1 Coríntios 11

1 Be imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ.

2 Now I praise you, brothers, that you remember me in all things, and hold firm the traditions, even as I delivered them to you. 3 But I would have you know that the head*11:3 or, origin of every man is Christ, and the head*11:3 or, origin of the woman is man, and the head*11:3 or, origin of Christ is God. 4 Every man praying or prophesying, having his head covered, dishonors his head. 5 But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered dishonors her head. For it is one and the same thing as if she were shaved. 6 For if a woman is not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it is shameful for a woman to have her hair cut off or be shaved, let her be covered. 7 For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man. 8 For man is not from woman, but woman from man; 9 for man wasn’t created for the woman, but woman for the man. 10 For this cause the woman ought to have authority over her own head, because of the angels.

11 Nevertheless, neither is the woman independent of the man, nor the man independent of the woman, in the Lord. 12 For as woman came from man, so a man also comes through a woman; but all things are from God. 13 Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled? 14 Doesn’t even nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him? 15 But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering. 16 But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.

17 But in giving you this command I don’t praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. 18 For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it. 19 For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you. 20 When therefore you assemble yourselves together, it is not the Lord’s supper that you eat. 21 For in your eating each one takes his own supper first. One is hungry, and another is drunken. 22 What, don’t you have houses to eat and to drink in? Or do you despise God’s assembly and put them to shame who don’t have enough? What shall I tell you? Shall I praise you? In this I don’t praise you.

23 For I received from the Lord that which also I delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night in which he was betrayed took bread. 24 When he had given thanks, he broke it and said, "Take, eat. This is my body, which is broken for you. Do this in memory of me." 25 In the same way he also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink, in memory of me." 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

27 Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord. 28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself if he doesn’t discern the Lord’s body. 30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. 31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn’t be judged. 32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world. 33 Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another. 34 But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.

1 Kia rite tā koutou ki tāku, me tāku ka rite nei ki tā te Karaiti.

Hīpokina te Upoko i te Koropikotanga

2 Nā, e whakamoemiti ana ahau ki a koutou, mō koutou ka mahara ki ahau i ngā mea katoa, ka pupuri hoki i ngā whakarerenga iho, i āku i tuku atu nā ki a koutou. 3 Nā, e mea ana ahau kia mātau koutou, ko te Karaiti te upoko o ngā tāne katoa; ko te tāne te upoko o te wahine; ko te Atua anō te upoko o te Karaiti. 4 Ko te tangata e īnoi ana, e poropiti ana, me te hīpoki anō te upoko, e whakaiti ana ia i tōna upoko. 5 Ko te wahine ia e īnoi ana e poropiti ana rānei, kāhore nei he hīpoki o te upoko, e whakaiti ana ia i tōna upoko. E rite tonu ana tēnā ānō kua oti tōna upoko te heu. 6 Ki te kāhore hoki te wahine e hīpokina, kia waruhia hoki ia. Ki te mea he mea whakamā ki te wahine kia waruhia, kia heua rānei, me hīpoki ia. 7 E kore hoki e tika mō te tāne kia hīpokina tōna upoko, ko te āhua hoki ia, ko te korōria o te Atua. Ko te wahine ia te korōria o te tāne. 8 Ehara hoki i te mea nō te wahine te tāne, engari, nō te tāne te wahine. 9 Kīhai anō te tāne i hangā mā te wahine, engari, ko te wahine mā te tāne. 10 Koia i tika ai hei runga i te upoko o te wahine te tohu o te mana, he mea mō ngā anahera.

