1 Korintos 1
1 Bawlos oo loogu yeedhay inuu doonistii Ilaah ku ahaado rasuulkii Ciise Masiix, iyo walaalkeen Soostenees,
I, Paul, [am writing this letter]. Sosthenes, our fellow believer, is with [me as I write it]. [God] appointed me to be an apostle of Christ Jesus because that is what God desired.
2 waxaannu warqaddan u qoraynaa kiniisadda Ilaah ee Korintos ku taal, kuwa quduus lagaga dhigay Ciise Masiix ee loogu yeedhay quduusiin, iyo kuwa meel kasta jooga oo ku barya magaca Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix oo ah Rabbigooda iyo keennaba.
[I am sending this letter] to all you who are God’s believers in Corinth [city]. You have been set apart [by God] {[God] has set you apart} for himself because (of your close relationship with/you belong to) Christ Jesus. God has appointed you to be his people and to live in a morally pure way, just like he has appointed all the people everywhere who belong to him to live in a morally pure way. You and they have trusted in the Lord Jesus Christ [MTY]. He is their sovereign Lord as well as the sovereign Lord of all of us [(inc)] who have trusted in him.
3 Nimco ha idinla jirto iyo nabad ka timaada Ilaaha Aabbeheen ah iyo Rabbi Ciise Masiix.
We [(exc)] desire that God, who is our [heavenly] Father, and Jesus Christ, who is our sovereign Lord, will continue to act kindly toward you and cause you to experience [inner] peace.
4 Mar kasta Ilaahay ayaan idiinku mahadnaqaa, nimcadii Ilaah ee Ciise Masiix laydinku siiyey aawadeed.
I very often [HYP] thank God for you because he has acted toward you kindly, acting in ways that you do not deserve. He has done this because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ Jesus.
5 Maxaa yeelay, wax walba hodan buu idinkaga dhigay, ha ahaato hadal walba iyo aqoon walbaba,
That is, [God] has [HYP] helped you spiritually very much because of your (having a close relationship with/being united to) Christ. Specifically, God has very much [HYP] enabled you to speak messages [that his Spirit revealed to you], and he has very much enabled you to know many things [HYP] that his Spirit revealed to you.
6 sida laydiinku adkeeyey maraggii Masiixa loo furay;
In that way, [he] confirmed to you that what we [(exc)] proclaimed about Christ is true.
7 si aan hadiyadiinna idiinka dhinmin intaad sugaysaan muujinta Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix;
As a result, while you wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to return, within your group you truly have [LIT] every ability that [God’s] Spirit gives [to believers].
8 kan haddana idinku adkayn doona ilaa dhammaadka, inaad eedla'aataan maalinta Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix.
God will also cause you to steadfastly [trust Christ to the very end of your lives] [EUP]. The result will be that God will not consider you guilty [of any sin] when our Lord Jesus Christ returns to earth [MTY].
9 Ilaah waa aamin, kan xaggiisa laydiinku yeedhay xidhiidhka Wiilkiisa Ciise Masiix ee Rabbigeenna ah.
You can depend on God to do that. He is the one who chose you to become intimately associated with his Son, Jesus Christ, who is our Lord.
10 Walaalayaalow, waxaan magaca Rabbigeenna Ciise Masiix idinkaga baryayaa inaad dhammaantiin isku wax ku wada hadashaan, iyo inaydnaan kala qaybsamin, laakiin inaad ku dhammaataan isku maan iyo isku talo.
My fellow believers, by the authority of [MTY] our Lord Jesus Christ, I urgently appeal to all of you to agree with one another. What I mean is, stop dividing into groups. Instead, be united [MET] concerning what you understand [about spiritual matters], and be united in what you decide.
11 Walaalahayow, dadkii Khalo'ee ayaa iiga kiin warramay in ilaaqi idin dhex taal.
My fellow believers, [I urge this] because some members of Chloe’s household have told me that you are quarreling among yourselves.
