1 Corinthians 8
1 Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.
A kitail ajaer duen mairow on ani mal, pwe kitail karoj me lolekow. A lolekow eta kin kaaklapalapiela, a limpok kin kamauiela. wiaw. in. iu
2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.
A ma amen aklapalapaki a lolekon, nan a jota non dedeki duen me itar on en aja.
3 But if any any love God, the same is known by him.
A ma amen pok on Kot, nan Kot me mani i.
4 But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
A kitail dedekier duen mana uduk en mairon on ani mal akan, pwe ani mal amen jota katepa nin jappa, o jota amen Kot, pwe I me ta men.
5 For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many, and lords many).
Pwe ma akai mia, me adaneki kot, me kin mimi nanlaw de nin jappa, pwe kot toto o monjap toto mia;
6 Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
A atail Kot me ta men, me Jam, me dipijou karoj tapi jan re a, o me kitail wiaui on. O atail Kaun me ta men: Iejuj Krijtuj, me wiadar meakaroj, o me kitail pil wiaui kidar i.
7 But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
A kaidin karoj me aja mepukat, pwe akai mia, me lamelame, me ani mal meakot, ap kankan uduk en mairon on ani mal, o iei injen luet arail kin jamin kila.
8 But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
A kijin mana jota kin jauaja kitail ren Kot. Ma kitail jota pan mana, kitail jota pan jued kila, a ma kitail pan mana, kitail jota pan mau kila.
9 But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.
A kalaka komail, pwe omail jaladokalar ender kadipikelekel on me luet akan!
10 For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
Pwe ma koe, me aja tiak, ap manamana nan im en ani mal o, a me luet amen pan kilan om manamana, ap aima kida nan injen a, ap ian manamana mairon en ani mal akan,
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
Iduen ri atail luet amen, me Krijtuj mata kilar, pan mekila om jaladok.
12 Now when you sin thus against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
A ma iduen omail dip ion ri atail akan, me kin kawela injen luet arail, nan komail kin wia dip ion Krijtuj.
