1 Korintoarrei 9
1 Eznaiz Apostolu? eznaiz libre? eztut Iesus Christ gure Iauna ikussi? etzarete çuec ene lana gure Iaunean?
Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my workmanship in the Lord?
2 Baldin bercén Apostolu ezpanaiz, çuen berere banaiz: ecen ene Apostolutassunaren cigulua çuec çarete gure Iaunean.
If I am not an apostle to others, at least I am to you. For you are the proof of my apostleship in the Lord.
3 Ene defensá examinatzen nautenac baithara, haur da:
This is my defense to those who examine me:
4 Ala extugu bothere iateco eta edateco?
Do we not have the right to eat and drink?
5 Ala eztugu bothere emazte arreba baten gucietan erabilteco, berce Apostoluéc, eta Iaunaren anayéc, eta Cephasec beçala?
Do we not have the right to take along with us a wife who is a believer, as do the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
6 Edo, nic neurorrec eta Barnabasec eztugu bothere lanic ez eguiteco?
Or is it only Barnabas and I who must work?
7 Norc guerlaric eguiten du bere despendioz behinere? norc landatzen du mahasti, eta haren fructutic eztu iaten? edo norc bazcatzen du arthaldea, eta arthaldearen eznetic eztu edaten?
Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat its fruit? Or who tends a flock and does not drink milk from it?
8 Ala guiçonaren arauez gauça hauc erraiten ditut? ala Legueac-ere eztitu gauça hauc erraiten?
Do I say these things based on human authority? Does not the law also say this?
9 Ecen Moysesen Leguean scribatua da, Eztraucac ahoa lothuren idi bihitzen ari denari. Ala artha du idiéz Iaincoac?
For it is written in the law of Moses, “Do not put a muzzle on an ox when it is treading out the grain.” Is it really the oxen that God cares about?
10 Ala haur guciz guregatic erraiten du? segur haur guregatic scribatua da: ecen sperançatan behar du laboratzen duenac, laboratu: eta bihitzen duenac participant içateco sperançatan.
Is he not speaking about us? It was written for us, because the one who plows should plow in hope, and the one who threshes should thresh in the expectation of sharing in the harvest.
11 Baldin guc çuey gauça spiritualac erein badrauzquiçuegu, gauça handia da çuen carnalac biltzen baditugu?
If we sowed spiritual things among you, is it too much for us to reap material things from you?
12 Baldin berceac bothere hunetan çuen artean participant badirade, ceren ez cineçago gu? baina eztugu bothere hunez vsatu vkan: aitzitic gauça guciac suffritzen ditugu, Christen Euangelioari empatchuric batre eztemogunçát.
If others exercised this right from you, do we not have even more? But we did not claim this right. Instead we endured everything rather than be a hindrance to the gospel of Christ.
13 Eztaquiçue ecen sacrificioac eguiten dituztenéc, gauça sacrificatuetaric iaten dutela? eta aldarean emplegatzen diradenéc, aldarearequin perticipatzen dutela?
Do you not know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple? Do you not know that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar?
14 Hala gure Iaunac-ere ordenatu vkan draue Euangelioa predicatzen duteney, Euangeliotic vici diraden.
In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living from the gospel.
15 Badaric-ere nic gauça hautaric batez-ere eztut vsatu vkan. Eta gauça hauc eztitut scribatu, hala niri eguin daquidançat: ecen hobe nuque hil nendin ecen ez nehorc ene glorificamendua ezdeusetara deçan.
But I have not claimed any of these rights. And I do not write this so something might be done for me. I would rather die than anyone deprive me of this boast.
16 Ecen Euangelizatzen badut-ere, eztut ceren gloria nadin: ecen necessitateac eraguiten draut: eta maledictione niri-baldin euangeliza ezpadeçat.
For if I preach the gospel, I have no reason for boasting, because I must do this. And woe be to me if I do not preach the gospel!
17 Ecen baldin gogotic haur eguiten badut, sari dut: baina baldin gogoz garaitic eguiten badut, dispensationea eman içan çait.
For if I do this willingly, I have a reward. But if not willingly, I still have a responsibility that was entrusted to me.
18 Cer sari dut beraz? Euangelioa predicatzen dudanean, Christen Euangelioa deus hartu gabe predica deçadan, ezteçadan gaizqui vsat neure bothereaz Euangelioan.
What then is my reward? That when I preach, I may offer the gospel without charge and so not take full use of my right in the gospel.
19 Ecen gucietaric libre banaiz-ere, gucien suiectioneco neure buruä eguin vkan dut, gende guehiago irabaz deçadançát.
For though I am free from all, I became a servant to all, in order that I might win more.
20 Eta eguin içan natzaye Iuduey Iudu beçala, Iuduac irabaz ditzadançát: Leguearen azpico diradeney, Leguearen azpico baninz beçala, Leguearen azpian diradenac irabaz ditzadançát.
To the Jews I became like a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law, I became like one under the law in order to win those under the law. I did this even though I myself was not under the law.
21 Legue gabey Legue gabe baninz beçala, (Legue gabe ezpanaiz-ere Iaincoagana, baina Christen Leguearen azpico) Legue gabeac irabaz ditzadançát.
To those outside the law, I became like one outside the law, although I was not outside the law of God myself, but under the law of Christ. I did this so that I may win those outside the law.
22 Eguin içan natzaye infirmoey infirmo beçala, infirmoac irabaz ditzadançát: guciey eguin içan natzaye gauça gucia, guciz batzu salua ditzadançat.
To the weak I became weak, so that I may win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by all means save some.
23 Eta haur eguiten dut Euangelioagatic, çuequin batean participant hartan eguin nadinçát.
I do all things for the gospel's sake, so that I may participate in its blessings.
24 Eztaquiçue ecen stadioan laster eguiten dutenéc, guciéc laster eguiten badutela, baina batec precioa hartzen duela? hala laster eguiçue non har baiteçaqueçue.
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run the race, but that only one receives the prize? So run to win the prize.
25 Eta combatitzen den gucia, regimenduz gauça gucietan vici da: eta hec eguiten duté coroa corrumpituren den baten vkaiteagatic: baina guc corrumpituren eztenagatic.
Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a wreath that is perishable, but we do it to receive one that is imperishable.
26 Nic bada hala laster eguiten dut, ez eztaquidala nola: hala bataillatzen naiz, ez aireari baneraunsa beçala.
Therefore I do not run without purpose or box by beating the air.
27 Baina gaztigatzen dut neure gorputza, eta suiectionetara erekarten: eceinere maneraz bercey, predicatu ondoan, neuror reprobatu eriden eznadinçát.
But I subdue my body and make it a slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself may not be disqualified.
