hin barbaadu.
But I say that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I don’t desire that you would have fellowship with demons.
21 Isin xoofoo Gooftaatii fi xoofoo hafuurota hamoo dhuguu hin dandeessan; maaddii Gooftaatii fi maaddii hafuurota hamoo irrattis hirmaachuu hin dandeessan.
You can’t both drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You can’t both partake of the table of the Lord and of the table of demons.
22 Nu Gooftaa hinaaffaaf kakaafnaa? Nu isa caalaas jabaannaa?
Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?
23 “Wanni hundinuu anaaf eeyyamamaa dha;” kan faayidaa qabu garuu waan hunda miti. “Wanni hundinuu anaaf eeyyamamaa dha;” kan nama fayyadu garuu waan hunda miti.
“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are profitable. “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things build up.
24 Namni tokko iyyuu waan warra kaaniif gaarii taʼe barbaaduu qaba malee waan ofii isaatiif gaarii taʼe barbaaduu hin qabu.
Let no one seek his own, but each one his neighbor’s good.
25 Utuu gaaffii qalbii keessaa tokko illee hin kaasin waan gabaa fooniitti gurguramu kam iyyuu nyaadhaa;
Whatever is sold in the butcher shop, eat, asking no question for the sake of conscience,
26 “Laftii fi wanni lafa irra jiru hundinuu kan Gooftaatii.”
for “the earth is the Lord’s, and its fullness.”
27 Warra hin amanin keessaa yoo namni tokko nyaataaf isin affeere, isinis yoo dhaquu barbaaddan dhaqaa; utuu gaaffii qalbii keessaa tokko illee hin kaasin waan isin duratti dhiʼeeffame kam iyyuu nyaadhaa.
But if one of those who don’t believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.
28 Garuu yoo namni tokko, “Kun waaqota tolfamoodhaaf dhiʼeeffame” isiniin jedhe, sababii namicha isinitti hime sanaatii fi sababii qalbiitiif waan sana hin nyaatinaa.
But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” don’t eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For “the earth is the Lord’s, with all its fullness.”
29 Kanas qalbii namicha sanaati malee kan keeti jechuu koo miti. Maaliif qalbii nama biraatiin bilisummaa kootti murama ree?
Conscience, I say, not your own, but the other’s conscience. For why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
30 Ani ergan galateeffachuudhaan nyaata sana irratti hirmaadhee maaliifan waan ittiin Waaqa galateeffadhuun balaaleffatama ree?
If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced for something I give thanks for?
31 Kanaafuu yoo nyaattan yookaan yoo dhugdan yookaan yoo waanuma fedhe illee hojjettan waan hunda ulfina Waaqaatiif hojjedhaa.
Whether therefore you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
32 Yihuudoota yookaan Giriikota yookaan waldaa kiristaanaa kan Waaqaa hin gufachiisinaa;
Give no occasion for stumbling, whether to Jews, to Greeks, or to the assembly of God;
33 kunis akkuma ani nama hunda karaa hundaan gammachiisuuf yaalii godhutti jechuu dha. Ani akka isaan fayyaniif buʼaa namoota baayʼeetiif malee buʼaa kootiif jedhee waan kana hin godhu.
even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, that they may be saved.
