1 Corinthians 11
1 [Follow my example], just like I [try to] follow Christ’s example.
Kowos in etawiyu, in oana ke nga etawi Christ.
2 I praise you because you remember all the things [that I taught you] and because you follow the instructions that I gave you. You have done just like I told you to do.
Nga kaksakin kowos mweyen kowos esamyu pacl nukewa, ac kowos fahsrna tukun mwe luti su nga tuh eis ac tafweot nu suwos.
3 [Now], I want you to know that the one who has authority over [MTY] every man is Christ, and the ones who have authority over women are men (OR, their husbands), and the one who has authority over Christ is God.
Tusruktu nga kena kowos in kalem kac lah Christ el sifen mukul nukewa, ac mukul tuma el sifen mutan kial, ac God El sifen Christ.
4 [So] if any man [wears a covering over] his head when he prays or speaks a message God gave him, he disgraces himself [SYN].
Ouinge sie mukul su pre ku fahkak kas lun God ye mutun mwet uh ke pacl in alu, fin sunya sifal, el aklusrongtenye sifal, su Christ.
5 Also, if any woman does not wear a covering over her head when she prays or speaks a message that God gave her, she disgraces herself (OR, she dishonors her husband). That would be acting like [SIM] [women who are ashamed because] their heads have been shaved.
Ac kutena mutan su pre ku fahkak kas lun God ye mutun mwet uh a wangin ma sunyen sifal, el aklusrongtenye mukul tumal, su sifal. Wangin ekla inmasrlon mutan sac ac mutan se su resaiyukla sifal.
6 So, if women do not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], they should let someone shave their heads [so that they will be ashamed]. But since women are ashamed if someone cuts their hair [short] or shaves off their hair, they should wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them].
Mutan se fin tia sunya sifal, ac fal na nu sel elan kalla aunsifal. Na ke sripen mwe mwekin se nu sin sie mutan in resaela sifal ku kalla aunsifal, enenu elan sunya sifal.
7 Men should not wear coverings over their heads [when they pray or speak messages that God gave them], because they represent what God is like [MET] and they show how great God is. But women show how great men (OR, their husbands) are.
Mukul se tia enenu in sunya sifal, mweyen el orekla in luman God ac in wolana lal. A mutan el orekla in fahkak wolana lun mukul;
8 [Remember that God intends that men have authority over women. We know that] because [God] did not make [the first] man, [Adam], from the [first] woman, [Eve]. Instead, he made that woman [from a bone that he took] from the man.
tuh mukul uh tia orekla liki mutan, a mutan uh orekla liki mukul.
9 Also, [God] did not create [the first] man [to help] the woman. Instead, [he] created the woman [to help] the man.
Oayapa mukul uh tia orekla ke sripen mutan, a mutan orekla ke sripen mukul.
10 For that reason, women should wear something [to cover] their heads [as a symbol of their being under their husbands’] [MTY] authority. They should also [cover their heads] so that the angels [will see that and rejoice].
Ouinge, ke sripen lipufan uh, sie mutan enenu in sunya sifal in fahkak lah el oan ye ku lun mukul tumal.
11 However, remember that [even though God created the first] woman from [the first] man, all other men [have been born] from women. So men cannot be independent of women, nor can women be independent of men. But all things, [including men and women], come from God.
A funu nu ke moul lasr in Leum, mutan el tia ku in sifacna fin wangin mukul, ac mukul tia pac ku in sifacna fin wangin mutan.
Tuh oana ke mutan el tuh orekla liki mukul, in ouiya sacna, inge mukul uh isusla sin mutan; ac ma nukewa ma orekla sin God me.
13 Consider this for yourselves: Is it proper for [RHQ] women to pray to God while they do not have coverings over their heads?
Kowos in sifacna nunku lah ac fal sie mutan in pre nu sin God ke pacl in alu a wangin ma sunyen sifal.
14 (Everyone senses that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair./Doesn’t everyone sense that it is disgraceful for men to have long hair?) [RHQ]
Ya tia ma kalem se suwos, lah oemeet me aunsuf loeloes lun mukul uh mwe mwekin se,
15 But it is very delightful if women have long hair, because [God] gave them long hair to be like a [beautiful] covering [for their heads].
a fin loes aunsifen sie mutan, sie ma kato? Itukyang aunsuf loeloes nu sin mutan tuh in ma afinyen sifal.
16 But whoever wants to argue [with me about my saying that women should have a covering over their heads when they pray or speak a message from God should consider the fact that] we [apostles] do not [permit] any other custom, and the [other] congregations of God do not have any other custom.
Tusruktu kutena mwet fin lungse akukuin kac, pwayena ma nga ac fahk pa: yorosr, oayapa yurin church lun God nukewa, pa inge ouiya lasr ke pacl in alu uh.
17 Now I want to tell you [about some other things]. I do not praise you about them, because whenever you believers meet together, good [things do not happen]. Instead, bad things [happen].
Tusruktu, kas in kasru luk nu suwos inge ma nu ke pacl kowos tukeni in alu — nga tia kaksakin kowos, mweyen yohk ma koluk sikyak liki ma wo.
18 First of all, people have told me that when you gather together as a group [to worship God], you divide into groups [that are hostile to each other]. To some extent I believe that is true.
Ma se meet, nga lohng mu oasr srisrielik inmasrlowos ke pacl kowos tukeni uh; ac nga lulalfongi mu kutu ma nga lohng uh pwaye.
19 It seems that you must divide into [groups that despise each other] in order that it might be clear/evident which people among you [God] approves of!
