1Now I make known unto you brethren, the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye received, wherein also ye stand,
1 Léegi nag bokk yi, maa ngi leen di fàttali xebaar bu baax bi ma leen yégal. Xebaar bu baax boobu, nangu ngeen ko te yéena ngi ciy sax.
2by which also ye are saved, if ye hold fast the word which I preached unto you, except ye believed in vain.
2 Ci moom ngeen jaare, ba mucc, bu ngeen téyee bu dëgër njàngale mi, ni ma leen ko yégale. Walla xanaa boog gëm ngeen ko cig neen?
3For I delivered unto you first of all that which also I received: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
3 Li ma jotoon, jottali naa leen ko, te moo jëkk ci maana yi: Kirist dee na ngir dindi sunuy bàkkaar, ni ko Mbind mi tërale,
4and that he was buried; and that he hath been raised on the third day according to the scriptures;
4 suul nañu ko, mu dekki ca ñetteelu fan ba, ni ko Mbind mi tërale.
5and that he appeared to Cephas; then to the twelve;
5 Feeñu na Sefas, teg ca fukki taalibe ya ak ñaar.
6then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain until now, but some are fallen asleep;
6 Gannaaw ga feeñu na lu ëpp juróomi téeméeri bokki taalibe ci benn yoon. Te ñu bare ci ñoom ñu ngi dund ba léegi, waaye am na ci ñu nelaw.
7then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles;
7 Ba noppi feeñu na Saag ak ndawi Kirist yépp.
8and last of all, as to the [child] untimely born, he appeared to me also.
8 Man nag la mujj a feeñu, ma mel ni liir bu judduwul ci jamonoom.
9For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.
9 Ndaxte maa gën a ñàkk solo ci ndawi Kirist yi, te yeyoowuma sax, ñu may wooye ndaw, man mi doon fitnaal mbooloom Yàlla.
10But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which was bestowed upon me was not found vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.
10 Waaye nag yiwu Yàlla moo tax ma doon li ma doon, te yiw, wi mu wone ci man, du cig neen. Waaye sax maa gën a liggéey ñi ci des ñépp: du ci man, waaye yiwu Yàlla, wiy jëf ci man, moo tax.
11Whether then [it be] I or they, so we preach, and so ye believed.
11 Noonu nag muy man muy ñoom, dénkaane boobu lanuy yégle, te moom ngeen gëm.
12Now if Christ is preached that he hath been raised from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?
12 Waaye su nu yéglee ne, Kirist dekki na, nan la ñenn ñi ci yéen man a waxe ne, néew yi duñu dekki?
13But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither hath Christ been raised:
13 Su fekkee ne ñi dee duñu dekki, kon Kirist it dekkiwul.
14and if Christ hath not been raised, then is our preaching vain, your faith also is vain.
14 Te su Kirist dekkiwul, sunu waare day neen, te it seen ngëm day neen.
15Yea, we are found false witnesses of God; because we witnessed of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead are not raised.
15 Rax-ca-dolli gis nañu ne, seedeel nanu Yàlla ay fen, ndaxte seede nanu ci mbiram ne, dekkal na Yeesu, te fekk dekkalu ko, su néew yi dul dekki.
16For if the dead are not raised, neither hath Christ been raised:
16 Su néew yi dul dekki, Kirist moom it dekkiwul.
17and if Christ hath not been raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
17 Te su Kirist dekkiwul, seen ngëm du am solo, ba tey yéena ngi ci seeni bàkkaar.
18Then they also that are fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
18 Te it ñi dee ba noppi ci Kirist sànku nañu.
19If we have only hoped in Christ in this life, we are of all men most pitiable.
19 Su fekkee ci giiru dund gii rekk la sunu yaakaar ci Kirist ame solo, kon noo gën a mat a yërëm ñépp.
20But now hath Christ been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of them that are asleep.
20 Waaye léegi Kirist dekki na, di ku jëkk a dekki, ni gub yi ñu jëkk a tànne ci ngóob mi, jagleel leen Yàlla.
21For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the resurrection of the dead.
21 Gannaaw ci nit la dee jaar, dugg àddina, kon it ci nit la ndekkite jaar.
22For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.
22 Kon ni ñépp deeye ci seen bokk ci Aadama, noonu la ñépp di dundaate ci seen bokk ci Kirist.
23But each in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; then they that are Christ's, at his coming.
23 Waaye ku nekk ak ayam. Kirist moo jëkk, mel ni gub yi ñu jëkk a tànne ci ngóob mi, ba noppi, bu Kirist dellusee, ñi bokk ci moom jël seen ay.
24Then [cometh] the end, when he shall deliver up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have abolished all rule and all authority and power.
24 Gannaaw ga, mujug jamono taxaw, te Kirist dina noot gépp kilifa ak bépp sañ-sañ ak doole, ba noppi delloo nguur gi kiy Yàlla di Baayam.
25For he must reign, till he hath put all his enemies under his feet.
25 Ndaxte fàww Kirist nguuru, ba kera Yàlla di daaneel noonam yépp ciy tànkam.
26The last enemy that shall be abolished is death.
26 Noon bu mujj, bi mu fiy jële, mooy dee.
27For, He put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he saith, All things are put in subjection, it is evident that he is excepted who did subject all things unto him.
27 Ndaxte Mbind mi nee na: «Yàlla nootal na ko lépp, mu teg ci tànk.» Waaye bu Mbind mi nee, «noot na lépp,» wóor na ne, moom mi ko nootal lépp, génne na ci boppam.
28And when all things have been subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all.
28 Léegi bu ñu ko nootalee lépp nag, moom Kirist muy Doom ji dina delloo kilifteef gi Yàlla, mi ko nootal lépp, ngir Yàlla nekk buur ci lépp.
