¹Ex inhermân, lâin nacuaj nak texc'oxlak ca'ch'inak chirix li c'a'ru que'xc'ul li kaxe'tônil yucua' nak que'el sa' li tenamit Egipto. Li Dios quixtakla li chok chi c'amoc be chiruheb ut chixjunileb que'nume' jun pac'al li Caki Palau nak quixjach rib re te'numek'.

¹Ndugu, nataka mjue kwamba babu zetu wote walikuwa chini ya ulinzi wa lile wingu, na kwamba wote walivuka salama ile bahari.

²Chanchan nak que'cube xha'eb sa' li chok ut sa' li Caki Palau ut riq'uin a'an que'xc'ul xch'ôleb nak laj Moisés tâc'amok be chiruheb.

²Wote walibatizwa katika umoja na Mose kwa lile wingu na ile bahari.

³Ut chixjunileb que'xcua' li maná li choxahil cua li quixtakla chak li Dios.

³Wote walikula chakula kilekile cha kiroho,

⁴Chixjunileb que'ruc' li ha' li quiq'uehe' reheb xban li Dios. Li ha' a'an qui-el chak sa' li sakônac. Ut li sakônac a'an, a'an retalil li Cristo li qui-ochbenin reheb nak yôqueb chi numec' sa' li chaki ch'och'.

⁴wakanywa pia kinywaji kilekile cha kiroho, maana walikunywa kutoka ule mwamba wa kiroho uliowafuata; mwamba huo ulikuwa Kristo mwenyewe.

⁵Abanan moco chixjunileb ta que'xbânu jo' naraj li Dios. Lix q'uialeb que'xk'et râtin li Dios ut xban nak inc'a' que'xbânu jo' naraj li Dios, jo'can nak que'cam sa' li chaki ch'och' ut inc'a' que'oc sa' li tenamit Canaán.

⁵Hata hivyo, wengi wao hawakumpendeza Mungu, na maiti zao zilisambazwa jangwani.

⁶Chixjunil a'an nac'utuc chiku nak inc'a' takarahi ru li inc'a' us jo' que'xbânu eb a'an.

⁶Sasa, mambo hayo yote ni mfano tu kwetu; yanatuonya sisi tusitamani ubaya kama wao walivyotamani.

⁷A'an naxc'ut chiku nak inc'a' takalok'oni li yîbanbil dios jo' que'xbânu eb a'an. Jo'ca'in tz'îbanbil sa' li Santil Hu chirixeb: Eb li tenamit que'cua'ac ut que'uc'ac ut que'xajoc re xlok'oninquil li cuacax oro. (Ex. 32:6)

⁷Msiwe waabudu sanamu kama baadhi yao walivyokuwa; kama yasemavyo Maandiko: "Watu waliketi kula na kunywa, wakasimama kucheza."

⁸Ut naxc'ut ajcui' chiku nak inc'a' us li co'bêtac yumbêtac jo' que'xbânu eb a'an ut chiru jun cutan quilaje'cam oxib xca'c'âl mil chi tenamit xban li mâusilal que'xbânu.

⁸Wala tusizini kama baadhi yao walivyozini, wakaangamia siku moja watu ishirini na tatu elfu.

⁹Mikaq'ue xjosk'il li Kâcua' Dios jo' que'xbânu eb a'an nak que'xbânu li mâusilal ut que'ti'e' xbaneb li c'anti' li quixtakla li Kâcua' Dios ut que'cam.

⁹Tusimjaribu Bwana kama baadhi yao walivyomjaribu, wakauawa na nyoka.

¹⁰Chi moco tocuech'ok, jo' que'xbânu eb a'an. Ut xbaneb lix mâusilal que'camsîc xban li ángel li quixtakla chak li Dios.

¹⁰Wala msinung'unike kama baadhi yao walivyonung'unika, wakaangamizwa na Mwangamizi!

¹¹Li c'a'ru que'xc'ul li kaxe'tônil yucua' a'an tz'îbanbil retalil sa' li Santil Hu re nak lâo takaq'ue retal ut inc'a' takabânu jo' que'xbânu eb a'an xban nak cuulac re li roso'jic li cutan.

¹¹Basi, mambo hayo yaliyowapata wao ni kielelezo kwa wengine, na yaliandikwa ili kutuonya sisi, ambao mwisho wa nyakati unatukabili.

