¹Be my imitators, even as *I* also [am] of Christ.

¹Aoka hanahaka ahy ianareo, dia tahaka ny anahafako an'i Kristy.

²Now I praise you, that in all things ye are mindful of me; and that as I have directed you, ye keep the directions.

²[Ny amin'ny tokony hisaronan'ny vehivavy loha ao am-piangonana] Ary midera anareo aho, satria mahatsiaro ahy amin'ny zavatra rehetra ianareo sady mitana tsara ny fampianarana natolotra, araka ny nanolorako azy taminareo.

³But I wish you to know that the Christ is the head of every man, but woman's head [is] the man, and the Christ's head God.

³Ary tiako ho fantatrareo fa Kristy no lohan'ny lehilahy rehetra; ary ny lehilahy kosa no lohan'ny vehivavy; ary Andriamanitra no lohan'i Kristy.

⁴Every man praying or prophesying, having [anything] on his head, puts his head to shame.

⁴Ny lehilahy rehetra, raha mivavaka na maminany ka misaron-doha, dia mahafa-boninahitra ny lohany.

⁵But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered puts her own head to shame; for it is one and the same as a shaved [woman].

⁵Fa ny vehivavy rehetra kosa, raha mivavaka na maminany ka tsy misaron-doha, dia mahafa-boninahitra ny lohany, satria toy ny voaharatra izy.

⁶For if a woman be not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if [it be] shameful to a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, let her be covered.

⁶Fa raha tsy misaron-doha ny vehivavy, dia aoka hohetezana izy; fa raha mahamenatra ny vehivavy ny hohetezana na ny hoharatana, dia aoka hisaron-doha izy.

⁷For man indeed ought not to have his head covered, being God's image and glory; but woman is man's glory.

⁷Ny lehilahy dia tokony tsy hisaron-doha, satria endrika sy voninahitr'Andriamanitra izy; fa ny vehivavy kosa no voninahitry ny lehilahy.

⁸For man is not of woman, but woman of man.

⁸Fa tsy ny vehivavy no nihavian'ny lehilahy; fa ny lehilahy no nihavian'ny vehivavy.

⁹For also man was not created for the sake of the woman, but woman for the sake of the man.

⁹Fa tsy ny lehilahy no natao ho an'ny vehivavy, fa ny vehivavy no ho an'ny lehilahy.

¹⁰Therefore ought the woman to have authority on her head, on account of the angels.

¹⁰Izany no mahamety ny vehivavy hisaron-doha noho ny amin'ny anjely. [Gr. hanana fahefana eo amin'ny lohany]

¹¹However, neither [is] woman without man, nor man without woman, in [the] Lord.

¹¹Kanefa ao amin'ny Tompo tsy misy vehivavy raha tsy misy lehilahy, ary tsy misy lehilahy raha tsy misy vehivavy.

¹²For as the woman [is] of the man, so also [is] the man by the woman, but all things of God.

¹²Fa toy ny nihavian'ny vehivavy avy tamin'ny lehilahy, dia toy izany koa no nihavian'ny lehilahy avy tamin'ny vehivavy; fa Andriamanitra kosa no ihavian'ny zavatra rehetra.

¹³Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman should pray to God uncovered?

¹³Hevero ao am-ponareo: Mendrika va raha mivavaka amin'Andriamanitra ka tsy misaron-doha ny vehivavy?

¹⁴Does not even nature itself teach you, that man, if he have long hair, it is a dishonour to him?

¹⁴Tsy mampianatra anareo va izao fomban'ny zavatra rehetra izao fa raha lava volo ny lehilahy, dia mahafa-boninahitra azy izany?

¹⁵But woman, if she have long hair, [it is] glory to her; for the long hair is given [to her] in lieu of a veil.

¹⁵Fa raha lava volo kosa ny vehivavy, dia voninahitra ho azy izany fa ny volo no nomena azy ho fisaronana.

¹⁶But if any one think to be contentious, *we* have no such custom, nor the assemblies of God.

¹⁶Fa raha misy olona toa tia ady, dia tsy manana izany fanao izany isika, na ny fiangonan'Andriamanitra.

¹⁷But [in] prescribing [to you on] this [which I now enter on], I do not praise, [namely,] that ye come together, not for the better, but for the worse.

¹⁷[Ny amin'ny Fanasan'ny Tompo] Ary raha manao izao didy izao aho, dia tsy midera anareo tsy akory, satria tsy miangona hihatsara ianareo, fa hiharatsy.

¹⁸For first, when ye come together in assembly, I hear there exist divisions among you, and I partly give credit [to it].

