1 A m I am not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?

Miyaanan xor ahayn? Miyaanan rasuul ahayn? Miyaanan arkin Rabbigeenna Ciise? Miyeydnaan ahayn shuqulkayga xagga Rabbiga?

2 I f I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.

Xataa haddaanan kuwa kale rasuul u ahayn, idinka waa idiin ahay, waayo, waxaad tihiin shaabadda rasuulnimadayda xagga Rabbiga.

3 M ine answer to them that do examine me is this,

Daafacaaddayda aan kuwa i imtixaama iskaga daafaco waa tan.

4 H ave we not power to eat and to drink?

Miyaannan annagu jid u lahayn inaannu wax cunno oo wax cabno?

5 H ave we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

Miyaannan jid u lahayn inaannu haweenay walaal ah kaxaysanno sida rasuullada kale iyo walaalaha Rabbiga iyo Keeyfas ay sameeyaan?

6 O r I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?

Mise aniga iyo Barnabas oo keliyaan jid u lahayn inaannan shaqayn?

7 W ho goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

Askarigee baa qarashkiisa weligiis iska bixiya? Yaa beer canab ah beera oo aan midhaheeda cunin? Ama yaa adhi daajiya oo aan caanaha adhiga dhamin?

8 S ay I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?

Waxyaalahaas ma sida dad baan u leeyahay? Oo sharcigu miyuusan waxyaalahaas oo kale lahayn?

9 F or it is written in the law of Moses, thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?

Waayo, waxaa ku qoran sharciga Muuse, Waa inaadan dibiga af xidhin markuu sarreenka burburinayo. Ma Ilaah baa dibiyada oo keliya dhawra,

10 O r saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.

mise innagoo dhan buu inoola jeeda? Hubaal, aawadeen baa loo qoray, waayo, kan beerta qodaa waa inuu rajo ku qodo, kan tumaana waa inuu tumo isagoo rajaynaya inuu wax qayb u helo.

11 I f we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

Haddaannu idinku beernay waxyaalaha ruuxa, ma wax weyn baa haddaannu waxyaalaha jidhka idinka urursaano?

12 I f others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

Qaar kale hadday waxaas jid idiinku leeyihiin, miyaannan annagu si ka badan idiinku lahayn? Hase ahaatee, waxan noo jidka ah kuma aannu isticmaalin, laakiin wax walba waannu u dulqaadannaa inaannan sina u joojin injiilka Masiix.

13 D o ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?

Miyeydnaan ogayn kuwa waxyaalaha quduuska ah ka shaqeeyaa inay macbudka wax ka cunaan, kuwa meesha allabariga ka adeegaana inay meesha allabariga qayb ku leeyihiin?

14 E ven so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

Sidaas oo kale Rabbigu wuxuu amray in kuwa dadka injiilka ku wacdiyaa ay injiilka ku noolaadaan.

15 B ut I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.

Laakiin waxyaalahaas midkoodna kuma aan isticmaalin. Haddana waxyaalahan u qori maayo in sidaas la ii yeelo, waayo, waxaa ii roon inaan dhinto intii nin uun faankayga ka dhigi lahaa wax aan wax ka jirin.

16 F or though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

Waayo, haddaan dadka injiilka ku wacdiyo, wax aan ku faano ma aha, waayo, wax baa i qasbaya, maxaa yeelay, waa ii hoog haddaanan dadka injiilka ku wacdiyin.

17 F or if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.

Waayo, haddaan waxaas ku sameeyo doonistayda aawadeed, abaalgud baan helayaa, laakiin haddaanan doonistayda ku samayn, weli wakiilnimo baa laygu aaminay.

18 W hat is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

Haddaba abaalgudkaygu waa maxay? Waa in markaan injiilka dadka ku wacdiyo aan injiilka ka dhigo iibla'aan, si aanan ugu wada isticmaalin waxa ii jidka ah xagga injiilka. Aad Buu Ugu Dadaalay Inuu Dad U Jiido Masiix

19 F or though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

Waayo, in kastoo aan xor ka ahaa dad oo dhan, dhammaan ayaan addoon isaga dhigay, si aan qaar kaloo badan u soo kordhiyo.

20 A nd unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;

Yuhuudda waxaan u noqday sida Yuhuudi oo kale, si aan Yuhuud kale u soo kordhiyo. Kuwa sharciga ka hooseeyana, sida mid sharciga ka hooseeya ayaan u noqday, aniga oo aan sharciga ka hoosayn, si aan kuwa sharciga ka hooseeya u soo kordhiyo.

21 T o them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.

Xagga kuwa aan sharciga lahayn, sida mid aan sharci lahayn ayaan u noqday anigoo aan ahayn mid sharci la' xagga Ilaah, laakiin sharci leh xagga Masiix, si aan u soo kordhiyo kuwa aan sharciga lahayn.

22 T o the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

Xagga kuwa itaalka daran waxaan u noqday mid itaaldaran, si aan kuwa itaalka daran u soo kordhiyo. Dadka oo dhan ayaan wax kasta u noqday inaan si kastaba qaar ku badbaadiyo.

23 A nd this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

Wax kasta waxaan u sameeyaa injiilka aawadiis, si aan u noqdo mid injiilka la qaybsada iyaga. Dadaalka Loo Baahan Yahay Si Loo Lib Helo

24 K now ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

Miyaanad ogayn in kuwa tartan ku ordaa ay wada ordaan, laakiin mid uun baa dheefta hela? Sidaas u orda inaad heshaan.

25 A nd every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

Kii cayaarta aad ugu dadaalaa, wax walba ayuu iska dhawraa. Kuwaasu haddaba waxay sidaas u yeelaan inay taaj dhammaanaya helaan, innaguse waxaynu helaynaa mid aan dhammaanaynin.

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:

Haddaba anigu uma ordo qasdila'aan, uma feedhtamo sida mid dabaysha ku dhufanaya.

27 B ut I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

Laakiin jidhkaygaan dhibaa oo addoon ka dhigaa si markaan qaar kale injiilka ku wacdiyo aan qudhayda lay diidin.
