Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Pea ʻi he ngaahi meʻa kuo feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua, ʻoku tau ʻilo, he ʻoku tau maʻu kotoa pē ʻae ʻilo. ʻOku fakafuofuolahi ʻe he ʻilo, ka ʻoku langa hake ʻe he ʻofa.
1De iis autem quæ idolis sacrificantur, scimus quia omnes scientiam habemus. Scientia inflat, caritas vero ædificat.
2Pea kapau ʻoku mahalo ʻe ha tangata ʻoku ne ʻilo ha meʻa, ʻoku teʻeki te ne ʻilo ha meʻa ʻe taha, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku totonu ke ne ʻilo.
2Si quis autem se existimat scire aliquid, nondum cognovit quemadmodum oporteat eum scire.
3Ka ʻoka ai ha taha ʻoku ʻofa ki he ʻOtua, ʻoku ʻilo ia ʻe ia.
3Si quis autem diligit Deum, hic cognitus est ab eo.
4Pea koeʻuhi ko e kai ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ko ia ʻoku feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua, ʻoku tau ʻilo, ko e tamapua ko e meʻa noa pē ʻi māmani, pea ʻoku ʻikai mo ha ʻOtua, ka ko e tokotaha pe.
4De escis autem quæ idolis immolantur, scimus quia nihil est idolum in mundo, et quod nullus est Deus, nisi unus.
5He neongo ʻoku ʻi ai ʻoku ui “ko e ngaahi ʻotua,” ʻi he langi pe ʻi he māmani, (he ʻoku ai ʻae “ʻotua” tokolahi, mo e “ʻeiki” tokolahi),
5Nam etsi sunt qui dicantur dii sive in cælo, sive in terra (siquidem sunt dii multi, et domini multi):
6Ka ʻoku taha pe ʻae ʻOtua kiate kitautolu, ko e Tamai, ʻaia ʻoku mei ai ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, pea maʻana ʻakitautolu; pea taha pe ʻae ʻEiki, ko Sisu Kalaisi, ʻaia ʻoku ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē, mo kitautolu ʻiate ia.
6nobis tamen unus est Deus, Pater, ex quo omnia, et nos in illum: et unus Dominus Jesus Christus, per quem omnia, et nos per ipsum.
7Ka ʻoku ʻikai ʻi he tangata kotoa pē ʻae ʻilo ko ia: he ʻoku kei ai ni ʻae niʻihi ʻoku kai fākaliliʻa ʻae meʻa ʻoku ʻatu ki ha tamapua, ʻo hangē ko ha moʻoni ia, pea ʻoku fakaului ai honau loto koeʻuhi ko ʻene vaivai.
7Sed non in omnibus est scientia. Quidam autem cum conscientia usque nunc idoli, quasi idolothytum manducant: et conscientia ipsorum cum sit infirma, polluitur.
8Ka ʻoku ʻikai fakaongolelei ʻakitautolu ʻe he meʻakai ki he ʻOtua: he ʻoku ʻikai te tau lelei ai, ʻo kapau ʻoku tau kai; pea ʻoku ʻikai te tau kovi ai, ʻo kapau ʻoku ʻikai te tau kai.
8Esca autem nos non commendat Deo. Neque enim si manducaverimus, abundabimus: neque si non manducaverimus, deficiemus.
9Kae vakai telia naʻa ai ha meʻa ʻe hoko ai hoʻomou tauʻatāina ni ko e tūkiaʻanga kiate kinautolu ʻoku vaivai.
9Videte autem ne forte hæc licentia vestra offendiculum fiat infirmis.
10He kapau ʻe mamata ha taha kiate koe, ʻa koe “ko e poto,” ʻoku ke nofo ʻo kai ʻi he fale ʻoe tamapua, ʻikai ʻe langa hake ai ʻae loto ʻo ia ʻoku vaivai, ke ne kai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ko ia kuo feilaulau ʻaki ki he ngaahi tamapua;
10Si enim quis viderit eum, qui habet scientiam, in idolio recumbentem: nonne conscientia ejus, cum sit infirma, ædificabitur ad manducandum idolothyta?
11Pea ko e meʻa ʻi hoʻo “ʻilo” ʻe ʻauha ai ho kāinga vaivai, naʻe pekia ai ʻa Kalaisi?
11Et peribit infirmus in tua scientia, frater, propter quem Christus mortuus est?
12Ka ʻi hoʻomou angahala pehē ki he kāinga, ʻo fakakafo honau loto vaivai, ko hoʻomou fai angahala ia kia Kalaisi.
12Sic autem peccantes in fratres, et percutientes conscientiam eorum infirmam, in Christum peccatis.
13Ko ia kapau ʻe fakahalaʻi hoku kāinga ʻe he meʻakai, ʻe ʻikai te u kai ʻae kakano ʻi he kei tuʻu ʻa māmani, telia naʻaku fakahalaʻi hoku kāinga.
13Quapropter si esca scandalizat fratrem meum, non manducabo carnem in æternum, ne fratrem meum scandalizem.
