1 Corinthians 2
1 And as for myself, brethren, when I came to you, it was not with surpassing power of eloquence or earthly wisdom that I came, announcing to you that which God had commanded me to bear witness to.
Achalongo achinjangu, uneji panaiche kukwenu kukunnalichila ngani ja ntemela wa Akunnungu, nganimecheta maloŵe ga kunonopa namose lunda lwa chiundu.
2 For I determined to be utterly ignorant, when among you, of everything except of Jesus Christ, and of Him as having been crucified.
Pakuŵa panaliji kukwenu nawamwiwe ninamanyilile chindu chachili chose nambo kwamanyilila Che Yesu Kilisito pe, ajula juŵaŵambikwe pa nsalaba.
3 And so far as I myself was concerned, I came to you in conscious feebleness and in fear and in deep anxiety.
Panaiche kukwenu naliji jwakulepetala, ni natetemele kwa lipamba.
4 And my language and the Message that I proclaimed were not adorned with persuasive words of earthly wisdom, but depended upon truths which the Spirit taught and mightily carried home;
Majiganyo gangu ni kulalichila kwangu nganikuŵa kwa lunda lwa kwanyenga ŵandu, nambo yaliji kwa machili ga Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
5 so that your trust might rest not on the wisdom of man but on the power of God.
Natesile yele kuti chikulupi chenu chikakulupilila lunda lwa ŵandu, nambo chikulupililo cha machili ga Akunnungu.
6 Yet when we are among mature believers we do speak words of wisdom; a wisdom not belonging, however, to the present age nor to the leaders of the present age who are soon to pass away. (aiōn g165)
Tukulalichila utenga wa lunda kwa aŵala ŵakusile mu chikulupi nambo ngaŵa lunda lwa chilambo chino, namose ngaŵa lunda lwa aŵala achakulu ŵa chilambo chi ŵaali mumpingo wakupotela. (aiōn g165)
7 But in dealing with truths hitherto kept secret we speak of God's wisdom--that hidden wisdom which, before the world began, God pre-destined, so that it should result in glory to us; (aiōn g165)
Tukunlalichila lunda lwa Akunnungu lwalusisiche, alula lunda luŵalusagwile Akunnungu kwaligongo lya kulumbikana mu ukulu wao chikanaŵe gumbikwa chilambo. (aiōn g165)
8 a wisdom which not one of the leaders of the present age possesses, for if they had possessed it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
Nganijupagwa namose jwankulu jumo mwa ŵakutawala chilambo chi jwalumanyilile lunda lu. Akalumanyilile ngakammambe pa nsalaba Ambuje ŵa ukulu. (aiōn g165)
9 But--to use the words of Scripture--we speak of things which eye has not seen nor ear heard, and which have never entered the heart of man: all that God has in readiness for them that love Him.
Nambo mpela itite pakulembekwa Mmalembelo Gamaswela, “Indu yanganiiwoneche atamuno kupikanika indu yanti ngapagwa mundu jwawayiye kuganisya yele ni indu iŵaŵichile chile Akunnungu aŵala ŵakwanonyela.”
10 For us, however, God has drawn aside the veil through the teaching of the Spirit; for the Spirit searches everything, including the depths of the divine nature.
Nambo Akunnungu atuunukulile uweji yantemela yakwe kwalitala lya Mbumu jwakwe. Pakuŵa Mbumu jo akulolesyalolesya kila chindu natamuno indu yantemela yaikwagamba Akunnungu.
11 For, among human beings, who knows a man's inner thoughts except the man's own spirit within him? In the same way, also, only God's Spirit is acquainted with God's inner thoughts.
Ngapagwa mundu jwakwimanyilila nganisyo sya mundu ikaŵe mundu nsyenepe. Iyoyo ni indu ya Akunnungu ngapagwa jwakwimanyilila ikaŵe Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
12 But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which comes forth from God, that we may know the blessings that have been so freely given to us by God.
Uwe nganitupochela mbumu jwa pachilambo pano, nambo twampochele Mbumu jwatyochele kwa Akunnungu, kuti tumanyilile indu yose yatupele Akunnungu.
13 Of these we speak--not in language which man's wisdom teaches us, but in that which the Spirit teaches--adapting, as we do, spiritual words to spiritual truths.
Kwapele ngatukusala maloŵe ga kwa lunda lwalukujiganyikwa ni ŵandu nambo tukusala maloŵe ga kwa lunda lwalukujiganyikwa ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu. Tukutagula indu ya Mbumu jwa usyene kwa aŵala ŵaali ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
14 The unspiritual man rejects the things of the Spirit of God, and cannot attain to the knowledge of them, because they are spiritually judged.
Nambo mundu jwanganakola Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ngakukombola kuipochela indu yaikutyochela kwa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu. Pakuŵa kukwakwe akuiwona ili uloŵelo ni ngakukombola kuimanyilila pakuŵa ikumanyika kwa ukamusyo wa Mbumu jwa Akunnungu.
15 But the spiritual man judges of everything, although he is himself judged by no one.
Mundu jwali ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu akukombola kuipima indu yose nambo ngapagwa mundu jwakukombola kunlamula.
16 For who has penetrated the mind of the Lord, and will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.
Mpela itite pakulembekwa Mmalembelo Gamaswela “Nduni jwaaumanyi umanyilisi wa Ambuje? Nduni jwakukombola kwajiganya?” Nambo uweji tukwete umanyilisi wa Kilisito.