(Ac nuna oasr srisrielik inmasrlowos, tuh elos su inse pwaye inmasrlowos in akilenyuk.)
20 When you gather together, you [IRO] eat the meal [that you say is to remember the death of] the Lord [Jesus for us].
Pacl kowos tukeni nu sie, tia Kufwa lun Leum pa kowos oru.
21 But [what happens when] you eat is that each person eats his own meal before [he thinks about sharing his food with anyone else]. As a result, [when the meal is over], some people are [still] hungry and others are drunk! [So it is not a meal that honors the Lord].
Tuh ke kowos mongo, kais sie sa na kang ma nal sifacna, pwanang kutu mwet uh masrinsral a kutu sruhila.
22 ([You act as though] you do not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]!/Do you not have your own houses in which you can eat and drink [whatever you want to]?) [RHQ] Do you not realize [RHQ] [that by acting selfishly in this way], it is God’s people whom you are despising, and it is the poor people [in your group] whom you are treating as though they were not important? What shall I say to you about that [RHQ]? Do [you expect] me to praise you [about what you do] [RHQ]? I certainly will not praise you!
Mea, wangin lohm suwos sifacna kowos in mongo ac nim we? Ya ac wo suwos in pilesru church lun God ac akmwekinyalos su muta in enenu? Mea kowos nunku mu nga ac fahk nu suwos ke ma inge? Ya nga ac kaksakin kowos? Tiana ku!
23 The Lord taught me these things that I also taught you: During the night that Jesus was betrayed {[Judas] enabled [the enemies of] the Lord Jesus to seize him}, he took some bread.
Tuh mwe luti nga tuh eis sin Leum nga tafweot tari nu suwos: tuh Leum Jesus, in fong se ke tukakinyukyak el, el eis bread,
24 After he thanked God for it, he broke it into pieces. [Then he gave it to his disciples] and said, “This bread [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my body, that [I am about to sacrifice] for you. Eat bread in this [way again and again] to remember my [offering myself as a sacrifice for you].”
ac ke el sang kulo tari, el kunsalik ac fahk, “Eis, mongo; ma inge monuk ma musalla keiwos. Kowos oru ma inge in esamyu.”
25 Similarly, after they ate their meal, he took a cup [MTY] [of wine]. He [thanked God for it. Then he gave it to his disciples], saying, “[The wine in] [MTY] this cup [represents] [MET] (OR, is) my blood [that will flow from my body] ([to put into effect/to establish]) the new agreement [that God is making with people]. Whenever you drink wine in this way, do it to remember that [my blood flowed for you].”
Oayapa, tukun el mongo tari, el eis cup sac ac fahk, “Cup se inge wuleang sasu ke srahk. Ke kowos nim, kowos in oru ma inge in esamyu.”
26 [Remember that] until the Lord [Jesus] returns [to the earth], whenever you eat the [bread that represents his body] and drink the wine [MTY] [that represents his blood], you are telling other people that he died [for you].
Tuh pacl e nukewa kowos mongo bread inge ac nim ke cup se inge, kowos fahkak misa lun Leum nwe ke pacl se el sifil tuku.
27 So, those who eat that bread and drink that wine [MTY] in a way that is not proper [for those who belong to the Lord] are guilty of [acting in a way that is contrary to what] our [Lord intended when he offered] his body [as a sacrifice] and his blood [flowed when he died].
Ke ma inge, el su mongo bread inge ac nim ke cup lun Leum ke sie ouiya tia suwohs, oasr mwatal ke monin Leum ac srahn Leum.
28 Before any believer eats that bread and drinks that wine [MTY], he should think carefully about [what he is doing],
A lela kais sie mwet in sifacna tuni ouiyen moul lal meet liki el mongo ke bread inge ac nim ke cup se inge.
29 because if anyone eats [the bread that represents Christ’s body] and drinks [the wine that represents his blood] without recognizing that all God’s [people should be united, God will] punish him [for doing that].
Mweyen el fin tia akilen kalmen monin Leum ke pacl el mongo bread ac nim ke cup, el use nununku nu facl sifacna ke el mongo ac nim.
30 Many people in your group are weak and sick, and several have died [EUP] because of [the way they acted when they ate that bread and drank that wine].
Pa ingan sripa se oru mwet puspis inmasrlowos mas ac munas, ac kutu misa tari.
31 If we would think carefully about what we [are doing], [God] would not judge [and punish] us [like that].
Kut fin sifacna tuni kut meet, kut fah tia nununkeyuk.
32 But when the Lord judges [and punishes] us [for acting wrongly], he disciplines us [to correct us], in order that he will not [need to] punish us when he punishes [the people who do not trust in Christ] [MTY].
Tusruktu Leum God El nununkekut ac kai kut tuh kut fah tia wi faclu lisyukla.
33 So, my fellow believers, when you gather together to eat [food to remember the Lord’s dying for you], wait until everyone [has arrived so that you can find out who does not have enough food].
Ke ma inge, mwet lili luk, ke kowos tukeni nu sie in mongo ke Kufwa lun Leum, kowos in tupan sie sin sie.
34 Those who are so hungry [that they cannot wait to eat until everyone else has arrived] should eat in their own homes [first], in order that when you gather together God will not judge [and punish them for] ([being inconsiderate of/not being concerned about]) [others]. And when I come [to Corinth] I will give you instructions about other matters [concerning the Lord’s Supper].
Ac fin oasr mwet masrinsral, lela elan mongoi in lohm sel, tuh kowos fah tia nununkeyuk ke kowos tukeni nu sie. Ac sripa saya an, nga fah akkalemye ke nga fahsrot nu yuruwos.
