Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Follow after charity, be zealous for spiritual gifts; but rather that you may prophesy.
1Ke ma inge, lungse pa kowos ac kwafe kowos nu kac. Kowos in oayapa kwafe kowos nu ke mwe sang lun ngun, yokna ke mwe sang lun sulkakin kas lun God.
2For he that speaketh in a tongue, speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man heareth. Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.
2Mwet se ma kaskaskin siena kain pusra el tia kaskas nu sin mwet uh a nu sin God, mweyen wangin mwet kalem kac. El kaskas ke ma lukma ke ku lun Ngun.
3But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
3Tusruktu mwet se su sulkakin kas lun God el kaskas nu sin mwet uh ke kas in kasrelos, kas in akkeyalos, ac kas in akwoyalos.
4He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.
4Mwet se ma kaskaskin siena kain pusra el kasrel sifacna, a mwet se ma sulkakin kas lun God el kasru mwet nukewa su tukeni in church.
5And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.
5Wo sik kowos nukewa in kaskaskin siena kain pusra; a wo liki na tuh in oasr mwe sang yuruwos in sulkakin kas lun God. Tuh yohk sripen mwet se su sulkakin kas lun God liki el su kaskaskin siena kain pusra — sayen fin oasr sie su ku in aketeya ma el fahk, tuh church nufon sac fah eis kasru kac.
6But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?
6Ke ma inge, mwet wiuk in lulalfongi, nga fin fahsrot nu yuruwos, ya oasr sripa nu suwos nga fin kaskaskin siena kain pusra? Ac wanginna, nga fin tia fahkak nu suwos sie mwe fahkak sin God me, ku kas in etauk, ku kas in purakak nunkowos, ku kas in luti.
7Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
7Nunku ke sie flute ku harp, kain in mwe srital on ma wangin moul la — mwet uh ac etu fuka ahyen on soko fin tia kalem pusren kais sie note kac?
8For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
8Ac mwet ukuk se fin tia ukya mwe ukuk uh in kalem, su ac akola nu ke mweun?
9So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall be speaking into the air.
9In ouiya sacna, mwet uh ac kalem fuka ke ma kowos fahk uh kowos fin kaskaskin siena kain pusra ma tiana kalem uh? Kas lowos uh ac wanginla yen engyeng uh!
10There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.
10Pukanten kain in kas fin faclu ma tia oana sie, a kain in kas inge nukewa oasr kalmeya.
11If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian to me.
11Sie mwet fin sramsram ke kas ma nga tia etu, na el oana sie mwet sac nu sik, ac nga mwet sac se pac nu sel.
12So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of the church.
12Ke kowos kena eis mwe sang lun Ngun, kowos enenu in akyokye orekmakinyen mwe sang ma ac kasru in musaeak mwet in church.
13And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.
13Mwet se ma kaskaskin siena kain pusra, elan pre tuh in itukyang nu sel mwe sang in akkalemye ma el fahk.
14For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.
14Tuh nga fin pre ke siena kain pusra, ngunik el pre, a nunkuk wangin kac.
15What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.
15Na mea nga ac oru? Nga fah pre ke ngunik, ac nga fah oayapa pre ke nunak luk; nga fah on ke ngunik, ac nga fah oayapa on ke nunak luk.
16Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.
16Ke kom sang kulo nu sin God ke ngun mukena, mwet saya se su wi tukeni sac el ac ku in wi fahk “Amen” fuka nu ke pre in sang kulo lom, ke el tia ku in etu ma kom fahk an?
17For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
17Pre in sang kulo lom nu sin God finne wo, ac tiana kasru mwet se ngia.
18I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.
18Nga kulo nu sin God lah nga kaskaskin siena kain pusra yohk liki kowos nukewa.
19But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; than ten thousand words in a tongue.
19Tusruktu ke pacl in alu in church, wo sik in kaskaskin kas limekosr na ma mwet uh ku in kalem kac ac eis etauk kac, liki na in kaskaskin tausin puspis kas in siena kain pusra.
20Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.
20Mwet Christian wiuk, kowos in tia elahn tulik in nunak lowos. Tusruktu in ma koluk, lela in wangin mwatuwos oana tulik srisrik; a in nunak lowos, kowos in nunak oana mwet matu.
21In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.
