1 Korintoarrei 1

1 Paulec Iaincoaren vorondatez Iesus Christen Apostolu içatera deithuac, eta gure anaye Sosthenesec,

To the church of God in Corinth, to those who have been consecrated by union with Christ Jesus and called to become his people, and also to all, wherever they may be, who invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ – their Master and ours,

2 Iaincoaren Eliça Corinthen denari, Iesus Christez sanctificatuey, saindu içatera deithuey, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren icena leku orotan inuocatzen duten guciequin, cein baita, hambat hayén nola gure Iaun:

from Paul, who has been called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and from Sosthenes, our fellow follower of the Lord.

3 Gratia dela çuequin eta baquea gure Iainco Aitaganic, eta Iesus Christ Iaunaganic.

May God, our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.

4 Esquerrac emaiten drauzquiót neure Iaincoari bethi çueçaz, Iesus Christ Iaunean çuey eman içan çaiçuen Iaincoaren gratiagatic:

I always thank God for you. I thank him for the blessing bestowed on you in Christ Jesus.

5 Ceren gauça gucietan abrastu içan baitzarete hartan, eloquentia eta eçagutze gucian:

For through union with him you were enriched in every way – in your power to preach, and in your knowledge of the truth;

6 Iesus Christen testimoniage çuetan confirmatu içan denaren araura:

and so became yourselves a confirmation of my testimony to the Christ.

7 Hala non ezpaitzarete falta eceinere dohainen, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren reuelationearen beguira çaudetela.

There is no gift in which you are deficient, while waiting for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.

8 Ceinec confirmaturen-ere baitzaituztéz finerano irreprehensible içateco Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren egunecotzat.

And God himself will strengthen you to the end, so that at the day of our Lord Jesus Christ you may be found blameless.

9 Fidel da Iaincoa ceinez deithu içan baitzarete Iesus Christ haren Seme gure Iaunaren communionera.

God will not fail you, and it is he who called you into communion with his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

10 Bada othoitz eguiten drauçuet anayeác, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren icenaz, gauça berbat erran deçaçuen guciéc, eta eztén çuen artean targoaric: baina çareten iunctatuac adimendu batetan eta gogo batetan.

But I appeal to you, my friends, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree in what you profess, and not to allow divisions to exist among you, but to be united – of one mind and of one opinion.

11 Ecen, ene anayeác, declaratu draudate çueçaz Chloes baithacoéc, ecen discordiác diradela çuen artean.

For I have been informed, my friends, by the members of Chloe’s household, that party feeling exists among you.

12 Bada haur diot, ecen çuetaric batbederac erraiten duela, Ni behinçát Paulen naiz, eta ni Apolloren, eta ni Cephasen, eta ni Christen.

I mean this: that every one of you says either ‘I follow Paul,’ or ‘I Apollos,’ or ‘I Cephas,’ or ‘I Christ.’

13 Ala çathitua da Christ? Ala Paul crucificatu içan da çuengatic, edo Paulen icenean batheyatu içan çarete?

You have torn the Christ in pieces! Was it Paul who was crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

14 Esquerrac emaiten drauzquiot Iaincoari ceren ezpaitut çuetaric nehor batheyatu, Crispo eta Gaio baicen:

I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,

15 Nehorc erran ezteçan ecen neure icenean batheyatzen ariçan naicela.

so that no one can say that you were baptized in my name.

16 Batheiatu vkan dut Estebenen familia-ere: gaineracoz eztaquit berceric batre batheyatu vkan dudanez.

I baptized also the household of Stephanas. I do not know that I baptized anyone else.

17 Ecen eznau igorri Christec batheyatzera, baina euangelizatzera: ez hitzezco çuhurtziatan, Christen crutzea ezdeusetara eztadinçát.

My mission from Christ was not to baptize, but to tell the good news; not, however, in the language of philosophy, in case the cross of the Christ should be robbed of its meaning.

18 Ecen crutzezco hitza, galtzen diradeney behinçát, erhogoa çaye: baina guri saluatzen garenoy, Iainçoaren verthute da.

The message of the cross is indeed mere folly to those who are on the path to ruin, but to us who are on the path of salvation it is the power of God.

19 Ecen scribatua da, Galduren dut çuhurren çuhurtziá, eta adituén adimendua kenduren dut.

For scripture says – ‘I will bring the philosophy of the philosophers to naught, and the shrewdness of the shrewd I will bring to nothing.’

20 Non da çuhurra? non da Scriba? non da secula hunetaco disputaria? eztu erho eguin Iaincoac mundu hunetaco sapientia? (aiōn g165)

Where is the philosopher? Where the teacher of the Law? Where the disputant of today? Has not God shown the world’s philosophy to be folly? (aiōn g165)

21 Ecen Iaincoaren sapientian munduac Iaincoa eçagutu eztuenaz gueroz haren sapientiatic, Iaincoaren placera içan da predicationearen erhogoaz sinhesten dutenén saluatzera.

For since the world, in God’s wisdom, did not by its philosophy learn to know God, God saw fit, by the ‘folly’ of our proclamation, to save those who believe in Christ!

22 Ecen Iuduac-ere signo esquez daude, eta Grecoéc sapientia bilhatzen duté:

While Jews ask for miraculous signs, and Greeks study philosophy,

23 Baina guçaz den becembatean predicatzen dugu Christ crucificatua, Iuduey behinçát scandalo, eta Grecoey erhogoa çayena.

we are proclaiming Christ crucified! – to the Jews an obstacle, to the Gentiles mere folly,

24 Baina deithu diradeney hambat Iuduey nola Grecoey predicatzen drauegu Christ Iaincoaren verthutea eta Iaincoaren sapientiá.

but to those who have received the call, whether Jews or Greeks, Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God!

25 Ecen Iaincoaren erhogoá guiçonac baino çuhurrago da: eta Iaincoaren flaqueçá guiçonac baino borthitzago da.

For God’s ‘folly’ is wiser than people, and God’s ‘weakness’ is stronger than people.

26 Ecen badacussaçue çuen vocationea, anayéac, ecen etzaretela çuhurrac anhitz haraguiaren arauez, ez borthitzac anhitz, ez nobleac anhitz.

Look at the facts of your call, friends. There are not many among you who are wise, as people reckon wisdom, not many who are influential, not many who are high-born;

27 Baina munduco gauça erho diradenac elegitu vkan ditu Iaincoac confundi ditzançát çuhurrac: eta munduco gauça flaccu diradenac elegitu vkan ditu Iaincoac confundi ditzançát gauça borthitzac:

but God chose what the world counts foolish to put its wise to shame, and God chose what the world counts weak to put its strong to shame,

28 Eta munduco gauça noble eztiradenac, eta menospreciatuac elegitu vkan ditu Iaincoac, eta gauça eztiradenac, diradenac deseguin ditzançát

and God chose what the world counts poor and insignificant – things that to it are unreal – to bring its ‘realities’ to nothing,

29 Glorifica eztadinçat haraguiric batre haren aitzinean.

so that in his presence no one should boast.

30 Baina harenganic çuec çarete Iesus Christean, cein eguin içan baitzaicu Iaincoaz sapientia eta iustitia eta sanctificatione eta redemptione:

But you, by your union with Christ Jesus, belong to God; and Christ, by God’s will, became not only our wisdom, but also our righteousness, holiness, and deliverance,

31 Scribatua den beçala, Gloriatzen dena, Iaunean gloria dadinçát.

so that – in the words of scripture – ‘Whoever boasts should boast of the Lord!’
