< 1 Corinthians 2 >

1 And I, brethren, when I came unto you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the mystery of God.
Nígbà tí èmí tọ̀ yín wá, ẹ̀yin ará, kì í ṣe nípa ọ̀rọ̀ gíga àti ọgbọ́n gíga ni mo fi bá yín sọ̀rọ̀, nígbà tí èmi ń sọ̀rọ̀ ohun ìjìnlẹ̀ Ọlọ́run fún un yín.
2 For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
Èmi ti pinnu láti má mọ ohunkóhun nígbà ti mo wà láàrín yín bí kò ṣe Jesu Kristi, ẹni tí a kàn mọ́ àgbélébùú.
3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
Èmi sì tọ̀ yín wá ni àìlera, àti ní ẹ̀rù, àti ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìwárìrì.
4 And my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
Ìwàásù mi àti ẹ̀kọ́ mi, kì í ṣe nípa ọgbọ́n ènìyàn àti ọ̀rọ̀ tí a fi ń yí ènìyàn lọ́kàn padà, bí kò ṣe nípa ìfihàn agbára Ẹ̀mí.
5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Kí ìgbàgbọ́ yín kí ó má ṣe dúró lórí ọgbọ́n ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n kí ó dúró lórí agbára Ọlọ́run.
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, which are coming to nought: (aiōn g165)
Ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń sọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n láàrín àwọn tí a pè, ṣùgbọ́n kì í ṣe ọgbọ́n ti ayé yìí tàbí ti àwọn olórí ayé yìí, èyí tí yóò di asán. (aiōn g165)
7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, [even] the [wisdom] that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: (aiōn g165)
Bẹ́ẹ̀ kọ́, àwa ń sọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n ti Ọlọ́run tó fi ara sin, ọgbọ́n tí ó ti fi ara pamọ́, èyí tí Ọlọ́run ti lànà sílẹ̀ ṣáájú ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ayé fún ògo wa. (aiōn g165)
8 which none of the rulers of this world knoweth: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory: (aiōn g165)
Èyí ti ẹnikẹ́ni nínú àwọn aláṣẹ ayé yìí kò mọ̀. Ìbá ṣe pé wọ́n mọ̀ ọ́n, wọn kì bá tún kan Olúwa ògo mọ́ àgbélébùú. (aiōn g165)
9 but as it is written, Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not, And [which] entered not into the heart of man, Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ pé: “Ojú kò tí ì rí, etí kò tí í gbọ́, kò sì ọkàn ènìyàn tí ó tí í mọ̀ ohun tí Ọlọ́run tí pèsè sílẹ̀ fún àwọn tí o fẹ́ ẹ.”
10 But unto us God revealed [them] through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ti fi í hàn fún wa nípasẹ̀ Ẹ̀mí rẹ̀. Ẹ̀mí á máa wádìí ohun gbogbo, kódà àwọn àṣírí Ọlọ́run tó jinlẹ̀ jùlọ.
11 For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God.
Ta ni nínú ènìyàn tí ó mọ èrò ọkàn ènìyàn kan, bí kò ṣe ẹ̀mí ènìyàn tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀? Bákan náà, kò sí ẹni ti ó mọ àwọn èrò Ọlọ́run, bí kò ṣe Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run fúnra rẹ̀.
12 But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.
Àwa kò gbà ẹ̀mí ti ayé yìí, bí kò ṣe Ẹ̀mí ẹni tí ó ti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run wa, kí a lè ní òye ohun tí Ọlọ́run fi fún wa lọ́fẹ̀ẹ́.
13 Which things also we speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
Èyí ni àwa ń wí, kì í ṣe èyí tí a ń kọ nípa ọ̀rọ̀ ọgbọ́n ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n èyí tí Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ fi ń kọ ènìyàn, èyí tí a ń fi ohun Ẹ̀mí wé ohun Ẹ̀mí.
14 Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged.
Ṣùgbọ́n ènìyàn nípa ti ara kò gba ohun ti Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run wọ̀n-ọn-nì, nítorí pé wèrè ni wọ́n jásí fún un, òun kò sì le mọ̀ wọ́n, nítorí nípa tí Ẹ̀mí ní a fi ń wádìí wọn.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, and he himself is judged of no man.
Ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó wà nípa ti ẹ̀mí ń wádìí ohun gbogbo, ṣùgbọ́n kò sí ẹnikẹ́ni tí í wádìí rẹ̀.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
“Nítorí ta ni ó mọ ọkàn Olúwa, ti yóò fi máa kọ́ Ọ?” Ṣùgbọ́n àwa ní inú Kristi.
