1 Qorontos 2

1 Yaa obboloota, ani yeroon gara keessan dhufetti, afaan toluun yookaan ogummaa guddaadhaan dhuga baʼumsa waaʼee Waaqaa lallabaa hin dhufne.

When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with superiority of speech or wisdom, proclaiming to you the mystery of God.

2 Ani yeroon isin bira turetti Yesuus Kiristoos isa fannifame sana malee akka waan tokko illee hin beekne murteesseen tureetii.

For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

3 Ani dadhabbiin, sodaa fi hollannaa guddaadhaan gara keessan dhufe.

When I was with you, I was weak and afraid and I shook.

4 Ergaan koo fi lallabni koo Hafuuraa fi humna argisiisuudhaan malee dubbii ogummaa fi sossobbii of keessaa qabuun hin turre;

My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

5 kunis akka amantiin keessan humna Waaqaa irratti malee ogummaa namaa irratti hin hundeeffamneef.

that your faith would not rest on human wisdom, but on the power of God.

6 Haa taʼuu malee nu warra bilchaatan gidduutti ogummaa dubbanna; garuu ogummaa addunyaa kanaa yookaan ogummaa bulchitoota addunyaa kanaa kanneen baduuf jiranii miti. (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 Garuu nu ogummaa Waaqaa, ogummaa dhokfamee ture, isa Waaqni uumama addunyaatiin dura ulfina keenyaaf jedhee murteesse sanaa icciitiidhaan dubbanna. (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 Bulchitoota addunyaa kanaa keessaa tokko iyyuu ogummaa kana hin hubanne; isaan utuu hubatanii jiraatanii silaa Gooftaa ulfinaa hin fannisan tureetii. (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 Taʼu iyyuu akkuma, “Waan Waaqni warra isa jaallataniif qopheesse iji hin argine, gurri hin dhageenye, garaa namaattis hin yaadamne” jedhamee barreeffame sana,

But as it is written, 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 Waaqni garuu Hafuura isaatiin waan kana nutti mulʼiseera. Hafuurri wantoota hunda, wantoota Waaqaa kanneen gad fagoo taʼan illee ni qora.

But to us God revealed it through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

11 Hafuura isa keessa jiru malee yaada nama tokkoo eenyutu beeka? Akkasuma immoo Hafuura Waaqaa malee kan yaada Waaqaa beeku tokko iyyuu hin jiru.

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 Spirit of God.

12 Nu akka waan Waaqni toluma nuu kenne hubannuuf Hafuura Waaqa irraa dhufe arganne malee hafuura addunyaa hin arganne.

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 Wanni nu dubbannus kana; nu dubbii Hafuurri nu barsiisuun malee dubbii ogummaan namaa barsiisuun hin dubbannu; dhugaa Hafuuraas dubbii Hafuuraatiin ibsina.

And we speak of these things, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things.

14 Namni foonii wantoota Hafuura Waaqaa hin fudhatu; kun isaaf gowwummaadhaatii; wantoonni Hafuuraa waan Hafuuraan qoramaniif inni hubachuu hin dandaʼu.

Now the natural person does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

15 Namni Hafuuraa waan hundumaa ni qora; ofii isaatii garuu eenyuun iyyuu hin qoramu.

But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.

16 “Akka isa barsiisuuf, eenyutu yaada garaa Gooftaa beeke?” Nu garuu yaada garaa Kiristoos qabna.

For, "Who has known the mind of the Lord? Who will instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
