1 Corinthians 2
1 When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
Kuom mano jowetena, kane abiro iru to ne ok abiro gi weche mamit kata gi rieko kayalonu matut wach ma lingʼ-lingʼ mar Nyasaye.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
Nikech nangʼado wach e chunya ni kik angʼe gimoro amora machielo makmana Yesu Kristo kod gur mare.
3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
Ne abiro iru gi nyawo kod luoro, kendo ka denda duto tetni.
4 My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
Kane awuoyo kodu kendo ayalonu, to ne ok akonyora gi weche mamit kata mariek maywayo ji, to teko mar Roho ema onyisou ni wach mane ayalonu ne en adier
5 that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
mondo yieu kik gurre kuom rieko dhano, to ogurre mana kuom teko Nyasaye.
6 We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this world nor of the rulers of this world who are coming to nothing. (aiōn g165)
Kata kamano, wayalo rieko ni joma otegno, to ok rieko mag tiengʼni, kata mag ruodhi mandalogi, mabiro lal nono. (aiōn g165)
7 But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory, (aiōn g165)
Ooyo, wawuoyo kuom rieko mopondo mar Nyasaye, ma en rieko mosebedo kopandi kendo mane Nyasaye oikonwa nyaka aa chakruok piny mondo wayud duongʼ. (aiōn g165)
8 which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
Jotend pinyni kata achiel ok nowinjo tiend rieko mwayaloni, nikech ka dine giwinje, to ok dine giguro Ruodh Duongʼ. (aiōn g165)
9 But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”
To en mana kaka ondiki niya, “Onge wangʼ moseneno, kata it mosewinjo, kata paro mosengʼeyo gima Nyasaye oseiko ne joma ohere.”
10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
Wan to Nyasaye oseelonwa tiend wachne mopondo kuom teko mar Roho mare. Roho Maler fwenyo gik moko duto, nyaka weche matut mag Nyasaye.
11 For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except God’s Spirit.
Koso nitie ngʼato manyalo ngʼeyo pach ngʼat machielo? Donge chuny ngʼato owuon ema ongʼeyo gima ni e iye? Kamano bende e kaka onge ngʼat mongʼeyo pach Nyasaye makmana Roho mar Nyasaye.
12 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.
Roho mwaseyudo ok en roho mar piny, to en Roho moa kuom Nyasaye, mamiyo wangʼeyo mich ma Nyasaye osemiyowa.
13 We also speak these things, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
Mago e weche mwawuoyo kuomgi, ka ok wakonyre gi weche mopuonjwa gi rieko dhano, to wakonyore gi weche ma Roho ema opuonjo, kwalero adiera mag chuny gi weche mag chuny.
14 Now the natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him; and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
To ngʼat ringruok ok nyal rwako gik moa kuom Roho mar Nyasaye, nikech onenogi kaka fuwo kendo ok onyal winjo tiendgi, nikech iwinjogi kuom Roho.
15 But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
Ngʼat man-gi Roho nono gik moko duto, to en to onge ngʼama none.
16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
“Koso en ngʼa mosengʼeyo pach Jehova Nyasaye ma dingʼadne rieko?” Wan to wan gi pach Kristo.
