1 Korintos 14
1 Jacaylka raaca, oo weliba hadiyadaha Ruuxa ka yimaada aad u doona, oo siiba doona inaad wax sii sheegtaan.
Seek this love earnestly, and strive for spiritual gifts, above all for the gift of preaching.
2 Waayo, kii af uusan aqoon ku hadlaa, lama hadlo dadka, wuxuuse la hadlaa Ilaah, waayo, ninna ma garto; laakiin Ruuxa ayaa waxyaalaha qarsoon kaga dhex hadliya.
The person who, when speaking, uses the gift of “tongues” is speaking, not to people, but to God, for no one understands them; yet in spirit they are speaking of hidden truths.
3 Laakiin kii wax sii sheegaa wuxuu dadka kula hadlaa hadallo wax dhisa oo gargaar iyo qalbiqaboojis leh.
But those who preach are speaking to their fellow men and women words that will build up faith, and give them comfort and encouragement.
4 Kii af uusan aqoon ku hadlaa wuu isdhisaa, laakiin kii wax sii sheegaa wuxuu dhisaa kiniisadda.
Those who, when speaking, use the gift of “tongues” builds up their own faith, while those who preach build up the faith of the church.
5 Waxaan jeclaan lahaa inaad dhammaantiin afaf ku wada hadashaan, laakiin waxaan ka sii jeclaan lahaa inaad wax sii sheegtaan. Kii afaf ku hadlaa hadduusan fasirin, waxaa ka sii weyn kii wax sii sheega, si ay kiniisaddu u hesho wax ay ku dhisanto.
Now I want you all to speak in “tongues,” but much more I wish that you should preach. A preacher is worth more than one who speaks in “tongues,” unless they interprets their words, so that the faith of the church may be built up.
6 Laakiin hadda, walaalayaalow, haddaan idiin imaado, anigoo afaf ku hadlaya, maxaan idiin tari doonaa, haddaanan idinkula hadlin muujin ama aqoon ama wax sii sheegid ama waxbarid?
This being so, friends, what good will I do you, if I come to you and speak in “tongues,” unless my words convey some revelation, or knowledge, or take the form of preaching or teaching?
7 Xataa waxyaalo aan naf lahayni markay dhawaaqaan, ha ahaadeen ama biibiile ama kataarad, haddaanay dhawaaqa kala soocin, sidee baa loo kala garanayaa waxa la yeedhiyo ama waxa kataaradda laga dhawaajiyo?
Even with inanimate things, such as a flute or a harp, though they produce sounds, yet unless the notes are quite distinct, how can the tune played on the flute or the harp be recognised?
8 Hadduu buunku ku dhawaaqo cod aan la kala garan, yaa dagaal isu diyaargarayn doona?
If the bugle sounds a doubtful call, who will prepare for battle?
9 Sidaasoo kalena idinku markaad af ku hadashaan haddaydnan ku hadlin hadal la garto, sidee baa loo garanayaa waxa lagu hadlayo? Waayo, dabayshaad la hadlaysaan.
And so with you; unless, in using the gift of “tongues,” you utter intelligible words, how can what you say be understood? You will be speaking to the winds!
10 Mindhaa waxaa dunida jira codad badan oo kala cayn ah, oo mid aan micne lahayni ma jiro.
There are, for instance, a certain number of different languages in the world, and not one of them fails to convey meaning.
11 Haddaba haddaanan garanaynin micnaha codka, waxaan kii hadlaya u ahaan doonaa nin qalaad, kan hadlayaana nin qalaad ayuu ii ahaan doonaa.
If, however, I do not happen to know the language, I will be a foreigner to those who speak it, and they will be foreigners to me.
12 Sidaasoo kale idinkuna, idinkoo ku kulul hadiyadaha ruuxa, aad u dadaala inaad hadiyado badan u lahaataan kiniisadda dhisniinteeda.
And so with you; since you are striving for spiritual gifts, be eager to excel in such as will build up the faith of the church.
