1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, as unto babes in Christ.
Nawkamyanawk, Muithla kaminawk khaeah thuih ih lok baktiah nangcae khaeah lok ka thui thai ai, toe taksa ah kaom kaminawk, Kri ah tahnu nae nawktanawk khaeah thuih ih lok baktiah ni kang thuih o.
2 I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able [to bear it]: nay, not even now are ye able;
Buh kaham na caa o thai ai pongah, buh ai ah tahnutui hoiah ni kang com o: vaihi doeh na caa o thai ai vop.
3 for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and do ye not walk after the manner of men?
Vaihi doeh taksa ah ni na oh o vop: nangcae salakah uthaih, angzoehhaih, ampraekhaihnawk to oh, taksa kami ah na oh o pongah na ai maw, taksa kaminawk baktiah kho na sak o?
4 For when one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not men?
Maeto mah, Kai loe Pawl ih kami ni, kalah maeto mah, kai loe Apollo ih kami ni, tiah na thuih o nathung long taksa ah kaom kami ah na ai maw na oh o vop?
5 What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? Ministers through whom ye believed; and each as the Lord gave to him.
Pawl loe mi aa, Apollo loe mi aa, nihnik loe Angraeng mah paek ih baktih toengah, tanghaih na tawnh o hanah toksah kami ah na ai maw a oh hoi?
6 I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
Kai mah patit, Apollo mah tui bawh; toe qoengsakkung loe Sithaw ni.
7 So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
To pongah qoengsakkung Sithaw ai ah loe, patii kami hoi tui bawh kami loe tidoeh na ai ni.
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.
Patii kami hoi tuipaek kami loe maeto ni: mi kawbaktih doeh a sak ih tok baktih toengah toksakhaih atho to hnu tih.
9 For we are God’s fellow-workers: ye are God’s husbandry, God’s building.
Aicae loe Sithaw hoi nawnto toksah kami ah a oh o: nangcae loe Sithaw toksakhaih ahmuen ah na oh o moe, Sithaw im ah ni na oh o.
10 According to the grace of God which was given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder I laid a foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let each man take heed how he buildeth thereon.
Kai khaeah paek ih Sithaw tahmenhaih baktih toengah, palungha im sahkung baktiah kai mah imhmuen to ka raemh, kalah kami mah to ahmuen ah im to sak. Toe to imhmuen nuiah kawbangmaw im a sak, tito kami boih mah acoe nasoe.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
Raemh tangcae imhmuen baktiah mi mah doeh kalah imhmuen to raemh thai mak ai boeh, to imhmuen loe Jesu Kri ni.
12 But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble;
Kami mah raemh tangcae imhmuen nuiah sui maw, sum kanglung maw, atho kana thlung maw, thing maw, caphaeh maw, phroh hoiah maw im to sah nahaeloe,
13 each man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man’s work of what sort it is.
amtuenghaih niah loe, kami boih mah sak ih tok to hmai hoiah amtuengsak tih; kami boih mah sak ih tok loe kawbaktih tok maw, tito hmai hoiah tanoekhaih to om tih.
14 If any man’s work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward.
Mi kawbaktih doeh Anih mah raemh tangcae imhmuen nuiah im sah nahaeloe, cak poe tih, to kami loe tangqum to hnu tih.
15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire.
Mi kawbaktih mah doeh a sak ih tok to hmai mah kangh pae ving nahaeloe, anih loe sung tih: toe hmai thung hoi loih baktih toengah, angmah to loe pahlonghaih hnu tih.
16 Know ye not that ye are a temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Nangcae loe Sithaw ih tempul ah na oh o, nangcae thungah Sithaw ih Muithla oh, tito na panoek o ai maw?
17 If any man destroyeth the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.
Mi kawbaktih doeh Sithaw ih tempul amhnongsak kami loe, Sithaw mah paro tih; Sithaw ih tempul loe ciimcai, to tempul loe nangcae ni.
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man thinketh that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise. (aiōn g165)
Mi kawbaktih doeh angmah hoi angmah angling hmah nasoe. Nangcae thungah kami maeto mah angmah hoi angmah kai loe hae long nuiah palungha kami ah ka oh, tiah poek nahaeloe, palungha kami ah a oh thai hanah, kamthu baktiah om nasoe. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He that taketh the wise in their craftiness:
Hae long nui palunghahaih loe Sithaw hmaa ah amthuhaih ah ni oh. Anih mah palungha kaminawk to angmacae palunghahaih hoiah naeh, tiah cabu thungah tarik ih oh.
20 and again, The Lord knoweth the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.
Angraeng mah, Palungha kaminawk ih poekhaih loe azom pui ni, tito panoek, tiah tarik ih o let bae vop.
21 Wherefore let no one glory in men. For all things are yours;
To pongah mi kawbaktih doeh kaminawk nuiah amoek hmah nasoe. Hmuen boih loe nangcae ih ni.
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
Paul maw, to tih ai boeh loe Apollo maw, to tih ai boeh loe Kipha maw, to tih ai boeh loe hae long maw, to tih ai boeh loe hinghaih maw, to tih ai boeh loe duekhaih maw, to tih ai boeh loe vaihi ah kaom hmuennawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe kaom han koi hmuennawk maw, hmuennawk boih loe nangcae ih ni;
23 and ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
nangcae loe Kri kami ah na oh o, Kri loe Sithaw ih ni.
