< 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.
Lwanahenzele humwenyu kolo nu yilombo bhane, saganahenzele namazu giushawishi ni njele hansi ahusu Ungolobhe.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
Nahamuye asagamanye shoshonti lwanahelo namwe ila wha Yesu uKristi, numwene wateseshe.
3 When I was with you, I was weak and afraid and I shook.
Nalinamwe whuu dhowofu, huwogo na katika ayinje hani.
4 My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
Niizu lyane lyalombelele huline sagawhaleho whumazu giushawishi ni njele. Badala yakwe, gali katika hufunule uPepo ne ngovo,
5 that your faith would not rest on human wisdom, but on the power of God.
aje olweteho lwenyu lusabhe katika injele yabhanadamu, ila katika engovo ya Ngolobhe.
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 )
Eshi tihuyiyanga injele mumiongoni mwa bhantu abhagosi, lakini saga hunjele yense ene au yabhatabhala bhinyakati ezi, ambawo bhashila. (aiōn )
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 )
Badala yakwe, tihuyiyanga injele ya Ngolobhe katika ilyoli lilifisishe, injele yifisishe ambayo Ungolobhe ayisaluye kabla yinyakati ziutuntumu wetu. (aiōn )
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 )
Nomo wowonti wa bhatabhala bhinyakati ezi wayemenye injele ene, nkabhayimenye katika inyakati zila, andisaga bhanyenvega uGosi wituntumu. (aiōn )
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.
Ishi hansi shayasimbwilwe, amambo ambayo nalimo iliso lililolile, nalimo ikuta lyalyahevwezye ensewo sagazyasebhele, amambo ambayo Ongolobhe aga andayile kwa ajili yabhala bhagene umwene.”
10 But to us God revealed it through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
Ege mambo gagali Ongolobhe agakwinkuye humwetu ashilile uMpepo, afatanaje uMpepo achunguzya shila hantu hata amambo gamuhati yakwe.
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.
Afwatanaje wenu amenye ensewo zyamntu, isipokuwa roho ya mtu ndani yake? Hivyo pia, hakuna mambo ya ndani ya Mungu, ila Mpepo wa Ngolobhe.
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.
Eshi sagataposheleye umoyo gwense, eshi uMpepo wafuma wha Ngolobhe, ili aje tiwezye amanye whiwaushe amambo gatapewilwe no Ngolobhe.
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.
Tiyanje amambo ega whimazu gagali njele, whamuntu sagawezya amanyizye, ila uMpepo awhutimanyizya. Umpepo ahugabadilinsa amazu gahumoyo hunjele yi shimoyo.
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.
Umuntu wasaga wishimoyo sagaposhela amambo gagali ga Mpepo wa Ngolobhe, afwatanaje ego giwalangani hukwakwe sagawezya hugamanye afwatanaje gamanyiha shimoyo.
15 But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.
Hola wishimoyo alonje amambo gonti. Ila alongwa na bhanje.
16 For, "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
“Yunanu awezya amanye ensewo zya Gosi, wawezya humanyizye?” Ila tilinensewo zya Kristi.