¹²Jo'can nak li ani narec'a nak cau xch'ôl sa' lix pâbâl chixq'uehak retal lix yu'am re nak inc'a' tâoc chi mâcobc.

¹²Anayedhani amesimama imara ajihadhari asianguke.

¹³Majaribu mliyokwisha pata ni ya kawaida kwa binadamu. Mungu ni mwaminifu, naye hataruhusu mjaribiwe kupita nguvu zenu, ila pamoja na majaribu, yeye atawapeni pia nguvu ya kustahimili na njia ya kutoka humo salama.

¹⁴Jo'can ut ex inhermân, rarôquex inban, mêlok'oni chic li jalanil dios.

¹⁴Kwa hiyo, wapenzi wangu, epeni ibada za sanamu.

¹⁵Lâin ninch'olob xyâlal chêru xban nak cuan êna'leb. Ut lâex naru têye ma us li ninye malaj inc'a'.

¹⁵Naongea nanyi, watu wenye busara; jiamulieni wenyewe hayo nisemayo.

Ut nak nakatzaca li caxlan cua li najachiman, ¿ma inc'a' ta bi' junajo riq'uin li Cristo xban nak quicam chiru li cruz sa' kac'aba'?

¹⁶Tunapomshukuru Mungu kwa kikombe kile cha baraka, je, huwa hatushiriki damu ya Kristo? Na tunapoumega mkate, je, huwa hatushiriki mwili wa Kristo?

¹⁷Usta nabalo, jun ajcui' li caxlan cua najachiman ut nakacuotzi. A'an retalil nak lâo junajo chic riq'uin li Cristo.

¹⁷Kwa kuwa mkate huo ni mmoja, sisi, ingawa ni wengi, tu mwili mmoja; maana sote twashiriki mkate huohuo.

¹⁸Cheq'ue retal laj Israel. Eb a'an que'xtzaca li tib li que'xmayeja chiru li Dios. A'an retalil nak cuanqueb chi sum âtin riq'uin li Dios.

¹⁸Chukueni, kwa mfano, Wayahudi wenyewe: kwao, wenye kula vilivyotambikiwa madhabahuni waliungana na hiyo madhabahu.

¹⁹¿C'a'ru xyâlal li yôquin chixyebal? ¿Ma yo'yo ta bi' li yîbanbil dios? Inc'a'. Ut, ¿ma cuan ta bi' xcuanquil li tib li namayejâc chiruheb? Mâc'a' xban nak mâc'a' xcuanquil li yîbanbil dios.

¹⁹Nataka kusema nini, basi? Kwamba chakula kilichotambikiwa sanamu ni kitu zaidi ya chakula? Na hizo sanamu, je, ni kitu kweli zaidi ya sanamu?

²⁰Lâin inc'a' ninye nak cuan xcuanquil li yîbanbil dios, chi moco ninye nak li mayejanbil tib cuan xcuanquil.

Ut lâin inc'a' nacuaj nak yôkex chi oquênc sa' lix na'lebeb li mâus aj musik'ej.

²⁰Hata kidogo! Ninachosema ni kwamba tambiko wanazotoa watu wasiomjua Mungu wanawatolea pepo, sio Mungu. Sipendi kamwe ninyi muwe na ushirika na pepo.

²¹Inc'a' naru têruc' xsa' li sec' re xjulticanquil xcamic li Kâcua' Jesús, ut têruc' ajcui' xsa' li sec' re xq'uebal xlok'al li mâus aj musik'ej. Chi moco naru têcua' li caxlan cua re xjulticanquil xcamic li Kâcua' Jesucristo ut têcua' ajcui' li cua mayejanbil chiruheb li mâus aj musik'ej.

²¹Hamwezi kunywa kikombe cha Bwana na kikombe cha pepo; hamwezi kushiriki katika meza ya Bwana na katika meza ya pepo.

²²Inc'a' us cui takaq'ue xjosk'il li Kâcua' riq'uin xlok'oninquil li yîbanbil dios. ¿Ma lâo ta bi' nim kacuanquil chiru li Kâcua'? Mâ jok'e xban nak lâo mâc'a' kacuanquil.

²²Au je, tunataka kumfanya Bwana awe na wivu? Mnadhani tuna nguvu zaidi kuliko yeye?

