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.
Mwet lili luk, ke pacl se nga tuh tuku nu yuruwos in fahkak nu suwos ma pwaye lun God su tia eteyuk meet, nga tuh tia orekmakin kas loal ku kas in lalmwetmet.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
Ke pacl nga muta yuruwos ah, nga tuh sulela sik in mulkunla ma nukewa sayen Jesus Christ, ac yokna ke misa lal fin sakseng.
3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
Ouinge ke nga tuku nu yuruwos ah, nga tuh munas ac rarrar monuk nufon ke sangeng,
4 My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
ac mwe luti ac fahkak luk ah tuh tiana fahla ke kas oa ku kas lalmwetmet lun mwet, a ke kas ma arulana akkalemye ku lun Ngun lun God.
5 that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Ouinge, lulalfongi lowos tia oakwuki ke lalmwetmet lun mwet, a ke ku lun God.
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)
Ne ouinge, nga sulkakin pweng lalmwetmet nu selos su matu tari ke moul in ngun. Tusruktu lalmwetmet se inge tia ma lun faclu, ac tia pac ma lun ku su leumi faclu — ku sac fahfahla in wanginla. (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)
Lalmwetmet se su nga sulkakin inge pa lalmwetmet lukma lun God, su wikla liki mwet uh, ac su El nuna sulela nu ke wolana lasr meet liki orekla faclu. (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)
Wangin sie sin leum fin faclu etu ke lalmwetmet se inge. Elos funu etu, elos lukun tia srupusrak Leum lun wolana. (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.”
Tusruktu, in oana Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Ma su mwet uh soenna liye ku lohng, Ma se su mwet uh soenna nunkauk mu ku in sikyak, Pa ma se ma God El akola nu selos su lungse El.”
10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
Tuh God El akkalemye ma inge nu sesr ke Ngun lal. Ngun el tuni ma nukewa, finne sripa loallana lun God.
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.
Ngunin mwet se sifacna pa etu ma nukewa kacl; in lumah sacna, Ngun lun God mukena pa etu ma nukewa ke God.
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.
Kut tia eis ngun lun faclu, a kut eis Ngun se su supweyukme sin God, tuh kut fah ku in etu ma nukewa ma God El ase nu sesr.
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.
Ke ma inge, kut tia luti ke kas su lutiyuk ke lalmwetmet lun mwet, a ke kas ma lutiyuk sin Ngun Mutal, oana ke kut aketeya ma pwaye lun ngun nu selos su oasr Ngun yoro.
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.
Kutena mwet su Ngun Mutal tia oasr in el, el koflana eis mwe sang ma tuku sin Ngun lun God. El su ouinge koflana kalem kac; ma inge ma lalfon nu sel, mweyen saokiyen ma inge akilenyuk ke ngun mukena.
15 But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
Kutena mwet su oasr Ngun yoro, oasr kalem lal in nununku ma nukewa, tusruktu wangin sie ac ku in nununkal.
16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
Oana Ma Simusla uh fahk, “Su etu nunak lun Leum? Su ku in sang kas in kasru nu sel?” Tusruktu, nunak lun Christ oasr yorosr.
