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

¹Nekk Bulus, iwumi i d-issawel Sidi Ṛebbi s lebɣi-ines iwakken ad iliɣ d amceggeɛ n Ɛisa Lmasiḥ akk-d gma-tneɣ Sustin,

²to the assembly of God which is at Corinth; those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:

²i tejmaɛt n Sidi Ṛebbi i gellan di temdint n Kurintus, i wid i d-yextaṛ Sidi Ṛebbi s Ɛisa Lmasiḥ ad ilin d imqedsen, d wid akk yellan di mkul amkan ineddhen s yisem n Sidna Ɛisa Lmasiḥ, i gellan d Ssid-nsen d Ssid nneɣ :

³Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

³ṛṛeḥma ț-țalwit a wen-d țțunefkent s ɣuṛ Ṛebbi Baba-tneɣ akk-d Sidna Ɛisa Lmasiḥ.

⁴I always thank my God concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;

⁴Zgiɣ țḥemmideɣ Sidi Ṛebbi fell-awen ɣef ṛṛeḥma i wen-d-yefka s Ɛisa Lmasiḥ,

⁵that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge;

⁵axaṭer yis i kkun-id yeṛzeq s mkul lxiṛ, ama s wawal-is ama s tmusni-ines,

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

⁶imi cchada ɣef Lmasiḥ tṛeṣṣa nezzeh deg-wen.

⁷so that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;

⁷Daymi ur kkun-ixuṣṣ wacemma n lxiṛ s ɣuṛ Ṛebbi, kunwi yețṛaǧun ass i deg ara d-yuɣal Ssid-nneɣ.

⁸who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

⁸A kkun isseǧhed alamma ț-țaggara iwakken a d-tbanem mbla lɛib ass n tuɣalin n Ɛisa Lmasiḥ.

⁹God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.

⁹Sidi Ṛebbi yețțaṭaf deg wawal-is ; d nețța i wen-d-issawlen iwakken aț-țɛicem s tdukli akk-d Mmi-s, Ɛisa Lmasiḥ Ssid-nneɣ.

¹⁰Now I beg you, brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

¹⁰Ay atmaten, a kkun-nhuɣ s yisem n Ssid-nneɣ Ɛisa Lmasiḥ : msefhamet wway gar-awen, ur ilaq ara a d-yili beṭṭu gar-awen, ddukklet, sɛut yiwen uxemmem d yiwen n ṛṛay.

¹¹For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions among you.

¹¹Axaṭer ay atmaten, irgazen n wexxam n Kluwi ṣṣawḍen-iyi-d lexbaṛ belli ițțili-d umennuɣ gar-awen.

¹²Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

¹²Ayen bɣiɣ a d-iniɣ : sliɣ belli llan gar-awen wid yeqqaṛen :« nekk ddiɣ d Bulus », ma d wayeḍ yeqqaṛ : « nekk țekkiɣ d Abulus », wayeḍ daɣen : « nekk ddiɣ d Buṭrus », llan daɣen wid yeqqaṛen : « nekk țekkiɣ di Lmasiḥ ».

¹³Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?

¹³Amek akka, tɣilem Lmasiḥ yebḍa ? Eɛni d Bulus i gețwasemmṛen fell-awen neɣ s yisem n Bulus i tețwaɣeḍsem ?

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

¹⁴Ad ḥemmdeɣ Ṛebbi imi ur sɣeḍseɣ ula d yiwen deg-wen anagar Krisbus d Gayus.

¹⁵so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.

¹⁵Akka, yiwen deg-wen ur izmir a d-yini belli yețwaɣḍes s yisem-iw.

¹⁶(I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptized any other.)

¹⁶Tella daɣen twacult n Stifanas, d nekk i ț-isɣeḍsen meɛna ur ḥsiɣ ara sɣeḍseɣ yiwen nniḍen dinna.

¹⁷For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

¹⁷Lmasiḥ ur iyi-d-iceggeɛ ara iwakken ad sɣeḍseɣ meɛna iceggeɛ iyi-d ad beccṛeɣ lexbaṛ n lxiṛ ; mačči s yimeslayen i d-yekkan si lefhama n wemdan iwakken ur tekkseɣ ara lqima i lmut n Lmasiḥ ɣef wumidag.

