1 Corinthians 2
1 For my own part, Brothers, when I came to you, it was with no display of eloquence or philosophy that I came to tell the hidden purpose of God;
Bakaulengwe ba ba rategang, erile fa ke tla kwa go lona ga ke a ka ka dirisa mafoko a boikgogomoso le megopolo e e nonofileng go lo bolelela molaetsa wa Modimo.
2 for I had determined that, while with you, I would know nothing but Jesus Christ — and him crucified!
Gonne ke ne ke ikaeletse gore ke tlaa bua kaga Jesu Keresete fela le loso lwa gagwe mo mokgorong.
3 Indeed, when I came among you, I was weak, and full of fears, and in great anxiety.
Ke tsile kwa go lona ke le bokoa, ke boifa ke roroma.
4 My Message and my Proclamation were not delivered in the persuasive language of philosophy, but were accompanied by the manifestation of spiritual power,
Mme thero ya me e ne e tlhamaletse, e sena puo e e tsietsang ya botlhale jwa setho, mme nonofo ya Mowa O O Boitshepo e ne e le mo mafokong a me, e supegetsa ba ba neng ba a utlwa gore molaetsa o ne o tswa kwa Modimong.
5 so that your faith should be based, not on the philosophy of man, but on the power of God.
Ke ne ke dira se ka gore ke ne ke batla gore tumelo ya lona e nitame mo Modimong, e seng mo megopolong e megolo ya batho.
6 Yet there is a philosophy that we teach to those whose faith is matured, but it is not the philosophy of to-day, nor that of the leaders of to-day — men whose downfall is at hand. (aiōn g165)
Le fa go ntse jalo fa ke na le Bakeresete ba ba nonofileng mo tumelong ke a tle ke bue mafoko a botlhale jo bogolo, mme e seng a mofuta o o tswang mono lefatsheng, le e seng ka mofuta wa batho ba lefatshe le, ba ba tlaa tlogang ba nyelela. (aiōn g165)
7 No, it is a divine philosophy that we teach, one concerned with the hidden purpose of God — that long-hidden philosophy which God, before time began, destined for our glory. (aiōn g165)
Mafoko a rona a botlhale ka gore a tswa mo Modimong, a re bolelela botlhale jwa leano la Modimo le le re tlisang mo dikgalalelong tsa Legodimo. Leano le le ne le fitlhegile mo lobakeng lwa pele, le fa le ne la dirwa go re solegela molemo pele ga tshimologo ya lefatshe. (aiōn g165)
8 This philosophy is not known to any of the leaders of to-day; for, had they known it, they would not have crucified our glorified Lord. (aiōn g165)
Mme batho ba bagolo ba lefatshe ga ba a ka ba le tlhaloganya; fa ba ne ba le tlhalogantse, ba ka bo ba sa bapola Morena wa kgalalelo. (aiōn g165)
9 It is what Scripture speaks of as — ‘What eye never saw, nor ear ever heard, what never entered the mind of man — even all that God has prepared for those who love him.’
Ke sone se Dikwalo di se rayang fa di re, ga go na motho ope yo o kileng a bona, a utlwa kgotsa a akanya tse dintle tse Modimo o di baakanyeditseng ba ba ratang Morena.
10 Yet to us God revealed it through his Spirit; for the Spirit fathoms all things, even the inmost depths of God’s being.
Mme re itse kaga dilo tse ka gore Modimo o rometse Mowa wa one go re di bolelela, mme Mowa wa one o a puruputsha ebile o re bontsha diphiri tse di kwa teng tsa Modimo.
11 For what man is there who knows what a man is, except the man’s own spirit within him? So, also, no one comprehends what God is, except the Spirit of God.
Ga go na ope yo o ka itseng se yo mongwe o se akanyang, kgotsa gore o ntse jang, fa e se ene motho yoo ka boene. Ebile ga go ope yo o ka itseng dikakanyo tsa Modimo fa e se Mowa wa Modimo ka bo-one.
12 And as for us, it is not the Spirit of the World that we have received, but the Spirit that comes from God, that we may realize the blessings given to us by him.
Modimo o re neile Mowa wa one (eseng mowa wa lefatshe) go re bolelela kaga dineo tse di ntle tsa tshegofatso tse Modimo o re di neileng.
13 And we speak of these gifts, not in language taught by human philosophy, but in language taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual things in spiritual words.
Mo go lo boleleleng kaga dineo tse, re dirisitse one tota mafoko a re neng re a newa ke Mowa O O Boitshepo go tlhalosa ditiro tsa Mowa O O Boitshepo.
14 The merely intellectual man rejects the teaching of the Spirit of God; for to him it is mere folly; he cannot grasp it, because it is to be understood only by spiritual insight.
Mme motho yo e seng Mokeresete ga a ka ke a tlhaloganya a bo a amogela megopolo e e tswang mo Modimong, e Mowa O O Boitshepo o re e rutang. E utlwala e le boeleele mo go ene, ka gore ke ba ba nang le Mowa O O Boitshepo fela ba ba ka tlhaloganyang gore Mowa O O Boitshepo o rayang. Ba bangwe ga ba ka ke ba tlhaloganya.
15 But the man with spiritual insight is able to understand everything, although he himself is understood by no one.
Mme motho wa semowa o tlhaloganya dilo tsotlhe, le tse di tshwenyang ebile di palela motho wa lefatshe, yo o se ka keng a mo tlhaloganya gotlhelele.
16 For ‘who has so comprehended the mind of the Lord as to be able to instruct him?’ We, however, have the very mind of Christ.
Go ka nna jang? Gonne ka boammaaruri ga a ise a ke a itse dikakanyo tsa Morena, kgotsa le fa e le go di buisana nae, kgotsa go tshikinya mabogo a Modimo ka thapelo. Mme go bonala go hakgamatsa, rona bakeresete mo go rona re na le bontlha bongwe jwa dikakanyo le mogopolo wa ga Keresete.
