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.
et ego cum venissem ad vos fratres veni non per sublimitatem sermonis aut sapientiae adnuntians vobis testimonium Christi
2 For I determined not to know anything amongst you except Yeshua the Messiah and him crucified.
non enim iudicavi scire me aliquid inter vos nisi Iesum Christum et hunc crucifixum
3 I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
et ego in infirmitate et timore et tremore multo fui apud vos
4 My speech and my proclaiming were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
et sermo meus et praedicatio mea non in persuasibilibus sapientiae verbis sed in ostensione Spiritus et virtutis
5 that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
ut fides vestra non sit in sapientia hominum sed in virtute Dei
6 We speak wisdom, however, amongst 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)
sapientiam autem loquimur inter perfectos sapientiam vero non huius saeculi neque principum huius saeculi qui destruuntur (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)
sed loquimur Dei sapientiam in mysterio quae abscondita est quam praedestinavit Deus ante saecula in gloriam nostram (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)
quam nemo principum huius saeculi cognovit si enim cognovissent numquam Dominum gloriae crucifixissent (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.”
sed sicut scriptum est quod oculus non vidit nec auris audivit nec in cor hominis ascendit quae praeparavit Deus his qui diligunt illum
10 But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
nobis autem revelavit Deus per Spiritum suum Spiritus enim omnia scrutatur etiam profunda Dei
11 For who amongst 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.
quis enim scit hominum quae sint hominis nisi spiritus hominis qui in ipso est ita et quae Dei sunt nemo cognovit nisi Spiritus Dei
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.
nos autem non spiritum mundi accepimus sed Spiritum qui ex Deo est ut sciamus quae a Deo donata sunt nobis
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.
quae et loquimur non in doctis humanae sapientiae verbis sed in doctrina Spiritus spiritalibus spiritalia conparantes
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.
animalis autem homo non percipit ea quae sunt Spiritus Dei stultitia est enim illi et non potest intellegere quia spiritaliter examinatur
15 But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
spiritalis autem iudicat omnia et ipse a nemine iudicatur
16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Messiah’s mind.
quis enim cognovit sensum Domini qui instruat eum nos autem sensum Christi habemus
