¹Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

¹Mangav te ramov pa xamos kai sas dino sar e podarka ka ek xoxamno dela/ikoni. Ame zhanas ke savorhen si le zhanglimos, ai o zhanglimos keren barimata, numa e dragostia vazdel le manushes.

²But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know.

²Te si vari kon kai gindil ke zhanel vari so, chi zhanel inker sar trobul.

³But if anyone loves God, the same is known by him.

³Numa te si vari kon kai si leske drago O Del, kodo zhanel le O Del.

⁴Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one.

⁴Anda xamos kai trobul te xan le masa shinade le devlenge, zhanas ke iek xoxamno del ande lumia, nai kanch, Iek korkorho Del si!

⁵For though there are things that are called “gods,” whether in the heavens or on earth; as there are many “gods” and many “lords”;

⁵Ke te si manush kai phenen peske xoxamle dela, vai pe phuv, vai ande cheri, vai kai si chaches kodolendar diela.

⁶yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him.

⁶Numa amenge zhanas ke ferdi iek Del si, O Dat, anda kaste aven sa le dieli, ai ande soste ame sam; ai ferdi iek Del O Jesus Kristo, anda kaste si sa le dieluria, ai anda kaste ame sam.

⁷However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of the idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

⁷Numa kado zhanglimos nai savorhende, uni palai furma kai gindin le devlen xan kodolendar masa kai si shinde le devlenge, ai lenge goji slabo la ai rimonme la.

⁸But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.

⁸Ke nai xamos ke pasharel ka Del: te xasa, nai ame kanchi mai but; ai te na xasa, nai ame kanchi mai xantsi.

⁹But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak.

⁹Arakhen tume te na avel tumaro iviamos kai si tume te na kerdiol vari so kai rimol le slabon.

¹⁰For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

¹⁰Ke te si vari kon kai dikhel tu kai zhanes ai beshes palai skafidi ande khangeri kai si ikoni, leski goji kai si slabo chi ningerela les te xal kodolendar masa kai shinade le devlenge, ai kadia o slabo xaiil,

¹¹And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died.

¹¹ke tu zhanes but o phral xasavo la, pala leske mulo O Kristo.

¹²Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.

¹²Ai kana kerel bezex kadia kal kaver manush rimosarel lenge goji. Sostar keren bezex karing O Kristo?

¹³Therefore if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forevermore, that I don’t cause my brother to stumble.

¹³Anda kodia te si xamos kai rimol murho phrales, mai bini chi xal kodolestar mas, kaste te na kerav baio murhe phraleske.
