1 karinthinaḥ 11
1 he bhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ sarvvasmin kāryye māṁ smaratha mayā ca yādṛgupadiṣṭāstādṛgācarathaitatkāraṇāt mayā praśaṁsanīyā ādhbe|
You are to imitate me, just as I imitate Christ.
2 tathāpi mamaiṣā vāñchā yad yūyamidam avagatā bhavatha,
Now I commend you for remembering me in everything and for maintaining the traditions, just as I passed them on to you.
3 ekaikasya puruṣasyottamāṅgasvarūpaḥ khrīṣṭaḥ, yoṣitaścottamāṅgasvarūpaḥ pumān, khrīṣṭasya cottamāṅgasvarūpa īśvaraḥ|
But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 aparam ācchāditottamāṅgena yena puṁsā prārthanā kriyata īśvarīyavāṇī kathyate vā tena svīyottamāṅgam avajñāyate|
Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
5 anācchāditottamāṅgayā yayā yoṣitā ca prārthanā kriyata īśvarīyavāṇī kathyate vā tayāpi svīyottamāṅgam avajñāyate yataḥ sā muṇḍitaśiraḥsadṛśā|
And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for it is just as if her head were shaved.
6 anācchāditamastakā yā yoṣit tasyāḥ śiraḥ muṇḍanīyameva kintu yoṣitaḥ keśacchedanaṁ śiromuṇḍanaṁ vā yadi lajjājanakaṁ bhavet tarhi tayā svaśira ācchādyatāṁ|
If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off. And if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.
7 pumān īśvarasya pratimūrttiḥ pratitejaḥsvarūpaśca tasmāt tena śiro nācchādanīyaṁ kintu sīmantinī puṁsaḥ pratibimbasvarūpā|
A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
8 yato yoṣātaḥ pumān nodapādi kintu puṁso yoṣid udapādi|
For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.
9 adhikantu yoṣitaḥ kṛte puṁsaḥ sṛṣṭi rna babhūva kintu puṁsaḥ kṛte yoṣitaḥ sṛṣṭi rbabhūva|
Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
10 iti heto rdūtānām ādarād yoṣitā śirasyadhīnatāsūcakam āvaraṇaṁ dharttavyaṁ|
For this reason a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.
11 tathāpi prabho rvidhinā pumāṁsaṁ vinā yoṣinna jāyate yoṣitañca vinā pumān na jāyate|
In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
12 yato yathā puṁso yoṣid udapādi tathā yoṣitaḥ pumān jāyate, sarvvavastūni ceśvarād utpadyante|
For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
13 yuṣmābhirevaitad vivicyatāṁ, anāvṛtayā yoṣitā prārthanaṁ kiṁ sudṛśyaṁ bhavet?
Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
14 puruṣasya dīrghakeśatvaṁ tasya lajjājanakaṁ, kintu yoṣito dīrghakeśatvaṁ tasyā gauravajanakaṁ
Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
15 yata ācchādanāya tasyai keśā dattā iti kiṁ yuṣmābhiḥ svabhāvato na śikṣyate?
but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
16 atra yadi kaścid vivaditum icchet tarhyasmākam īśvarīyasamitīnāñca tādṛśī rīti rna vidyate|
If anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.
17 yuṣmābhi rna bhadrāya kintu kutsitāya samāgamyate tasmād etāni bhāṣamāṇena mayā yūyaṁ na praśaṁsanīyāḥ|
In the following instructions I have no praise to offer, because your gatherings do more harm than good.
18 prathamataḥ samitau samāgatānāṁ yuṣmākaṁ madhye bhedāḥ santīti vārttā mayā śrūyate tanmadhye kiñcit satyaṁ manyate ca|
First of all, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.
19 yato heto ryuṣmanmadhye ye parīkṣitāste yat prakāśyante tadarthaṁ bhedai rbhavitavyameva|
And indeed, there must be differences among you to show which of you are approved.
