1 Korinterne 2

1 Og jeg, Brødre! da jeg kom til eder, kom jeg ikke og forkyndte eder Guds Vidnesbyrd med Stormægtighed i Tale eller i Visdom;

And I, brethren, having come unto you, came not in the excellency of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming unto you the testimony of God.

2 thi jeg agtede ikke at vide noget iblandt eder uden Jesus Kristus og ham korsfæstet;

For I determine to know nothing among you, except Jesus Christ, and Him having been crucified.

3 og jeg færdedes hos eder i Svaghed og i Frygt og megen Bæven,

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

4 og min Tale og min Prædiken var ikke med Visdoms overtalende Ord, men med Aands og Krafts Bevisning,

And my speech and my preaching were not in the persuasive words of wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and the power:

5 for at eders Tro ikke skulde bero paa Menneskers Visdom, men paa Guds Kraft.

in order that your faith may not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

6 Dog, Visdom tale vi iblandt de fuldkomne, men en Visdom, der ikke stammer fra denne Verden, ikke heller fra denne Verdens Herskere, som blive til intet; (aiōn g165)

But we speak wisdom among the perfect: not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nought: (aiōn g165)

7 men vi tale Visdom fra Gud, den hemmelige, den, som var skjult, som Gud før Verdens Begyndelse forudbestemte til vor Herlighed, (aiōn g165)

but we speak the wisdom of God having been hidden in a mystery, which God predestinated before the ages unto our glory: (aiōn g165)

8 hvilken ingen af denne Verdens Herskere har erkendt; thi havde de erkendt den, havde de ikke korsfæstet Herlighedens Herre; (aiōn g165)

which no one of the princes of this age knew; for if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)

9 men, som der er skrevet: „Hvad intet Øje har set, og intet Øre har hørt, og ikke er opkommet i noget Menneskes Hjerte, hvad Gud har beredt dem, som elske ham.”

But, as has been written, the things which eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and has not entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.

10 Men os aabenbarede Gud det ved Aanden; thi Aanden ransager alle Ting, ogsaa Guds Dybder.

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

11 Thi hvilket Menneske ved, hvad der er i Mennesket, uden Menneskets Aand, som er i ham? Saaledes har heller ingen erkendt, hvad der er i Gud, uden Guds Aand.

For who of men knows the things of man, except the spirit of the man which is in him? so indeed no one knows the things of God, except the Spirit of God.

12 Men vi have ikke faaet Verdens Aand, men Aanden fra Gud, for at vi kunne vide, hvad der er os skænket af Gud;

But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God; in order that we may know the things which have been graciously given unto us from God.

13 og dette tale vi ogsaa, ikke med Ord, lærte af menneskelig Visdom, men med Ord, lærte af Aanden, idet vi tolke aandelige Ting med aandelige Ord.

Which things indeed we speak, not in the teachable words of human wisdom, but in the teachable words of the Spirit, expounding spiritual things to spiritual people.

14 Men det sjælelige Menneske tager ikke imod de Ting, som høre Guds Aand til; thi de ere ham en Daarskab, og han kan ikke erkende dem, thi de bedømmes aandeligt.

But the intellectual man receives not the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him; and he is not able to know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

15 Men den aandelige bedømmer alle Ting, selv derimod bedømmes han af ingen.

But the spiritual man discerns all things, and is himself discerned by no one.

16 Thi hvem har kendt Herrens Sind, saa han skulde kunne undervise ham? Men vi have Kristi Sind.

For who knows the mind of the Lord, who shall give him counsel? But we have the mind of Christ.
