< 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.
And I myself And I myself having come to you, brothers, came not according to excellency of speech or wisdom proclaiming to you the (mystery *N+kO) of God.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
Nothing for I decided (of the *k) anything to know among you only except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
And I myself And I myself in weakness and in fear and in trembling much was with you;
4 My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
And the message of mine and the preaching of mine [were] not in persuasive (of human *K) of wisdom words but in demonstration of [the] Spirit and of power,
5 that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
so that the faith of you not may be in wisdom of men but in power of 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)
Wisdom however we speak among the mature, wisdom however not age of this nor of the rulers age of this who are coming to naught; (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)
But we speak of God wisdom in a mystery which hidden, which foreordained God before the ages for glory of us, (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)
which none of the rulers age of this has understood; if for they had understood [it], not then would the Lord of glory they crucified, (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.”
but even as it has been written: What eye not has seen and ear not has heard and into heart of man not has entered, (what *NK+O) has prepared God for those loving Him.
10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
To us (and *NK+o) revealed [it] God through the Spirit (of him; *k) The for Spirit all things searches, even the depths of 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.
Who for knows among men the [things] of the man only except the spirit of the man that [is] within him? So also the [things] of God no [one] (has known *N+kO) only except the Spirit of 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.
We ourselves now not the spirit of the world have received but the Spirit who [is] from God, that we may know the [things] by God having been granted to us;
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.
which also we speak not in taught of human wisdom words but in [those] taught of [the] Spirit (Holy *K) by spiritual [means] spiritual things communicating.
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.
[The] natural however man not accepts the [things] of the Spirit of God, foolishness for to him they are, and not he is able to understand [them], because spiritually they are discerned.
15 But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
He who [is] however spiritual judges all things he himself however by no [one] is judged.
16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
Who for has known [the] mind of [the] Lord? Who will instruct Him? We ourselves however [the] mind of Christ have.
