1 Corinthians 2
1 And I, when I came to you, brethren, came not in excellency of word, or wisdom, announcing to you the testimony of God.
Anuanom, bere a mebaa mo nkyɛn bɛkaa Onyankopɔn ho ahintasɛm a ɛyɛ nokware kyerɛɛ mo no, manka asɛm a ɛkyere adwene anaa nyansa a ɛtra mo so.
2 For I did not judge [it well] to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
Meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ bere a me ne mo wɔ hɔ no, mɛma me werɛ afi biribiara gye Yesu Kristo nko; na ne titiriw no, ne wu wɔ asennua no so no.
3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling;
Enti bere a mebaa mo hɔ no, na meyɛ mmerɛw a ehu ne ahopopo aka me.
4 and my word and my preaching, not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of [the] Spirit and of power;
Na nkyerɛkyerɛ a mekyerɛkyerɛɛ no nso mannyina anyansasɛm ne nnipa adwene so, na mmom menam kasa pa so daa tumi a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn Honhom Kronkron no mu no adi.
5 that your faith might not stand in men's wisdom, but in God's power.
Enti mo gyidi nnyina onipa nyansa so, na mmom egyina Onyankopɔn tumi so.
6 But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought. (aiōn g165)
Mekasa nyansa mu kyerɛ wɔn a wɔanyinyin wɔ Honhom mu. Nanso saa nyansa no nyɛ wiase nyansa anaa wiase yi mu tumi ahorow a wɔn tumi resa no. (aiōn g165)
7 But we speak God's wisdom in [a] mystery, that hidden [wisdom] which God had predetermined before the ages for our glory: (aiōn g165)
Nyansasɛm a meka no yɛ Onyankopɔn nyansa a wɔde ahintaw nnipa. Ɛno na Onyankopɔn ayi ato hɔ ama yɛn dedaw sɛ yɛn anuonyam ahyɛde ansa na wɔrebɔ wiase. (aiōn g165)
8 which none of the princes of this age knew, (for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory; ) (aiōn g165)
Aman sodifo biara nnim saa nyansa no. Sɛ wonim a anka wɔremmɔ Awurade a anuonyam ahyɛ no ma no asennua mu. (aiōn g165)
9 but according as it is written, Things which eye has not seen, and ear not heard, and which have not come into man's heart, which God has prepared for them that love him,
Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Nea onipa biara anhu na wante da, nea onipa biara annwene ho sɛ ɛbɛba da no, ɛno na Onyankopɔn no ara asiesie ama wɔn a wɔdɔ no no.”
10 but God has revealed to us by [his] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
Na yɛn na Onyankopɔn nam ne Honhom Kronkron no so ada nʼahintasɛm yi adi akyerɛ yɛn. Honhom no pɛɛpɛɛ biribiara mu kosi Onyankopɔn ahintasɛm a emu dɔ no so.
11 For who of men hath known the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? thus also the things of God knows no one except the Spirit of God.
Onipa de, ɔno ara ne honhom a ɛte ne mu no na enim ne ho nsɛm nyinaa; saa ara nso na Onyankopɔn Honhom no nko ara na enim Onyankopɔn ho nsɛm nyinaa.
12 But we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which [is] of God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of God:
Ɛnyɛ wiase yi mu honhom na yɛanya; Honhom Kronkron a Onyankopɔn somaa no no na yɛanya sɛnea ɛbɛma yɛahu nea Onyankopɔn de ama yɛn no nyinaa.
13 which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, communicating spiritual [things] by spiritual [means].
Enti ɛnyɛ nsɛm a nnipa de wɔn nyansa akyerɛ yɛn no na yɛka, na mmom nsɛm a Honhom no akyerɛ yɛn no na yɛnam Honhom no mu nokware reda saa honhom mu nsɛm yi adi akyerɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ Honhom no.
14 But [the] natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him; and he cannot know [them] because they are spiritually discerned;
Nanso obi a onni Honhom no rentumi nnya akyɛde a efi Onyankopɔn Honhom no mu. Ɔrente ase da biara da; ɔfa no sɛ nsɛm a aba nni mu, efisɛ wogyina Honhom no nko so na wobetumi anya ntease a ɛsɛ.
15 but the spiritual discerns all things, and he is discerned of no one.
Onipa a Honhom no te ne mu no tumi sese biribiara nanso obiara rentumi mmu no atɛn.
16 For who has known the mind of [the] Lord, who shall instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Hena na onim Awurade adwene? Hena na obetumi atu no fo?” Nanso yɛn de, yɛwɔ Kristo adwene no bi.
