¹Paula, Pathian deihlama Jesu Kris sawltaka sap leh i unaupa Sostheni,

¹Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

²Korinth khua a Pathian saptuam omte, Kris Jesu a sehtuam, gam chiha I Toupa, amau leh eite Toupa, Jesu Kris min lou tengteng toh misiangthou hi dinga sapte kiangah:

²Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's:

³Pathian I Pa leh Toupa Jesu Kris kianga kipan hehpihna leh lemna na kiang uah om hen.

³Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

⁴Kris Jesu a Pathian hehpihna na kiang ua hongkipia jiakin na tung thu uah Pathian kiangah kipahthu ka gen gige hi;

⁴I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

⁵Bangkimah thugen peuhmah ah leh theihna chi tengah, amaha hihhauhin na om uh.

⁵That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;

⁶Huchibangin Kris thu ka theihsak pen noumau ah hihkipin a om hi;

⁶Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

⁷Huan, i Toupa Jesu Kris kilakna ngak kawmin, khalam thilpiak himhim na tasam kei uhi;

⁷So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

⁸Aman, i Toupa Jesu Kris ni chia gensiat beia na omna ding un, a tawp phain a honhihkip behlap ding hi.

⁸Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁹Pathian, a Tapa Jesu Kris i Toupa kithuahpihnaa nou honsam lutpa, a muanhuai hi.

⁹God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

¹⁰Huan, unaute aw, na vek un thu kibang na gen ua, na lak ua kikhenna himhim a om louhna dingin lungsim munkhat leh ngaihtuah munkhata diktaka na kizop chinten jawkna ding un Toupa Jesu Kris minin kon ngen ahi.

¹⁰Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

¹¹Ka unaute aw, na tungtangthu uh, na lak uah kiselna bang a om chih Kloi inkuanpihten honhilh ua.

¹¹For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

¹²Hiai ka chihna ahi, mi tengtengin, Kei Paula pawl ka hi, Kei jaw Apolla pawl ka hi, Kei jaw Kifa pawl ka hi, Kei jaw Kris pawl ka hi, na chih vengvung uh.

¹²Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

¹³Kris khenin a om ahia? Paula na sik un kilhdenin a om ahia? Ahihkeileh Paula mina baptisin na om ua hia?

¹³Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

¹⁴Krispa leh Gaia loungal na lak uah mi kuamah kon baptis louh jiakin Pathian kiangah kipahthu ka gen jel ahi;

¹⁴I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;

¹⁵Huchi hikei leh jaw min keimah mina baptis na hi uh a chi kha ding uhi.

¹⁵Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.

¹⁶Stephan inkuanpihte bel ka baptis ngeia, tuate loujaw mi dang ka baptis hiam ka theikei.

¹⁶And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

¹⁷Kris in baptis dingin honsawl ngal keia, Tanchin Hoih gen dingin honsawl jaw ahi; thu pila gen louin, huchilou injaw Kris kros thilhihtheihna bangmah lou a suaksak kha ding uhi.

¹⁷For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

¹⁸Kros thu jaw mangthang lelte adin haina ahi ngala; eite hotdam lelte adin bel Pathian thilhihtheihna ahi jaw hi.

¹⁸For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

¹⁹Mi pil pilna ka hihmang dinga, lemthei lemtheihna leng ka paikhe ding, chih gelh ahi ngal a.

¹⁹For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

²⁰Mipil koiah ahia? Laigelhmi koiah ahia? Hiai khovela selhatmi koiah ahia? Pathianin khovel pilna haihuai ahi chih a theisak kei ahia?

²⁰Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

²¹Pathian pilna ah bel, khovelin a pilna zanga Pathian a theihtheih louh nungin thugen haihuai zanga a gingtate hotdam tuh a kipahlam ahi.

²¹For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

²²Judaten chiamtehnate a phut nak ua, Grikten pilna a zong nak uhi.

²²For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

²³Eiten bel Kris kilhden thu i gen jel ua; huai tuh Judate adin pukna, Jentelte adin haina ahi a;

²³But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

²⁴Himahleh Judate leng hi hen aw, Grikte leng hi heh, sapte adin jaw Kris, Pathian thilhihtheihna leh Pathian pilna pen ahi.

²⁴But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

²⁵Pathian haina mihing sangin a piljaw a, Pathian hatlouhna leng huai mihing sangin a hat jaw nak nak hi.

²⁵Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

²⁶Unaute aw, a honsapna ngaihtuah dih ua, salama mi pil tampite, mi hat tampite, mi hoih pipite, sap a hih louhdan uh:

²⁶For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

²⁷Himahleh, Pathian in khovel thil haite a tel jaw a, mi pilte a zahlaksak theihna dingin; huan Pathianin khovel thil hatloute a tela, a hatte a zahlak sak theihna dingin;

²⁷But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

²⁸Khovel thil niam leh thil siammohhuaite, thil omloute toh tanin Pathian in a tela, thil omte bangmah loua a bawl theihna dingin;

²⁸And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

²⁹Huchiin, Pathian maah mi kuamah a kiuangsak theikei ding uh.

²⁹That no flesh should glory in his presence.

³⁰Amah tuh Kris-a noute hinna nak ahi; huan Pathianin Kris tuh i pilna bang, I diktatna bang, i sianthouna bang, i tatna bang hi dingin a bawlta;Huaijiakin, gelh ahih bangin, a suang peuhmahin Toupa suang hen.

³⁰But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:

³¹Huaijiakin, gelh ahih bangin, a suang peuhmahin Toupa suang hen.

³¹That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
