1 Corinth 14
1 Nungsiba tallu, aduga thawaigi oiba khudolsing, thoidok hendokna Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpabu thawai yaona pamjou.
Labour after charity, and be desirous of spiritual gifts: but especially that ye may prophesy.
2 Khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba mahak aduna madu misingda ngangba natte adubu Tengban Mapudani, maramdi madu mi kana amatana khangde. Adum oinamak thawaigi mapanna mahakna athuppasing adu ngangbani.
For he, that speaketh in an unknown tongue, speaketh not to men, but to God: for no one understandeth, though in spirit he speaketh mysteries.
3 Adubu Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa makhoising aduna misingda ngangduna makhoibu panggal kalhanbi, pukning thougatpi amasung themjinbi.
But he, that prophesieth, speaketh edification, and exhortation, and comfort to men.
4 Khangdaba atoppa lon ngangbasing aduna makhoi masakhaktabu semgatli adubu Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa makhoising aduna singlup apumbabu semgatli.
He, that speaketh in an unknown tongue, edifieth himself: but he, that prophesieth, edifieth the church.
5 Nakhoi khudingmakna khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba adu eina pamjei; adubu nakhoida Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpagi khudol leiba aduna henna eina pamjei. Maramdi singlup semgatnabagidamak kanagumba amana lon handokpiba nattrabadi atoppa khangdaba lon ngangba mi adudagidi Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba mi aduna henna chao-i.
I could wish that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edification.
6 Maram aduna, nungsijaraba ichil-inaosing eina nakhoigi nanakta lakpa matamda eina khangdaba atoppa lon nganglaga nakhoigidamak ei kari kannapham leibage? Eina nakhoida Tengban Mapugi phongdokpiba khara nattraga lousing khara nattraga Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba nattraga tambiba purakpa nattrabadi nakhoida kari amata kanade.
Now, my brethren, if I come to you speaking with many tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak intelligibly to you of revelation, or knowledge, or prophecy, or doctrine?
7 Makhol thokpa, thawai yaodaba pot, haibadi bashi nattraga bina maknasu, tan kaina khonglabadi kari tanthano haiba kanana kamdouna khanggani?
As inanimate things which give a found, whether pipe or harp, unless they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall what is piped or harped be understood?
8 Peresingga khongbada sengna makhol thoktrabadi kanana langi thourang tougadage?
For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for the battle?
9 Matou asigumna, nakhoigi leina misingna khangba ngamba wa ngangba nattanadi nakhoina ngangliba adu karino haiba kanana khangba ngamgadage? Nakhoina madu arembada ngangba oigani.
So also unless ye utter by the tongue intelligible words, how shall what is spoken be understood? for thus ye will be only talking to the wind.
10 Malem asida tongan tonganba lon mayam ama lei, adumakpu makhoigi marakta wahandok leitaba lon-di amata leite.
There are, it may be, as many kinds of voices in the world as people, and none of them insignificant.
11 Adu oirabadi kanagumba amana ngangba lon amagi wahandok adu eina khangba ngamdrabadi, ngangliba mi adugi maphamda eihak mireibakki mi oirani aduga eigi iphamdana mahak mireibak macha amani.
But if I know not the force of the words, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian to me.
12 Nakhoina Thawaigi khudolsing adu khourangna pamjabagi maramna, pumnamakki mathakta singlup semgatpada mateng pangba khudolsing adubu henna sijinnanaba nakhoina hotnagadabani.
So ye also, since ye are so desirous of spiritual gifts, seek to abound in them to the edification of the church.
13 Maram asigidamak atoppa lon ngangba mahak aduna mahakna ngangliba adu handoknabagidamak Tengban Mapuda haijasanu.
Wherefore let him, that speaketh in an unknown tongue, pray that he may interpret.
14 Maramdi eina atoppa lon amada haijarabadi, madu eigi thawaina haijabani, adubu maduda eigi pukning wakhaldi saruk yade.
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit indeed prayeth, but my meaning is fruitless.
15 Adu oirabadi eina kari tougani? Eina eigi thawaina haijagani, aduga eigi pukningnasu haijagani; Eigi thawaina isei sakchagani, aduga eigi pukningnasu sakchagani.
What is then to be done? I will pray with the Spirit, but I will pray to be understood: I will sing with the spirit, but I will sing to be understood.
16 Nahakna Tengban Mapubu thagatchaba matamda nahakki thawaina khakta thagatlabadi, tinnaba aduda saruk yariba karisu khangdaba mising aduna nahakna Tengban Mapu thagatchabagi hairiba aduda “Amen” haina karamna haigani? Nahakna hairiba adu makhoina khangnabagi lambi suklei leite.
For if thou bless in the spirit, how shall the unlearned say Amen to thy thanksgiving, when he knoweth not what thou sayst?
17 Nahakki Tengban Mapubu thagatchabagi haijaba aduna yamna ningthijaba oirabaphaobada maduna atoppa masingbu semgatloi.
thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
18 Eina nakhoi pumnamaktagi henna khangdaba atoppa lonsing ngangbagidamak eina Tengban Mapubu thagatli.
I thank God, I speak with tongues more than you all.
19 Adubu singlup tinnaba matamda eina khangdaba londa wahei lising tara ngangbabudi atoppasingbu tambinabagidamak miyamna khangba ngamgadaba wahei manga ngangbana henna pamjei.
But in a public assembly I had rather speak five words to be understood, that I may instruct others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
20 Ichil-inaosa nakhoina anganggumna khanba toklo. Phattaba toubagi matangdadi angang oibiyu adubu wakhal khanbadadi ahal oibiyu.
