1 Korintoarrei 15
1 Bada auisatzen çaituztet, anayeác, declaratu drauçuedan Euangelioaz, cein recebitu baituçue, ceinetan egoiten-ere baitzarete.
Next, Brothers, I would remind you of the Good News which I told you, and which you received — the Good News on which you have taken your stand,
2 Ceinez saluatzen-ere baitzarete, baldin orhoit baçarete cer maneraz hura denuntiatu drauçuedan: baldin alfer sinhetsi vkan ezpaduçue.
and by means of which you are being saved. I would remind you of the very words that I used in telling it to you, since you are still holding fast to it, and since it was not in vain that you became believers in Christ.
3 Ecen eman drauçuet recebitu-ere vkan nuena: nola Christ hil içan den gure bekatuacgatic, Scripturén araura:
For at the very beginning of my teaching I gave you the account which I had myself received — that Christ died for our sins (as the Scriptures had foretold),
4 Eta nola ohortze eta resuscitatu içan den hereneco egunean, Scripturén araura:
that he was buried, that on the third day he was raised (as the Scriptures had foretold),
5 Eta nola ikussi içan den Cephasez, eta guero hamabiéz.
and that he appeared to Kephas, and then to the Twelve.
6 Gueroztic ikussi içan da borz ehun anayez baina guehiagoz aldi batez: ceinetaric anhitz vici baitirade oraindrano, eta batzu lokartu-ere içan dirade:
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of our Brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have gone to their rest.
7 Gueroztic ikussi içan da Iacquesez: eta guero Apostolu guciez.
After that, he appeared to James, and then to all the Apostles.
8 Eta gucietaco azquenenic, aburtoin ançocoaz ikussi içan da niçaz-ere.
Last of all, he appeared even to me, who am, as it were, the abortion.
9 Ecen ni naiz Apostoluetaco chipiena, Apostolu deithu içateco digne eznaicenor, ceren persecutatu vkan baitut Iaincoaren Eliçá.
For I am the meanest of the Apostles, I who am unworthy of the name of ‘Apostle,’ because I persecuted the Church of God.
10 Baina Iaincoaren gratiaz naiz naicena: eta haren ni baitharaco gratiá, ezta vano içan, aitzitic hec guciac baino guehiago trabaillatu içan naiz: badaric-ere ez ni, baina Iaincoaren gratia enequin dena.
But it is through the love of God that I am what I am, and the love that he showed me has not been wasted. No, I have toiled harder than any of them, and yet it was not I, but the love of God working with me.
11 Beraz, bada nic, bada hec, hunela predicatzen dugu, eta hunela sinhetsi vkan duçue.
Whether, then, it was I or whether it was they, this we proclaim, and this you believed.
12 Eta baldin Christ predicatzen bada ecen hiletaric resuscitatu içan dela, nola erraiten dute batzuc çuen artean, ecen hilén resurrectioneric eztela?
Now, if it is proclaimed of Christ that he has been raised from the dead, how is it that some of you say that there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead?
13 Ecen baldin hilén resurrectioneric ezpada, Christ-ere ezta resuscitatu içan.
But, if there is no such thing as a resurrection of the dead, then even Christ has not been raised;
14 Eta baldin Christ resuscitatu içan ezpada, beraz vano da gure predicationea, eta çuen fedea-ere vano da.
and, if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation is without meaning, and our faith without meaning also!
15 Eta erideiten-ere bagara Iaincoaren testimonio falsu: ecen testificatu vkan dugu Iaincoaz, nola resuscitatu vkan duen Christ, cein ezpaitu resuscitatu, baldin hilac resuscitatzen ezpadirade.
Yes, and we are being proved to have borne false testimony about God; for we testified of God that he raised the Christ, whom he did not raise, if, indeed, the dead do not rise!
16 Ecen baldin hilac resuscitatzen ezpadirade, Christ-ere ezta resuscitatu içan.
For, if the dead do not rise, then even Christ himself has not been raised,
17 Eta baldin Christ resuscitatu içan ezpada, vano da çuen fedea: oraino çuen bekatuetan çarete.
and, if Christ has not been raised, your faith is folly — your sins are on you still!
18 Beraz Christan lokartu diradenac-ere, galdu içan dirade.
Yes, and they, who have passed to their rest in union with Christ, perished!
19 Baldin vicitze hunetan solament Christ baithan sperança badugu, guiçon gucietaco miserablenac gu gara.
If all that we have done has been to place our hope in Christ for this life, then we of all men are the most to be pitied.
