1Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Sosthenes a brother,
1Ko au Paula, naʻe ui ko e ʻaposetolo ʻa Sisu Kalaisi, ʻi he finangalo ʻoe ʻOtua, mo Sositine ko e tokoua,
2To the church of God that is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that invoke the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, in every place of theirs and ours.
2ki he siasi ʻoe ʻOtua ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Kolinitō, kiate kinautolu kuo fakamāʻoniʻoni ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, kuo hoko ko e māʻoniʻoni, mo kinautolu kotoa pē ʻi he potu fulipē ʻoku ui ki he huafa ʻo Sisu Kalaisi ko hotau ʻEiki, ʻoku ʻonautolu mo ʻotautolu fakatouʻosi:
3Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻofa mo e melino, mei he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai, pea mei he ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
4I give thanks to my God always for you, for the grace of God that is given you in Christ Jesus,
4ʻOku ou fakafetaʻi maʻuaipē ki hoku ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, koeʻuhi ko e ʻofa ʻae ʻOtua kuo foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻia Sisu Kalaisi;
5That in all things you are made rich in him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;
5Koeʻuhi kuo ne fakakoloaʻia ʻakimoutolu ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē, ʻi he ngaahi lea kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi ʻilo kotoa pē;
6As the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
6ʻO hangē ko hono fakamoʻoni ʻoe fakahā ʻo Kalaisi ʻiate kimoutolu:
7So that nothing is wanting to you in any grace, waiting for the manifestation of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7Ko ia ʻoku ʻikai ai te mou tomui ʻi ha foaki; ʻo tatali ki he fakahā ʻa hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi:
8Who also will confirm you unto the end without crime, in the day of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
8ʻAia te ne fakatuʻumaʻu ʻakimoutolu foki ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga, koeʻuhi ke mou taʻehala ʻi he ʻaho ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.
9God is faithful: by whom you are called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
9ʻOku moʻoni ʻae ʻOtua, ʻaia naʻe ui ʻakimoutolu ki he feohi mo hono ʻAlo ko Sisu Kalaisi ko hotau ʻEiki.
10Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no schisms among you; but that you be perfect in the same mind, and in the same judgment.
10Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻi he huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi, ke lea taha pe ʻakimoutolu kotoa pē, pea ke ʻoua naʻa ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ngaahi mavahevahe; ka mou māʻopoʻopo lelei ʻo loto taha pe, pea fakakaukau taha pe.
11For it hath been signified unto me, my brethren, of you, by them that are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
11He kuo fakahā mai kiate au ʻakimoutolu, ʻe hoku kāinga, ʻekinautolu ʻi he fale ʻo Koloi, ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi kikihi ʻiate kimoutolu.
12Now this I say, that every one of you saith: I indeed am of Paul; and I am of Apollo; and I am of Cephas; and I of Christ.
12Pea ko ʻeku lea eni, ʻoku mou taki taha pehē, “ʻOku ʻo Paula au;” pea, “ʻOku ʻo ʻApolosi au;” pea, “ʻOku ʻo Kifasi au;” pea, “ʻOku ʻo Kalaisi au.”
13Is Christ divided? Was Paul then crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
13Kuo mavahevahe koā ʻa Kalaisi? Naʻe tutuki ki he ʻakau ʻa Paula koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu? Pe naʻa mou papitaiso ʻi he hingoa ʻo Paula?
14I give God thanks, that I baptized none of you but Crispus and Caius;
14ʻOku ou fakafetaʻi ki he ʻOtua, naʻe ʻikai te u papitaiso ha taha ʻiate kimoutolu ka ko Kalisipo mo Keio;
15Lest any should say that you were baptized in my name.
15Telia naʻa pehē ʻe ha niʻihi kuo u fai papitaiso ʻi hoku hingoa ʻoʻoku.
16And I baptized also the household of Stephanus; besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
16Pea naʻaku papitaiso foki ʻae fale ʻo Setivena: pea ʻoku ʻikai te u ʻilo pe naʻaku papitaiso mo ha taha kehe.
17For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of speech, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.
