1 Corinthians 2
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellence of speech or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.
Ulunainchile khulyomwe valokholo na vakhancha vango, saninchile khumamenyu ga wegane nu ulukhala ndavovwa navalumbelile elweli eye fikhime eya Nguluve.
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you but Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
Nalamwile ukhusita ukhu khemanya khyokhyoni ulunale numwe apange u Yesu Klisite, nu umwene uveatesikhe.
3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling:
Pwu nale numwe bila ya amakha, na mumbodwado, nu khutetema.
4 and my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
Elimenyu lyango nu hulumbelela khwango sakhwale mu mamenyu ga vwugane nu lukhala lwa khuva, gale ukhumbonesya umepo na amakha.
5 that your faith might not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Pwu ulwedekho lwenyo yesite ukhuva mu ndukhala lwa vanu, love mumakha aga Nguluve.
6 Yet we speak wisdom among the perfect; but not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are brought to nought: (aiōn g165)
Leno twenchova helukhala na avanu avavakha, syo ndukhala lwa khilunga ehe, apange avalongonchi ava misekhe ege, vavo vilota. (aiōn g165)
7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, even that which had been hidden, which God predestined before the ages, for our glory, (aiōn g165)
Ulwa khuva twinchova ulukhala lwa Nguluve mu yelweli yeyo eyefihiwe, ulukhala lulwa lufihime ulwa alokhalile u Nguluve vwosagefikhe emisekhe egya vuvalanche vweto. (aiōn g165)
8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for, had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory. (aiōn g165)
Asikhili ondongonchi yeyone uvaemisekhe ege yuywa alumanyile ulukhala ulu, vale valumanyage emisekhe gela, ndalino savantesye Untwa va uvalanche. (aiōn g165)
9 But, as it is written: Eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and into the heart of man have not entered the things which God has prepared for them that love him.
Nda vovwa yesimbiwe, “Embombo nchicho lisikhuli embolokhuto eyepulikhe, amasago sagasage, imbombo nchincho Nguluve anchitesaninche khuvavo avaganile umwene.
10 But God has revealed them to us through his Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
Inchi ncho mbombo incho u Nguluve anchigubatwile khulyofwe khugendela umepo, ulwa khuwa umepo ikhongela khila khenu, na nchimbombo incha Nguluve.
11 For what man knows the things of man, but the spirit of man which is in him? Even so, the things of God no one knows, but the Spirit of God.
Ulwa khuva veni agamanyile amasago ga munu apange u mepo va Nguluve.
12 And we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God:
Ulwa khuva satwaambelele emepo ya khelunga, u mepo uveakhomile khwa Nguluve, pwu tulumanye khu vwudekhe imbombo nchicho twambelile khwa Nguluve.
13 which things also we speak, not in words taught by man’s wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
Twinchova amamenyu aga gago ulukhala lwa munu saluwesya ukhumanyisya gago u mepo ikhotumanyisya u mepo iganula amamenyu aga he mepo khu lukhala lwa mepo.
14 But an animal man receives not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he can not know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
Umunu uvealevovole umepo sikhupela imbombo incha mepo va Nguluve, ulwa khuva ago gahekonyofu khumwene. Siwesya ukhugamanya ulwa khuva gimanye khekha he mepo.
15 But the spiritual man discerns all things; yet he himself is discerned by no one.
Uva mepo ekhega imbombo nchoni, vope ikhegiwa na vange.
16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
“Veni iwesya ukhugamanya amasago ga Ntwa, veni uveiwesya ukhumanyisya umwene?” Pwu tulenamasage ga Klisite.
