Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
World English Bible
1Ngani wata Apostel nganai? Ngani wata kurakanila nganai? Ngani wata Jesus Kapara ngaianani najina wonti? Jura wata ngankani ngakani nganai Kaparani?
1Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Haven’t I seen Jesus Christ, our Lord? Aren’t you my work in the Lord?
2Ngani wata kana pilkia Apostel ngananani, ngani jenipara morlalu jurangu nganai, ngangau ngakani Apostel ngamalkijiribani malka morlalu jura nganai Kaparani;
2If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
3Jurajuralkaterini ngakani tanangu, tanali ngana wontjai, naupini nganai.
3My defense to those who examine me is this:
4Ngaiani wata ngurula ngamalkai tajila ja tapala?
4Have we no right to eat and to drink?
5Ngaiani wata ngurula ngamalkai kaku noa wiralkala, Apostel worali ja Kaparaia ngatatajeli ja Kephajeli jeribaka?
5Have we no right to take along a wife who is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
6Windri ngato ja Barnabali kara wata ngurula ngamalkai panila ngankala?
6Or have only Barnabas and I no right to not work?
7Worana tirimalinaia wapai, ja kalala pani maniai? Warle waina maru kurai, ja wata nunkani tandrandru tajiai? Warle ngami kulno ngamalkai, ja wata ngamandru tajiai?
7What soldier ever serves at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard, and doesn’t eat of its fruit? Or who feeds a flock, and doesn’t drink from the flock’s milk?
8Ngani jenia kana jeribaka jatai; wata jirijiribani jaura jenia bakana jatai?
8Do I speak these things according to the ways of men? Or doesn’t the law also say the same thing?
9Ngangau Mosini jirijiribani jaurani dakanala parai: „Jundru ngantini nulu tandra nankanankai, wata mana billieli ngandrawalkananto!“ Godali nganti manujeli ngundrai kara?
9For it is written in the law of Moses, “You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.” Is it for the oxen that God cares,
10Nauja jenia wata kantji ngaianingundru jatai? Kau, ngaianingundru jenia dakanala parai, ngangau mita bakunietjali mita bakujai kalkanaia, ja tandra nankanankanietjali nankai kalkanaia, bakana manila.
10or does he say it assuredly for our sake? Yes, it was written for our sake, because he who plows ought to plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should partake of his hope.
11Ngaiani jurangu Jaolaia poto jaupana warai, jenia pirna nganai, ngaiani jurani mitaia poto kampanani?
11If we sowed to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap your fleshly things?
12Kana pilkieli ngurula ngamalkanani jurangu, minandru morla wata ngaiani? Ngaiani ninapini ngurula wata manina warai, a‐ai, ngaiani pratjana mandrai, ngaiani wata dakaterini jinkinanto Christuni ngantjani jaurani.
12If others partake of this right over you, don’t we yet more? Nevertheless we didn’t use this right, but we bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the Good News of Christ.
13Jura wata milkila, tanali poto ngumu ngankingai, poto ngumundru tajiai? Ja tanali Altara ngamalkai, Altarandru maniai?
13Don’t you know that those who serve around sacred things eat from the things of the temple, and those who wait on the altar have their portion with the altar?
14Jeruja bakana Kaparali kurana wonti, tanali ngantjani jaura kaukaubai, tana ngantjani jaurandru bakana tepirinanto.
14Even so the Lord ordained that those who proclaim the Good News should live from the Good News.
15Ngato panila tanangundru manina warai. Jenia ngato wata dakana warai, ngakangu bakana jeruja pantjinanto. Ngakangu morla ngumu nganananto palila, kulnujeli pirnala kaliati.
15But I have used none of these things, and I don’t write these things that it may be done so in my case; for I would rather die, than that anyone should make my boasting void.
16Ngato ngantjani jaura kaukaubanani, jenia wata pirnala nganai ngakangu, ngangau ngato jenia kantji ngankananto. Jakajai ngakangu, ngato ngantjani jaura wata kaukaubanani.
16For if I preach the Good News, I have nothing to boast about, for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me if I don’t preach the Good News.
17Ngangau ngato jenia bakujeli ngankanani, ngato kalala manila nganai; ngato jenia buljubuljujeli ngankanani, jeruja ngakangu Godaia poto ngamalkijiribani jinkinala.
17For if I do this of my own will, I have a reward. But if not of my own will, I have a stewardship entrusted to me.
18Mina kalala ngakani nganai? Ngato ngantjani jaura kaukaubanani, ngato ninaia ngantjani jaura bakujeli kaukaubananto, ja ngakani ngurula ngantjani jaurandru wata maninanto.
18What then is my reward? That when I preach the Good News, I may present the Good News of Christ without charge, so as not to abuse my authority in the Good News.
19Ngani wata kulnuja mili nganai, ngani munta pratjanani mili jinkiterinala, ngato tanangundru marapu mamananto.
19For though I was free from all, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.
20Ja ngani Juda kanani Juda kana jeribaka pantjina warai, Juda kana mamala; tanangu, tana jirijiribani jaurani ngamai, jirijiribani jaurani ngamanani jeribaka, tanana, tana jirijiribani jaurani ngamai, mamala;
20To the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain those who are under the law;
21Tanangu, tana jirijiribani jaura panina, jirijiribani jaura panini jeribaka, ngani munta wata Godaia jirijiribani jaura panini ngamai, a‐ai, ngani jirijiribani jaurani ngamai Christungu, tanana, tana jirijiribani jaura panini, mamala.
21to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law.
22Ngani waltowaltuetjani waltowaltuetja jeribaka pantjina warai, tanana, tana waltowalto, mamala; ngani kana pratjanani pratjana pantjina warai, paruparu palpa kulkala.
22To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some.
23Jenia pratjana ngato ngankai ngantjani jaurandru, ngato nunkanina maninanto. (Dakani jaura Septuagesimä ditjini.)
23Now I do this for the sake of the Good News, that I may be a joint partaker of it.
24Wata jura milkila, tana milkimalini mitani mindriai, pratjana mindriai, ja windri kulnujeli kalala patai? Jeruja jura mindrianau nina patala.
24Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, so that you may win.
25Pratjaterina, tana mindriai, pratjanani ngamalkateriai; tanapara pirapira manila nau mudai, ja ngaiani pirapira nau wata mudai.
25Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
26Ngani mindriai, ja wata bakuja; ngato nandrai, ja wata kulnuni jeribaka nulu warumai.
26I therefore run like that, not aimlessly. I fight like that, not beating the air,
27A‐ai, ngani palku nankateriai, ja nina mila ngankateriai, ngangau ngato nguruni matja kaukaubani pirna nganana, munta tintateriati.
27but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.
