Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
Berean Standard Bible
1Muramuraia poto ngumundru ngaiani milkila, ngaiani pratjanali ngujamani ngamalkai. Ngujamanali wombatjarai, ja ngantjanali wotiai.
1Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
2Kulnujeli ngundraterinani nau milkila ngananani, jeruja nulu panila ngujamana warai worderu nina ngujamananto.
2The one who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know.
3Kulnujeli Goda ngantjanani, nina Nulia ngujamala wapaia.
3But the one who loves God is known by God.
4Muramura poto ngumuja tajinandru ngaiani milkila, muramura pani mitani nganai, ja wata Goda pilki nganai, windri Kulno.
4So about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that an idol is nothing at all in the world, and that there is no God but one.
5Ja tanali kantji muramura worana dikanani, pariwilpani kara mitani kara, worderu Goda muramura marapu ja Kapara marapu nganai;
5For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many so-called gods and lords),
6Ngaianingu windri Goda kulno nganai, Ngaperi, nunkangundru warupoto nganai, ja ngaiani nunkangu; ja windri Kapara kulno, Jesus Christus, nunkangundru warupoto nganai, ja ngaiani nunkangundru.
6yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we exist. And there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we exist.
7Wata pratjanali ngujamani ngamalkai. Palpa ngara ngaialandru japali, tanali nina muramuraia poto ngumu jeribaka tajiai, ja ngangau tanani ngara ngaiala waltowalto nganai, jeruja nau murumuru pantjiai.
7But not everyone has this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that they eat such food as if it were sacrificed to an idol. And since their conscience is weak, it is defiled.
8Tajinali ngaianina Godani wata talku ngankai; ngangau ngaiani tajinani, ngaiani wata morla talku nganala nganai; ja ngaiani wata tajinani, ngaiani wata morla waka nganala nganai.
8But food does not bring us closer to God: We are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.
9Ngamalkaterianau, jurani ngurula waltowaltuni dakaterina pantjiati.
9Be careful, however, that your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.
10Kulnujeli jidna, jundru ngujamana ngamalkanani, najinani muramuraia pungani kurlini ngamanani; nau wata nunkani ngara ngaiala waltowalto ngurunguru ngankaterila nganai muramuraia poto ngumu tajila?
10For if someone with a weak conscience sees you who are well informed eating in an idol’s temple, will he not be encouraged to eat food sacrificed to idols?
11Ja jinkani ngujamanandru ngatata waltowalto tintaterila nganai, nunkangundru Christus palina wonti?
11So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge.
12Jeruja jura ngatata worangu madlentji ngankanani, ja tanani ngara ngaiala waltowalto nandranani, jura Christungu madlentji ngankai.
12By sinning against your brothers in this way and wounding their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
13Jendrangundruja, ngangau tajinali ngatatani ngakanani dakaterina jinkinani, jeruja ngato morlalu wata nganti tajila nganai ngurali, ngangau ngato wata ngatatani ngakanani dakaterina kurananto.
13Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to stumble.
