1 Corinthians 2
1 And I, brethren, when I came unto you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲁ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲧⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲟⲩϭⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲓⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲉⲓⲧⲁⲙⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
ⲃ̅⳿ⲙⲡⲓϯϩⲁⲡ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲒⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲫⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲁⲩⲁϣϥ.
3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
ⲅ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲕ ϩⲱ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲥⲑⲉⲛⲏⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩϩⲟϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥⲑⲉⲣⲧⲉⲣ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁϣⲱϥ ⲁⲓ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲱⲧⲉⲛ.
4 And my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
ⲇ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲁⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲁϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⲛⲁϥϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲑⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲟⲩϫⲟⲙ.
5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
ⲉ̅ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
6 We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought: (aiōn g165)
ⲋ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲏ ⲉⲧϫⲏⲕ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲁ ⲡⲁⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲁⲛ ⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲑⲁ ⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲕⲱⲣϥ. (aiōn g165)
7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, [even] the [wisdom] that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: (aiōn g165)
ⲍ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲑⲏⲉⲧϩⲏⲡ ⲑⲏ - ⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣϣⲟⲣⲡ ⳿ⲛⲑⲁϣⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ϧⲁϫⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲛ. (aiōn g165)
8 which none of the rulers of this world hath known: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory: (aiōn g165)
ⲏ̅ⲑⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲁⲣⲭⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲉⲛⲉϩ ⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉ ⲁⲩⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁⲩⲛⲁⲉϣ Ⲡ⳪ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ. (aiōn g165)
9 but as it is written, Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not, And [which] entered not into the heart of man, Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.
ⲑ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥϧⲏⲟⲩⲧ ϫⲉ ⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲃⲁⲗ ⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲙⲁϣϫ ⲥⲟⲑⲙⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϣⲉ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡϩⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁ ⲫϯ ⲥⲉⲃⲧⲱⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏ ⲉⲑⲛⲁⲙⲉⲛⲣⲓⲧϥ.
10 But unto us God revealed [them] through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
ⲓ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲁϥϭⲟⲣⲡⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ϥϧⲟⲧϧⲉⲧ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲭⲁⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϣⲏⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
11 For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲛⲓⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲧⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲉⲧϣⲟⲡ ⳿ⲛϧⲏⲧϥ ⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ⲟⲛ ⲛⲁ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲏⲗ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
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 of God.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲁⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲁⲛϭⲓⲧϥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁ ⲫϯ ⲧⲏⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ.
13 Which things also we speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit teacheth; combining spiritual things with spiritual [words].
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲟⲫⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲁⲛⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥϯ ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲉⲛⲉⲣⲥⲩⲛ⳿ⲕⲣⲓⲛⲓⲛ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ.
14 Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲡⲓⲯⲩⲭⲓⲕⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁϥϣⲉⲡ ⲛⲁ ⲡⲓⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲥⲟϫ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϥ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϣϫⲟⲙ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲉⲙⲓ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩϧⲟⲧϧⲉⲧ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲡⲛ̅ⲁ̅ⲧⲓⲕⲟⲥ.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, and he himself is judged of no man.

16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
