1 Korontiyawa 1
1 Bulus Kwama cho che na ci yilam bwetomange ki chiyaka kwama kange yibe Sosthenes.
Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,
2 Fiye nob bwangka kwamako wiye mor Korontiya buro fiya chobka Kiristi Yesu ninneu kange burombo bi cho ki nubo wuchak gwam kange burombo fiye tinin wo chi choti ki den Kiristi Yesu wo yilam Teluwe che kange bou.
To the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours.
3 Nyo fwor nenert kange luma nakume fiye kwama tebe kange tehluwebe Yesu Kiristi.
Grace [be] to you, and peace from God our Father, and [from] the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Kang kang mi ne kwama buka kangeti dor kumer kange luma wo Kiristi Yesu ne kommeu.
I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;
5 Chon dokkom, kom yilam nub chweka mor fiye gwam, kange mor kere kange nyomanka diker gwam.
That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and [in] all knowledge;
6 nyo nawo tokki dur Kiristi yilam ki bichom bilenkeh more kume.
Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 Tano nyori buni neka yuwa tangbeko wuchak kumeneu, kwakkombo nawo kom chen yilaka tehbe Yesu almasiyatie.
So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 La nyori cham chukkom na kom ne bilenke yila na kom tim ki dika kale. Na kom yilam nubo man ki di tor bini cheu ki kakuk bouka tebe Yesu
Who will also confirm you to the end, [that ye may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 Kwama nii bilenke, wo cho kom mwor mwarkakka bi bweche Yesu Kiristi Teluwe be.
God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called to the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
10 Naweu mi kenkomti kebmi mwor den Yesu Kiristi wo gwam kume kom chiya chikeu nyo yaklangka dure a fiyare kumen min kenkomti kom mwer dur kume dume ner kumero a yilam win. ki dikero kom kwatiye. lo kulowi bou ki ker kume ki yalkangka dure wi mure kume.
Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind, and in the same judgment.
For it hath been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by them [who are of the house] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
12 Miki yi kange kume yiti ki mi na Bulus cheche kange ki mina Afolos che che, kange ken ki mina Kefas che che kakka mina Alamsiya che.
Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
13 Almasiya yalkang nyika? chin kul Bulus ker kumerka? kakka chi yu kumen mwembo ki den Bulus che ka?
Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
14 Min bukang kwama ma yubo kange kumenin mwem la Istifanus kange Gayus.
I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;
15 Mi ma wo Katti kange yiki chi yu chinen mwembo mwor den mir.
Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.
16 Min yu mwor luwe Istifanus chenin mwem kebo nyori ma nyombo keno min yu kange nin mwem di.
And I baptized also the household of Stephanas; besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
17 Nyo Almasiya tomyebo nan yu kumen mwem dila nan yi kom fulen keret be tomyebo na tok fulen kere ki nyomka bi bwe nifirek. La nyori katti kulka Almasiyako le liyar Bikwaner chero.
For Christ hath not sent me to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.
18 Dila nyori fulen kulka bwatiyeko kulum fiye nubo bwiyarangum me. La mwor brombo kwama cherchiye bikwan kwamar.
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish, foolishness; but to us who are saved, it is the power of God.
19 Nyo mulangum -mulange matan chitang nyomka nob nyomkawi man wom nyomka chiko, chi nob nyomkabo.
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
20 Ni Nyomka ki nofe? ni merangka ki nofe? ni bokake ki nofe? wo kale wo ninen. Kwama yilabo nyomka kalekowo na yilare kulendo che. (aiōn g165)
Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
21 No nyori kalewo mwor nyomka cheko nyombo kwama. La cho nyom kwama fiye kulen keret na cher nubo ne bilenkereu.
For when in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.
22 Nyori Yahudawa ki do diker nyimangka Helenawa ki do diker nyomka.
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek wisdom:
23 La nyori nyo ki tok fulen keret Almasiya wo chi kulken bwatiye bware. Ter kottangka fiye Yahudawa wiye lan kulen fiye Helenawawiye.
But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness;
24 La brombo kwama chowe yahudawa kange helenawa nyo ki tok ker almasiya ki bi kwan nyomka kwama.
But to them who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Kulen kwama ro la nyomka bibwe nifire kange buni bikwan kwamar la nifir ki bi kwan.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 Kom to Bichor kumero kebmibo, ke bo gwam kume ki nyomka mor nube, ke gwam kume wi ki bikwan liyare, kebo gwam kume chi bou na cha liyare.
For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble [are called]:
27 La nyo kwama chok dike yorbe fou kalewo, na ne nob nyomka kwenduwe kwama chok dike wo man ki kwanne fou kaleweu.
But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
28 Kwama chok dike bwiranye kange chinekangume fou kale wo chok dike chi tu kebo dikereu na cho chwikangum dike chiyi na kenne.
And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are:
29 Cho maworo katti kange fiya kung dur chero kabum chem.
That no flesh should glory in his presence.
30 La diker kwama ma nawonnyeu koom ki no mor almasiya Yesu wo yilam benen nyomka fiye kwama wiyeu.
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who from God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
31 Yilam nawo bifumero tokke, di nuwo chuk dor chertiye cha chuk dor chero mor Teh be
That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
