¹Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;

¹[Fananarana fandrao misy manaram-po araka ny nofo ka tratry ny loza] Fa tsy tiako tsy ho fantatrareo, ry rahalahy, fa ny razantsika rehetra dia tambanin'ny rahona, ary izy rehetra namaky ny ranomasina,

²And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

²ary izy rehetra dia natao batisa ho amin'i Mosesy tao amin'ny rahona sy ny ranomasina,

³And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

³ary izy rehetra nihinana ny fihinam-panahy iray ihany,

⁴And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

⁴ary izy rehetra nisotro ny fisotrom-panahy iray ihany; fa nisotro tamin'ny vatolampy fanahy izay nanaraka azy izy, ary Kristy izany vatolampy izany.

⁵But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.

⁵Nefa ny ankabiazany dia tsy sitrak'Andriamanitra, fa naringana tany an-efitra.

⁶Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

⁶Ary izany zavatra izany dia tonga anatra ho antsika, mba tsy ho mpila zava-dratsy isika toy ny nilan'ireny.

⁷Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

⁷Ary aoka tsy ho mpanompo sampy ianareo tahaka ny sasany amin'ireny, araka ny voasoratra hoe: Ny olona nipetraka hihinana sy hisotro, dia nitsangana hilalao (Eks. 32. 6).

⁸Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

⁸Ary aoka tsy hijangajanga isika tahaka ny sasany tamin'ireny, ka telo arivo amby roa alina no ringana indray andro.

⁹Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

⁹Ary aoka tsy haka fanahy ny Tompo isika, tahaka ny nakan'ny sasany tamin'ireny fanahy Azy, ka matin'ny menarana ireny. [ Na: [an'i Kristy]

¹⁰Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.

¹⁰Ary aoka tsy himonomonona ianareo tahaka ny sasany tamin'ireny, izay matin'ny mpandringana.

¹¹Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

¹¹Ary izany dia nanjo azy mba ho anatra, sady voasoratra izany ho fananarana antsika izay niharan'ny faran'izao tontolo izao.

¹²Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

¹²Koa izay manao azy fa efa mijoro tsara, dia aoka izy hitandrina, fandrao ho lavo.

¹³There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

¹³Tsy misy fakam-panahy nahazo anareo afa-tsy izay zakan'ny olombelona; nefa mahatoky Andriamanitra ka tsy hamela anareo halaim-panahy mihoatra noho izay zakanareo; fa momba ny fakam-panahy dia hasiany lalana hahafahanareo koa mba hahazakanareo izany.

¹⁴Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

¹⁴Koa amin'izany, ry malala, mandosira ny fanompoan-tsampy.

¹⁵I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

¹⁵Miteny toy ny amin'ny olo-manan-tsaina aho; heveronareo izay lazaiko.

¹⁶The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?

¹⁶Ny kapoaky ny fisaorana izay isaorantsika, tsy firaisana amin'ny ran'i Kristy va izany? Ny mofo izay vakintsika, tsy firaisana amin'ny tenan'i Kristy va izany? [ sy Na: fiombonana]

¹⁷For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.

¹⁷Satria iray ihany ny mofo, dia tena iray ihany isika na dia maro aza; fa isika rehetra dia samy mandray amin'izany mofo iray izany avokoa.

¹⁸Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?

¹⁸Indreo ny Isiraely araka ny nofo; moa izay mihinana ny fanatitra tsy mpiombona amin'ny alitara va?

¹⁹What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

¹⁹Inona ary no holazaiko? Mety ho zavatra va ny hena aterina amin'ny sampy, na mety ho zavatra va ny sampy?

²⁰But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

²⁰Tsia, fa izay zavatra aterin'ny jentilisa ho fanatitra, dia ateriny amin'ny demonia, fa tsy amin'Andriamanitra (Deo. 32. 17); koa tsy tiako ho mpiombona amin'ny demonia ianareo.

²¹Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.

²¹Tsy mahazo misotro amin'ny kapoaky ny Tompo sy ny kapoaky ny demonia ianareo; tsy mahazo mihinana amin'ny latabatry ny Tompo sy ny latabatry ny demonia ianareo.

²²Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?

²²Mampahasaro-piaro ny Tompo va isika? Mahery noho Izy va isika?

²³All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

²³Ny zavatra rehetra azo atao, nefa tsy ny zavatra rehetra no mahasoa; ny zavatra rehetra azo atao, nefa tsy ny zavatra rehetra no mampandroso.

²⁴Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.

²⁴Aoka tsy hisy olona hitady ny hahasoa ny tenany, fa ny hahasoa ny namany.

²⁵Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake:

²⁵Izay hena rehetra amidy eny an-tsena dia hano, fa aza manontany akory noho ny fieritreretana;

²⁶For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

²⁶fa an'i Jehovah ny tany sy izay rehetra eo aminy (Sal. 24. 1).

²⁷If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.

²⁷Ary raha misy amin'ny tsy mino manasa anareo, ka ta-handeha ianareo, dia hano izay arosony eo anoloanareo, fa aza manontany akory noho ny fieritreretana.

²⁸But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:

²⁸Fa raha misy manao aminareo hoe: Hena naterina tamin'ny sampy io, dia aza homana noho ny amin'ilay nilaza sy ny fieritreretana.

²⁹Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?

²⁹Fieritreretana, hoy izaho, tsy ny an'ny tenanano, fa ny an'ny olon-kafa; fa nahoana ny fahafahako no dia tsarain'ny fieritreretan'ny olon-kafa?

³⁰For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

³⁰Fa raha amin'ny fisaorana no andraisako izany, nahoana aho no tenenina ratsy amin'izay anaovako fisaorana?

³¹Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

³¹Koa amin'izany, na mihinana na misotro ianareo, na inona na inona ataonareo, dia ataovy ho voninahitr'Andriamanitra izany rehetra izany.

³²Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:

³²Aza manao izay hahatafintohina ny Jiosy na ny jentilisa na ny fiangonan'Andriamanitra,dia tahaka ahy koa manao izay hahafinaritra ny olona rehetra amin'ny zavatra rehetra ka tsy mitady ny mahasoa ahy ihany, fa ny mahasoa ny maro mba hovonjena izy.

³³Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.

³³dia tahaka ahy koa manao izay hahafinaritra ny olona rehetra amin'ny zavatra rehetra ka tsy mitady ny mahasoa ahy ihany, fa ny mahasoa ny maro mba hovonjena izy.
