1 Korintoarrei 10
1 Nahi dut bada daquiçuen anayeác, ecen gure Aitác oro hodey azpian içan diradela, eta guciac itsassoaz iragan içan diradela:
My fellow believers, I want to remind you about our(exc) [Jewish] ancestors. They were all under the cloud [by which God miraculously led them and protected them when they left Egypt with Moses]. All those ancestors crossed the [Red] Sea [after God miraculously made the water separate so that they could walk through it].
2 Eta guciac Moysestan batheyatu içan diradela hodeyean eta itsassoan.
God caused all of them to begin to live under the authority of [MTY] Moses [when they walked] under that cloud and [walked through the Red] Sea.
3 Eta guciéc vianda spiritual ber batetaric ian dutela.
All [those ancestors of ours ate the same food that God] miraculously [provided].
4 Eta guciéc edari spiritual-ber batetaric edan dutela: ecen edaten çutén iarreiquiten çayen Harri spiritualetic: eta Harria cen Christ.
They all drank water that [God] miraculously [provided]. That is, they all drank water that God miraculously made come out of the rock. That rock was [a symbol of] [MET] Christ, who went with them. [So we conclude that God helped all of those people in many ways].
5 Baina hetaric anhitzen gainean eztu placer hartu vcan Iaincoac: ecen deseguin içan dirade desertuan.
However, [we also conclude that] God was angry [LIT] with most of those people [because they sinned against him. He caused almost all of them to die, and as] a result their bodies were scattered in the desert.
6 Eta gauça hauc gure exemplutan içan dirade, guthicia eztitzagunçat gauça gaichtoac, nola hec guthiciatu baitituzté.
Those things [that happened long ago] became examples to teach us [the following things]: We should not desire to [do] evil things as those people desired to do.
7 Eta etzareten idolatre, hetaric batzu leguez, scribatua den beçala, Iarri içan da populua iatera eta edatera, eta iaiqui içan dirade dostetara.
We should not worship idols as many of those people did. [Remember that Moses] wrote, “The people sat down. They ate and drank [to honor the golden calf that they had just made]. Then they got up to dance [immorally].”
8 Eta ezteçagun paillarda, hetaric batzuc paillardatu vkan dutén beçala, eta hil içan baitirade egun batez hoguey eta hirur milla.
We should not have sexual relations with someone to whom we are not married, as many of them did. As a result, God [punished them by] causing 23,000 people to die in [only] one day.
9 Eta ezteçagun tenta Christ, hetaric batzuc tentatu vkan dutén beçala, eta suguéz deseguin içan baitirade.
We should not try to see how much we can sin without the Lord punishing us. Some of them did that, and as a result they died because [poisonous] snakes [bit them].
10 Eta ezteçaçuen murmura, hetaric batzuc murmuratu vkan dutén beçala, eta deseguin içan baitirade deseguileaz.
We should not complain [about what God does]. Some of them did that, and as a result an angel destroyed them. [So God will certainly punish us if we sin like they did].
11 Eta gauça hauc gucioc exemplutan heltzen çaizten hæyr: eta scribatu içan dirade gure admonitionetan, ceinetara demborén finac heldu içan baitirade. (aiōn g165)
All those things [that happened to our ancestors long ago] are examples for us. [Moses] wrote those things to warn us [who are living at this time which is near the end]. We are the people for whom God has done [the things that he decided to do in] the previous periods of time. (aiōn g165)
12 Hunegatic bada çutic dagoela vste duenac, beguira biu error eztadin.
So [I say this to] all those who confidently [think that they will always] steadfastly continue to [believe what God said and will never disobey what he commanded]: Be careful that you [(sg)] do not sin [when you are tempted].
13 Tentationec etzaituztez hartu humanoc baicen: eta fidal da Iaincoa, ceinec ezpaitu permettituren tenta çaitezten egar ahal deçaque çuen baino guehiagoz: baina emanen du tentationearequin batean ilkitbidea-ere sustenga ahal deçaçuençát.
[Remember that] your desires to sin are the same desires that other people have. But when you are tempted to sin, you can trust God [to help you]. He will not permit you to be tempted {anything to tempt you} more than you are able to resist. Instead, when you are tempted {things tempt you}, he will also provide a way [for you] to endure it [without sinning].
14 Hunegatic, ene maiteác, ihes eguiçue idolatriatic.
So, [I say to] you people whom I love, [avoid] worshipping idols [just like you would] run away from [anything that is dangerous].
15 Adituey beçala minço natzaiçue: ceuroc iugea eçaçue erraiten dudanaz.
It is to people who [think that they] are wise that I write. So, you, as wise people, judge whether what I am writing [is true].
16 Benedictionezco copa benedicatzen duguna, ezta Christen odolaren communionea? eta hausten dugun oguia ezta Christen gorputzaren communionea?
[During the Lord’s Supper, after we ask God to] bless (the [wine]/the [juice]) [in the] cup, we give thanks for it [and drink it]. By doing that, we certainly are [RHQ] sharing in what Christ [did for us when] his blood [flowed from his body when he died. During the Lord’s Supper, when we break] the bread [and eat it], we are certainly sharing in [MTY] what Christ [did for us when] his body [suffered for us on the cross]. [RHQ]
17 Ecen gu baicara anhitz, oguibat gara eta gorputzbat: ceren guciac ogui batetan participant baicara.
Because it is one loaf of bread that we [break and eat during the Lord’s Supper, it symbolizes that] we who are many are one group, because we all eat from the one loaf.