20 Baina orain, Christ resuscitatu içan da hiletaric: eta lokartu içan diradenén primitia eguin içan da.
But, in truth, Christ has been raised from the dead, the first-fruits of those who are at rest.
21 Ecen herioa guiçon batez denaz gueroz, hilén resurrectionea-ere guiçon-batez da.
For, since through a man there is death, so, too, through a man there is a resurrection of the dead.
22 Ecen nola guciac Adamtan hiltzen baitirade, hala Christan-ere viuificaturen dirade guciac.
For, as through union with Adam all men die, so through union with the Christ will all be made to live.
23 Baina batbedera bere ordenançán: primitia Christ, guero Christen diradenac, haren aduenimenduan.
But each in his proper order — Christ the first-fruits; afterwards, at his Coming, those who belong to the Christ.
24 Guero içanen da fina, eman drauqueonean resumá Iainco Aitari: abolitu duqueenean principaltassun gucia, eta puissança eta bothere gucia.
Then will come the end — when he surrenders the Kingdom to his God and Father, having overthrown all other rule and all other authority and power.
25 Ecen behar du harc regnatu, etsay guciac bere oinén azpian eçarri dituqueeno.
For he must reign until God ‘has put all his enemies under his feet.’
26 Eta azquen etsay deseguinen dena herioa da.
The last enemy to be overthrown is death;
27 Ecen gauça guciac suiet eguin vkan ditu haren oinén azpico (baina erraiten duenean, ecen gauça guciac haren suiet eguin içan diradela, agueria da ecen gauça guciac haren suiet eguin dituena reseruatua dela.)
for God has placed all things under Christ’s feet. (But, when it is said that all things have been placed under Christ, it is plain that God is excepted who placed everything under him.)
28 Eta gauça guciac hari suiet eguin çaizqueonean, orduan Semea bera-ere suiet eguinen çayó gauça guciac hari suiet eguin drauzquionari, Iaincoa dençat gucia gucietan.
And, when everything has been placed under him, the Son will place himself under God who placed everything under him, that God may be all in all!
29 Bercela cer eguinen duté hiltzat batheyatzen diradenéc, baldin guciz hilac resuscitatzen ezpadirade? eta cergatic batheyatzen dirade hiltzat?
Again, what good will they be doing who are baptized on behalf of the dead? If it is true that the dead do not rise, why are people baptized on their behalf?
30 Eta cergatic gu periletan gara ordu oroz?
Why, too, do we risk our lives every hour?
31 Egunetic egunera hiltzen naiz, gure gloria Iesus Christ gure Iaunean dudanaz.
Daily I face death — I swear it, Brothers, by the pride in you that I feel through my union with Christ Jesus, our Lord.
32 Baldin guiçonaren arauez bestién contra bataillatu içan banaiz Ephesen, cer probetchu dut, baldin hilac resuscitatzen ezpadirade? Ian deçagun eta edan deçagun: ecen bihar hilen gara.
If with only human hopes I had fought in the arena at Ephesus, what should I have gained by it? If the dead do not rise, then — ‘Let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we shall die’!
33 Etzaiteztela seduci. Propos gaichtoéc corrumpitzen dituzte conditione onac.
Do not be deceived. ‘Good character is marred by evil company.’
34 Iratzar çaiteztez iustoqui vicitzera, eta bekaturic eztaguiçuela: ecen batzuc Iaincoaren eçagutzea eztuté: çuen ahalquetan erraiten drauçuet.
Awake to a righteous life, and cease to sin. There are some who have no true knowledge of God. I speak in this way to shame you.
35 Baina erranen du cembeitec, Nola resuscitatzen dirade hilac? eta nolaco gorputzetan ethorriren dirade?
Some one, however, may ask ‘How do the dead rise? and in what body will they come?’
36 Erhoá, hic ereiten duána, eztuc viuificatzen, baldin hil ezpadadi.
You foolish man! The seed you yourself sow does not come to life, unless it dies!
37 Eta ereiten duána, eztuc gorputz sorthuren dena ereiten, baina bihi hutsa, nola heltzen baita, oguiarena, edo cembeit berce bihirena.
And when you sow, you sow not the body that will be, but a mere grain — perhaps of wheat, or something else.
38 Baina Iaincoac emaiten diraucac gorputza nahi duen beçala, eta hacietaric batbederari ceini bere gorputz propria.
God gives it the body that he pleases — to each seed its special body.