11 Ahakoa rā, e kore te tāne e motuhia kētia i te wahine, e kore anō te wahine e motuhia kētia i te tāne, i roto i te Ariki. 12 Nō roto hoki i te tāne te wahine, waihoki, i nā te wahine mai te tāne; nā te Atua anō ia ngā mea katoa. 13 Mā koutou tonu e whakaaro: he mea pai rānei kia īnoi hīpokikore te wahine ki te Atua? 14 E kore rānei te whakaaro māori nei anō e ako i a koutou, ki te mea he makawe roroa o te tāne, he mea whakatūtūa tērā mōna? 15 Tēnā, ki te mea he makawe roroa o te wahine, he mea whakakorōria tērā mōna. Kua hoatu hoki ōna makawe ki a ia hei hīpoki. 16 Otirā, ki te mea he āhua totohe tētahi, kāhore ō mātou ritenga pērā, kāhore hoki o ngā hāhi a te Atua.

Te Hapa a te Ariki

17 I ahau ia e kōrero nei i tēnei ki a koutou, kāhore āku whakamoemiti ki a koutou, kāhore hoki koutou e whakamine mō te pai, engari mō te kino. 18 Nā, ko te tuatahi, i a koutou ka whakamine ki roto ki te hāhi, ka rongo ahau he wehewehenga kei roto i a koutou; ā, e whakapono ana ahau ki tētahi wāhi. 19 Kua takoto hoki kia whai tītorehanga koutou, kia kitea ai te hunga e paingia ana i roto i a koutou. 20 Nā, ka huihui koutou ki te wāhi kotahi, e kore e taea kia kai i te hapa a te Ariki. 21 I te mea hoki e kai ana koutou, ka kai tēnā, tēnā, i tāna hapa i mua atu i tētahi; ā, ka hiakai tētahi, ka haurangi tētahi. 22 He aha? Kāhore koia ō koutou whare e kai ai, e inu ai koutou? E whakahāwea ana rānei koutou ki te hāhi a te Atua, e mea ana hoki kia whakamā te hunga kāhore nei ā rātou mea? Kia pēhea atu tāku kupu ki a koutou? Kia whakamoemiti oti ahau ki a koutou mō tēnei mea? E kore rā ahau e whakamoemiti.

23 Kua riro mai hoki i ahau i te Ariki tāku i tuku atu rā ki a koutou, arā, i taua pō i tukua ai ia, i tangohia e te Ariki, e Īhu, te taro, 24 ā, ka mutu te whakawhetai, ka whatia e ia, nā ka mea ia, "Tangohia, kainga; ko tōku tinana tēnei ka whatiwhatia nei mō koutou. Meinga tēnei hei whakamahara ki ahau." 25 Me te kapu anō i te mutunga o te hapa, me tāna mea anō, "Ko te kawenata hou tēnei kapu i runga i ōku toto. Meinga tēnei i ngā inumanga katoa hei whakamahara ki ahau." 26 I ngā wā katoa hoki e kai ai koutou i tēnei taro, e inu ai i tēnei kapu, e whakakitea ana e koutou te matenga o te Ariki, kia tae mai rā anō ia.

27 Mō reira ki te kai hē tētahi, ki te inu hē i te kapu a te Ariki, ka whai hara ia i te tinana, i ngā toto, o te Ariki. 28 Engari, kia uiui te tangata ki a ia anō, ka kai ai i taua taro, ka inu ai i taua kapu. 29 Nō te mea ki te kai hē, ki te inu hē tētahi, e kai ana, e inu ana i te whakawā mōna, tē whakaaro ko te tinana o te Ariki. 30 Nō konei hoki he tokomaha i roto i a koutou e ngoikore ana, e mate ana, he tokomaha, anō kua moe. 31 Me i whakawā hoki tātou i a tātou anō, kīhai i whakataua te hē ki a tātou. 32 Ki te whakawākia ia tātou, he mea whakaako tātou nā te Ariki, kei tukua ngātahitia tātou me te ao ki te hē.

33 Heoi, e ōku tēina, ka huihui koutou ki te kai, me tatari tētahi ki tētahi. 34 Ki te hiakai tētahi, hei roto i tōna whare kai ai; kei ai tō koutou huihuinga hei take whakawā.

Ko ērā atu mea hoki, māku e whakatika ina tae atu ahau.
