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

¹Followers of me become ye, as I also [am] of Christ.

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.

²And I praise you, brethren, that in all things ye remember me, and according as I did deliver to you, the deliverances ye keep,

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.

³and I wish you to know that of every man the head is the Christ, and the head of a woman is the husband, and the head of Christ is God.

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

⁴Every man praying or prophesying, having the head covered, doth dishonour his head,

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

⁵and every woman praying or prophesying with the head uncovered, doth dishonour her own head, for it is one and the same thing with her being shaven,

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.

⁶for if a woman is not covered — then let her be shorn, and if [it is] a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven — let her be covered;

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

⁷for a man, indeed, ought not to cover the head, being the image and glory of God, and a woman is the glory of a man,

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

⁸for a man is not of a woman, but a woman [is] of a man,

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

⁹for a man also was not created because of the woman, but a woman because of the man;

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

¹⁰because of this the woman ought to have [a token of] authority upon the head, because of the messengers;

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

¹¹but neither [is] a man apart from a woman, nor a woman apart from a man, in the Lord,

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.

¹²for as the woman [is] of the man, so also the man [is] through the woman, and the all things [are] of God.

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

¹³In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God?

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

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

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

¹⁵and a woman, if she have long hair, a glory it is to her, because the hair instead of a covering hath been given to her;

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

¹⁶and if any one doth think to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the assemblies of God.

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.

¹⁷And this declaring, I give no praise, because not for the better, but for the worse ye come together;

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

¹⁸for first, indeed, ye coming together in an assembly, I hear of divisions being among you, and partly I believe [it],

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

¹⁹for it behoveth sects also to be among you, that those approved may become manifest among you;

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

²⁰ye, then, coming together at the same place — it is not to eat the Lord`s supper;

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

²¹for each his own supper doth take before in the eating, and one is hungry, and another is drunk;

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.

²²why, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or the assembly of God do ye despise, and shame those not having? what may I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I do not praise!

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

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

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

²⁴and having given thanks, he brake, and said, `Take ye, eat ye, this is my body, that for you is being broken; this do ye — to the 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.

²⁵In like manner also the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do ye, as often as ye may drink [it] — to the remembrance of me;`

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.

²⁶for as often as ye may eat this bread, and this cup may drink, the death of the Lord ye do shew forth — till he may come;

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.

²⁷so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, guilty he shall be of the body and blood of the Lord:

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

²⁸and let a man be proving himself, and so of the bread let him eat, and of the cup let him drink;

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

²⁹for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, judgment to himself he doth eat and drink — not discerning the body of the Lord.

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

³⁰Because of this, among you many [are] weak and sickly, and sleep do many;

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

³¹for if ourselves we were discerning, we would not be being judged,

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

³²and being judged by the Lord, we are chastened, that with the world we may not be condemned;

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.

³³so then, my brethren, coming together to eat, for one another wait ye;

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.

³⁴and if any one is hungry, at home let him eat, that to judgment ye may not come together; and the rest, whenever I may come, I shall arrange.
