Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual, but as worldly—as infants in Christ.
1Mwet lili luk, nga koflana kaskas nu suwos oana nu sin mwet ma oasr Ngun Mutal yoro; nga enenu in kaskas nu suwos oana kowos in mwet lun faclu, oana tulik srisrik ma srikla etu lalos ke moul in Christian uh.
2I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for solid food. In fact, you are still not ready,
2Nga tuh enenu in kite kowos titi ac tia mwe mongo keke, mweyen kowos soenna akola nu kac. Ac nwe inge, kowos tia pacna akola nu kac,
3for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and dissension among you, are you not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man?
3mweyen kowos srakna moul oana moul lun mwet in facl se inge. Ke pacl se oasr sok inmasrlowos ac kowos amei yurin sie sin sie, ya ouiya inge tia akpwayei lah kowos ma lun faclu, ac kowos moul oana mwet faclu?
4For when one of you says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere men?
4Ke sie suwos fahk mu, “Nga ma lal Paul,” ac sie pac fahk mu, “Nga ma lal Apollos” — ya kowos tia moul oana mwet lun faclu?
5What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, as the Lord has assigned to each his role.
5Ku suwin Apollos? Ac su Paul? Kut mwet na kulansap lun God, su pwenkowosme nu ke lulalfongi. Kais sie sesr oru na orekma ma Leum el ase nu sesr in oru:
6I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.
6nga yukwiya, ac Apollos el aksroksrokye, a God pa akkapye.
7So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow.
7El su yukwiya ac el su aksroksrokye tia pa yohk sripa. A God pa yohk sripa, mweyen El pa akkapye.
8He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor.
8Wangin ekla inmasrlon el su yukwiya ac el su aksroksrokye; God El fah sang mwe mol nu sin kais sie, fal nu ke orekma lal.
9For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.
9Tuh kut tukeni orekma nu sin God, ac kowos ima lun God. Kowos oayapa mwe musa lun God.
10By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as an expert builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one must be careful how he builds.
10Ke nga orekmakin mwe kite ma God El ase nu sik, nga oru orekma lun sie mwet musa usrnguk ac oakiya pwelung uh, na sie pacna mwet musa fac. Tusruktu kais sie enenu in karinganang luman musa lal.
11For no one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.
11Wangin sie pac pwelung ku in oakwuki sayen ma God El oakiya tari, pa Jesus Christ.
12If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw,
12Kutu mwet uh fah orekmakin gold ku silver ku eot saok in musa fin pwelung sac; ac kutu ac orekmakin sak ku mah ku loa.
13his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work.
13Ac ouiyen orekma lun kais sie mwet musa ac fah kalem ke Len lun Christ. Tuh in Len sac, e uh ac fah akpwayei orekma lun kais sie mwet, ac srikeya in fahkak woiya.
14If what he has built survives, he will receive a reward.
14Ma musaiyuk fin pwelung sac fin oanna ac tia firirla ke e sac, na mwet musa sac fah eis sie mwe moul.
15If it is burned up, he will suffer loss. He himself will be saved, but only as if through the flames.
15Tusruktu orekma lun sie mwet fin firiryak, na orekma lal fah tuclac; a el sifacna fah moulla, oana mwet se ma muta in e firir sac ac kaingla.
16Do you not know that you yourselves are God’s temple, and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?
16Kowos etu na lah kowos tempul lun God, ac Ngun lun God muta in kowos!
17If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple.
17Ouinge kutena mwet fin kunausla tempul lun God, God El ac kunausella. Mweyen tempul lun God mutal, ac kowos pa tempul sac.
18Let no one deceive himself. If any of you thinks he is wise in this age, he should become a fool, so that he may become wise.
18Kowos in tia sifacna kiapwekowosla. Kutena mwet inmasrlowos fin nunku mu el lalmwetmet ke lalmwetmet lun faclu, el enenu in ekla sie mwet lalfon, elan mau ku in lalmwetmet na pwaye.
19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness.”
19Tuh ma su mwet faclu pangon lalmwetmet, ma lalfon yurin God. Oana Ma Simusla uh fahk, “God El srumasrla mwet lalmwetmet in kutasrik lalos sifacna.”
20And again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.”
20Ac sie pac kas in Ma Simusla uh fahk mu, “Leum El etu lah nunak lun mwet lalmwetmet uh ma lusrongten.”
21Therefore, stop boasting in men. All things are yours,
21Ke ma inge, lela mwet in tia konkin ke ma mwet uh ku in oru. Pwayeiya uh, ma nukewa ma lowos:
22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future. All of them belong to you,
22Paul, Apollos, ac Peter; facl se inge, moul ac misa; pacl inge ac pacl fahsru uh — ma inge nukewa ma lowos,
23and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
23ac kowos ma lun Christ, ac Christ el ma lun God.
