< 1 Corinthians 8 >

1 Now concerning the things offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth;
Leleꞌ ia, au ae olaꞌ soꞌal sisi fo atahori songgo-tanggu rendiꞌ a. Basa nggita tahine naeꞌ ena, soꞌal dalaꞌ ia ra. Salan, mete ma atahori nahine naeꞌ, na ana koao, huu ana duꞌa nae eni mahineꞌ lenaꞌ atahori laen ra. Malole lenaꞌ ata sue-lai to atahori laen ra. Huu naa mana tao fee basa atahori dadꞌi madꞌere fo bisa raꞌatataaꞌ rala dooꞌ.
2 if any one think that he knoweth anything, he knoweth nothing yet, as he ought to know;
Mete ma hambu atahori nae eni nahine ena, naa natudꞌu oi, eni mahinen nda feꞌe dai sa.
3 but if any one love God, the same is known by Him.
Te mete ma hambu atahori sue Lamatualain, Lamatualain nahine eni ena. Naaꞌ fo pantin.
4 Concerning the eating of the things offered in sacrifice to idols, then, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.
Dadꞌi mete ma atahori esa naa nita sisi sosonggoꞌ, basa nggita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, sudꞌiꞌ a saa sosonggoꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia, naa nda Lamatualain matetuꞌ sa. Huu tahine tae, “Hambu akaꞌ Lamatualain esa fo matetuꞌ.” ma, “basa sudꞌiꞌ a saa sosonggoꞌ fo atahori beꞌutee mbaliꞌ a, nda naꞌena sosoan saa sa boe.”
5 For though there are those that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;
Hambu sudꞌiꞌ a saa hetar sia lalai no raefafoꞌ ia atahori rafadꞌe rae, ‘lamatuaꞌ’ do ‘malangga’.
6 yet to us there is but one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we to him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
Te soaꞌ neu hita, Lamatualain akaꞌ esaꞌ a. Eni, hita Ama na. Basa-bꞌasaꞌ e raꞌoka sia E. Hita tao basaꞌ e fee neu E. Boe ma hita Lamatuan mana naꞌena hak parenda nggita, akaꞌ esaꞌ a. Naeni, Yesus Kristus. Lamatualain pake Yesus, leleꞌ Ana tao basa-bꞌasaꞌ e. Boe ma hambu tasodꞌa, huu Yesus mana fee nggita tasodꞌa.
7 But there is not in all men this knowledge; for some, with a conscience directed toward the idol even now, eat of it as a thing offered in sacrifice to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
Te hambu atahori nda rahine dalaꞌ naa ra sa. Ara feꞌe duꞌa rakandooꞌ a soꞌal sudꞌiꞌ a saa sosonggo nara, onaꞌ dalahulun ara parna dudꞌuꞌa. Naeni de, leleꞌ ara raa sisi fo atahori parna songgo rendiꞌ, ara duꞌa rae, “Nanaat ia dadꞌi tutunu-hohotuꞌ fo songgo rendiꞌ ena! Mete ma au ua sudꞌiꞌ a saa ia ra, na au feꞌe nenepaꞌaꞌ o dalaꞌ deꞌulakaꞌ ra!” Dadꞌi naa mana tao nalutu dudꞌuꞌa nara, losa ara nda bisa dudꞌuꞌa matetuꞌ sa ena, huu rala nara nda beꞌi sa.
8 But food will not recommend us to God; if we do not eat, we are not the worse; nor if we do eat, are we the better.
Eni netehuun saa? Nanaat nda bisa nendi nggita teu tisiꞌ Lamatualain matan sa, to? Mete ma nda taa sa, hita nda bau deꞌulaka sa. Boe ma mete ma taa, nda tao nggita dadꞌi atahori maloleꞌ sa boe, to?
9 But take heed, lest this liberty of yours become a stumbling-block to the weak.
Te besa-bꞌesa, o! Itaꞌ mae muꞌena hak fo tao dalaꞌ esa o, tantu naa nda feꞌe dadꞌi maloleꞌ fee neu nggo sa. Onaꞌ hambu toronooꞌ atahori mamahereꞌ esa ralan nda beꞌi sa, de mete ma nita nggo tao dalaꞌ naa, basa ma ana naꞌatunu, na, naa nda maloleꞌ sa!
10 For if any one see thee, who hast knowledge, at table in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him that is weak be emboldened to eat the things offered to idols?
Ho bubꞌuluꞌ aom dalaꞌ naa nda dadꞌi neu saa sa boe. Te mete ma hambu toronoom atahori mamahereꞌ ralan nda beꞌi sa, nita nggo endoꞌ mua sia ume sosonggoꞌ a rala, dei fo ana nae saa? Tantu ana duꞌa nae naa nanaa sosonggoꞌ o nda dadꞌi soꞌal soaꞌ nema eni sa boe, itaꞌ mae ara songgo rendiꞌ.
11 For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, —the brother for whom Christ died!
Muhine dalaꞌ hetar ena. Te mete ma ho tao taꞌo naa, tao mulutu atahori fo ralan nda beꞌi sa. Ma atahori naa, ho toronoo atahori mamahere ma. Kristus o mate soaꞌ neu e boe!
12 But when ye so sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
Malole lenaꞌ duꞌa taꞌo ia: mete ma ho tao toronoom fo ralan nda mana beꞌiꞌ a sa, tao dalaꞌ esa fo rae naa sala, na ho tao musalaꞌ neu se ena. Ma tao musalaꞌ neu Kristus ena boe.
13 Wherefore, if food cause my brother to fall, I will eat no flesh for ever, lest I cause my brother to fall. Am I not free? (aiōn g165)
Dadꞌi mete ma au ua sudꞌiꞌ a saa fo mana tao toronoo ngga atahori mamahereꞌ ra tudꞌa salaꞌ, na malole lenaꞌ au afiꞌ ua sisi mataꞌ naa. Mae losa babꞌasan o onaꞌ leo. Huu au nda nau fo ara tudꞌa salaꞌ rala reu sa. (aiōn g165)
