< Corinthios I 2 >

1 Et ego, cum venissem ad vos, fratres, veni non in sublimitate sermonis, aut sapientiæ, annuntians vobis testimonium Christi.
When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with superiority of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the mystery of God.
2 Non enim judicavi me scire aliquid inter vos, nisi Jesum Christum, et hunc crucifixum.
For I determined not to know anything among you, except Yeshua Meshikha, and him crucified.
3 Et ego in infirmitate, et timore, et tremore multo fui apud vos:
When I was with you, I was weak and afraid and I shook.
4 et sermo meus, et prædicatio mea non in persuasibilibus humanæ sapientiæ verbis, sed in ostensione spiritus et virtutis:
My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Rukha and of power,
5 ut fides vestra non sit in sapientia hominum, sed in virtute Dei.
that your faith would not rest on human wisdom, but on the power of God.
6 Sapientiam autem loquimur inter perfectos: sapientiam vero non hujus sæculi, neque principum hujus sæculi, qui destruuntur: (aiōn g165)
We speak wisdom, however, among those who are mature, but a wisdom not of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are passing away. (aiōn g165)
7 sed loquimur Dei sapientiam in mysterio, quæ abscondita est, quam prædestinavit Deus ante sæcula in gloriam nostram, (aiōn g165)
But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God determined in advance before the ages for our glory, (aiōn g165)
8 quam nemo principum hujus sæculi cognovit: si enim cognovissent, numquam Dominum gloriæ crucifixissent. (aiōn g165)
which none of the rulers of this age has understood. For had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)
9 Sed sicut scriptum est: Quod oculus non vidit, nec auris audivit, nec in cor hominis ascendit, quæ præparavit Deus iis qui diligunt illum:
No eye has seen, and no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined the things which God has prepared for those who love him.
10 nobis autem revelavit Deus per Spiritum suum: Spiritus enim omnia scrutatur, etiam profunda Dei.
But to us God revealed it through the Rukha. For the Rukha searches all things, even the deep things of God.
11 Quis enim hominum scit quæ sunt hominis, nisi spiritus hominis, qui in ipso est? ita et quæ Dei sunt, nemo cognovit, nisi Spiritus Dei.
For what person knows the things of a person except the spirit of the person that is in him? So also, no one knows the things of God except the Rukha of God.
12 Nos autem non spiritum hujus mundi accepimus, sed Spiritum qui ex Deo est, ut sciamus quæ a Deo donata sunt nobis:
But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the Rukha which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.
13 quæ et loquimur non in doctis humanæ sapientiæ verbis, sed in doctrina Spiritus, spiritualibus spiritualia comparantes.
And we speak of these things, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the Rukha, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.
14 Animalis autem homo non percipit ea quæ sunt Spiritus Dei: stultitia enim est illi, et non potest intelligere: quia spiritualiter examinatur.
Now the natural person does not receive the things of the Rukha of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 Spiritualis autem judicat omnia: et ipse a nemine judicatur.
But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.
16 Quis enim cognovit sensum Domini, qui instruat eum? nos autem sensum Christi habemus.
For, "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will instruct him?" But we have the mind of Meshikha.