13 Sidaa daraaddeed kii af ku hadlaa, Ilaah ha ka baryo si uu u fasiro.
Therefore anyone who, when speaking, uses the gift of “tongues” should pray for ability to interpret them.
14 Waayo, haddaan Ilaah af aanan oqoon ku baryo, ruuxayga ayaa barya, laakiin garashadaydu faa'iido ma leh.
If, when praying, I use the gift of “tongues,” my spirit indeed prays, but my mind is a blank.
15 Maxaa jira haddaba? Ruuxa ayaan Ilaah ku baryi doonaa, laakiin waxaan kaloo isaga ku baryi doonaa garashada. Ruuxa ayaan ku heesi doonaa, oo garashadana waan ku heesi doonaa.
What, then, is my conclusion? Simply this – I will pray with my spirit, but with my mind as well; I will sing with my spirit, but with my mind as well.
16 Haddii kale haddaad ruuxa ku ducaysid, kii meesha jooga oo aan garanaynin, sidee buu u odhan doonaa, Aamiin, markaad mahadnaqaysid, hadduusan garanaynin waxaad leedahay?
If you bless God with your spirit only, how can people in the congregation who are without your gift say “Amen” to your thanksgiving? They do not know what you are saying!
17 Si wanaagsan baad u mahadnaqdaa, laakiin kan kale ma dhisna.
Your thanksgiving may be excellent, but the other is not helped by it.
18 Waxaan Ilaah ugu mahadnaqayaa inaan afaf ku hadlo intaad dhammaantiin ku hadashaan in ka badan,
Thank God, I use the gift of “tongues” more than any of you.
19 laakiin kiniisadda dhexdeeda, meeshii aan toban kun oo eray af kaga hadli lahaa, waxaan ka jeclaan lahaa inaan shan eray garashadayda ku hadlo inaan kuwa kalena wax baro.
But at a meeting of the church I would rather speak five words with my mind, and so teach others, than ten thousand words when using the gift of “tongues.”
20 Walaalayaalow, carruur ha ka noqonina xagga maanka, xagga xumaantase dhallaan ka ahaada, laakiin xagga maanka dad waaweyn ka ahaada.
My friends, do not show yourselves children in understanding. In wickedness be infants, but in understanding show yourselves adults.
21 Waxaa sharciga ku qoran, Waxaan dadkan kula hadli doonaa afaf qalaad iyo bushimo dad kale, oo xataa sidaa daraaddeed ima maqli doonaan, ayuu Rabbigu leeyahay.
It is said in the Law – “In strange tongues and by the lips of strangers will I speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to me, says the Lord.”
22 Haddaba afafku calaamo uma aha kuwa rumaysta ee waxay calaamo u yihiin kuwa aan rumaysan, wax sii sheegidduse calaamo uma aha kuwa aan rumaysan, laakiin waxay calaamo u tahay kuwa rumaysta.
Therefore the gift of the “tongues” is intended as a sign, not for those who believe in Christ, but for those who do not, while the gift of preaching is intended as a sign, not for those who do not believe in Christ, but for those who do.
23 Haddaba haddii kiniisadda oo dhammu isu timaado, oo ay ku wada hadlaan afaf, oo haddii dad aan garanaynin ama aan rumaysanayni soo galaan, miyaanay odhanaynin, Waad waalan tihiin?
So, when the whole church meets, if all present use the gift of “tongues,” and some people who are without the gift, or who are unbelievers, come in, will not they say that you are mad?
24 Laakiin hadday dhammaantood wax sii sheegaan oo uu u yimaado mid aan rumaysanayn ama aan garanaynini, isaga waa la wada canaantaa, oo la wada xukumaa.
While, if all those present use the gift of preaching, and an unbeliever, or someone without the gift, comes in, they are convinced of their sinfulness by them all, they are called to account by them all;
25 Waxyaalaha qarsoon ee qalbigiisa waa la muujiyaa, oo taa aawadeed wejigiisuu u dhici doonaa oo Ilaah ayuu caabudi doonaa isagoo odhanaya, Runtii Ilaah waa idin dhex joogaa.
the secrets of their heart are revealed, and then, throwing themselves on their face, they will worship God, and declare “God is indeed among you!”
