1 Corinthians 2
1 When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with superiority of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the mystery 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 determined not to know anything among you, except 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 When I was with you, I was weak and afraid and I shook.
Enti bere a mebaa mo hɔ no, na meyɛ mmerɛw a ehu ne ahopopo aka me.
4 My speech and my preaching were 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 would not rest on human wisdom, but on the power of God.
Enti mo gyidi nnyina onipa nyansa so, na mmom egyina Onyankopɔn tumi so.
6 We speak wisdom, however, among those who are mature, but a wisdom not of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are passing away. (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, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God determined in advance 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 rulers of this age has understood. For had they known it, 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 as it is written, No eye has seen, and no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined the things which God has prepared for those who 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 to us God revealed it through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things 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 what person knows the things of a person except the spirit of the person that is in him? So also, no one knows the things of God 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 received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by 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 And we speak of these things, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
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 Now the natural person does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand 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 he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by 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 will 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.