18 Ikussaçue Israel haraguiaren arauez dena: sacrificioac iaten dituztenac, eztirade aldarean participant?
Consider [what happens when] the Israeli people [eat the food that the priests] sacrifice on the altar [outside the Temple]. They participate in [what the priests do at] [MTY] the altar. [RHQ] [Similarly, if you eat food that non-believers have offered to an idol in a temple, you are participating in their worship of the idol there].
19 Cer erraiten dut beraz? idola cerbait dela? edo idolari sacrificatu çayona, cerbait dela? ez.
By saying that, [I] do not mean that offering food to an idol makes it anything [more than just ordinary food [RHQ].] I do not mean that an idol is anything [more than just an idol].
20 Aitzitic diot, ecen Gentiléc sacrificatzen ditutzen gauçác, deabruey sacrificatzen drauztela, eta ez Iaincoari: eztut bada nahi çuec participant çareten deabruén.
No! Instead, I mean that what people sacrifice [to idols], they are sacrificing to demons, not to God. So, [if you eat food that has been sacrificed to idols, you are participating in worshipping the demons that the idols represent]. And I do not want you to participate in worshipping demons!
21 Ecin Iaunaren copá edan deçaqueçue, eta deabruaren copá: ecin Iaunaren mahainean participant çaratezte: eta deabruén mahainean.
When you drink the [grape juice/wine in] [MTY] the cup [at the Lord’s Supper], you cannot participate in the [blessings that] the Lord [Jesus] brought to us and at the same time drink the [wine in the] [MTY] cup that people offer to demons! When you eat at the Lord’s table, you cannot participate in the blessings the Lord provided [MTY] when he died for us and at the same time participate in the things that represent demons [by eating food that has been sacrificed to idols]
22 Ala nahi dugu asserre eraci Iauna? ala hura baino borthitzago gara?
[If you participate in honoring demons in that way], you will certainly make the Lord very angry [RHQ]! (Remember that you are certainly not stronger than he is./Do you think that you are stronger than he is?) [RHQ] [Certainly not, so you will not escape his punishing you if you honor demons in that way!]
23 Gauça guciac permettitzen çaizquit, baina guciac eztirade probetchutaco: gauça guciac permettitzen çaizquit, baina gauça guciéc eztute edificatzen.
[Some people say], “[God] permits [believers to do] anything.” But [I say that] not everything that people do benefits [those who do it! Yes, some people say], “God permits [believers to do] all things.” But not everything that people do helps them to become [spiritually] mature.
24 Nehorc ezteçala bere propria bilha, baina batbederac bercerena.
No one should try to benefit [only] himself. Instead, each person should try to benefit other people [spiritually].
25 Haraquinçán saltzen den orotaric, ianagaçue: deus galdeguin gabe conscientiagatic.
[This is what you should do]: Eat any [food] that is sold {that people sell} in the market. Do not ask questions [to find out if that food has been offered] {[someone offered that food]} [to idols, just] because you think it would be wrong [to eat such food].
26 Ecen Iaunarena da lurra eta hartango complimendua.
[Remember that the Psalmist wrote], “Everything on the earth belongs to [the] Lord [God because he created it!]” [So, food that has been offered to idols belongs to the Lord, not to the idols, and you may eat it].
27 Eta baldin infideletaric cembeitec gomitatzen baçaituztez, eta ioan nahi baçarete: aitzinera eçarten çaiçuen orotaric ianagaçue, deus galdeguin gabe conscientiagatic.
If a non-believer invites you to a meal, go if you want to, and eat any food that is set {that [he] sets} before you. Do not ask [whether it was offered to idols, just] because you think that it would be wrong [to eat such food].
28 Baina baldin cembeitec erran badieçaçue, Haur idoley sacrificatua da, ezteçaçuela ian, auertitu çaituztenagatic, eta conscientiagatic: ecen Iaunarena da lurra eta hartango complimendua.
But if someone says to you, “This is food that was sacrificed [to an idol],” do not eat it, for the sake of the person who told that to you, and also because someone there may think that it is wrong [to eat such food].
29 Baina conscientiá erraiten diat, ez hirea, baina bercearena: ecen cergatic ene libertatea iudicatzen da berceren conscientiaz?
I do not mean that you [should be concerned about whether it is all right to eat such food]. What I mean is that you should be concerned about others who may think that it is wrong to eat such food. Since I know that I (am free/have the right) [to eat such food without God punishing me], no one should [RHQ] say that what I am doing is wrong just because he himself thinks that it is wrong.
30 Eta baldin nic gratiaz viandán participatzen badut, cergatic gaichto iudicatzen naiz nic esquerrac emaiten ditudan gauçagatic?
If I thank [God] for the food when I eat [food that has been offered to an idol], no one should criticize me for eating food for which I have thanked God [RHQ]!
31 Bada, edo iaten baduçue, edo edaten baduçue. edo cerbait berceric eguiten baduçue, gucia Iaincoaren gloriatan eguiçue.
So [I say to you in conclusion], when you eat [food], or drink [something], or do anything else, do everything in order that [people will] praise God.
32 Çareten scandalo gabe eta Iuduetara eta Grecoetara eta Iaincoaren Eliçagana.
Do not do anything that would hinder Jews or Greeks [from becoming believers], and do not do things that would encourage members of God’s congregations to sin.
33 Ni-ere gauça gucietan gucién gogaraco naicen beçala, bilhatzen eztudala neure probetchu propria: baina anhitzena, salua ditecençat.
[Do as I do]. I try to please everyone in every way. I do this by not seeking to benefit myself. Instead, I try to benefit many others, in order that they may be saved {that [God] may save them} [from the guilt of their sins].
