1 Va Korinte 2
1 Linu, hani za kwenu, vakwangu, Kana na keza ni bulotu bukando vwa ziwambo nanta vwa vutali sina ani wamba vuniti vu liungwile vu amana ni Ireeza.
When I came to you, brothers, I didn’t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
2 Kokuti ni va liketeli kuse ziva chimwi hani vena mukati kenu kunde a Jesu Kreste ya va hanzikwa ha chi fapano.
For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
3 Mini vena nanwe muvu fokoli, ni mulyowa ni ku cha cha ahulu.
I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
4 Imi mwi ñusa lyangu ni muku wamba kwangu vwangu kana kuvena za kumi koza mu manzwi a vutali.
My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
5 Kokuti itumelo enu kazi ivi ya vutali vwa vantu, kono che ziho ze Ireeza.
that your faith wouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6 Hanu, tu wamba cha vutali mukiti kava kulite, kono, isiñi cho vutali vwe kanda, kapa va vusi ve inu' nako, vakwe vafwe. (aiōn g165)
We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown, yet a wisdom not of this world nor of the rulers of this world who are coming to nothing. (aiōn g165)
7 Kono, tuwamba vatali vwa Ireeza mwi niti ili wungwile. Vatali vu unguli Ireeza nako ni seni kuva kwateni kuti iswe tube ni kanya. (aiōn g165)
But we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory, (aiōn g165)
8 Ka kwina ku va yendisi ve yi nako vave zi u vu vutali, kambe vava vu zuwisisi ine nako, niva sana vava hanziki Simwine we kanya. (aiōn g165)
which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn’t have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
9 Kono kuva ñoletwe, “zintu zisana ziva vav onwa, zi sina zi va zuiwa matwi, ni zi sana zi vezi mu mihupulo. Zintu Ireeza zava lukiseze ava va musaka.”
But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”
10 Izi nji zintu za va tutondezi Ireeza cha luhuho. Kokuti luhuho lusa kisisa zintu zonse, nanga nezo zintu zi li ungwile ze Ireeza.
But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
11 Njeni wizi mihupulo ya muntu, kunde ya luhuho lwa muntu lwina mwali? Vulyo hape, kawina wizi zintu ze Ireeza zi li u ngwile kunde a luhuho lwe Ireeza.
For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except God’s Spirit.
12 Kono kana tuva tumbuli luhuho lwe kwanda, kono luhuho luzwa kwa Ireeza. Kokuti twizive zintu ziva hewa fela kwetu cha Ireeza.
But we received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.
13 Tu wamba zhizi zintu mu mazwi a vutali uvo muntu kaoli ku ruta, kono, luhuho lutu ruta. Luhuho lutoloka mazwi a luhuho ni vutali vwa luhuho.
We also speak these things, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
14 Muntu ya sena luhuho lwe Ireeza, kaoli kutambula zintu ze luhuho lwe Ireeza, kokuti kwali za vuholo. Kaoli kwizi ziva kakuli zi patululwa vulyo cha luhuho lujolola lwe Ireeza.
Now the natural man doesn’t receive the things of God’s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him; and he can’t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 Wina luhuho lujolula u atula zintu zonse, kono kena inswanelo yaku atula va mwi.
But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is to be judged by no one.
16 Njeni yo ula kwiza muhupulo we Ireeza, yo wola ku mulaya. Kono, twina muhupulo wa Kreste.
“For who has known the mind of the Lord that he should instruct him?” But we have Christ’s mind.
