1 Corinthians 11
1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
Kri hnukbang kami ah ka oh baktih toengah, nangcae doeh ka hnukah bang oh.
2 Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
Nawkamyanawk, hmuen boih ah kai nang panoek o poe moe, kang paek o ih patukhaihnawk na patawnh o poe thai pongah, kang pakoeh o.
3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
Toe nongpanawk boih ih lu loe Kri ni; nongpata ih lu loe nongpa ni; Kri ih lu loe Sithaw ni, tito na panoek o han ka koehhaih oh.
4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
Lawkthuih naah maw, to tih ai boeh loe lok taphong naah maw, lu khuk nongpa loe angmah ih lu khingya ai kami ni.
5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
To tiah lawkthuih naah maw, to tih ai boeh loe lok taphong naah maw, lu khuk ai nongpata loe a lu khingya ai kami ah oh: lu angmuilum ah sam aah hoiah ni anghmong.
6 For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered.
Lu khuk ai nongpata loe sam to aat ngala nasoe, toe sam to aah moe, lu angmuilum ah sam aah loe nongpata maeto hanah azat thoh parai tiah poek nahaeloe, lu to khuk nasoe.
7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
Nongpa loe Sithaw ih krang hoi lensawkhaih ah oh pongah, lu khuk han om ai, nongpata loe nongpa lensawkhaih ah ni oh.
8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
Nongpa loe nongpata thung hoiah tacawt ai, toe nongpata loe nongpa thung hoiah ni tacawt.
9 for man wasn’t created for the woman, but woman for the man.
Nongpa loe nongpata han ih sah ai, toe nongpata loe nongpa han ih ni sak.
10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.
To tiah oh pong khue na ai, van kaminawk pongah, nongpata loe a lu nuiah sak thaihaih tawnh, tito amtuengsak hanah, lu khuk han oh.
11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
Toe Angraeng ah, nongpata loe nongpa ai ah om thai ai, nongpa doeh nongpata ai ah loe om thai ai.
12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
Nongpata loe nongpa thung hoiah tacawt baktih toengah, nongpa doeh nongpata thung hoiah ni tacawt; toe hmuennawk boih loe Sithaw khae hoiah tacawt.
13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
To pongah nongpata mah lu khuk ai ah Sithaw khaeah lawkthuih loe khet amcuk maw? Tito poek o noek ah.
14 Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
Sam patlung nongpa loe angmah hanah azat thoh, tito long khosakhaih dan mah panoekhaih na paek o ai maw?
15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
Toe sam patlung nongpata loe angmah lensawkhaih ah oh: a lu khuk han ih ni kasawk sam to anih hanah paek.
16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.
Toe lok angaek han koeh kami om nahaeloe, kaicae loe to baktih khosakhaih atawk ka tawn o ai, Sithaw kricaabunawk mah doeh tawn o ai, tiah thuih han ka koeh.
17 But in giving you this command I don’t praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.
Nangcae nwnto nam khueng o naah hoih kuehaih om ai, set aephaih ni oh lat, to pongah hae thuitaekhaih lok kang paek o naah, nangcae to ka pakoeh thai ai.
18 For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
Hmaloe koekah, bokhaih im ah nawnto nam khueng o naah, nangcae thungah abu ampraekhaih oh ti, tiah ka thaih; to lok loe tangtang mue, tiah ka poek.
19 For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you.
Nangcae salakah Sithaw mah tapom ih kami to amtueng thai hanah, maeto hoi maeto lok angaekhaih loe kaom han ih hmuen roe ni.
20 When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat.
To pongah ahmuen maeto ah nawnto nam khueng o naah, Angraeng ih buhcaak hanah nam khueng o ai.
21 For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken.
Duembuh na caak o naah, kami boih mah minawk pha ai naah angmah hanah buh to lak moe a caak o: kami maeto zok amthlam naah, kalah maeto loe mu paquih boeh.
22 What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.
Caak naekhaih im na tawn o ai maw? To tih ai boeh loe Sithaw kricaabu to na patoek o moe, tidoeh tawn ai kaminawk to azat na paw o sak maw? Nangcae khaeah timaw ka thuih han? Hae hmuen pongah kang pakoeh o han maw? Kang pakoeh o thai mak ai.
23 For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread.
Kang thuih o ih lok loe Sithaw khae hoi ka hnuk ih lok ni, Angraeng Jesu mah Anih angphat taakhaih duembangah takaw to lak;
24 When he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me.”
kawnhaih lawk a thuih pacoengah, takaw to a aeh moe, Hae takaw loe nangcae han kamro ka taksa ni, La ah loe caa oh: Kai nang panoek o poe hanah hae tiah sah oh, tiah a naa.
25 In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”
Takaw caak pacoengah, Anih mah boengloeng doeh lak moe, Hae loe ka thii hoiah sak ih lokmaihaih kangtha ah oh: na naek o naah, Kai nang panoek o poe hanah, hae tiah sah oh, tiah a naa.
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
Hae takaw na caak o moe, hae boengloeng na naek o kruek, Anih angzoh karoek to, Angraeng duekhaih kawng taphong kami ah ni na oh o.
27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh caak han krah ai ah hae Angraeng ih takaw hae caa moe, naek han krah ai ah hae boengloeng hae nae kami loe, Angraeng ih takpum hoi athii zae haih kami ah om tih.
28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.
To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh angmah hoi angmah angcaek pacoengah, to takaw to caa nasoe loe, boengloeng to nae nasoe.
29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body.
Kamcuk ai ah caa moe, nae kami loe, Angraeng ih takpum panoekhaih tawn ai pongah, angmah hoi angmah lokcaek han ih ni a caak moe, a naek.
30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.
To tiah oh pongah ni nangcae salakah kaom paroeai kaminawk nuiah thazokhaih hoi ngannathaih to oh moe, pop parai kaminawk to duek o.
31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn’t be judged.
Aimacae hoi aimacae kahoihah angcaek o nahaeloe, lokcaekhaih om mak ai.
32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
Toe aicae mah lokcaekhaih a tongh o naah, long kaminawk hoi nawnto lokcaekhaih a tongh o han ai ah, Angraeng mah thuitaekhaih to a zok o.
33 Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
To pongah, nawkamyanawk, caak han nawnto nam khueng o naah, maeto hoi maeto ang zing oh.
34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.
Mi kawbaktih doeh zok amthlam nahaeloe, angmah im ah caa nasoe; to tih ai nahaeloe nawnto nam khueng o naah lokcaekhaih na tong o lat moeng tih. Kalah hmuennawk loe kang zoh naah karaemah ka sak han hmang.
