1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, [a] called apostle of Jesus Christ, by God's will, and Sosthenes the brother,
I Paoly, kinanjy ho Firàhe’ Iesoà Norizañey ami’ty satrin’ arofon’ Añahare, naho i Sostena rahalahy.
2 to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, to [those] sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all that in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:
Ho ami’ty Fivorin’ Añahare e Korinto añe, ho amo nampiavahe’ Iesoà Norizañeio, o kinanjy ho noro’eo, miharo amy ze hene mpikanjy ty tahina’ Iesoà Talèntika Norizañey ndra aia aia, i Talè’ iareo naho antikañey.
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
Hasoa ama’ areo naho fañanitsiñe boak’ aman’ Añahare Raen-tika naho Iesoà Talè Norizañey.
4 I thank my God always about you, in respect of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus;
Andriañeko nainai’e t’i Andrianañahareko ty ama’ areo, ty hasoan’ Añahare natolotse anahareo am’ Iesoà Norizañeiy,
5 that in everything ye have been enriched in him, in all word [of doctrine], and all knowledge,
ie ama’e ro niaboeñe amy ze lafi’e iaby an-tsara heneke naho an-kihitse fonitse,
6 (according as the testimony of the Christ has been confirmed in you, )
ie niventèñe ama’ areo ty fitaroñañe i Norizañey.
7 so that ye come short in no gift, awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Aa le tsy eo ty tsy eneñe ama’areo amo falalàñe iabio, hene rototse mitamà ty fiboaha’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañey.
8 who shall also confirm you to [the] end, unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ie ty hampijadoñe anahareo sikal’ am-pigadoña’e añe, tsy hanan-kila amy andro’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañeiy.
9 God [is] faithful, by whom ye have been called into [the] fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Migahiñe t’i Andrianañahare nikanjy anahareo ho amy fifampilongoañe amy Ana’e, Talèntika Iesoà Norizañeiy.
10 Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all say the same thing, and that there be not among you divisions; but that ye be perfectly united in the same mind and in the same opinion.
Ie amy zao, mañosike anahareo raho ry longo, amy tahina’ i Talèntika Iesoà Norizañeiy, ty hiharo saontsy, tsy hifampiriaria, f’ie ho fonireñe ho raike an-kilala naho raike an-tsafiry.
11 For it has been shewn to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of [the house of] Chloe, that there are strifes among you.
O ry longo, fa natalili’ o mpiamy Kloaio amako t’ie amam-pifandierañe;
12 But I speak of this, that each of you says, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.
ty anoako zao, le te ao ty manao ty hoe: mpiamy Paoly raho, le ty raike: amy Apolosy raho, naho ty raike: amy Kefasy raho, vaho ty ila’e: zaho amy Norizañey.
13 Is the Christ divided? has Paul been crucified for you? or have ye been baptised unto the name of Paul?
Aa vaho mitsiriaria hao i Norizañey? Pinèke ho anahareo hao t’i Paoly? He nalipotse ami’ty añara’ i Paoly?
14 I thank God that I have baptised none of you, unless Crispus and Gaius,
Andriañeko t’i Andrianañahare te tsy ia ama’ areo ty nalipoko naho tsy i Krispo naho i Gaio avao,
15 that no one may say that I have baptised unto my own name.
ke eo ty hanao ty hoe t’ie nilipotse ami’ty añarako.
16 Yes, I baptised also the house of Stephanas; for the rest I know not if I have baptised any other.
(Toe nalipoko ka o añ’anjomba’ i Stefanasio. Fa tsy apotako ze ila’e mete ho nampiliporeko.)
17 For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain.
Toe tsy nañitrik’ ahy handipotse i Norizañey, fa ty hitaroñe i talili-soay, tsy an-dreha-kante kera hampikoaheñe i hatae’ ajale’ i Norizañeiy.
18 For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God's power.
Toe borosode amo mikoromakeo ty tsara’ i hatae’ ajaley, fe haozaran’ Añahare amantika rombaheñeo.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and set aside the understanding of the understanding ones.
Fa hoe ty pinatetse: Ho rotsaheko ty hihi’ o mahihitseo, naho hakafitse ty hilala’ o mahilalao.
20 Where [is the] wise? where scribe? where disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
Aia ze o mahihitse zao? Aia ty mahay taratasy? Aia ty mpionim-piheotse ami’ty sa’ toy? Tsy nanoen’ Añahare hanèñe hao ty hilala’ ty tane toy? (aiōn g165)
21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.
Ie amy hihin’ Añaharey, kanao tsy nampahafohiñe an’ Andrianañahare ty hihi’ ty tane toy, le nisatrien’ Añahare ty handrombake ze mahafiantoke ami’ty hagegea’ i tsara taroñeñey.
22 Since Jews indeed ask for signs, and Greeks seek wisdom;
Toe mipay viloñe o Jiosio, naho mitsoe-kihitse o Grikao;
23 but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness;
fe mitaroñe i Norizañe pinèkey zahay: ie boloko fitsikapia’ o Jiosio, naho hadagolàñe amo Grikao;
24 but to those that [are] called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom.
fe amo kinanjio, he te Jiosy ke Grika, le ie ty haozaran’ Añahare naho ty hihin’ Añahare.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
Fa mahihitse te am’ondatio ty hagegean’ Añahare, naho maozatse te am’ondatio ty haifoifoan’ Añahare.
26 For consider your calling, brethren, that [there are] not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born.
Haraharao i nikanjiañe anahareoy: tsy nimaro ty nahihitse amo nofotseo, tsy nimaro ty fanalolahy, tsy niampeampe ty ana-donake.
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;
Fe jinobon’ Añahare o gege an-tane atoio hanalatse o mahilalao, naho jinobon’ Añahare o maifoifo’ ty tane toio hañameñatse o jomakeo;
28 and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has God chosen, [and] things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;
jinobon’ Añahare o tsy vara’ ty tane toio naho o mavoiñeo vaho o atao tsy vente’eo, hampikoaha’e o raha eoo,
29 so that no flesh should boast before God.
soa te tsy eo ty nofotse hirengevoke añatrefan’ Añahare.
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who has been made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption;
Ie ro maha am’ Iesoà Norizañey anahareo, Ie ty nanoan’ Añahare hihitse naho havantañañe naho fiavahañe vaho fijebañañe an-tika,
31 that according as it is written, He that boasts, let him boast in [the] Lord.
soa te, amy pinatetse ty hoe: Ze mirenge, Ee te i Talè ro firengea’e.