39 Haragui gucia ezta haragui ber-bat: baina berce da guiçonén haraguia, eta berce, abren haraguia: eta berce arrainena: eta berce choriena.
All forms of life are not the same; there is one for men, another for beasts, another for birds, and another for fishes.
40 Eta badirade gorputz cerucoac, eta badirade gorputz lurrecoac: baina berce da cerucoén gloriá, eta berce lurrecoena.
There are heavenly bodies, and earthly bodies; but the beauty of the heavenly bodies is not the beauty of the earthly.
41 Berce da iguzquiaren gloriá, eta berce ilharguiaren gloriá, eta berce içarren gloriá: ecen içarra içarraganic different da gloriatan.
There is a beauty of the sun, and a beauty of the moon, and a beauty of the stars; for even star differs from star in beauty.
42 Hala içanen da hilén resurrectionea-ere: gorputza ereiten da corruptionetan, resuscitatzen da incorruptionetan.
It is the same with the resurrection of the dead. Sown a mortal body, it rises immortal; sown disfigured, it rises beautiful;
43 Ereiten da desohorezco, resuscitatzen da glorioso: ereiten da infirmo, resuscitatzen da botheretsu.
sown weak, it rises strong; sown a human body, it rises a spiritual body.
44 Ereiten da gorputz sensual, resuscitatzen da gorputz spiritual: bada gorputz sensuala, eta bada gorputz spirituala.
As surely as there is a human body, there is also a spiritual body.
45 Scribatua-ere den beçala, Eguin içan da Adam lehen guiçona arima vicitan: Adam guerocoa spiritu viuificaçaletan.
That is what is meant by the words — ‘Adam, the first man, became a human being’; the last Adam became a Life-giving spirit.
46 Baina spiritual dena ezta lehen, baina sensual dena: guero spiritual dena.
That which comes first is not the spiritual, but the human; afterwards comes the spiritual;
47 Lehen guiçona lurretic, lurreco: eta bigarren guiçona, cein baita Iauna, cerutic.
the first man was from the dust of the earth; the second man from Heaven.
48 Lurrecoa nolaco, halaco lurreco diradenac-ere: eta cerucoa nolaco, halaco cerucoac-ere.
Those who are of the dust are like him who came from the dust; and those who are of Heaven are like him who came from Heaven.
49 Eta lurrecoaren imaginá ekarri vkan dugun beçala, ekarriren dugu cerucoaren imagina-ere.
And as we have borne the likeness of him who came from the dust, so let us bear the likeness of him who came from Heaven.
50 Huná cer diodan, anayeác, ecen haraguiac eta odolac Iaincoaren resumá hereta ecin deçaquetela: eta corruptioneac eztuela incorruptionea heretatzen.
This I say, Brothers — Flesh and blood can have no share in the Kingdom of God, nor can the perishable share the imperishable.
51 Huná, mysteriobat erraiten drauçuet, Guciac behinçat lokarturen ez gara, baina guciac bay muthaturen:
Listen, I will tell you God’s hidden purpose! We shall not all have passed to our rest, but we shall all be transformed — in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
52 Moment batez eta begui keinu batez, azquen trompettán (ecen ioren du trompettác) eta hilac resuscitaturen dirade incorruptible, eta gu muthaturen gara.
at the last trumpet-call; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will rise immortal, and we, also, shall be transformed.
53 Ecen behar da corruptible haur vezti dadin incorruptionez, eta mortal haur vezti dadin immortalitatez.
For this perishable body of ours must put on an imperishable form, and this dying body a deathless form.
54 Bada corruptible haur veztitu datenean incorruptionez, eta mortal haur veztitu datenean immortalitatez, orduan eguinen da scribatu dena, Iretsi içan da herioa victoriatara.
And, when this dying body has put on its deathless form, then indeed will the words of Scripture come true —
‘Death has been swallowed up in victory! Where, O Death, is thy victory? Where, O Death, is thy sting?’ (Hadēs g86)
56 Bada herioaren eztena, bekatua da: eta bekatuaren botherea, Leguea.
It is sin that gives death its sting, and it is the Law that gives sin its power.
57 Baina esquer Iaincoari, ceinec victoria eman baitraucu Iesus Christ gure Iaunaz.
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
58 Halacotz, ene anaye maiteác, çareten fermu, constant, abundoso Iaunaren obrán bethiere, daquiçuelaric ecen çuen trabaillua eztela vano gure Iaunean.
Therefore, my dear Brothers, stand firm, unshaken, always diligent in the Lord’s work, for you know that, in union with him, your toil is not in vain.
