1 Ukorintiyawa 2
1 Meng wang, nuanna nilime nan nishon kubi na nwa dak kitimine, na nwa dak nin umon inyiru un litining isa njinjing ninghari ba nwa su munu uliru nimon Kutellẹ ilenge na i nyeshin ba.
When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
2 Nna yyiru na kibinai ning na mma yinnu imonmong kube na nwa di nan nya mine ba, se dei Yisa Kristi cas, na amere i na kotum kuca.
For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
3 Tutung nwa di nanghinu nan nya lidarni, nin fiu a nan nya nkitizu.
I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
4 Uliru nighe nin wazi nighe na nwa su nin nagbulang nrissu kujinjing ba, nani nin dursuzu nimon in yenju nin Ruhu a likara,
My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
5 bara uyinnu sa nyenu fe wa so nan nya kujinjin nanit, nani nsn nys liksrs Kutellẹ.
that your faith would not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
7 Nan nya nani ti di bellu njinjing Kutellẹ nan nya kidegen linyeshin njinjing mo na mi wa nyeshin uworsu, mongo na Kutellẹ wa da ceo uworsu ana kuji bite nsa da ba bar ngongong bite. (aiōn g165)
But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the ages (aiōn g165) for our glory,
8 Na umong nago nko kuje yiru ninn mo njinjing ghe ba, bara andi ina yinin minin nkoni kube, na i wana kotun Cikilarii ugongong ba. (aiōn g165)
which none of the rulers of this age (aiōn g165) has known. For had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9 Nafo na ina nyertin, “Imon ilenge na iyizi nsa yene ba, na kutuf nsa lanza ba, na nkan kibinai nsa kipiliza ba, imon ilenge na Kutellẹ na ke bara alenge na idi nin su me.”
But as it is written, “Things which an eye did not see, and an ear did not hear, which did not enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”
10 Ilenge imonere Kutellẹ na puun nari inin nan nyan Ruhu, bara Uruhu din piziru imon vat, umunu imon iconcom Kutellẹ wang.
But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
11 Ghari yiru ukpilizu kibinai nmong se dei uruhun nlenge na adi nan nya me? Nanere wang, na umon yiru imon iconcom Kutellẹ ba se dei Uruhu Kutellẹ.
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.
12 Nani na arike na seru Uruhu in yih ba, fina na seru Uruhu ule na una nuzu kiti Kutelle, arike nan se ti yinno imon ile na ina ni nari unuzu kiti Kutellẹ sheu.
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.
13 Ti din su uliru kitene nimon nin nagbbwang alenge na njinjing nnit wasa a dursuzu nari. Uruhue din kpilizu agbulang nruhu nin jinjing nruhu.
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.
14 Na unan salin nruhu wasa a sere imon ile na idi Nruhu Kutellẹ ba, bara ileli imone nlalanghari kitime. Na awa sa a yinno inin ba bara ina dumun inin nin Ruhu.
Now the natural man does not receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 Ulenge na adi nin ruhu wasa a wuco imon vat, ana imong wasa a wuco imon me ba.
But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
16 “Nani ghari wasa ayinno kibinai nCikilare, na ama dursuzu ghe?” Vat nani ti din kibinai nKristi.
“For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
