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.

And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret 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 had made the decision to have knowledge of nothing among you but only of Jesus Christ on the cross.

3 Tutung nwa di nanghinu nan nya lidarni, nin fiu a nan nya nkitizu.

And I was with you without strength, in fear and in doubt.

4 Uliru nighe nin wazi nighe na nwa su nin nagbulang nrissu kujinjing ba, nani nin dursuzu nimon in yenju nin Ruhu a likara,

And in my preaching there were no honeyed words of wisdom, but I was dependent on the power of the Spirit to make it clear to you:

5 bara uyinnu sa nyenu fe wa so nan nya kujinjin nanit, nani nsn nys liksrs Kutellẹ.

So that your faith might be based not on man's wisdom but on the power of God.

6 Nene asa ti lira nin kujinjin nan nya na wasara, na njinjing nle uyeh ba, sa njinjing nago nko kuje ba, alenge na kubi mine din katuzu. (aiōn g165)

But still we have wisdom for those who are complete in knowledge, though not the wisdom of this world, and not of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing: (aiōn g165)

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 give the news of the secret wisdom of God, which he had kept in store before the world came into existence, for our glory; (aiōn g165)

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)

Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross: (aiōn g165)

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 says in the holy Writings, Things which the eye saw not, and which had not come to the ears or into the heart of man, such things as God has made ready for those who have love for him.

10 Ilenge imonere Kutellẹ na puun nari inin nan nyan Ruhu, bara Uruhu din piziru imon vat, umunu imon iconcom Kutellẹ wang.

But God has given us the revelation of these things through his Spirit, for the Spirit makes search into all things, even 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 has knowledge of the things of a man but the spirit of the man which is in him? in the same way, no one has knowledge of the things of God but the Spirit of God.

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 have not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which comes from God, so that we may have knowledge of the things which are 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.

And these are the things which we say, not in the language of man's wisdom, but in words given to us by the Spirit, judging the things of the spirit by the help of the Spirit.

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.

For the natural man is not able to take in the things of the Spirit of God: for they seem foolish to him, and he is not able to have knowledge of them, because such knowledge comes only through the Spirit.

15 Ulenge na adi nin ruhu wasa a wuco imon vat, ana imong wasa a wuco imon me ba.

But he who has the Spirit, though judging all things, is himself judged by no one.

16 “Nani ghari wasa ayinno kibinai nCikilare, na ama dursuzu ghe?” Vat nani ti din kibinai nKristi.

For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.
