1 PBW Namatuya napanamu wiki jaka kabu atinya waingu kala ki atimu jaka na kanyuru dangu nama wali dehang, pareihi- reihing kamu peanya agananya nama jaji. BSB BSB: Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.
2 PBW Kadang, a gearaya nama panewi, da jiamangu oali tou rara na papanewi dengana, jidika lahi Allah, kadang da eimang tou nama peanya jiaya napa tikkina dapa peada agananya winna. BSB BSB: For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.
3 PBW Jidika, na tou nama langa itaya agananya nama jaji na tikkiya ta oali touna kana rahhikungu, na peakanya, jaka napa yaga nounya. BSB BSB: But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement, and comfort.
4 PBW Ngala na tou nama panewi ta hilu napa tikkina napa maddu wikinya na ihina, jidinguka na tou nama langa peanya nama jaji napa maddunya na huhu anana hi Allah. BSB BSB: The one who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.
5 PBW Nyouwa ku manni bollugimi kami panewi ta hilu dapa peami, tennang pereihi- reihing kami peanya agananya nama jaji anang nama amming. Natou nama manyura reihi bakulluya waling yana tou nama panewi ta hilu dapa peangu, helinya a duna jella nama pagapi tagunya napa tikkina jiayaha tou nama keriya hida o'anya BSB BSB: I wish that all of you could speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be edified.
6 PBW Aku oali beigimi, ammi kagaka lahi nyimi manga hiku waingu panewi dapa peangu, gannanya napa uttu waimunya, penya nam nyouwa ku panewi denga gu waingu agannanya nama jaji, napa langa peada, napa parahing, anag na li'i hapeakang? BSB BSB: Now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I benefit you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?
7 PBW Toukana, ngala dama eingu hangahina, toungu suling anang kecapi nama eingu li'ina, a dada heaka kaka da poini da, giki nouna ana peanya tou agannanya nama poini, suling anang kecapi? BSB BSB: Even in the case of lifeless instruments, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone recognize the tune they are playing unless the notes are distinct?
8 PBW Anang, a jiaya na trompet nama poini dama jinyak, geara kaka nama weaku papatau? BSB BSB: Again, if the trumpet sounds a muffled call, who will prepare for battle?
9 PBW Tou jellana jimi, toungu ammi waingu lamma mi ammi tikkiya na hilu dapa peangu, giki nouna ana peagiminya oalimi agannanya napa tikkimu? Magga mearana ammu panewi dengang ngillu. BSB BSB: So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.
10 PBW Ngala ana dangu na hilu tapinu tana jaka da malli eimang hangina dapa waingu. BSB BSB: Assuredly, there are many different languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
11 PBW Jidinguka touna nyouwa ada ku peakanyaka na hilu nou, nyouwa mearana tou jallur atouna duna nama panewi denga ga, jaka na tou nama panewi mearana tou jallur wiggunya. BSB BSB: If, then, I do not know the meaning of someone’s language, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to me.
12 PBW Tou jellang jimi, kadang jimi wali ati tekkami ami manyeranya himi kollinya na kanyuruka naga nama wali dehang hodu kollinya nama jibbu jabu binnu bongu tutu taguna ami hamaddunya na huhu anana. BSB BSB: It is the same with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, strive to excel in gifts that build up the church.
13 PBW Ya atouna, nama panewi waingu hilu dapa pea bollung kana habayang kana piku penya papangada tagunya BSB BSB: Therefore, the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.
14 PBW Kadang, anang aku habayang waingu panewi lammagu, naha mangu gu nahabayang, jidika napangadangu gu dana maddu mangu. BSB BSB: For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.
15 PBW Yayi, ganna ikanya napa wolugu? Ku habaya waingu hamangu gu jaka habaya waingu pangadangu gu ku manyanyi waingu hamangu gu jaka ku manyanyi wai jellang pangadangu gu. BSB BSB: What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind.
16 PBW Atouna ajikiya amu pamalangu wanya hamangumu, gikiyaka naka ya na tou, nama eingu tadalu dama kolling kanyuru na, ana tikki, "Amin," toungu amu tikkiya na kanyurumu kadang dana peamanya agannanya napa tikkimu? BSB BSB: Otherwise, if you speak a blessing in spirit, how can someone who is uninstructed say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?
17 PBW Langka jia jellaya amu pamalangu pakallunya, jidika na tou heaka dana mannimanya. BSB BSB: You may be giving thanks well enough, but the other one is not edified.
18 PBW Nyouwa waiwu wigunya hi Allah kadang nyouwa aku panewi ta hilu lamma dapa peangu ku reihi mi nyimi ngala dukami. BSB BSB: I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.
19 PBW Jidinguka, ta huhu anana nyouwa reihi kallunguya aku panewi lima kawodu waingu pangadang lappaku ka ku patoma jellanya ta tou hawanguk, habulu kawodu patikki ta hilu lamma dapa peangu. BSB BSB: But in the church, I would rather speak five coherent words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20 PBW Ngala apa oali beingu, abi jajika lakeada tadalu pangadangumu. Kamu jaji ana rara ammu jurrak, jidika tadalu pangadangumu kamu pa ati! BSB BSB: Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.
