1 KORINTI 14

Tole kerna pemere Kesah Si Badia

1 Bahan maka kekelengen nge si jadi perayakenndu, tapi pe ersura-suralah kam ndatken pemere-pemere Kesah, terlebih-lebih gelah banci kam ernubuat. 2 Kalak si ngerana i bas cakap Kesah labo man manusia ia ngerana tapi man Dibata, sabap manusia la ngangka cakap e, erkiteken secara pertendin ibelaskenna perkara-perkara si rahasia. 3 Tapi kalak si ernubuat man manusia nge ia ngerana; pengeranana e gunana majekken, ngajarken dingen ngapuli kalak si deban.

4 Kalak si ngerana i bas cakap Kesah, dirina kap si ipekenana. Tapi kalak si ernubuat ia majekken perpulungen.
5 Ateku min kerina kam ngerana i bas cakap Kesah; tapi ulin nge kuakap adi kam ernubuat. Sabap beliden gunana kalak si ernubuat asangken kalak si ngerana i bas cakap Kesah -- pala lit kalak si nuriken antusenna, gelah perpulungen e banci ibangun.

6 O senina-senina, bicara reh aku ndahi kam, janah ngerana aku i bas cakap Kesah, kai nge untungna man bandu? Tentu sitik pe la lit gunana, pala ngerana aku erpalasken kai si ipetangkas Dibata, ntah erpalasken pemeteh, ntah nubuat, ntah pengajaren.
7 Bali ras alat-alat musik, e me barang-barang si la erkesah tapi ersora, umpamana sarune ntah kulcapi, kuga ningen ngangkasa laguna adi la tangkas nadana? 8 Ntah pe adi si ngembus terompet perang la erturi-turin ibahanna sorana, ise nge ersikap guna erperang? 9 Bage me pe kerna kam; ise nge ngerti kerna berita si isehkenndu alu cakap Kesah adi pengeranandu e la iangka? Sia-sia luam kap kam e! 10 Erbage-bage cakap i doni enda, tapi labo lit sada pe si la lit ertina. 11 Tapi adi la kuangka cakap si ipake kalak, bali ras kalak asing me ia nandangi aku, janah aku pe bali ras kalak asing man bana.

12 Kueteh maka mbelin kal sura-surandu ngaloken pemere-pemere Kesah, tapi usahakenlah maka i bas kam lit pemere si majekken perpulungen ngelebihi pemere-pemere si deban.
13 E maka kalak si ngerana i bas cakap Kesah, ertotolah ia man Dibata mindo kengasupen guna nuriken antusen kai si ikatakenna e. 14 Sabap adi ertoto aku i bas cakap Kesah, tendingku nge si tuhuna ertoto, tapi ukurku labo ikut. 15 Kuga dage arusna? Arus aku ertoto alu tendingku, tapi arus ka pe aku ertoto alu ukurku. Arus aku rende alu tendingku, tapi arus ka pe aku rende alu ukurku. 16 Adi tendingku saja ngenca ngataken bujur man Dibata, kuga nina kalak si sangana erlajar i bas kiniteken ngataken “Amin” kerna pertoton pengataken bujurndu e? La mungkin iertina kai si ikatakenndu e.

17 Bicara mehuli kal pe pertotonndu i bas ngataken bujur man Dibata, labo e majekken kalak si sangana erlajar e.
18 Bujur kukataken man Dibata sabap rusuren aku ngerana i bas cakap Kesah asangken kam kerina.

19 Tapi i bas perpulungen ulin kuakap aku ngerana lima engkebabah kata si banci iangka, guna ngajari, asangken meribu-ribu cakap Kesah si la iangka.
20 O senina-senina, ola medanak perukurndu. I bas perkara kejahaten bagi anak-anak si mbaru tubuhlah min pemetehndu, tapi i bas rukur, bagi kalak dewasa min kam.

21 I bas Pustaka Si Badia lit tersurat, nina Tuhan,
“Ngerana me Aku man bangsa enda
alu cakap bangsa si deban
Kubelasken katangKu alu babah kalak asing,
tapi amin bage gia, lalap nge la ibegiken bangsa enda Aku.” t

22 E maka pemere ngerana i bas cakap Kesah jadi tanda-tanda man kalak si la nggit tek, labo man kalak si tek, tapi pemere ernubuat, e me guna kalak si tek, labo man kalak si la nggit tek.
23 Arah dampar si deban bicara asum kam pulung, kerina anggota perpulungen ngerana i bas cakap Kesah, jenari reh ku bas kalak si sangana erlajar i bas kiniteken, ntah kalak si langa tek man Jesus, ma ikatakenna maka adon kam kerina? 24 Tapi adi kerina kam ernubuat jenari reh ku bas kalak si sangana erlajar i bas kiniteken, ntah si langa tek man Jesus, tentu igejapna dosana arah kerina si ibegina e, dingen igejapna maka kerina kalak mereksa ia.

