1 KORINT 4

Surung ni jabatan apostel

1 Ihira jolma in ma hanami juak-juak ni Kristus anjaha sijolom anak-kunsi ni rusia ni Naibata. (Tit. 1:7.)

2 Na parlobei ipindo humbani sijolom anak kunsi, ai ma ase haposan sidea jumpah. (Luk. 12:42.)

3 Anggo bakku, parkara na hampung do ai, ia iuhumi nasiam pe ahu, atap pangadilan ni jolma pe; tapi ahu pe, seng huuhumi diringku.

4 Ai seng dong salahku, anggo na hubotoh, tapi seng pintor ahu halani ai, Tuhan in do na manguhumi ahu. (Ps. 143:2.)

5 Halani ai ulang ma nasiam manguhumi ilobei ni panorangni, ilobei ni parroh ni Tuhan in, na manondangi sagala na ponop ibagas na golap, anjaha na patalarhon sagala sura-sura ni uhur. Jadi ganup ma bani panorang ai dapotan puji-pujian humbani Naibata. (bd. 3:8.)

Toruh ni uhur ampa sitaronon ni apostel ai

6 Tapi hubakku ampa hubani si Apollos do, nasiam sanina, hutarik hata ai, halani nasiam, ase marhitei hanami iguruhon nasiam, ulang ma nalobihi na tarsurat in: Ulang ma adong humbani nasiam na pabanggal dirini manghasomani na sada, laho mangimbang na sada nari. (Rom 12:3.)

7 Ai ise mambahen marhasurungan ham? Ai aha na adong bamu, na so jinalomu? Anggo na manjalo do, mase ma mangenjeng ham songon na so manjalo? (Rom 12:6.)

8 Domma bosur nasiam, domma bayak. Domma gabe raja nasiam, hanami lape. Ambit ma namin gabe raja nasiam, ase dihut hanami raja rap pakon nasiam! (Pangk. 3:17, 21.)

9 Ai nini uhurhu, na dob ibahen Naibata do hanami apostel, gabe sitoruhan, songon na dob ipadas hu hamateian; gabe sitontonan do hanami bani dunia on, bani malekat ampa jolma. (Rom 8:36; Heb. 10:33.)

10 Na oto do hanami halani Kristus, tapi nasiam, na pentar do ibagas Kristus. Hanami na galek, tapi nasiam na gogoh. Hanami na dorun, tapi nasiam na sangap. (bd. 3:18.)

11 Ronsi panorang on loheian anjaha horahan do hanami, hurang bani parhiouan, hona bogbogan anjaha seng marianan na totap, (2 Kor. 11:23-27.)

12 loja marhorja marhitei tangannami sandiri. Anggo hona parpahiri mamasu-masu do hanami, anggo hona parburu, sabar do hanami, (Rom 12:14; 1 Tes. 2:9.)

13 anggo ipahata-hata, basar do hanami. Gabe songon tompoh-tompoh ni dunia on do hanami, songon apus-apus ni nahei ni haganup halak ronsi sonari.

Sihol roh apostel ai marayak sidea

14 Sedo na laho pailahon nasiam ase husurat on, laho paingat nasiam do songon anak na hinaholongan.

15 Ai age pe adong salaksa pangajari bani nasiam marhitei Kristus, seng piga anggo bapa, ai ahu do manubuhkon nasiam ibagas Kristus Jesus, marhitei Ambilan Namadear. (Gal. 4:19.)

16 Halani ai huojur ma nasiam, gabe sitiru ahu ma nasiam! (bd. 11:1.)

17 Halani ai do ase husuruh bani nasiam si Timoteus, ai ma anak bakku, na hinaholongan anjaha hatengeran ni uhur ibagas Tuhan, ase ia ma paingatkon nasiam pasal dalanku ibagas Kristus Jesus, songon na huajarhon ija-ija pe bani haganup kuria in. (Lah. 19:22.)

18 Adong do deba na pabanggal-banggal dirini, songon na so roh be ahu bani nasiam.

19 Tapi podas do ahu roh marayak nasiam, anggo marosuh Tuhan, anjaha botohonku ma ijin gogoh ni na pabanggal-banggal dirini, sedo hata ni sidea. (Luk. 17:20; Lah. 18:21.)

20  Ai sedo ibagas hata harajaon ni Naibata, tapi ibagas hagogohon do. (bd. 2:4; Luk. 17:20.)
21 Aha do ipangindo uhur nasiam? Marlonsing-lonsing do ahu roh bani nasiam, barang ibagas holong atap lamlam ni uhur do?

1 Corinthians 4

The Apostles’ Ministry

1 Onet should think about us this way – as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.2 Now what is sought in stewards is that one be found faithful.3 So for me, it is a minor matter that I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.4 For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not acquitted because of this. The one who judges me is the Lord.

5 So then, do not judge anything before the time. Wait until the Lord comes. He willt bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the motives of hearts. Then each will receive recognitiont from God.
6 I have applied these things to myself and Apollos because of you, brothers and sisters,t so that through us you may learn “not to go beyond what is written,” so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of the one against the other.7 For who concedes you any superiority? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you received it, why do you boast as though you did not?8 Already you are satisfied! Already you are rich! You have become kings without us! I wish you had become kings so that we could reign with you!9 For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to die, because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to people.10 We are fools for Christ, but you are wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are distinguished, we are dishonored!11 To the present hour we are hungry and thirsty, poorly clothed, brutally treated, and without a roof over our heads.12 We do hard work, toiling with our own hands. When we are verbally abused, we respond with a blessing, when persecuted, we endure,

13 when people lie about us, we answer in a friendly manner. We are the world’s dirt and scum, even now.

A Father’s Warning

14 I am not writing these things to shame you, but to correct you as my dear children.15 For though you may have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, because I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.16 I encourage you, then, be imitators of me.17 For this reason, I have sent Timothy to you, who is my dear and faithful son in the Lord. He will remind you of my ways in Christ,s as I teach them everywhere in every church.18 Some have become arrogant,t as if I were not coming to you.19 But I will come to you soon, if the Lord is willing, and I will find out not only the talk of these arrogant people, but also their power.20 For the kingdom of God is demonstrated not in idle talk but with power.

21 What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod of disciplinets or with love and a spirit of gentleness?