12 Tan waxaan ula jeedaa midkiin inuu leeyahay, Waxaan ka mid ahay kuwa Bawlos; mid kalena, Kuwa Abolloos; mid kalena, Kuwa Keeyfas; mid kalena, Kuwa Masiix.
That is, some of you say, “Paul is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and others say, “Peter is the one to whom we [are loyal],” and still others say, “Christ is the one to whom we [are loyal].”
13 Masiixu miyuu qaybsamaa? Bawlos miyaa iskutallaabta laydiinku qodbay? Ama ma waxaa laydinku baabtiisay magaca Bawlos?
[It is ridiculous that] [RHQ] [you are quarreling and] dividing up [into groups instead of being loyal to] Christ alone. Christ certainly has not divided himself into parts and distributed those parts out [to groups of people who oppose each other]! [MET, RHQ] I, Paul, certainly did not die on the cross for you! [RHQ] When you were baptized {When someone baptized you}, you certainly did not promise that you were submitting to me! [RHQ]
14 Waxaan Ilaah ugu mahadnaqayaa inaanan midkiinna baabtiisin, Kirisbos iyo Gayus maahee
I thank [God] that Crispus and Gaius were the only ones from among you whom I baptized.
15 inaanu ninna odhan, Waxaa laydinku baabtiisay Bawlos magiciisa.
As a result, no one [there in Corinth except those two] can say, “Paul baptized me so that I would become (his disciple/submissive to him).”
16 Waxaan kaloo baabtiisay kuwii guriga Istefanas joogay. Weliba garan maayo inaan qaar kale baabtiisay iyo in kale.
[Now I remember that] I also baptized the household of Stephanas, but I do not remember baptizing anyone else [there].
17 Waayo, Masiixu iima uu soo dirin inaan dad baabtiiso, laakiin wuxuu ii soo diray inaan dadka injiilka ku wacdiyo, ee ma aha inaan ku hadlo xigmadda hadalka, waaba intaasoo iskutallaabta Masiixa la caaqibo tiraaye.
Christ sent me not [primarily] to baptize people but to preach the good message about him. When I do that, he does not want me to use words that human philosophers [consider] wise [IRO]. I do not want the message about [what] he [accomplished when he was nailed to] the cross [MTY] to lose its power.
18 Waayo, hadalka ku saabsan iskutallaabtu waa u nacasnimo kuwa lumaya, laakiin waa u xoogga Ilaah kuweenna badbaadaya.
Those who are perishing spiritually [because they do not believe that message consider] that the message [about what Christ accomplished when he was nailed to the] cross [MTY] [is] foolish. But to us who are being saved {whom [God] is saving} [spiritually because we believe that message], it [demonstrates that] God acts powerfully [in order to save us].
19 Maxaa yeelay, waxaa qoran, Xigmadda kuwa xigmadda leh waan baabbi'in doonaa, Oo garashada kuwa garashada leh ayaan diidi doonaa.
[It is like what God said that] a prophet wrote long ago, [By the things that I will do], I will show that the ideas of those who [think] [IRO] they are wise are completely useless. I will ignore the ideas that they think are [IRO] so smart.
20 Meeh kan xigmadda lihi? Meeh kan culimmada ka mid ahi? Meeh kan wakhtigan muranka badani? Ilaah miyaanu nacasnimo ka dhigin xigmadda dunida? (aiōn g165)
So, do you know [what God thinks] about what [RHQ] people who [IRO] consider themselves to be wise and scholars and philosophers say? [He does not pay attention to what they say, because] [RHQ] he has shown clearly that what unbelievers [think is] [IRO] wise is [not wise at all], but is really foolish. (aiōn g165)
21 Dunidu Ilaah kuma ay garanaynin xigmaddeeda, laakiin Ilaah xigmaddiisa aawadeed ayuu ku farxay inuu kuwa rumaysta ku badbaadiyo nacasnimadii wacdiga.
God, acting very wisely, made it impossible for unbelievers to know God by doing what they thought was [IRO] wise. Instead, he was happy to save those who trust [in Christ] as the result of their hearing [the message that] was proclaimed to them, a message that others consider to be foolish.
