< 1 Corinthians 2 >
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.
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 judged not myself to know anything among you, but 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 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
And I in much fear and trembling was with you.
4 And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom, but in shewing of the Spirit and 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 That your faith might not stand on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
that your faith might not be through the wisdom of men, but through the power of Aloha.
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought; (aiōn )
But we speak wisdom among the perfect: not the wisdom of this world, nor the authorities of this world, which are abolished; (aiōn )
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory: (aiōn )
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 )
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew; for if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn )
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 )
9 But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that 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 to us God hath revealed them, by this Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, 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 what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God no man knoweth, but 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 Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God; that we may know the things that are given us from God.
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 Which things also we speak, not in the learned words of human wisdom; but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
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 But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God; for it is foolishness to him, and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined.
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 But the spiritual man judgeth all things; and he himself is judged of no man.
but the spiritual judgeth of every thing, and he of man is not judged.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that we may 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.
