1 Corinthians 2
1 When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.
Kuom mano jowetena, kane abiro iru to ne ok abiro gi weche mamit kata gi rieko kayalonu matut wach ma lingʼ-lingʼ mar Nyasaye.
2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
Nikech nangʼado wach e chunya ni kik angʼe gimoro amora machielo makmana Yesu Kristo kod gur mare.
3 I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.
Ne abiro iru gi nyawo kod luoro, kendo ka denda duto tetni.
4 My message and my preaching were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,
Kane awuoyo kodu kendo ayalonu, to ne ok akonyora gi weche mamit kata mariek maywayo ji, to teko mar Roho ema onyisou ni wach mane ayalonu ne en adier
5 so that your faith would not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.
mondo yieu kik gurre kuom rieko dhano, to ogurre mana kuom teko Nyasaye.
6 Among the mature, however, we speak a message of wisdom—but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. (aiōn g165)
Kata kamano, wayalo rieko ni joma otegno, to ok rieko mag tiengʼni, kata mag ruodhi mandalogi, mabiro lal nono. (aiōn g165)
7 No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began. (aiōn g165)
Ooyo, wawuoyo kuom rieko mopondo mar Nyasaye, ma en rieko mosebedo kopandi kendo mane Nyasaye oikonwa nyaka aa chakruok piny mondo wayud duongʼ. (aiōn g165)
8 None of the rulers of this age understood it. For if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
Jotend pinyni kata achiel ok nowinjo tiend rieko mwayaloni, nikech ka dine giwinje, to ok dine giguro Ruodh Duongʼ. (aiōn g165)
9 Rather, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart has imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him.”
To en mana kaka ondiki niya, “Onge wangʼ moseneno, kata it mosewinjo, kata paro mosengʼeyo gima Nyasaye oseiko ne joma ohere.”
10 But God has revealed it to us by the Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
Wan to Nyasaye oseelonwa tiend wachne mopondo kuom teko mar Roho mare. Roho Maler fwenyo gik moko duto, nyaka weche matut mag Nyasaye.
11 For who among men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
Koso nitie ngʼato manyalo ngʼeyo pach ngʼat machielo? Donge chuny ngʼato owuon ema ongʼeyo gima ni e iye? Kamano bende e kaka onge ngʼat mongʼeyo pach Nyasaye makmana Roho mar Nyasaye.
12 We have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
Roho mwaseyudo ok en roho mar piny, to en Roho moa kuom Nyasaye, mamiyo wangʼeyo mich ma Nyasaye osemiyowa.
13 And this is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.
Mago e weche mwawuoyo kuomgi, ka ok wakonyre gi weche mopuonjwa gi rieko dhano, to wakonyore gi weche ma Roho ema opuonjo, kwalero adiera mag chuny gi weche mag chuny.
14 The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
To ngʼat ringruok ok nyal rwako gik moa kuom Roho mar Nyasaye, nikech onenogi kaka fuwo kendo ok onyal winjo tiendgi, nikech iwinjogi kuom Roho.
15 The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment.
Ngʼat man-gi Roho nono gik moko duto, to en to onge ngʼama none.
16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
“Koso en ngʼa mosengʼeyo pach Jehova Nyasaye ma dingʼadne rieko?” Wan to wan gi pach Kristo.