26 Maxaa jira haddaba, walaalayaalow? Markaad isu timaadaan, mid kasta hees sabuur ah buu leeyahay, midna waxbarid buu leeyahay, midna muujin buu leeyahay, midna af buu leeyahay, midna fasiraad buu leeyahay. Wax walba ha loo sameeyo dhisniin.
What do I suggest, then, friends? Whenever you meet for worship, each of you comes, either with a hymn, or a lesson, or a revelation, or the gift of “tongues,” or the interpretation of them; let everything be directed to the building up of faith.
27 Haddii nin uun af ku hadlo, ha ahaadeen laba, ama hadday u bataan, saddex, oo midba markiisa ha hadlo, midna ha fasiro,
If any of you use the gift of “tongues,” not more than two, or at the most three, should do so – each speaking in his turn – and someone should interpret them.
28 laakiin haddaan mid fasiraa jirin, kiniisadda ha ka aamusnaado, oo isagu ha la hadlo qudhiisa iyo Ilaah.
If there is no one able to interpret what is said, they should remain silent at the meeting of the church, and speak to themselves and to God.
29 Nebiyadana laba ama saddex ha hadleen, kuwa kalena ha kala xukumeen waxay leeyihiin.
Of preachers two or three should speak, and the rest should weigh well what is said.
30 Laakiin haddii wax loo muujiyo mid ag fadhiya, kii hore ha aamuso.
But, if some revelation is made to another person as he sits there, the first speaker should stop.
31 Waayo, dhammaantiin mid mid baad wax u sii wada sheegi kartaan, si ay dhammaan wax u bartaan oo dhammaan loogu wada gargaaro.
For you can all preach in turn, so that all may learn some lesson and all receive encouragement.
32 Oo ruuxyada nebiyadu waa ka dambeeyaan nebiyada.
(The spirit that moves the preachers is within the preachers’ control;
33 Waayo, Ilaah ma aha Ilaaha iskuqasnaanta, laakiin waa kan nabadda. Kiniisadaha quduusiinta oo dhan dhexdoodana waa sidaas oo kale.
for God is not a God of disorder, but of peace.) This custom prevails in all the churches of Christ’s people.
34 Dumarku markay kiniisadaha joogaan ha aamuseen, waayo, looma fasixin inay hadlaan; laakiin ha dambeeyeen, sida uu sharcigu leeyahay.
At the meetings of the church married women should remain silent, for they are not allowed to speak in public; they should take a subordinate place, as the Law itself directs.
35 Hadday doonayaan inay wax bartaan, nimankooda ha ku weyddiiyeen guriga, maxaa yeelay, waa ku ceeb naag inay kiniisadda dhexdeeda ku hadasho.
If they want information on any point, they should ask their husbands about it at home; for it is unbecoming for a married woman to speak at a meeting of the church.
36 Maxaa jira! Ma idinkay ahaayeen kuwii uu ereyga Ilaah ka soo baxay, mise keligiin buu idiin yimid?
What! Did God’s message to the world originate with you? Or did it find its way to none but you?
37 Nin uun hadduu isu maleeyo inuu nebi yahay, ama mid Ruuxa raaca, ha garto waxyaalahaan idiin soo qorayo inay yihiin qaynuunka Rabbiga.
If anyone thinks that he has the gift of preaching or any other spiritual gift, he should recognise that what I am now saying to you is a command from the Lord.
38 Nin uuni hadduusan ogayn tan, isagana lama yaqaan.
Anyone who ignores it may be ignored.
39 Taa aawadeed, walaalahayow, ku dadaala inaad wax sii sheegtaan, hana diidina in afaf lagu hadlo,
Therefore, my friends, strive for the gift of preaching, and yet do not forbid speaking in “tongues.”
40 laakiin wax walba ha loo sameeyo si habboon oo hagaagsan.
Let everything be done in a proper and orderly manner.