My brethren, be not children in sense: but in malice be infants, and in your judgements shew yourselves to be men.
21 Mapugi Puyada asumna iduna lei, “Ibungona hai, atoppa lonsing ngangba misinggi mapanna, nganggani eina eigi misingda. Nganggani eina mireibakki chinbalgi mapanna, adubu madu phaobada, taroi makhoina eigi wa.”
It is written in the law, "By men of another language, and by other lips, will I speak to this people, and even so they will not listen to me, saith the Lord."
22 Adu oirabadi khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba haibasi khudamgidamakni, madu thajaba misinggidamak natte, adubu thajadaba-singgidamaktani. Adubu Tengban Mapugi wa takthokpa haibasina thajaba-singgidamaktani, thajadaba-singgidamakta natte.
So that tongues are for a sign, not to believers but to unbelievers: but prophecy not to unbelievers but to those that believe.
23 Maram aduna singlup apumbana tinnabada mipum khudingmakna khangdaba atoppa lon nganglabadi, karisu khangdaba nattraga thajadaba misingna changlakpada makhoina nakhoi pumnamak ngaore haina hairoidra?
If then the whole church be come together and all speak in unknown tongues, and there come in illiterate persons, or infidels, will they not say that ye are mad?
24 Adubu nakhoi pumnamakna Tengban Mapugi wa sandoktuna leiringeida kanagumba thajadaba nattraga karisu khangdaba mi amana changlaklabadi makhoina tariba aduna makhoigi pap khanghangani amasung makhoina taribasing aduna makhoibu wayengani,
But if all prophesy, and there come in an unbeliever, or one unlearned, he is convinced by all, he is judged by all.
25 Makhoigi aronba wakhal adu phongdokkani; aduga “Tasengnamak nakhoigi narak asida Tengban Mapu lei” haina haidokcharaga nonthajaduna Tengban Mapubu khurumjagani.
And thus the secrets of his heart are made manifest; so that falling down upon his face he will worship God, declaring that God is indeed among you.
26 Adunadi eikhoina kari haigani, ichil inaosa? Nakhoina Tengban Mapubu thagat-khurumjanabagidamak tinnaba matamda, amana thagat esei sakpa, amana tambiba, atoppa amana Tengban Mapugi phongdokpiba adu phongdokpa, atoppa amana khangdaba atoppa lon ngangba, aduga atoppa amana amuk hairiba adu handokpa nakhoi amamamna tou. Adubu pumnamak adu singlup adu semgatnaba oigadabani.
What is then to be done, my brethren? when ye come together, if any of you hath a psalm, a doctrine, a tongue, a revelation, an interpretation, ---let all be done for edification.
27 Nakhoina khangdaba atoppa lon nganglabadi, nakhoi ani nattraga ahumdagi hendana madu mathang manao naina ngangsanu, aduga ngangliba adu kanagumba amana handoksanu.
And if any one speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at most by three, and that by turns; and let one interpret.
28 Adubu madu handoknaba mi amata leitrabadi ngangliba mahak aduna singlupta tuminna leisanu amasung madu masa mathantada amadi Tengban Mapuda ngangjasanu.
But if there be no interpreter, let him be silent in the assembly; and let him speak to himself and to God.
29 Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa ani nattraga ahumna ngangsanu aduga ateising aduna makhoina hairiba adu chang yengjasanu.
And let but two or three of the prophets speak, and the others judge.
30 Adubu tinnaba aduda phamliba kanagumba amana Tengban Mapudagi paojel phangjarabadi, hanna ngangliba mahakna ngangba lepkadabani.
And if any thing be revealed to another sitting by, let the first have done speaking before the other begins.
31 Pumnamakna tamjanaba amadi pukning thougatpiba phangjanaba nakhoi pumnamakna amamam oina Tengban Mapugi wa adu phongdokpa yai.
For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
32 Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpagi khudol adu ngangliba mahakki makha polhangadabani.
And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets:
33 Maramdi Tengban Mapudi mawong maril naidabagi Mapu natte adubu ingthabagini. Aduga Tengban Mapugi misingna tinnaba khudingmakta toubagum,
for God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as we see in all the assemblies of the saints.
34 Singlup tinnabada nupisingna tuminna leisanu. Makhoida wa ngangbagi ayaba leite, adubu wayel yathangna haibagumna makhoina makha ponna leigadabani.
Let your women be silent in your assemblies: for it is not permitted to them to speak, but they are to be in subjection, as the law saith.
35 Makhoina karigumba amagi maramda khangning hangningba pamlabadi, makhoina mayumda masa masagi nupasingda hangsanu. Maramdi nupina singlup tinnaba matamda wa ngangba haibasi ikainingaini.
And if they would learn any thing, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it does not become women to speak in a public assembly.
36 Nattraga Tengban Mapugi wahei adu nangondagi lakpa oiribra? Nattraga madu lakkhiba adu nakhoikhaktadara?
Did the word of God come out first from you? or did it come to you only?
37 Kanagumbana mahak Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpa nattraga thawaigi khudol lei haina khanjarabadi, eina nakhoida iriba asi Ibungogi yathangni haiba adu mahakna khangsanu.
If any one seem to be a prophet, or acted by the Spirit, let him acknowlege that what I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.
38 Adubu masida mahakna thousadrabadi mahakpusu thaoiruganu.
But if any will be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
39 Maram aduna, ichil inaosa, Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpada pukning luppu, aduga atoppa lonsing ngangba thingganu.
Wherefore, my brethren, be most desirous to prophesy, and yet forbid not to speak with tongues:
40 Pumnamaksing asi ningthina amadi mathang manao naiba mawongda tougadabani.
but let all things be done decently and in order.
