< 1 Corinthians 10 >
1 Nítorí èmi kò fẹ́ kí ẹ̀yin jẹ́ òpè si òtítọ́, ẹ̀yin arákùnrin ọ̀wọ́n, a kó gbọdọ̀ gbàgbé ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ sí àwọn ènìyàn wa nínú aginjù. Ọlọ́run ṣamọ̀nà wọn nípa rírán ìkùùkuu síwájú wọn, ó sì sìn wọ́n la omi Òkun pupa já.
For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant, how that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2 A lè pe eléyìí ní ìtẹ̀bọmi ti Mose nínú ìkùùkuu àti nínú omi Òkun.
and were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3 Nípa iṣẹ́ ìyanu, gbogbo wọn jẹ oúnjẹ ẹ̀mí kan náà.
and did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4 Wọ́n mu nínú omi tí Kristi fi fún wọn. Wọ́n mu omi ẹ̀mí láti inú àpáta tí ó ń tẹ̀lé wọn, àpáta náà ni Kristi. Ó wà pẹ̀lú wọn nínú aginjù náà, òun ni àpáta tí ń fi omi ẹ̀mí tu ọkàn lára.
and did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of a spiritual rock that followed them: and the rock was Christ.
5 Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ wọn ni inú Ọlọ́run kò dún sí; nítorí a pa wọ́n run nínú aginjù.
Howbeit with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
6 Àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí sì jásí àpẹẹrẹ fún àwa, kí a má ṣe ní ìfẹ́ sí àwọn ohun búburú gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn ènìyàn yìí ṣe ní ìfẹ́ si.
Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
7 Kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe jẹ́ abọ̀rìṣà gẹ́gẹ́ bí wọ́n ti ṣe; gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ pé, “Àwọn ènìyàn náà jókòó láti jẹ àti láti mu, wọ́n sì dìde dúró láti ṣe ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́.”
Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí àwa kí ó má ṣe ṣe àgbèrè gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn mìíràn nínú wọn ti ṣe, tí ẹgbẹ̀rún méjìlélógún ó lé lẹgbẹ̀rún ènìyàn sì kú ní ọjọ́ kan.
Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ̀yin má ṣe dán Olúwa wò, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn mìíràn nínú wọn ti dán an wò, tí a sì fi ejò run wọ́n.
Neither let us tempt the Lord, as some of them tempted, and perished by the serpents.
10 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ̀yin kí ó má ṣe kùn, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwọn mìíràn nínú wọ́n ṣe kùn, tí a sì ti ọwọ́ olùparun run wọ́n.
Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
11 Gbogbo àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ṣẹlẹ̀ sí wọn bí àpẹẹrẹ fún wa, a sì kọ̀wé wọn fún ìkìlọ̀ fún wa, àwa ẹni tí ìgbẹ̀yìn ayé dé bá. (aiōn )
Now these things happened unto them by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. (aiōn )
12 Nítorí náà, ẹni tí ó bá rò pé òun dúró, kí ó kíyèsára kí ó ma ba à ṣubú.
Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.
13 Kò sí ìdánwò kan tí ó ti bá yín, bí kò ṣe irú èyí tí ó mọ níwọ̀n fún ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n olódodo ni Ọlọ́run, ẹni ti kì yóò jẹ́ kí á dán an yín wò ju bí ẹ̀yin ti le gbà, ṣùgbọ́n tí yóò sì ṣe ọ̀nà àbáyọ pẹ̀lú nínú ìdánwò náà, kí ẹ̀yin ba à lè faradà á.
There hath no temptation taken you but such as man can bear: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to endure it.
14 Nítorí náà, ẹ̀yin olùfẹ́ ọ̀wọ́n, ẹ sá fún ìbọ̀rìṣà.
Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15 Èmi ń sọ̀rọ̀ bí ọlọ́gbọ́n ènìyàn, ṣe ìdájọ́ fúnra rẹ̀ ohun tí mo sọ.
I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
16 Ǹjẹ́ ago ìdúpẹ́ nípasẹ̀ èyí tí a ń dúpẹ́ fún, kì í ha ṣe jíjẹ́ alábápín ìdàpọ̀ nínú ẹ̀jẹ̀ Kristi bí? Àkàrà tí a bù, kì í ha ṣe jíjẹ́ alábápín nínú ara Kristi bi?
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a communion of the body of Christ?
17 Nítorí àkàrà kan ni ó ń bẹ, àwa tí a pọ̀ níye, tí a sì jẹ ara kan ń pín nínú àkàrà kan ṣoṣo.
seeing that we, who are many, are one bread, one body: for we all partake of the one bread.
18 Ẹ wo Israẹli nípa ti ara, àwọn tí ń jẹ ohun ẹbọ kò ha ṣe alábápín pẹpẹ bí?
