1 كورنثوس 2
| وَأَنَا، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، لَمَّا جِئْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ لأُعْلِنَ لَكُمْ شَهَادَةَ اللهِ، مَا جِئْتُ بِالْكَلامِ الْبَلِيغِ أَوِ الْحِكْمَةِ. | ١ 1 |
When I came to you, brothers, I did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom.
| إِذْ كُنْتُ عَازِماً أَلّا أَعْرِفَ شَيْئاً بَيْنَكُمْ إِلّا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحَ، وَأَنْ أَعْرِفَهُ مَصْلُوباً. | ٢ 2 |
For I resolved to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
| وَقَدْ كُنْتُ عِنْدَكُمْ فِي حَالَةٍ مِنَ الضَّعْفِ وَالْخَوْفِ وَالارْتِعَادِ الْكَثِيرِ. | ٣ 3 |
I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.
| وَلَمْ يَقُمْ كَلامِي وَتَبْشِيرِي عَلَى الإِقْنَاعِ بِكَلامِ الْحِكْمَةِ، بَلْ عَلَى مَا يُعْلِنُهُ الرُّوحُ وَالْقُدْرَةُ. | ٤ 4 |
And my word and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
| وَذلِكَ لِكَيْ يَتَأَسَّسَ إِيمَانُكُمْ، لَا عَلَى حِكْمَةِ النَّاسِ، بَلْ عَلَى قُدْرَةِ اللهِ. | ٥ 5 |
so that your faith would not be based on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
| عَلَى أَنَّ لَنَا حِكْمَةً نَتَكَلَّمُ بِها بَيْنَ الْبَالِغِينَ. وَلَكِنَّهَا حِكْمَةٌ لَيْسَتْ مِنْ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ وَلا مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ الزَّائِلِينَ. (aiōn g165) | ٦ 6 |
Now we speak wisdom among the mature, but not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are being brought to nothing. (aiōn g165)
| بَلْ إِنَّنَا نَتَكَلَّمُ بِحِكْمَةِ اللهِ السِّرَّيَّةِ، تِلْكَ الْحِكْمَةِ الْمَحْجُوبَةِ الَّتِي سَبَقَ اللهُ فَأَعَدَّهَا قَبْلَ الدُّهُورِ لأَجْلِ مَجْدِنَا (aiōn g165) | ٧ 7 |
On the contrary, we speak the hidden wisdom of God in a mystery, which God foreordained for our glory before time began. (aiōn g165)
| وَهِيَ حِكْمَةٌ لَمْ يَعْرِفْهَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ رُؤَسَاءِ هَذَا الْعَالَمِ. فَلَوْ عَرَفُوهَا، (aiōn g165) | ٨ 8 |
None of the rulers of this age understood this wisdom, for if they had understood it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
| لَمَا صَلَبُوا رَبَّ الْمَجْدِ! وَلَكِنْ، وَفْقاً لِمَا كُتِبَ: «إِنَّ مَا لَمْ تَرَهُ عَيْنٌ، وَلَمْ تَسْمَعْ بِهِ أُذُنٌ، وَلَمْ يَخْطُرْ عَلَى بَالِ بَشَرٍ قَدْ أَعَدَّهُ اللهُ لِمُحِبِّيهِ!» | ٩ 9 |
But, as it is written, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no heart has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”
| وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ كَشَفَ لَنَا ذَلِكَ بِالرُّوحِ. فَإِنَّ الرُّوحَ يَتَقَصَّى كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، حَتَّى أَعْمَاقَ اللهِ. | ١٠ 10 |
Now God has revealed these things to us through his Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.
| فَمَنْ مِنَ النَّاسِ يَعْرِفُ مَا فِي الإِنْسَانِ إِلّا رُوحُ الإِنْسَانِ الَّذِي فِيهِ؛ وَكَذلِكَ فَإِنَّ مَا فِي اللهِ أَيْضاً لَا يَعْرِفُهُ أَحَدٌ إِلّا رُوحُ اللهِ. | ١١ 11 |
For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
| وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَقَدْ نِلْنَا لَا رُوحَ الْعَالَمِ بَلِ الرُّوحَ الَّذِي مِنَ اللهِ، لِنَعْرِفَ الأُمُورَ الَّتِي وُهِبَتْ لَنَا مِنْ قِبَلِ اللهِ. | ١٢ 12 |
Now we did not receive the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we might understand what God has freely given us.
| وَنَحْنُ نَتَكَلَّمُ بِهَذِهِ الأُمُورِ لَا فِي كَلامٍ تُعَلِّمُهُ الْحِكْمَةُ الْبَشَرِيَّةُ، بَلْ فِي كَلامٍ يُعَلِّمُهُ الرُّوحُ الْقُدُسُ، مُعَبِّرِينَ عَنِ الْحَقَائِقِ الرُّوحِيَّةِ بِوَسَائِلَ رُوحِيَّةٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
We speak about this, not with words taught by human wisdom but with words taught by the Holy Spirit, interpreting spiritual things to spiritual people.
| غَيْرَ أَنَّ الإِنْسَانَ غَيْرَ الرُّوحِيِّ لَا يَتَقَبَّلُ أُمُورَ رُوحِ اللهِ إِذْ يَعْتَبِرُهَا جَهَالَةً، وَلا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَعْرِفَهَا لأَنَّ تَمْيِيزَهَا إِنَّمَا يَحْتَاجُ إِلَى حِسٍّ رُوحِيٍّ. | ١٤ 14 |
The natural man does not accept what comes from the Spirit of God, because it is foolishness to him; he is not able to understand it because it is spiritually discerned.
| أَمَّا الإِنْسَانُ الرُّوحِيُّ، فَهُوَ يُمَيِّزُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ، وَلا يُحْكَمُ فِيهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ. | ١٥ 15 |
But he who is spiritual makes judgments about all things, and yet he himself is not subject to any man's judgment.
| فَإِنَّهُ «مَنْ عَرَفَ فِكْرَ الرَّبِّ؟» وَمَنْ يُعَلِّمُهُ؟ وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ، فَلَنَا فِكْرُ الْمَسِيحِ! | ١٦ 16 |
“For who has known the mind of the Lord so as to advise him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