25 Alu bage rahasia si terbuni i bas ukurna jadi tangkas, jenari mungkuk ia, isembahna Dibata janahna ngaku, “Tuhu-tuhu kepe Dibata lit i tengah-tengahndu!”

Kiniraturen i bas perpulungen

33 Sabap Dibata labo Dibata kinilaraturen, tapi Dibata kiniraturen.
Bali ras i bas kerina perpulungen-perpulungen si enggo ikhususken jadi sikerajangen Dibata. 34 Si diberu arus sinik i bas perpulungen. La ia ipelepas ngerana. La ia banci jadi peminpin, sue ras si ikataken Undang-undang.

35 Adi perlu iakapna ia meteh sada-sada perkara, i rumah lah ia nungkun man perbulangenna. Man kemelan kap adi diberu nungkun i bas perpulungen.
36 Banci kin i bas kam nari rehna Kata Dibata? Ntah man bandu saja kin Kata Dibata e ipeseh? 37 Adi lit kalak si erpengakap maka ia nabi, ntah erpengakap maka i bas ia lit pemere Kesah, arus ietehna maka si kusuratken man bandu enda e me kap perentah Tuhan.

38 Janah adi lit kalak si la mperdiateken si enda, ia pe ola perdiateken.
39 E maka o senina-senina, ersura-suralah kam guna ernubuat, janah ola olangi kalak si ngerana i bas cakap Kesah. 40 Lakokenlah kerina alu metunggung dingen ratur.

1 Corinthians 14

Prophecy and Tongues

1 Pursue love and be eager for the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.2 For the one speaking in a tongue does not speak to people but to God, for no one understands; he is speaking mysteries by the Spirit.t3 But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening,t encouragement, and consolation.4 The one who speaks in a tongue builds himself up,s but the one who prophesies builds up the church.

5 I wish you all spoke in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be strengthened.
6 Now, brothers and sisters,t if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I help you unless I speak to you with a revelation or with knowledge or prophecy or teaching?7 It is similar for lifeless things that make a sound, like a flute or harp. Unless they make a distinction in the notes, how can what is played on the flute or harp be understood?8 If, for example, the trumpet makes an unclear sound, who will get ready for battle?9 It is the same for you. If you do not speak clearly with your tongue, how will anyone know what is being said? For you will be speaking into the air.10 There are probably many kinds of languages in the world, and none is without meaning.11 If then I do not know the meaning of a language, I will be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me.

12 It is the same with you. Since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit,t seek to abound in order to strengthen the church.
13 So then, one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.14 Ifs I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unproductive.15 What should I do?t I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing praises with my spirit, but I will also sing praises with my mind.16 Otherwise, if you are praising God with your spirit, how can someone without the giftt say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?17 For you are certainly giving thanks well, but the other person is not strengthened.18 I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you,

19 but in the church I want to speak five words with my mind to instruct others, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20 Brothers and sisters,t do not be children in your thinking. Instead, be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature.21 It is written in the law: “By people with strange tongues and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people, yet not even in this way will they listen to me,”s says the Lord.22 So then, tongues are a sign not for believers but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is not for unbelievers but for believers.23 So if the whole church comes together and all speak in tongues, and unbelievers or uninformed people enter, will they not say that you have lost your minds?24 But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or uninformed person enters, he will be convicted by all, he will be called to account by all.

25 The secrets of his heart are disclosed, and in this way he will fall down with his face to the ground and worship God, declaring, “God is really among you.”

Church Order

26 What should you do then, brothers and sisters?t When you come together, each one has a song, has a lesson, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all these things be done for the strengthening of the church.27 If someone speaks in a tongue, it should be two, or at the most three, one after the other, and someone must interpret.28 But if there is no interpreter, he should be silent in the church. Let him speak to himself and to God.29 Two or three prophets should speak and the others should evaluate what is said.30 And if someone sitting down receives a revelation, the person who is speaking should conclude.31 For you can all prophesy one after another, so all can learn and be encouraged.32 Indeed, the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,

33 for God is not characterized by disorder but by peace.
As in all the churches of the saints,s34 the woment should be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak.s Rather, let them be in submission, as in fact the law says.35 If they want to find out about something, they should ask their husbands at home, because it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in church.s

36 Did the word of God begin with you,t or did it come to you alone?
37 If anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, he should acknowledge that what I write to you is the Lord’s command.38 If someone does not recognize this, he is not recognized.39 So then, brothers and sisters,st be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid anyone from speaking in tongues.t

40 And do everything in a decent and orderly manner.
