< 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.
In jaz, bratje, ko sem prišel k vam, razglašajoč Božje pričevanje, nisem prišel z odličnostjo govora ali z modrostjo.
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.
Kajti odločil sem ne vedeti med vami nobene stvari, razen Jezusa Kristusa in njega križanega.
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.
In z vami sem bil v slabosti in v strahu ter v mnogem trepetanju.
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].
In moj govor in moje oznanjevanje nista bila s prepričevalnimi besedami človeške modrosti, temveč v prikazu Duha in moči,
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.
da vaša vera ne bi stala na človeški modrosti, temveč na Božji moči.
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)
Vendar govorimo modrost med temi, ki so popolni; vendar ne modrosti tega sveta niti princev tega sveta, ki se izjalovi; (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)
temveč govorimo Božjo modrost v skrivnosti, celó prikrito modrost, ki jo je Bog pred svetom odredil v našo slavo; (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)
ki je nobeden izmed princev tega sveta ni spoznal. Kajti če bi jo spoznali, ne bi križali Gospoda slave. (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.
Toda kakor je pisano: ›Oko ni videlo niti uho slišalo niti ni vstopilo v človekovo srce, stvari, ki jih je Bog pripravil za tiste, ki ga ljubijo.‹
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.
Toda Bog nam jih je razodel po svojem Duhu, kajti Duh preiskuje vse stvari, da, globoke Božje stvari.
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.
Kajti kateri človek ve stvari o človeku razen človekovega duha, ki je v njem? Točno tako Božje stvari ne pozna noben človek, razen Božjega Duha.
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.
Torej nismo prejeli duha sveta, temveč duha, ki je od Boga; da bi lahko spoznali stvari, ki so nam velikodušno dane od Boga.
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]).
O katerih stvareh tudi govorimo, ne z besedami, ki jih uči človeška modrost, temveč ki jih uči Sveti Duh; [in] duhovne stvari primerjamo z duhovnimi.
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].
Toda naraven človek ne sprejema stvari od Božjega Duha, kajti te so mu nespametnost; niti jih ne more razpoznati, ker se spoznavajo duhovno.
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.
Toda kdor je duhoven, presoja vse stvari, čeprav on sam ni sojen od nobenega človeka.
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.
Kajti kdo je spoznal Gospodov um, da bi ga lahko poučil? Toda mi imamo Kristusov um.
