١ كورنثوس 2

١ 1 وَأَنَا لَمَّا أَتَيْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ، أَتَيْتُ لَيْسَ بِسُمُوِّ ٱلْكَلَامِ أَوِ ٱلْحِكْمَةِ مُنَادِيًا لَكُمْ بِشَهَادَةِ ٱللهِ،

When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with superiority of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the mystery of God.

٢ 2 لِأَنِّي لَمْ أَعْزِمْ أَنْ أَعْرِفَ شَيْئًا بَيْنَكُمْ إلَّا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ وَإِيَّاهُ مَصْلُوبًا.

For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus (the) Messiah, and him crucified.

٣ 3 وَأَنَا كُنْتُ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي ضَعْفٍ، وَخَوْفٍ، وَرِعْدَةٍ كَثِيرَةٍ.

When I was with you, I was weak and afraid and I shook.

٤ 4 وَكَلَامِي وَكِرَازَتِي لَمْ يَكُونَا بِكَلَامِ ٱلْحِكْمَةِ ٱلْإِنْسَانِيَّةِ ٱلْمُقْنِعِ، بَلْ بِبُرْهَانِ ٱلرُّوحِ وَٱلْقُوَّةِ،

My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

٥ 5 لِكَيْ لَا يَكُونَ إِيمَانُكُمْ بِحِكْمَةِ ٱلنَّاسِ بَلْ بِقُوَّةِ ٱللهِ.

that your faith would not rest on human wisdom, but on the power of God.

٦ 6 لَكِنَّنَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِحِكْمَةٍ بَيْنَ ٱلْكَامِلِينَ، وَلَكِنْ بِحِكْمَةٍ لَيْسَتْ مِنْ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ، وَلَا مِنْ عُظَمَاءِ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ، ٱلَّذِينَ يُبْطَلُونَ. (aiōn g165)

We speak wisdom, however, among those who are mature, but a wisdom not of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are passing away. (aiōn g165)

٧ 7 بَلْ نَتَكَلَّمُ بِحِكْمَةِ ٱللهِ فِي سِرٍّ: ٱلْحِكْمَةِ ٱلْمَكْتُومَةِ، ٱلَّتِي سَبَقَ ٱللهُ فَعَيَّنَهَا قَبْلَ ٱلدُّهُورِ لِمَجْدِنَا، (aiōn g165)

But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God determined in advance before the ages for our glory, (aiōn g165)

٨ 8 ٱلَّتِي لَمْ يَعْلَمْهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ عُظَمَاءِ هَذَا ٱلدَّهْرِ، لِأَنْ لَوْ عَرَفُوا لَمَا صَلَبُوا رَبَّ ٱلْمَجْدِ. (aiōn g165)

which none of the rulers of this age has understood. For had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)

٩ 9 بَلْ كَمَا هُوَ مَكْتُوبٌ: «مَا لَمْ تَرَ عَيْنٌ، وَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ أُذُنٌ، وَلَمْ يَخْطُرْ عَلَى بَالِ إِنْسَانٍ: مَا أَعَدَّهُ ٱللهُ لِلَّذِينَ يُحِبُّونَهُ».

But as it is written, No eye has seen, and no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined the things which God has prepared for those who love him.

١٠ 10 فَأَعْلَنَهُ ٱللهُ لَنَا نَحْنُ بِرُوحِهِ. لِأَنَّ ٱلرُّوحَ يَفْحَصُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ حَتَّى أَعْمَاقَ ٱللهِ.

But to us God revealed it through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

١١ 11 لِأَنْ مَنْ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ يَعْرِفُ أُمُورَ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ إِلَّا رُوحُ ٱلْإِنْسَانِ ٱلَّذِي فِيهِ؟ هَكَذَا أَيْضًا أُمُورُ ٱللهِ لَا يَعْرِفُهَا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا رُوحُ ٱللهِ.

For what person knows the things of a person except the spirit of the person that is in him? So also, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

١٢ 12 وَنَحْنُ لَمْ نَأْخُذْ رُوحَ ٱلْعَالَمِ، بَلِ ٱلرُّوحَ ٱلَّذِي مِنَ ٱللهِ، لِنَعْرِفَ ٱلْأَشْيَاءَ ٱلْمَوْهُوبَةَ لَنَا مِنَ ٱللهِ،

But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.

١٣ 13 ٱلَّتِي نَتَكَلَّمُ بِهَا أَيْضًا، لَا بِأَقْوَالٍ تُعَلِّمُهَا حِكْمَةٌ إِنْسَانِيَّةٌ، بَلْ بِمَا يُعَلِّمُهُ ٱلرُّوحُ ٱلْقُدُسُ، قَارِنِينَ ٱلرُّوحِيَّاتِ بِٱلرُّوحِيَّاتِ.

And we speak of these things, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.

١٤ 14 وَلَكِنَّ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ ٱلطَّبِيعِيَّ لَا يَقْبَلُ مَا لِرُوحِ ٱللهِ لِأَنَّهُ عِنْدَهُ جَهَالَةٌ، وَلَا يَقْدِرُ أَنْ يَعْرِفَهُ لِأَنَّهُ إِنَّمَا يُحْكَمُ فِيهِ رُوحِيًّا.

Now the natural person does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

١٥ 15 وَأَمَّا ٱلرُّوحِيُّ فَيَحْكُمُ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَهُوَ لَايُحْكَمُ فِيهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ.

But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.

١٦ 16 «لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ عَرَفَ فِكْرَ ٱلرَّبِّ فَيُعَلِّمَهُ؟». وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَلَنَا فِكْرُ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.

For, "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will instruct him?" But we have the mind of Messiah.
