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, having come unto you, brethren, came — not in superiority of discourse or wisdom — declaring to you the testimony of God,

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

for I decided not to know any thing among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified;

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

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

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

and my word and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power —

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

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)

And wisdom we speak among the perfect, and wisdom not of this age, nor of the rulers of this age — of those becoming useless, (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 hidden wisdom of God in a secret, that God foreordained before the ages to 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 rulers of this age did know, for if they had known, the Lord of the glory they would not have crucified; (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, according as it hath been written, 'What eye did not see, and ear did not hear, and upon the heart of man came not up, what God did prepare for those loving Him — '

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

but to us did God reveal [them] through His Spirit, for the Spirit all things doth search, even the depths 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 hath known the things of the man, except the spirit of the man that [is] in him? so also the things of God no one hath known, 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;

And we the spirit of the world did not receive, but the Spirit that [is] of God, that we may know the things conferred by God on us,

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 also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Holy Spirit, with spiritual things spiritual things comparing,

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.

and the natural man doth not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for to him they are foolishness, and he is not able to know [them], because spiritually they are discerned;

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

and he who is spiritual, doth discern indeed all things, and he himself is by no one discerned;

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

for who did know the mind of the Lord that he shall instruct Him? and we — we have the mind of Christ.