¹⁸Fa voalohany indrindra, raha miangona ao am-piangonana ianareo, dia reko fa misy fisarahana eo aminareo; ary mba misy inoako ihany izany.

¹⁹For there must also be sects among you, that the approved may become manifest among you.

¹⁹Fa tsy maintsy misy fitokoana eo aminareo, mba haseho eo aminareo izay olona ankasitrahana.

²⁰When ye come therefore together into one place, it is not to eat [the] Lord's supper.

²⁰Koa raha miangona ianareo, dia tsy misy hihinanana ny Fanasan'ny Tompo akory.

²¹For each one in eating takes his *own* supper before [others], and one is hungry and another drinks to excess.

²¹Fa raha mihinana ianareo, dia samy homana ny sakafony avy aloha ianareo; koa ny anankiray dia noana, fa ny anankiray kosa mamo.

²²Have ye not then houses for eating and drinking? or do ye despise the assembly of God, and put to shame them who have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this [point] I do not praise.

²²Moa tsy manan-trano hihinanana sy hisotroana va ianareo? Sa manao tsinontsinona ny fiangonan'Andriamanitra ka manome henatra ny tsy manana? Inona no holazaiko aminareo? Hidera anareo va aho? Tsy hidera anareo amin'izany aho.

²³For *I* received from the Lord, that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was delivered up, took bread,

²³Fa izaho efa nandray tamin'ny Tompo izay natolotro anareo kosa, fa Jesosy Tompo tamin'iny alina iny izay namadihana Azy, dia nandray mofo,

²⁴and having given thanks broke [it], and said, This is my body, which [is] for you: this do in remembrance of me.

²⁴ary rehefa nisaotra Izy, dia novakiny, ka hoy Izy: Ity no tenako ho anareo; izao no ataovy ho fahatsiarovana Ahy. [ Ampio hoe: [izay vakina]

²⁵In like manner also the cup, after having supped, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do, as often as ye shall drink [it], in remembrance of me.

²⁵Dia araka izany koa ny kapoaka, rehefa nihinana, dia hoy Izy: Ity kapoaka ity no ilay fanekena vaovao amin'ny rako; izao no ataovy ho fahatsiarovana Ahy, na oviana na oviana no misotro ianareo.

²⁶For as often as ye shall eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye announce the death of the Lord, until he come.

²⁶Fa na oviana na oviana ianareo no mihinana itony mofo itony sy misotro amin'ny kapoaka, dia manambara ny fahafatesan'ny Tompo ianareo mandra-pihaviny.

²⁷So that whosoever shall eat the bread, or drink the cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty in respect of the body and of the blood of the Lord.

²⁷Koa na zovy an zovy no mihinana ny mofo sy misotro amin'ny kapoaky ny Tompo amin'ny fanahy tsy mendrika, dia ho meloka ny amin'ny tena sy ny ran'ny Tompo izy.

²⁸But let a man prove himself, and thus eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

²⁸Fa aoka ny olona hamantatra ny tenany, dia aoka izy hihinana ny mofo sy hisotro amin'ny kapoaka.

²⁹For [the] eater and drinker eats and drinks judgment to himself, not distinguishing the body.

²⁹Fa izay rehetra mihinana sy misotro dia mihinana sy misotro fanamelohana ho an'ny tenany, raha tsy mamantatra ny tena izy.

³⁰On this account many among you [are] weak and infirm, and a good many are fallen asleep.

³⁰Noho izany dia betsaka no marary sy marofy eo aminareo, ary maro ihany no efa nodi-mandry.

³¹But if we judged ourselves, so were we not judged.

³¹Fa raha mba mamantatra ny tenantsika isika, dia tsy mba hotsaraina.

³²But being judged, we are disciplined of [the] Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

³²Fa raha tsaraina isika, dia faizan'ny Tompo mba tsy hohelohina miaraka amin'izao tontolo izao.

³³So that, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait for one another.

³³Koa raha miangona hihinana ianareo, ry rahalahy, dia mifampiandrasa. [ Na: mifampizarà]Ary raha misy olona noana, aoka izy hihinana no an-tranony, mba tsy hiangonanareo ho fahamelohana. Ary ny zavatra sisa dia halahatro, rehefa tonga aho.

³⁴If any one be hungry, let him eat at home, that ye may not come together for judgment. But the other things, whenever I come, I will set in order.

³⁴Ary raha misy olona noana, aoka izy hihinana no an-tranony, mba tsy hiangonanareo ho fahamelohana. Ary ny zavatra sisa dia halahatro, rehefa tonga aho.
