Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.
1Muramuraia poto ngumundru ngaiani milkila, ngaiani pratjanali ngujamani ngamalkai. Ngujamanali wombatjarai, ja ngantjanali wotiai.
2And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.
2Kulnujeli ngundraterinani nau milkila ngananani, jeruja nulu panila ngujamana warai worderu nina ngujamananto.
3But if any any love God, the same is known by him.
3Kulnujeli Goda ngantjanani, nina Nulia ngujamala wapaia.
4But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
4Muramura poto ngumuja tajinandru ngaiani milkila, muramura pani mitani nganai, ja wata Goda pilki nganai, windri Kulno.
5For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many, and lords many).
5Ja tanali kantji muramura worana dikanani, pariwilpani kara mitani kara, worderu Goda muramura marapu ja Kapara marapu nganai;
6Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
6Ngaianingu windri Goda kulno nganai, Ngaperi, nunkangundru warupoto nganai, ja ngaiani nunkangu; ja windri Kapara kulno, Jesus Christus, nunkangundru warupoto nganai, ja ngaiani nunkangundru.
7But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
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.
8But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
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.
9But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.
9Ngamalkaterianau, jurani ngurula waltowaltuni dakaterina pantjiati.
10For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
10Kulnujeli jidna, jundru ngujamana ngamalkanani, najinani muramuraia pungani kurlini ngamanani; nau wata nunkani ngara ngaiala waltowalto ngurunguru ngankaterila nganai muramuraia poto ngumu tajila?
11And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
11Ja jinkani ngujamanandru ngatata waltowalto tintaterila nganai, nunkangundru Christus palina wonti?
12Now when you sin thus against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
12Jeruja jura ngatata worangu madlentji ngankanani, ja tanani ngara ngaiala waltowalto nandranani, jura Christungu madlentji ngankai.
13Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother.
13Jendrangundruja, ngangau tajinali ngatatani ngakanani dakaterina jinkinani, jeruja ngato morlalu wata nganti tajila nganai ngurali, ngangau ngato wata ngatatani ngakanani dakaterina kurananto.