20 ekatra samāgatai ryuṣmābhiḥ prabhāvaṁ bhejyaṁ bhujyata iti nahi;
Now then, when you come together, it is not the Lord’s Supper you eat.
21 yato bhojanakāle yuṣmākamekaikena svakīyaṁ bhakṣyaṁ tūrṇaṁ grasyate tasmād eko jano bubhukṣitastiṣṭhati, anyaśca paritṛpto bhavati|
For as you eat, each of you goes ahead without sharing his meal. While one remains hungry, another gets drunk.
22 bhojanapānārthaṁ yuṣmākaṁ kiṁ veśmāni na santi? yuṣmābhi rvā kim īśvarasya samitiṁ tucchīkṛtya dīnā lokā avajñāyante? ityanena mayā kiṁ vaktavyaṁ? yūyaṁ kiṁ mayā praśaṁsanīyāḥ? etasmin yūyaṁ na praśaṁsanīyāḥ|
Don’t you have your own homes in which to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What can I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? No, I will not!
23 prabhuto ya upadeśo mayā labdho yuṣmāsu samarpitaśca sa eṣaḥ|
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread,
24 parakarasamarpaṇakṣapāyāṁ prabhu ryīśuḥ pūpamādāyeśvaraṁ dhanyaṁ vyāhṛtya taṁ bhaṅktvā bhāṣitavān yuṣmābhiretad gṛhyatāṁ bhujyatāñca tad yuṣmatkṛte bhagnaṁ mama śarīraṁ; mama smaraṇārthaṁ yuṣmābhiretat kriyatāṁ|
and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
25 punaśca bhejanāt paraṁ tathaiva kaṁsam ādāya tenoktaṁ kaṁso'yaṁ mama śoṇitena sthāpito nūtananiyamaḥ; yativāraṁ yuṣmābhiretat pīyate tativāraṁ mama smaraṇārthaṁ pīyatāṁ|
In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
26 yativāraṁ yuṣmābhireṣa pūpo bhujyate bhājanenānena pīyate ca tativāraṁ prabhorāgamanaṁ yāvat tasya mṛtyuḥ prakāśyate|
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.
27 aparañca yaḥ kaścid ayogyatvena prabhorimaṁ pūpam aśnāti tasyānena bhājanena pivati ca sa prabhoḥ kāyarudhirayo rdaṇḍadāyī bhaviṣyati|
Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
28 tasmāt mānavenāgra ātmāna parīkṣya paścād eṣa pūpo bhujyatāṁ kaṁsenānena ca pīyatāṁ|
Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
29 yena cānarhatvena bhujyate pīyate ca prabhoḥ kāyam avimṛśatā tena daṇḍaprāptaye bhujyate pīyate ca|
For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.
30 etatkāraṇād yuṣmākaṁ bhūriśo lokā durbbalā rogiṇaśca santi bahavaśca mahānidrāṁ gatāḥ|
That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.
31 asmābhi ryadyātmavicāro'kāriṣyata tarhi daṇḍo nālapsyata;
Now if we judged ourselves properly, we would not come under judgment.
32 kintu yadāsmākaṁ vicāro bhavati tadā vayaṁ jagato janaiḥ samaṁ yad daṇḍaṁ na labhāmahe tadarthaṁ prabhunā śāstiṁ bhuṁjmahe|
But when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.
33 he mama bhrātaraḥ, bhojanārthaṁ militānāṁ yuṣmākam ekenetaro'nugṛhyatāṁ|
So, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
34 yaśca bubhukṣitaḥ sa svagṛhe bhuṅktāṁ| daṇḍaprāptaye yuṣmābhi rna samāgamyatāṁ| etadbhinnaṁ yad ādeṣṭavyaṁ tad yuṣmatsamīpāgamanakāle mayādekṣyate|
If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you come together it will not result in judgment. And when I come, I will give instructions about the remaining matters.
