1 Corinthians 2

1 When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.

N kpiiba, min den gedi i kani ki ba dɔgdi U Tienu ŋasiili ki waani yeni, n dee kubi mi mabanma bii mi yanfuoma ka ki muandi yi.

2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

Kelima min den ye yi siiga yeni, ki jagi ki jagi ki cuo ke Jesu Kristo bábá yaaa ka, min ki bani libá ki ba maadi li po, Jesu Kristo yua ke bi den kpaa o li dapɔnpɔnli po yaa ka.

3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.

N den cua yi kani ki tie nani yiamo yeni, ki jawaani pia nni, ke n jegli paaa.

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

N dee pia mi mabanma leni mi yanfuoma ka, ki tundi i tundi, ki gɔ muandi n laabaali, ama n maama nni leni n tunda nni, Foŋanma n den wangi mi paalu.

5 that your faith would not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

Li den tie yeni ke yin da taa dandanli ki teni o nufosaalo yanfuoma ka, ama ki ya dugi U Tienu paalu po.

6 We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this age (aiōn g165) nor of the rulers of this age (aiōn g165) who are coming to nothing.

Ama leni li kuli, leni mi yanfuoma i ke ti tundi yaaba ke bi yama gagdi Kristo ŋɔgkaaba nni. Li yanfuoma ki tie ŋanduna ne yaama, mi gɔ ki tie ŋanduna ne badbijaba yaama; ban wan ba bia bikuli. (aiōn g165)

7 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,

Ti maadi U Tienu ya yanfuoma i, mi den tie ŋasiili yaama n wuo i, ke u den tuodi ki bobni ti yudandi po ki sua ke ŋanduna da ki ye. (aiōn g165)

8 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.

ŋanduna badbijaba ne, obá naa bani li yanfuoma, bi den kan cedi ke ban kpaa Yudandi Yonbdaano dapɔnpɔnli po. (aiōn g165)

9 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.”

Ama nani lani diani U Tienu tili nni yeni: O nulo nibinli n kan baa lá yaala, ke o tubli mɔ n kan baa gbadi yaala, ya maalma n kan fidi ki kua o nulo pali nni palbi yeni, U Tienu bobni mani yaaba n bua o po.

10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.

Tinba i ke U Tienu cedi ke mi foŋanma wangi ti u ŋasiili, leni i mɔni, mi foŋanma wan nua bonla kuli, bá yaala n wuo U Tienu pali nni mɔno.

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.

ŋma bani yaala n ye bi nifosaalba pali nni? Nifosaalo bábá n bani o pali nni yaala n ye o pali nni. U Tienu mɔ, li tie yeni, U Tienu foŋanma bábá yaa ka, obá ki bani yaala n ye U Tienu pali nni.

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.

Tinba wan ki kubi ŋanduna ne yema ka ki tuuni li tuonli, U Tienu n puuni ti u foŋanma ke ti fidi ki bani wani U Tienu n puni ti ya paabu kuli.

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.

Tin maadi yaala yeni: Ti ki maadi nani nifosaalo yanfomaama n buali maama ka, ti maadi nani U Tienu foŋanma n tundi ti ke tin ya maadi maama i. N nua ke ti wangi yaaba n pia U Tienu foŋanma, yaala n tie U Tienu foŋanma yaala.

14 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.

Ya nulo ki pia U Tienu foŋanma, kan fidi ki gaa yaala n ñani U Tienu foŋanma kani. O ya po li tie gaadmaama i, o kan fidi ki gbadi mi niima nni, kelima U Tienu foŋanma n yen puni bi niba li banma.

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

Yua n pia U Tienu foŋanma ba fidi ki ya bani bonla kuli ya niima nni, ama obá nan kan fidi ki ya bani u ya niima nni.

16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.

Kelima nani lan diani U Tienu tili nni yeni, ŋma bani ti yobdaana maalma, ŋma ba fidi ki teni u i cegli. Tinba wan nan pia Kristo maalma.