¹⁸For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are saved it is the power of God.

¹⁸Ț-țideț, abecceṛ n lmut n Lmasiḥ ɣef wumidag ț-țidderwect i wid iḍaɛen ; meɛna ɣuṛ-nneɣ nukni yellan deg webrid n leslak, ț-țazmert n Ṛebbi.

¹⁹For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.” Isaiah 29:14

¹⁹Atan wayen i d-nnant tira iqedsen : Ad snegreɣ tamusni n imusnawen, ad rreɣ d ula+ c lefhama n wid ifehmen+ .

²⁰Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the lawyer of this world? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

²⁰Anda-t uɛeqli ? Anda-t umusnaw ? Anda-t uḥṛic ara d-isfehmen ayen ideṛṛun di lǧil-agi ? Ur d-isbeggen ara Sidi Ṛebbi belli tamusni n ddunit-agi d lehbala ?

²¹For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

²¹Imi at ddunit s lefhama-nsen ur ɛqilen ara tamusni n Sidi Ṛebbi, nețța yebɣa ad isellek wid yumnen yis s lexbaṛ-agi n lxiṛ i ḥesben wiyaḍ d lehbala.

²²For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

²²At Isṛail ssuturen lbeṛhanat, iyunaniyen țnadin tamusni ;

²³but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks,

²³ma d nukni nețbecciṛ Lmasiḥ, win akken yețțusemmṛen ɣef wumidag, yellan d țbehdila i wat Isṛail, d lehbala ɣer iyunaniyen.

²⁴but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.

²⁴Meɛna wid iwumi i d-yessawel Sidi Ṛebbi, ama d at Isṛail ama d iyunaniyen, umnen belli d nețța i d Lmasiḥ, i ț-țazmert n Ṛebbi akk-d tmusni-ines.

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

²⁵Axaṭer ayen akken ḥesben yemdanen d lehbala n Sidi Ṛebbi, ț-țamusni iṣeḥḥan akteṛ n tmusni n yemdanen, ayen ḥesben daɣen d feccal n Sidi Ṛebbi, yeɣleb lǧehd n yemdanen.

²⁶For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

²⁶Walit ay atmaten, kunwi iwumi d-yessawel Sidi Ṛebbi : ur llin gar-awen aṭas n wid yesɛan tamusni n ddunit, ur llin aṭas n wid yesɛan imukan ɛlayen, ur llin daɣen aṭas inaṣliyen yesɛan lqima tameqqrant ;

²⁷but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world, that he might put to shame the things that are strong;

²⁷meɛna Sidi Ṛebbi yextaṛ ayen yellan d lehbala ɣer wemdan iwakken ad isneḥcam imusnawen, yextaṛ ayen ur nesɛi tazmert di ddunit iwakken ad isneḥcam wid iǧehden.

²⁸and God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that are not, that he might bring to nothing the things that are:

²⁸Sidi Ṛebbi yextaṛ ayen ur nesɛi azal, yețwaḥeqṛen di ddunit akk-d wayen yețwaḥesben d ulac, iwakken ad isseɣli lqima n wayen yesɛan azal ɣer yemdanen.

²⁹that no flesh should boast before God.

²⁹Akka, yiwen ur izmir ad izuxx zdat Sidi Ṛebbi.

³⁰But of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

³⁰Imi d Sidi Ṛebbi i kkun-isdukklen d Ɛisa Lmasiḥ, d nețța i ɣ-yuɣalen d lefhama i d yekkan s ɣuṛ Sidi Ṛebbi. Yis i ɣ yerra Sidi Ṛebbi d iḥeqqiyen, iṣeffa tikli-nneɣ, yefda-yaɣ-d si ddnub.

³¹that, according as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.” Jeremiah 9:24

³¹Am akken yura di tira iqedsen : Win yebɣan ad izuxx, ad izuxx s lecɣal n Ṛebbi.
