1 Coríntios 16

He Kohikohi mō te Hunga Whakapono, Rawakore

1 Nā, mō te kohikohi mō te hunga tapu, pērātia me tāku i whakarite ai ki ngā hāhi o Karatia. 2 Hei te rā tuatahi o te wiki ka whakatakoto ia tangata, ia tangata o koutou ki te taha tohu ai, kei te āhua o te manaakitanga i a ia, kei waiho ngā kohikohi mō te wā e tae atu ai ahau. 3 Ā, ka tae atu ahau, māku e tono te hunga e whakapaingia ana e ā koutou pukapuka hei mau i tā koutou aroha noa ki Hiruhārama. 4 Ā, ki te tika kia haere atu anō hoki ahau, ko mātou tahi e haere.

Ngā Whakaaro o Pāora

5 Nā, ka haere atu ahau ki a koutou, ina tika ahau rā Makeronia: e tika ana hoki ahau rā Makeronia. 6 Ā, tērā pea ahau e noho roa ki a koutou, taka noa pea te hōtoke, kia ai koutou, hei ārahi i ahau ki te wāhi e haere atu ai ahau. 7 E kore hoki ahau e pai kia titiro haere noa ahau i a koutou āianei; e tūmanako ana hoki ahau kia whakatau iho ahau ki a koutou, ki te tukua e te Ariki. 8 Engari, ka noho ahau ki Epeha taea noatia te Petekoha. 9 Kua tuwhera mai nei he kūwaha rahi ki ahau, he mahi nui, ā, tērā anō te tokomaha o te hunga tautohe.

10 Nā, ki te tae atu a Tīmoti, meinga kia kaua ia e noho wehi i roto i a koutou. E mahi ana hoki ia i te mahi a te Ariki, e pēnei ana me ahau nei. 11 Nā reira, kei whakahāwea tētahi ki a ia; engari, āta ārahina ia i runga i te rangimārie, kia haere mai ai ki ahau; e tatari ana hoki ahau ki a ia, rātou ko ngā tēina.

12 Nā, ko tō tātou teina, ko Aporo, nui atu tāku tohe ki a ia kia haere atu rātou ko ngā tēina ki a koutou; otirā, kīhai rawa ia i pai kia haere atu i tēnei wā. Otirā, māna e haere atu ā te wā e wātea ai.

He Kupu Whakamutunga

13 Kia mataara, e tū i runga i te whakapono, whakatāne, kia kaha. 14 Kia meatia ā koutou mea katoa i runga i te aroha.

15 He tohe tēnei nāku ki a koutou, e ōku tēina; e mōhio ana koutou ki ngā tāngata o te whare o Tepana ko te mātāmua tērā o Akāia, kua tuku anō i a rātou hei kaimahi mō te hunga tapu; 16 kia ngohengohe hoki koutou ki ngā tāngata pērā, ki te hunga katoa anō e mahi tahi ana, e uaua ana.

17 Hari tonu hoki ahau ki te haerenga mai o Tepana rātou ko Porotunatu, ko Akāiku. Nā rātou hoki i rite ai ngā mea i kore i a koutou. 18 I ora hoki i a rātou tōku wairua, o koutou hoki. Nā, kia mōhio koutou ki te hunga pērā.

19 Tēnei ngā hāhi o Āhia te oha atu nei ki a koutou. He maha hoki ngā mihi atu a Akuira rāua ko Pirihira i roto i te Ariki, a te hāhi hoki i tō rāua whare. 20 Tēnei ngā tēina katoa te oha atu nei ki a koutou. Oha atu ki a koutou anō, kei te kihi tapu.

21 Ko te oha tēnei āku, a Pāora, he mea nā tōku ringa ake.

22 Ki te kore tētahi e aroha ki te Ariki, kia waiho ia hei anatema. Maranāta.

23 Kia tau te aroha noa o te Ariki, o Īhu Karaiti, ki a koutou.

24 Hei a koutou katoa tōku aroha i roto i a Karaiti Īhu. Āmine.

1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I gave order to the churches of Galatia, so also do ye. 2 Upon the first day of the week let each one of you lay by him in store, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come. 3 And when I arrive, whomsoever ye shall approve, them will I send with letters to carry your bounty unto Jerusalem: 4 and if it be meet for me to go also, they shall go with me. 5 But I will come unto you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia; for I pass through Macedonia; 6 but with you it may be that I shall abide, or even winter, that ye may set me forward on my journey whithersoever I go. 7 For I do not wish to see you now by the way; for I hope to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit. 8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost; 9 for a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.

10 Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear; for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do: 11 let no man therefore despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come unto me: for I expect him with the brethren. 12 But as touching Apollos the brother, I besought him much to come unto you with the brethren: and it was not at all his will to come now; but he will come when he shall have opportunity.

13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong. 14 Let all that ye do be done in love.

15 Now I beseech you, brethren (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have set themselves to minister unto the saints), 16 that ye also be in subjection unto such, and to every one that helpeth in the work and laboreth. 17 And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they supplied. 18 For they refreshed my spirit and yours: acknowledge ye therefore them that are such.

19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Prisca salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their house. 20 All the brethren salute you. Salute one another with a holy kiss.

21 The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand. 22 If any man loveth not the Lord, let him be anathema. Maranatha. 23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you. 24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
