1 Korintos 8
1 Xagga waxyaalaha sanamyada loo sadqeeyo, waxaynu garanaynaa inaynu dhammaan aqoon u wada leennahay. Aqoontu way kibrisaa, jacaylkuse wax buu dhisaa.
Now as concerning things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.
2 Qof uuni hadduu u malaynayo inuu wax garanayo, weli garan maayo siduu u garan lahaa.
And if any man thinketh that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
3 Laakiin qof uuni hadduu Ilaah jecel yahay, Ilaah baa garanaya isaga.
But if any man loveth God, the same is known by him.
4 Haddaba xagga cunidda waxyaalaha sanamyada loo sadqeeyo, waxaynu garanaynaa inuusan sanam waxba dunida ka ahayn oo aan Ilaah jirin mid mooyaane.
Therefore as concerning the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that [there is] no other God but one.
5 Waayo, in kastoo ay samada iyo dhulkaba jiraan wax ilaahyo lagu sheego, sidii iyadoo ilaahyo badan iyo sayidyo badni jiraan,
For though there are that are called gods, whether in heaven or upon earth, (as there are gods many, and lords many)
6 laakiin innagu waxaynu leennahay Ilaah keliya oo Aabbaha ah, kan wax waluba ka yimaadaan oo innagana isagaa ina leh, iyo Sayid keliya oo Ciise Masiix ah, kan wax waluba ku ahaadeen oo innaguna isagaynu ku ahaannay.
Yet to us [there is but] one God, the Father, from whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him.
7 Laakiin dad oo dhammu aqoontaas ma wada laha, laakiin qaar sanamka tan iyo hadda u bartay, waxay u qabaan waxay cunaan sidii wax sanam loo sadqeeyo, qalbigooda itaalka daranina wuu nijaasoobay.
But [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol to this hour eat [it] as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8 Cuntadu ina hor joojin mayso Ilaah. Haddaynan cunin waxba inagama dhacaan, haddaynu cunnona waxba inooma kordhaan.
But food commendeth us not to God: for neither if we eat, are we the better; neither if we eat not, are we the worse.
9 Laakiin iska dhawra si aan ikhtiyaarkiinnu wax lagu turunturoodo ugu noqon kuwa itaalka daran.
But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours should become a stumbling-block to them that are weak.
10 Haddii qof ku arko adigoo aqoonta leh oo cunto ugu fadhiya meeshii sanamyada, hadduu qalbiga ka itaal daranyahay, qalbigiisu miyaanu ku adkaanaynin inuu cuno waxa sanamyada loo sadqeeyo?
For if any man shall see thee, who hast knowledge, sit eating in the idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
11 Waayo, waxaa aqoontaada aawadeed lumaya ka itaalka daran oo ah walaalkaagii uu Masiixu aawadiis u dhintay.
And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
12 Markaad walaalaha sidaas ugu dembaabtaan oo aad qalbigooda itaalka daran u xumaysaan, waxaad ku dembaabtaan Masiix.
But when ye thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