17He naʻe ʻikai fekau au ʻe Kalaisi ke papitaiso, ka ke malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei: kae ʻikai ʻi he poto ʻoe lea, telia naʻa fakataʻeaongaʻi ʻae ʻakau naʻe tutuki ki ai ʻa Kalaisi.
18For the word of the cross, to them indeed that perish, is foolishness; but to them that are saved, that is, to us, it is the power of God.
18He ko e malangaʻaki ʻae ʻakau naʻe tutuki ia ki ai ko e vale ia kiate kinautolu ʻoku malaʻia: ka ko e mālohi ia ʻoe ʻOtua kiate kitautolu kuo fakamoʻui.
19For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the prudence of the prudent I will reject.
19He kuo tohi, “Te u fakaʻauha ʻae poto ʻoe kau poto, Pea te u fakataʻeʻaonga ʻae ʻilo ʻoe ʻiloʻilo.”
20Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
20Ko e fē ʻae poto? Ko e fē ʻae tangata tohi? Ko e fē ʻae fakakikihi ʻo māmani? ʻIkai kuo fakamatavalea ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae poto ʻo māmani?
21For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world, by wisdom, knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of our preaching, to save them that believe.
21He koeʻuhi ʻi he poto ʻoe ʻOtua naʻe ʻikai ʻilo ʻae ʻOtua ʻe māmani ʻi hono poto, pea naʻe lelei ki he ʻOtua ʻi he “vale” ʻoe malanga ke fakamoʻui ʻakinautolu ʻoku tui.
22For both the Jews require signs, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
22He ʻoku tangi ʻe he kakai Siu ki ha meʻa fakaofo, pea ʻoku kumi ʻe he kakai Kiliki ki he poto:
23But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews indeed a stumblingblock, and unto the Gentiles foolishness:
23Ka ʻoku mau malangaʻaki ʻa Kalaisi naʻe tutuki ki he ʻakau, ko e tūkiaʻanga ki he kakai Siu, pea ki he kakai Kiliki ko e vale;
24But unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
24Ka ko e mālohi ʻoe ʻOtua mo e poto ʻoe ʻOtua ʻa Kalaisi, kiate kinautolu kuo ui, ʻi he kakai Siu mo e kakai Kiliki.
25For the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
25He ko ia ʻoku vale ʻi he ʻOtua, ʻoku poto lahi ia ʻi he tangata; mo ia ʻoku vaivai ʻi he ʻOtua, ʻoku mālohi lahi ia ʻi he tangata.
26For see your vocation, brethren, that there are not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble:
26He ʻoka mou mamata ki homou ui, ʻe kāinga, koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ui ha tokolahi ʻoe poto fakakakano, pe ko e tokolahi ʻi he mālohi, pe ko e tokolahi ʻi he houʻeiki:
27But the foolish things of the world hath God chosen, that he may confound the wise; and the weak things of the world hath God chosen, that he may confound the strong.
27Ka kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi meʻa vale ʻoe māmani, ke fakamā ʻae poto; pea kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi meʻa vaivai ʻoe māmani, ke fakamā ʻae mālohi;
28And the base things of the world, and the things that are contemptible, hath God chosen, and things that are not, that he might bring to nought things that are:
28Mo e kau lāuvale ʻoe māmani, mo e meʻa kuo manuki, kuo fili ʻe he ʻOtua, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa kuo ʻikai, ke ne fakaʻosi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa ʻoku ai:
29That no flesh should glory in his sight.
29Ke ʻoua naʻa vikiviki ha toko taha ʻi hono ʻao.
30But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption:
30Ka ko e meʻa ʻiate ia ʻoku mou ʻia Kalaisi Sisu, ʻaia kuo hoko ai ia mei he ʻOtua kiate kitautolu, ko e poto, mo e fakatonuhia, mo e māʻoniʻoni, mo e huhuʻi:
31That, as it is written: He that glorieth, may glory in the Lord.
31Koeʻuhi, ke hangē ko ia kuo tohi, “Ko ia ʻoku vikiviki, ke vikiviki ia ʻi he ʻEiki.”