Behold Israel after the flesh: have not they which eat the sacrifices communion with the altar?
19 Ǹjẹ́ kí ni mo ń wí? Ṣé pé ohun tí a fi rú ẹbọ sí òrìṣà jẹ́ nǹkan kan tàbí pé òrìṣà jẹ́ nǹkan kan?
What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20 Rárá, ṣùgbọ́n ohun tí mo ń wí ni pé, ohun tí àwọn aláìkọlà fi ń rú ẹbọ wọn fi fun àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù. Dájúdájú kì í ṣe ìrúbọ sí Ọlọ́run. Èmi kò sì fẹ́ kí ẹnikẹ́ni nínú yín so ara rẹ̀ pọ̀ mọ́ ẹ̀mí èṣù.
But [I say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have communion with devils.
21 Ẹ̀yin kò lè mu nínú ago tí Olúwa àti ago ti èṣù lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà; ẹ̀yin kò le ṣe àjọpín ní tábìlì Olúwa, àti ni tábìlì ẹ̀mí èṣù lẹ́ẹ̀kan náà.
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and of the table of devils.
22 Kí ni ẹ̀ ń gbìyànjú láti ṣe? Àwa ha ń mú Olúwa jowú bí? Àwa ha ní agbára jù ú lọ bi?
Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 “Ohun gbogbo ni o yẹ fún mi,” ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe ohun gbogbo ni ó ní èrè. “Ohun gbogbo ni ó yẹ fún mi,” ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe ohun gbogbo ni ń gbe ni rò.
All things are lawful; but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful; but all things edify not.
24 Má ṣe ronú nípa ara rẹ̀ nìkan; ṣùgbọ́n kí olúkúlùkù máa wá rere ọmọnìkejì rẹ̀.
Let no man seek his own, but [each] his neighbour’s [good].
25 Jẹ ẹrankẹ́ran tí wọ́n bá ń tà lọ́jà. Má ṣe gbìyànjú láti wádìí lọ́wọ́ ẹni tí ń tà á nítorí ẹ̀rí ọkàn.
Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat, asking no question for conscience sake;
26 Nítorí “Ayé àti gbogbo nǹkan rere tí ń bẹ nínú rẹ̀, tí Olúwa ni wọ́n jẹ́.”
for the earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof.
27 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni tí kì í bá ṣe onígbàgbọ́ ba pè yín sí ibi àsè láti jẹun, bá a lọ. Gba ìpè rẹ̀ tí ó bá tẹ́ ọ lọ́rùn. Jẹ ohunkóhun tí ó bá pèsè sílẹ̀ fún àsè náà, má ṣe béèrè ohunkóhun nípa rẹ̀ nítorí ẹ̀rí ọkàn.
If one of them that believe not biddeth you [to a feast], and ye are disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
28 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá sì kìlọ̀ fún un yín pé, “A ti fi ẹran yìí rú ẹbọ,” ẹ má ṣe jẹ́ ẹ nítorí ẹni ti o sọ fun ọ àti nítorí ẹ̀rí ọkàn.
But if any man say unto you, This hath been offered in sacrifice, eat not, for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake:
29 Èmi ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ẹ̀rí ọkàn ẹni tí ó sọ fún ọ kì í ṣe tirẹ̀. Nítorí kín ni a ó fi dá mi lẹ́jọ́ nítorí ẹ̀rí ọkàn ẹlòmíràn.
conscience, I say, not thine own, but the other’s; for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
30 Bí èmi ba fi ọpẹ́ jẹ ẹ́, èéṣe tí a fì ń sọ̀rọ̀ mi ní búburú nítorí ohun tí èmi dúpẹ́ fún.
If I by grace partake, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
31 Nítorí náà tí ẹ̀yin bá jẹ tàbí tí ẹ bá mu tàbí ohunkóhun tí ẹ̀yin bá sè, e máa ṣe gbogbo rẹ̀ fún ògo Ọlọ́run.
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
32 Nítorí náà, má ṣe jẹ́ òkúta ìkọ̀sẹ̀ tí ó lè gbé ẹlòmíràn ṣubú ìbá à ṣe Júù tàbí Giriki tàbí ìjọ Ọlọ́run.
Give no occasion of stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God:
33 Bí mo ṣè n gbìyànjú láti tẹ́ ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan lọ́rùn nínú gbogbo nǹkan tí mo bá ń ṣe láì wa ohun rere fún ara mi bí kò ṣe ti ènìyàn púpọ̀ kí ó lè ṣe é ṣe fún wọn láti le ní ìgbàlà.
even as I also please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of the many, that they may be saved.