21In Ma Simusla oasr ma simla su fahk: “Ke kaskas lun mwet su siena kas lalos, Nga fah kaskas nu sin mwet luk, Leum El fahk. Nga fah kaskas ke oalin mwet sac uh, Tusruktu, ne ouinge, mwet luk fah tia porongeyu.”
22Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.
22Ouinge, mwe sang lun kaskas ke siena kain pusra el oana sie mwe akul nu sin mwet selulalfongi, ac tia nu sin mwet lulalfongi. Ac sulkakinyen kas lun God pa sie mwe akul nu sin mwet lulalfongi, ac tia nu sin mwet selulalfongi.
23If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad?
23Ke ouinge uh, fin oasr tukeni lun mwet in church, ac mwet nukewa mutawauk in kaskaskin siena kain pusra — ac kutu mwet saya, ku mwet sululalfongi utyak wi, ya elos ac tia fahk mu kowos mwet wel?
24But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all.
24A elos nukewa fin sulkakin kas lun God ke sie mwet selulalfongi ku sie mwet saya utyak, na el ac ku in akilenak ma koluk lal ke ma el lohng uh. El ac fah nununkal sifacna ke ma el lohng inge,
25The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.
25ac el ac fahkak nunak lukma lal ye mutun mwet tukeni uh, ac el ac fah faksufi ac alu nu sin God ac fahk, “Pwayena lah God El oasr yuruwos!”
26How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.
26Mwet lulalfongi wiuk, pa inge kalmen ma nga fahk uh. Ke kowos tukeni nu ke alu, sie mwet uh ac on, sie elan luti, sie elan fahkak mwe fahkak sin God me, sie pac elan kaskaskin siena kain pusra, ac sie pac elan aketeya pusra inge. Ma nukewa enenu in mwe musaeak mwet in church.
27If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one interpret.
27Kutena mwet fin kaskaskin siena kain pusra, lela in tia pus liki mwet luo ku tolu, ac elos in kais sie eis pacl lalos, ac sie pac mwet in aketeya ma srumunyuk uh.
28But if there be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.
28Tusruktu fin wangin mwet ku in aketeya, na mwet se ma kaskaskin siena kain pusra el enenu in misla, ac kaskas na nu sel sifacna ac nu sin God.
29And let the prophets speak, two or three; and let the rest judge.
29Mwet luo ku tolu su oasr mwe fahkak sin God me elos in eis kunalos, na mwet ngia in lohang akwoya nu ke ma elos fahk.
30But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.
30Tusruktu mwet se fin muta in tukeni uh ac el eis sie mwe fahkak sin God, mwet se ma kaskas uh enenu in tui.
31For you may all prophesy one by one; that all may learn, and all may be exhorted:
31Kais sie suwos ku in eis pacl la in fahkak kas lun God, tuh mwet nukewa in ku in lutlut kac ac eis ku lalos kac.
32And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
32Sie mwet su sulkakin kas lun God el enenu in karinganang mwe sang se ma itukyang nu sel,
33For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints.
33mweyen God El tia pangon kut nu ke ouiya oraru, a nu ke ouiya misla. Oana in church nukewa lun mwet lun God,
34Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.
34mutan elos enenu in misla ke pacl in tukeni uh. Elos in tia kaskas, a elos in pusisel, fal nu ke Ma Sap lun mwet Jew.
35But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.
35Elos fin lungse etu ke kutena ma, elos fah siyuk sin mukul tumalos in lohm selos. Sie mwe mwekin fin sie mutan el kaskas ke pacl in tukeni lun church.
36Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?
36Kowos mwet in church Corinth, mea pwaye lah kas lun God tuku yuruwos me? Ya kowos mukena pa kas lun God tuku nu se uh?
37If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.
37Mwet se fin nunku mu el mwet utuk kas lun God, ku oasr mwe sang lun ngun yorol, elan akilen lah ma nga simis nu suwos inge ma Leum Jesus el sapkin.
38But if any man know not, he shall not be known.
38Tusruktu el fin tia lohang nu ke kas luk inge, nimet kowos lohang nu sel.
39Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with tongues.
39Ke ma inge, mwet lulalfongi wiuk, kowos in insianaung in sulkakin kas lun God, tusruktu nimet ikol mwet lulalfongi su kaskaskin siena kain pusra.
40But let all things be done decently, and according to order.
40Kowos in oru ma nukewa in ouiya fal ac in takla wo.