29Else what shall they do that are baptized for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why then are they baptized for them?
29 Su ndekkite amul, kon ñi ñu sóob ci ndox ngir ñi dee, lu mu leen di jariñ? Su dekki amul, kon lu tax ñu leen di sóob ngir ñi dee?
30Why do we also stand in jeopardy every hour?
30 Te nun it lu tax fu nu tollu nu jaay sunu bakkan?
31I protest by that glorifying in you, brethren, which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
31 Bokk yi, ni ma damoo ci yéen ndax Yeesu Kirist, ni la ma wóore ne, bés bu nekk ma riisu dee.
32If after the manner of men I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me? If the dead are not raised, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.
32 Su fekkee ne ci ni ñu ko waxe, xeex naa ca dëkku Efes ak rabi àll, kon ban njariñ la may amal? Su néew yi dul woon dekki, am na lu ci léeb wax:«Nanu lekk di naan, ndaxte ëllëg dinanu dee.»
33Be not deceived: Evil companionships corrupt good morals.
33 Bu leen ko réere mbir: «Ànd bu bon dina yàq nit ku baax.»
34Awake to soberness righteously, and sin not; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak [this] to move you to shame.
34 Delloosileen xel yi te bàyyi bàkkaar, ndaxte am na ci yéen, ñu umple Yàlla. Kon war ngeen a rus!
35But some one will say, How are the dead raised? and with what manner of body do they come?
35 Waaye dina am kuy naan: «Nan la néew yi di dekkee? Wan yaram lañuy dellusee?»
36Thou foolish one, that which thou thyself sowest is not quickened except it die:
36 Yaa gàtt xel! Li ngay ji, du jebbi dund gu bees, fi ak deewul ba noppi.
37and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind;
37 Te li ngay ji du jëmmi gàncax giy ñëwi, waaye pepp kese la, maanaam dugub, walla weneen jiwu.
38but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
38 Noonu Yàlla jox ko jëmm ju ko neex, jiwu wu nekk ak jëmmam.
39All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one [flesh] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.
39 Jëmmi mbindeef yépp a wuute: nit ak jëmmam, mala, picc, jën — yu ci nekk ak sa jëmmi bopp.
40There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial is another.
40 Am na itam ay jëmm ca asamaan ak ay jëmm ci suuf. Leeru jëmm ca asamaan wuute na ak gi ci suuf.
41There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.
41 Jant bi, weer wi ak biddiiw, lu nekk ak sag leer. Te it leeru biddiiw bu nekk dina wuute ak moroomam.
42So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
42 Noonu la ndekkitel néew yi di deme. Bu ñu suulee néew bi, dañoo ji lu yàqu. Bu dekkee, du yàqooti ba abadan.
43it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
43 Lu ñàkk solo lañuy suul; mu dekki ak ndam. Lu néew doole lañuy suul, mu dekki ak kàttan.
44it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual [body].
44 Bu ñu koy suul, yaram lay doon wu soloo woon ruu. Bu dekkee, doon yaram wu soloo ndamu Xelum Yàlla. Ndegam am na yaram wu soloo ruu, kon dina am yaram wu soloo ndamu Xelum Yàlla.
45So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.
45 Mbind mi nee na: «Nit ku jëkk ka, Aadama, doon na boroom ruu,» waaye Aadama mu mujj mi doon na Xel muy joxe dund.
46Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual.
46 Yaram wi soloo ndamu Xelum Yàlla jiituwul; yaramu doom Aadama moo jiitu; yaramu ndam li moo ci topp.
47The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven.
47 Nit ku jëkk ka pëndu suuf la woon; ñaareelu nit ki di Kirist, mi ngi jóge asamaan.
48As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
48 Waa àddina yor nañu jëmmi nit, ki ñu sàkke ci suuf; noonu it ñi bokk ci asamaan dinañu yor melokaanu ki jóge ci asamaan.
49And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
49 Te ni nu yore melokaanu ki ñu sàkke ci suuf, noonu lanuy yoreji melokaanu ki jóge ca asamaan.
50Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
50 Li may wax nag bokk yi, moo di ne, sunu yaram wii mënul a am wàll ci nguuru Yàlla, te lu yàqu mënul a am wàll ci liy sax abadan.
51Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
51 Lii ma leen di xamal, mbóotu Yàlla la. Dégluleen, dunu jaar ci dee nun ñépp, waaye nun ñépp dinanu soppiku,
52in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
52 ci saa su gàtt, ci xef-ak-xippi, bu liit gu mujj gi jibee. Ndax liit gi dina jib, néew yi dekki, di dund abadan, te nun dinanu soppiku.
53For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
53 Yaram wu yàqu war na sol jëmm ja dul yàqooti, te yaram wiy dee sol dund gu sax abadan.
54But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
54 Bu li yàqu solee melokaanu li dul yàqu, te liy dee sol melokaanu liy sax abadan, kon lii ñu wax ci Mbind mi mat:«Yàlla noot na dee, ba labal ko ci ndamam.
55O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
55 Céy yaw dee! Ana sa ndam?Céy yaw dee! Ana sa daŋar ji ngay fitte?»
56The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
56 Daŋaru dee mooy bàkkaar, te dooley bàkkaar mooy Yoon wi.
57but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
57 Waaye jërë-jëf yaw Yàlla, ji nu jox ndam li jaarale ko ci sunu Boroom Yeesu Kirist!
58Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord.
58 Kon nag sama bokk yi ma sopp, nangeen takku, sampu ba dëgër, te gën a sawar ci liggéeyu Boroom bi, xam ne seen liggéey, bi jëm ci Boroom bi, du neen.
