1 Korintoarrei 4
1 Estima beça guçaz guiçonac Christen ministréz, eta Iaincoaren secretuén dispensaçaléz beçala.
Let a man consider us like this: as Christ's subordinates and stewards of God's mysteries.
2 Baina gaineracoaz, necessario da dispensaçaletan leyal batbedera eriden dadin.
Moreover, what is required of stewards is that each be found faithful.
3 Niçaz den becembatean, ansia guti dut çueçaz edo iugemendu humanoz iudicatu içatearen: are neure buruä-ere eztut iudicatzen.
So to me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by a human court; in fact, I do not even judge myself.
4 Ecen deusetan eztut neure buruä hoguendun senditzen: ordea huneçaz eznaiz iustificatu: baina ni iudicatzen nauena, Iauna da.
For I am conscious of nothing against myself, although I am not justified by this; it is the Lord who judges me.
5 Halacotz, ezteçaçuela dembora baino lehen iudica, Iauna dathorreno, ceinec ilhumbeco gauça estaliac-ere arguituren baititu, eta bihotzetaco conseilluac manifestaturen: eta orduan laudorio vkanen du batbederac Iaincoaganic.
Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and expose the motives of the hearts. At that time the praise that comes to each will be from God.
6 Bada anayác, gauça hauc minçatzeco manera batez itzuli vkan ditut neure eta Apolloren gainera, çuen causaz: gutan ikas deçaçuençát, scribatua den baino guehiago ez presumitzera: bata bercearen contra hant etzaiteztençát berceren contra.
I have illustrated these things using myself and Apollos, brothers, for your sakes, so that you may learn from us not to think beyond what is written, that no one of you be puffed up in favor of the one against the other.
7 Ecen norc hi reputationetan eçarten au? eta cer duc recebitu vkan eztuanic? eta baldin recebitu vkan baduc, cergatic gloriatzen aiz recebitu ezpahu beçala?
Now who is distinguishing you? Or what do you have that you did not receive? So if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?
8 Ia asse çarete, ia abrastu çarete, gu gabe reguetu çarete: eta aitzineçate regna, guc-ere çuequin batean regna deçagunçát.
You are already stuffed! You are already rich! You have become ‘kings’ without us! I could wish that you really did reign, so that we might be kings with you too!
9 Ecen badaritzat Iaincoac gu monstrança eçarri gaituela, baicara, azquen Apostoluac, heriotara condemnatuac beçala: ecen beguietaco miragarri eguin içan gaitzaizte munduari eta Aingueruey eta guiçoney.
For I keep thinking that God has displayed us, the apostles, at the end of the line, like men sentenced to death; because we have been made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men.
10 Gu erho Christgatic, eta çuec çuhur Christ Iaunean, gu flaccu, eta çuec sendo: çuec noble, eta gu bilaun. Ordu hunetarano eta gosse gara eta egarri gara, eta billuci gara, eta buffetatzen gara, eta leku batetic bercera errebelatuac gabiltza:
We are fools for Christ while you are wise! We are weak but you are strong! You are esteemed, we are despised!
11 Eta trabaillatzen gara, gure escu propriéz lan eguinez.
To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty; we are poorly dressed, brutally treated, and wander homeless;
12 Iniuriatzen gara, eta vngui erraiten dugu: persecutatzen gara, eta suffritzen dugu:
yes, we labor, working with our own hands. Upon being reviled, we bless; upon being persecuted, we endure it;
13 Diffamatzen gara, eta othoitz eguiten dugu, munduco scobaquin beçala eguin içan gara, eta gucién karracaquin beçala oraindrano.
upon being slandered, we exhort. We have been made as the refuse of the world, the off-scouring of whatever, to this moment.
14 Eztrauzquiçuet gauça hauc scribatzen ahalque çaitzatedançát, baina neure haour maite anço auisatzen çaituztet.
I am not writing these things to shame you; I am admonishing you as my dear children.
15 Ecen hamar milla pedagogo bacintuzte-ere Christean, ez ordea anhitz aita: ecen Iesus Christean, Euangelioaz nic engendratu vkan çaituztet.
Because even if you were to have thousands of tutors in Christ, you would not have many fathers, because I am the one who begot you in Christ Jesus, through the Gospel.
16 Othoitz eguiten drauçuet bada, ene imitaçale çareten.
Therefore I am urging you, become my imitators.
17 Halacotz igorri drauçuet Timotheo, cein baita ene seme maitea eta fidela gure Iaunean, harc orhoit eraciren drauzquiçue ceric diraden ene bideac Christean, leku gucietan Eliça orotan iracasten dudan beçala.
That is why I sent you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful son in Sovereign, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, just as I teach everywhere in every congregation.
18 Ni çuetara ethorteco ezpaninz beçala, batzu hantuac içan dirade.
Now some have been puffed up, as though I were not coming to you.
19 Baina ethorriren naiz sarri çuetara, baldin Iaunac nahi badu: eta eçaguturen dut, ez hantu içan diraden horién hitza, baina verthutea.
But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills, and I will know, not the word of those who have been puffed up, but the power.
20 Ecen Iaincoaren resumá ezta hitzean, baina verthute spiritualean.
Because the Kingdom of God is not in word but in power.
21 Cer nahi duçue? cihorrequin ethorriren naiz çuetara, ala charitaterequin eta emetassunezco spiriturequin?
What do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a gentle spirit?
