1 Corinthians 2
1 My fellow believers, when I came to you, I proclaimed to you the message that God had revealed to me. But I did not proclaim it using eloquent words that would make people think highly of me, nor did I argue in a way that unbelievers would think was very wise.
Og jeg, Brødre! da jeg kom til eder, kom jeg ikke og forkyndte eder Gud Vidnesbyrd med Stormægtighed i Tale eller i Visdom;
2 I did that because I decided that I would speak only about Jesus Christ. Specifically, I told you [what he accomplished for us when] he was killed by being nailed {[when they] killed him by nailing him} to a cross.
thi jeg agtede ikke at vide noget iblandt eder uden Jesus Kristus og ham korsfæstet;
3 Furthermore, when I was with you, I felt that I was not adequate [to do what Christ wanted me to do]. I was afraid [that I would not be able to do it], and because of that I was trembling very much.
og jeg færdedes hos eder i Svaghed og i Frygt og megen Bæven,
4 When I taught you and preached to you, I did not speak words that [unbelievers would consider] [IRO] wise in order to convince them that my message was true. Instead, [God’s] Spirit showed that it was true by [enabling me to] powerfully [perform miracles].
og min Tale og min Prædiken var ikke med Visdoms overtalende Ord, men med Ånds og Krafts Bevisning,
5 [I taught and preached that way] in order that you might believe [my message], not because you heard words that people [considered to be] [IRO] wise, but [because you recognized] God’s power.
for at eders Tro ikke skulde bero på Menneskers Visdom, men på Guds Kraft.
6 I do teach a message that people who are [spiritually] mature [consider to] be wise. But I do not teach a message that unbelievers [consider to be] wise. I also do not teach a message that unbelieving rulers in the world consider to be wise. [What they think about it does not matter], because [some day] (they will lose their power/not be ruling any more). (aiōn g165)
Dog, Visdom tale vi iblandt de fuldkomne, men en Visdom, der ikke stammer fra denne Verden, ikke heller fra denne Verdens Herskere, som blive til intet; (aiōn g165)
7 Instead, I teach about what God planned wisely [long ago]. It is something that people did not know about previously because [God] did not reveal it previously. But God determined before he created the world that he would greatly benefit us by his wise plan. (aiōn g165)
men vi tale Visdom fra Gud, den hemmelige, den, som var skjult, som Gud før Verdens Begyndelse forudbestemte til vor Herlighed, (aiōn g165)
8 None of those who rule this world knew that wise plan. If they had known it, they would not have nailed our wonderful Lord to the cross. (aiōn g165)
hvilken ingen af denne Verdens Herskere har erkendt; thi; havde de erkendt den, havde de ikke korsfæstet Herlighedens Herre; (aiōn g165)
9 But [we believers need to remember these words that a prophet] wrote [in the Scriptures]: Things that no one has ever seen, things that no one ever heard, things that no one ever thought could happen, those are the things that God has prepared for those who love him.
men, som der er skrevet: "Hvad intet Øje har set, og intet Øre har hørt, og ikke er opkommet i noget Menneskes Hjerte, hvad Gud har beredt dem, som elske ham."
10 God has caused his Spirit to reveal those things to us [(inc)] believers. His Spirit can do that because he knows thoroughly the meaning of all things. He even knows the things about God that are very difficult to understand.
Men os åbenbarede Gud det ved Ånden; thi Ånden ransager alle Ting, også Guds Dybder.
11 Only a person himself (OR, a person’s spirit) knows what he is thinking. Similarly, only God’s Spirit knows what God is thinking.
Thi hvilket Menneske ved, hvad der er i Mennesket, uden Menneskets Ånd, som er i ham? Således har heller ingen erkendt, hvad der er i Gud, uden Guds Ånd.
12 It was not the ideas that unbelievers teach that we accepted. Instead, it was the Spirit who came from God that we received, in order that we might know the things that God has freely done for us.
Men vi have ikke fået Verdens Ånd, men Ånden fra Gud, for at vi kunne vide, hvad der er os skænket af Gud;
13 Those are the things that I tell you about. As I do that, I do not tell you things that someone [whom others thought] was [IRO] wise taught me. Instead, I tell you truths that [God’s] Spirit taught [me], and I explain those spiritual truths to people whose thinking is guided by God’s Spirit (OR, I teach spiritual [truths to] spiritual [people]).
og dette tale vi også, ikke med Ord, lærte af menneskelig Visdom, men med Ord, lærte af Ånden, idet vi tolke åndelige Ting med åndelige Ord.
14 Those who are unbelievers reject the truths that [God’s] Spirit teaches us [(inc)], because they [consider those truths to be] foolish. They cannot understand them, because it is God’s Spirit who enables us to evaluate those truths correctly, [and those people do not have God’s Spirit].
Men det sjælelige Menneske tager ikke imod de Ting, som høre Guds Ånd til; thi de ere ham en Dårskab, og han kan ikke erkende dem, thi de bedømmes åndeligt.
15 We who have God’s Spirit can judge correctly the [value of] all truths [that the Spirit reveals], but [unbelievers] cannot evaluate us correctly.
Men den åndelige bedømmer alle Ting, selv derimod bedømmes han af ingen.
16 As [one of our prophets wrote: ] No human [RHQ] has known what the Lord is thinking. No human [RHQ] is able to instruct him. But we believers are able to think about things [MTY] in the way that Christ thinks about them.
Thi hvem har kendt Herrens Sind, så han skulde kunne undervise ham? Men vi have Kristi Sind.