22 In kastoo ay Yuhuuddu calaamooyin doonaan oo Gariigtuna ay xigmad doonaan,
The Jews want [people to prove, by performing] miracles, [that their message is true]. The non-Jews want to hear only messages consisting of talk that they consider to be very wise.
23 annaguse waxaannu dadka ku wacdinnaa Masiix oo iskutallaabta lagu qodbay, oo u ah xagga Yuhuudda wax lagu turunturoodo, xagga Gariigtana u ah nacasnimo.
As for us, we proclaim [the message about what] Christ [accomplished for us when] he was nailed {[when they] nailed him} to the cross. That message offends Jews [because they do not think that the Messiah will die, and] non-Jews think it is [IRO] a foolish message.
24 Xagga kuwa loo yeedhayse, ha ahaadeen Yuhuudda ama Gariigta, Masiix baa u ah xoogga Ilaah iyo xigmadda Ilaah.
But to us whom God has chosen to belong to himself, both Jews and non-Jews, that message shows that God acted powerfully and wisely [by sending] Christ [to die] for us.
25 Waayo, nacasnimada Ilaah waa ka xigmad badan tahay xigmadda dadka, oo itaaldarrada Ilaahna waa ka itaal badan tahay itaalka dadka.
[Unbelievers may think] [IRO] [that] God was [acting] foolishly [by doing that], but [the truth is that] he was acting more wisely than unbelievers who [just think that] [IRO] they are wise. And unbelievers may think that God was [acting] weakly [by sending his son to die], but he was acting more powerfully than unbelievers who [just think] [IRO] [that they] act powerfully.
26 U fiirsada waxa laydiinku yeedhay, walaalayaalow, sidaan loogu yeedhin qaar badan oo xigmad leh xagga jidhka, ama qaar badan oo xoog leh, ama qaar badan oo gob ah,
My fellow believers, remember what [kind of people you] were when God chose you. [Not many of you] whom he chose are people whom [unbelievers considered to be] wise. Very few of you were considered to be important. Very few of you came from families with a high social standing.
27 laakiinse Ilaah wuxuu doortay waxyaalaha nacasnimada ah ee dunida inuu ceebeeyo kuwa xigmadda leh, oo Ilaah baa doortay waxyaalaha itaalka daran inuu ceebeeyo waxyaalaha itaalka leh.
Instead, it was [usually] those whom [unbelievers considered to be] foolish whom God chose. He did that in order to shame/discredit those whom [unbelievers consider] [IRO] wise. It was [usually] those [whom unbelievers] considered [IRO] unimportant whom God chose, in order to shame/discredit those whom unbelievers consider important.
28 Waxyaalaha hoose iyo waxyaalaha la fududaystana Ilaah baa doortay, xataa waxyaalaha aan jirin, inuu waxyaalaha jira wax aan wax tarin ka dhigo,
It was usually those who are despised and considered {whom [unbelievers] despise and consider} worthless whom God chose, in order to make completely ineffective [what unbelievers consider to be important].
29 si aan qofna ugu faanin Ilaah hortiisa.
[He did that] in order that no one could boast to God about being wise or important.
30 Laakiin xaggiisa waxaad ku jirtaan Ciise Masiix kan inoo noqday xigmadda xagga Ilaah, iyo xaqnimada, iyo quduusnaanta, iyo madaxfurashada,
It is because of what God [has done] that you (have a close relationship with/belong to) Christ Jesus. God [put into effect] his wise [plan to save us] by what Christ did for us. As a result of what Christ did, God erases the record of our sins, sets us apart for himself, and frees us from our being guilty [for our sins].
31 in sida qoran, Kii faanaa, Rabbiga ha ku faano.
So, it is the Lord whom we should boast about, [not about one spiritual leader being better than another]. We should do as ([a prophet/Jeremiah]) wrote [in the Scriptures that we should do]: Those who boast should boast [only] about what the Lord [has done].