²³Cuan li neque'yehoc re nak naru nakabânu chixjunil li nakaj. Yâl nak naru nakabânu, abanan moco chixjunil ta us xbânunquil. Yâl nak naru xbânunquil chixjunil, abanan moco chixjunil ta li c'a'ru nakabânu nocoxtenk'a chi q'uîc sa' li kapâbâl.

²³Vitu vyote ni halali, lakini si vyote vinafaa. Vitu vyote ni halali lakini si vyote vinajenga.

²⁴Mêsic' li us ca'aj cui' chok' êre lâex. Chesic' aj ban cui' li us chok' reheb lê ras êrîtz'in.

²⁴Mtu asitafute faida yake mwenyewe, ila faida ya mwenzake.

²⁵Kuleni chochote kile kiuzwacho sokoni bila ya kuulizauliza kwa sababu ya dhamiri zenu;

²⁶Naru têtzaca xban nak li Kâcua' Dios a'an laj êchal re li ruchich'och' ut a'an ajcui' laj êchal re chixjunil li cuan sa' ruchich'och'.

²⁶maana Maandiko yasema: "Dunia na vyote vilivyomo ni mali ya Bwana."

²⁷Cui junak mâcua' aj pâbanel tatxbok chi cua'ac riq'uin ut cui naxc'ul âch'ôl xic riq'uin, li c'a'ru tixq'ue chatzaca, chac'ul. Abanan inc'a' tâpatz' ma mayejanbil li tzacaêmk a'an re nak mâc'a'ak âc'a'ux nak tâtzaca.

²⁷Kama mtu ambaye si muumini akiwaalikeni nanyi mkakubali kwenda, basi, kuleni vyote atakavyowaandalieni bila kuulizauliza kwa sababu ya dhamiri zenu.

²⁸A'ut cui junak naxye âcue nak li tzacaêmk a'an mayejanbil chiru li yîbanbil dios, inc'a' tâtzaca a'an re nak inc'a' tâch'inâk xch'ôl li xyehoc âcue nak mayejanbil tzacaêmk ut re ajcui' nak inc'a' tâoc xc'a'ux.

²⁸Lakini mtu akiwaambieni: "Chakula hiki kimetambikiwa sanamu," basi, kwa ajili ya huyo aliyewaambieni hivyo na kwa ajili ya dhamiri, msile.

²⁹Inc'a' yôquin chixyebal a'in chirix lâ c'a'ux lâat. Yôquin chi âtinac re nak inc'a' tâch'inânk xch'ôl li jun chic âban lâat. Mâre junak êre tâchak'ok ut tixye cue, ¿c'a'ut nak inc'a' tinbânu li naru tinbânu yal xban nak jalan chic naxye nak inc'a' us xbânunquil?

²⁹Nasema, "kwa ajili ya dhamiri," si dhamiri yenu, bali dhamiri yake huyo aliyewaambieni. Mtaniuliza: "Kwa nini uhuru wangu utegemee dhamiri ya mtu mwingine?

³⁰Ut cui lâin nintioxin chirix li c'a'ru nintzaca, ¿c'a'ut nak tâcuech'îk rix li c'a'ru tintzaca? cha'ak.

³⁰Ikiwa mimi nashiriki chakula hicho huku namshukuru Mungu, kwa nini nilaumiwe kwa chakula ambacho kwa ajili yake nimemshukuru Mungu?"

³¹Lâin tinye êre lix yâlal. Chixjunil li c'a'ru têtzaca ut chixjunil li c'a'ru têbânu, chebânuhak re xq'uebal xlok'al li Kâcua' Dios.

³¹Basi, chochote mfanyacho iwe ni kula au kunywa, fanyeni yote kwa ajili ya utukufu wa Mungu.

³²Mêbânu li c'a'ak re ru napo'oc xch'ôleb lê ras êrîtz'in usta aj judío, usta mâcua'eb aj judío.

³²Msiwe kikwazo kwa Wayahudi au kwa Wagiriki au kwa kanisa la Mungu.

³³Jo'can nak lâin ninyal ink'e chixbânunquil li us re xtenk'anquil chixjunileb. Lâin inc'a' yôquin chixsic'bal li us chok' cue lâin injunes. Yôquin ban chixsic'bal li us chok' reheb chixjunileb re nak târûk te'colek'.

³³Muwe kama mimi; najaribu kuwapendeza wote kwa kila njia, bila kutafuta faida yangu mwenyewe ila faida ya wote, wapate kuokolewa.
