1 Bhakolinto 2

1 Bhakilishitu ajangunji, nne punaishe kunngwenunji kukunnungushiyanga, nangannungushayanga ya nng'iyo ga ntenga gwa a Nnungu, kwa talashiya ukoto wala kwa lunda lwa shigundu.

And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.

2 Punaliji kunngwenunji nashinkutumbilila ngunalunguye shindu shoshowe, ikabhe mwaamanyanje a Yeshu Kilishitu, bhakomelwe munshalabha.

For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

3 Punaliji kunngwenunji ngakweteje mashili, nguliungumila na lipamba lya kaje.

And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

4 Malobhe gangu na kulunguya kwangu kukaliji kwa lunda na tekeya, ikabhe kwa ilangulo na mashili gaka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.

And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:

5 Nashinkutenda genego nkupinga ngulupai jenunji jinatamile ga lunda luka mundu, ikabhe mmashili ga a Nnungu.

That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

6 Nkali nneyo, tunabheleketa kwa lunda kwa bhene bhaishimilikenje nngulupai bhala, ikabheje lwene lundalo nngabha lwa pa shilambolyo pano, wala nngabha lwa bhakulunhwanji bha pa shilambolyo bhalinginji munkumbi gwa bhaobhanga. (aiōn g165)

Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: (aiōn g165)

7 Lunda lutubheleketa lwa shinjubhi sha a Nnungu, ni lunda lwaishiwe, kuumila kupanganywa shilambolyo, kwa ligongo lya ukojelo gewtu. (aiōn g165)

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our glory: (aiōn g165)

8 Lwene lundalo bhatagwala bha pashilambolyo bhakakulumanyanga, pabha kaliji bhakalumanyinji, ngubhakaakomelenjeje munshalabha, Bhakulungwa bha Ukonjelo. (aiōn g165)

Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. (aiōn g165)

9 Ikabheje malinga shiijandikwe, “Indu ikanabhe bhoneka na mundu wala kwiipilikana, indu ikanabhe ganishiywa na mundu, genego a Nnungu ni gubhaabhishilenje bhandu bhakwaapinganga bhala.”

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

10 Genego gubhatulangwiye a Nnungu kwa Mbumu jwabho. Pabha Mbumu analoleya indu yowe nkali indu ya injubhi ya a Nnungu.

But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

11 Gani akwiimanya indu ili mmbumu juka mundu ikabhe mbumu juka mundu nnyene? Nneyo peyo indu ya a Nnungu jwakwa akwiimanya ikabhe Mbumu jwa a Nnungu.

For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

12 Ikabheje uwe twangaposhela mbumu jwa pashilambolyo, ikabhe Mbumu akopoka kwa a Nnungu nkupinga atukomboye kugamanya gowe gubhatulagushiye a Nnungu.

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

13 Bhai, uwe tunajiganya, nngabha kwa malobhe gutujigenywe na lunda lwa bhandunji, ikabhe kwa malobhe gutujigenywe naka Mbumu, tulijiganya indu ya muntima kwa bhakwetenje jwene Mbumujo.

Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

14 Mundu jwa lunda lwa shibhelekwe, akakwiiposhela indu ika Mbumu jwa a Nnungu. Kuka jwenejo inabhoneka mbuti ungumba wala akakwiimanya, pabha pugamanyika kwa jangutilwa naka Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.

But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

15 Ikabheje mundu akwete jwene Mbumujo anakombola kuukumula gowe, na nnyene akaukumulwa naka mundu juna.

But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

16 Majandiko gakuti, “Gani akombola kulumanya lunda lwa Bhakulungwa? Gani shaabhelekete nabho?” Ikabheje uwe tushikola lunda lwa a Kilishitu.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
