1 Royleen ma nag, ni may roye Kirist.
1Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.
2 Maa ngi leen di sant ci li ngeen may fàttaliku ci lépp, ak ci li ngeen di topp dénkaane, yi ma leen dénk.
2Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you.
3 Waaye nag bëgg naa ngeen xam lii: Kirist mooy kilifag bépp góor, góor di kilifag jigéen, te Yàlla di kilifag Kirist.
3But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
4 Kon nag góor guy ñaan Yàlla, walla muy wax ci kàddug Yàlla, fekk mu teg dara ci boppam, day suufeel Kirist, kilifaam.
4Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head.
5 Waaye bu jigéen musóoruwul, buy ñaan walla buy wax ci kàddug Yàlla, kooku day suufeel jëkkëram jiy kilifaam, ndaxte day mel ni jigéen ju ñu wat.
5But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved.
6 Jigéen ju dul musóoru, bu yaboo, mu watu. Waaye su fekkee ne jigéen dafay am kersa, su wàññee kawaram walla mu watu, fàww kon mu musóoru.
6For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.
7 Góor nag moom warul a teg dara ci boppam, ndaxte mooy melokaanu Yàlla te dafay wone ndamu Yàlla. Jigéen moom dafay wone ndamu góor.
7For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.
8 Ndaxte jëlewuñu góor ci jigéen, waaye jigéen lañu jële ci góor.
8For man is not from woman, but woman from man;
9 Te sàkkuñu góor ngir jigéen, waaye jigéen lañu sàkk ngir góor.
9for neither was man created for the woman, but woman for the man.
10 Looloo tax jigéen war a teg ci kaw boppam luy màndargaal kilifteef ga, ndax malaaka yi.
10For this cause the woman ought to have authority on her head, because of the angels.
11 Teewul nag ci sunu booloo ak Boroom bi, jigéen a ngi wéeru ci góor, te góor a ngi wéeru ci jigéen.
11Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord.
12 Ni ñu sàkke jigéen ci góor, noonu la góor juddoo ci jigéen, te lépp a ngi jóge ca Yàlla.
12For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God.
13 Seetleen mbir mii: ndax jekk na jigéen bañ a musóoru, buy ñaan Yàlla?
13Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
14 Xanaa du àddina ci boppam dafa leen di won ne, gàcce la ci góor, ngir muy yar kawar gu bare?
14Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him?
15 Waaye loolu nag ab taar la ci jigéen. Dañoo jagleel jigéen kawar gu gudd, muy muuraay ci moom.
15But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.
16 Waaye su kenn bëggee werante ci mbir moomu, na xam lii: amunu beneen aada ci njàng mi, du nun walla mboolooy Yàlla.
16But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.
17 Bi may tollu ci ndigal yi, mënuma leen a sant, ndaxte seeni ndaje loraange lañuy jur, waaye du njariñ.
17But in giving you this command, I don’t praise you, that you come together not for the better but for the worse.
18 Ci bu jëkk dégg naa lii: bu ngeen di daje, am na ci yéen ñuy féewaloo, te xaw naa koo gëm.
18For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.
19 Fàww mu am ay féewaloo ci seen biir, ngir ñu man a xàmmi ñi neex Yàlla ci yéen.
19For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you.
20 Bu ngeen dajee, mënuleen a wax ne reeru Boroom bi ngeen di lekk.
20When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat.
21 Ndaxte bu ngeen dee lekk, ku nekk dafay gaawantu di lekk reeram, ba tax ñenn ñaa ngi xiif, fekk ñeneen di màndi.
21For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken.
22 Xanaa amuleen kër yu ngeen di lekke ak di naane? Walla ndax dangeen a xeeb mbooloom Yàlla? Walla ngeen bëgg a rusloo ñi amul dara? Lu ma leen ci war a wax nag? Ma gërëm leen ci loolu? Mukk! Gërëmuma leen.
22What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly, and put them to shame who don’t have? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.
23 Li ma jële ci Boroom bi, moom laa leen jottali: Boroom bi Yeesu, ci guddi gi ñu ko woree, dafa jël mburu,
23For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread.
24 sant Yàlla, damm ko ne: «Lii sama yaram la, wi ma joxe ngir yéen. Defleen lii, ngir fàttaliku ma.»
24When he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me.”
25 Noonu itam bi ñu lekkee ba noppi, mu jël kaas bi ne leen: «Kaas bii mooy misaal kóllëre gu bees, gi Yàlla fas jaarale ko ci sama deret. Defleen lii ngir fàttaliku ma.»
25In the same way he also took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me.”
26 Ndaxte saa su ngeen di lekk mburu mii, walla ngeen di naan ci kaas bii, yéena ngi yégle deewu Boroom bi, ba kera muy ñëw.
26For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
27 Kon nag képp ku jekkadi ni mu lekke ci mburu mi te naane ni ci kaasu Boroom bi, tooñ nga yaramu Boroom bi ak deretam.
27Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.
28 Na ku nekk seetlu boppam nag, sog a lekk ci mburu mi te naan ci kaas bi.
28But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.
29 Ku lekk mburu mi, naan ci kaas bi, fekk faalewuloo solos yaramu Kirist wi, sa lekk ak sa naan dina xëcc àtteb Yàlla ci sa kaw.
29For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body.
30 Looloo tax ñu bare ci yéen wopp te ñàkk doole, ba ñenn ñi faatu.
30For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.
31 Su nu doon seetlu sunu bopp ni mu ware, kon àtte du nu dal.
31For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn’t be judged.
32 Waaye bu nu Boroom bi dee àtte, da nuy yar ngir bañ noo boole ci mbugalu àddina.
32But when we are judged, we are punished by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.
33 Noonu nag bokk yi, bu ngeen dajee, di lekk reeru Boroom bi, nangeen xaarante.
33Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.
34 Ku xiif, na lekke këram, ngir bañ a indi ci yéen àtteb Yàlla ndax seen ndaje yi. Yeneen fànn yi ci des nag, bu ma ñëwee ci yéen, dinaa ko seet.
34But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.