21 PBW Toungu napa tulih ta Hurat Taurat, "Ya ngala na tou nama waingu panewi dapa pa peangu jaka na rowida ngala da tou dapa peangu, nyouwa kutikki danya na tana yayi, jidinguka dada rang ngu mawa, winni nanya hi Moiri." BSB BSB: It is written in the Law: “By strange tongues and foreign lips I will speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to Me, says the Lord.”
22 PBW Yayi, da hilu lamma dapa peangu jiaya na tada, da jiamaya na tutu taguna na tou nama langa keriya, jidinguka tutu tagudanya da tou dadi ma keriya, jaka hayi nama penya nama jaji jiaya na tada, da tutu tagumadanya da tou dadi mawainya, jidinguka tutu tagunanya na tou nama langa wainya anang nama keriya. BSB BSB: Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
23 PBW Jaka, ngala da huhu anana ada makeha kaka hangi padoungu, jaka ngala dukada da panewi waingu hilu lamma dapa peangu, manga eingu tou dama penya anang na tou dama wainya ana tama kaka, enga widda gimi ada panewi jimi makatoa mi anang kalanguminya? BSB BSB: So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who are uninstructed or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your minds?
24 PBW Jidika, ngala dukami ami pea bollukanya nama jaji, manga aming tou dama keriya anang tou dama pea wainya ana tama, jiaya hina namu ya ngala nama jaji jaka hina pangada wainya. BSB BSB: But if an unbeliever or uninstructed person comes in while everyone is prophesying, he will be convicted and called to account by all,
25 PBW Dapapa louhuna ta atina jiaya hina ittaya, jiaya hina boppa ana karadanya hi Allah, hina wainya a ei tekkanya hi Allah tapa duamijiami anang ta joangami. BSB BSB: and the secrets of his heart will be made known. So he will fall facedown and worship God, proclaiming, “God is truly among you!”
26 PBW Jayi, na tu'u pangalana gikinouna, ngala pa oali beingu a eikanya ami makeha, hatou- hatou ka eingu hurat manyanyi, nama paeakang, patikki, panewi hilu dapa peangu, anang tada paka tutu waingu. Wai bolluja kana haddul waingu. BSB BSB: What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a psalm or a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. All of these must be done to build up the church.
27 PBW A eikang nama waingu panewi dapa peangu, matta kaja toma dua anang toma tillu kada waingu papa heapang, manga ka eingu tou hawanguk nama peanya napa tikkida BSB BSB: If anyone speaks in a tongue, two, or at most three, should speak in turn, and someone must interpret.
28 PBW Jidinguka jaka ada eikang tou nama peanya duna kana kawannar jaka na tou nama eingu jaka matta kanya kana panewi meaha jaka lahi Allah. BSB BSB: But if there is no interpreter, he should remain silent in the church and speak only to himself and God.
29 PBW Mattakanya dama toma dua anang toma tillu da Nabi dama panewi jaka hawanguk kada tibakaya ada pangadanya. BSB BSB: Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.
30 PBW Jidika, ya napa tikki tutu tagunanya na tou heaka nama ngodu tapa doungu nou, na tou nama moulukana kawannar. BSB BSB: And if a revelation comes to someone who is seated, the first speaker should stop.
31 PBW Kadang, jimi ngala dukami mi peanya agannanya nama jaji hatou- hatou, toma ngala dukami kami pakeri jaka ngala dukami kami kullihu waingu. BSB BSB: For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged.
32 PBW Ngala na hamanguda da Nabi naka raddanya duda da Nabi. BSB BSB: The spirits of prophets are subject to prophets.
33 PBW Kadang, hi Allah da jiamamaya hi Allah nama manyoggar, anga jiaya napa namu wikki toungu nama jaji ta joanga huhu anana ngala na tou napa langa pahigil. BSB BSB: For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace—as in all the churches of the saints.
35 PBW Jidinguka, a eikang tapa ngadanguna dapa peada jaka napa tuturuda, reihi kalunguya ada patuturu ta la' da ta umma kadang pama ki'i dengangnguya duda mawinni ada panewi ta aru tou nama paka buangu. BSB BSB: If they wish to inquire about something, they are to ask their own husbands at home; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church.
36 PBW Penya namu na winina hi Allah walina lahi jimi? Anang, penya namu lahi jimi paya na winina ana patomanya? BSB BSB: Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only ones it has reached?
37 PBW A eikang nama pangadang ya jiawaha hatou Nabi anang tou nama murrah, mattakanya kana penya ngala dukana dapa tulihugu tutumi jimi ya jiata na li'i pareahana hi Moiri. BSB BSB: If anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, let him acknowledge that what I am writing you is the Lord’s command.
38 PBW A eikang tou dama penya yayi duna da pea jellamanya. BSB BSB: But if anyone ignores this, he himself will be ignored.
39 PBW Ya jiaya aku oali beigimi, kami manyera tekkanya waingu kullihumi na tutu ka buangumi, jaka abi heirumanya na tou ana panewi waingu hilu lamma dapa peangu. BSB BSB: So, my brothers, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
40 PBW Jidika, ngala dukana kami pahalakuya waingu tutu- tiddi. BSB BSB: But everything must be done in a proper and orderly manner.
