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.

And I, my brethren, when I came to you, not with grandeur of speech, nor with wisdom, did I evangelize to you the mystery of Aloha.

2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

And I considered myself among you as not knowing any thing unless Jeshu Meshiha, and him also as crucified.

3 I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.

And I in much fear and trembling was with you.

4 My message and my preaching were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,

And my speech and my preaching were not with the persuasion of the words of wisdom, but with the demonstration of the Spirit and of power;

5 so that your faith would not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.

that your faith might not be through the wisdom of men, but through the power of Aloha.

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)

But we speak wisdom among the perfect: not the wisdom of this world, nor the authorities of this world, which are abolished; (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)

but we speak the wisdom of Aloha in the mystery which was hidden, and which Aloha predetermined from before the worlds unto our glorification; (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)

which not one of the authorities of this world hath known; for if they had known it, the Lord of glory they would not have crucified. (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.”

But as it is written, The eye hath not seen, Nor the ear heard, Nor the heart of man hath risen (to), That which Aloha hath prepared for those who love him.

10 But God has revealed it to us by the Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

BUT unto us hath Aloha revealed, by his Spirit. For the Spirit all things searcheth, also the depths of Aloha.

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.

For what man knoweth what is in man, save the spirit of a man which is in him? so also that which is in Aloha man knoweth not, but only the Spirit of Aloha.

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.

But we not the spirit of this world have received, but the Spirit who is from Aloha, that we might know that the gifts from Aloha are given unto us;

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.

which also we speak, not with the learning of words of wisdom of men, but with the learning of the Spirit; and with spirituals the spirituals we compare.

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.

For the man who is animal receiveth not spirituals, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot know them, because they by the Spirit are judged of;

15 The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment.

but the spiritual judgeth of every thing, and he of man is not judged.

16 “For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord to teach him? But we have the mind of the Meshiha.
