1 Korintofo 2
1 Anuanom, bere a mebaa mo nkyɛn bɛkaa Onyankopɔn ho ahintasɛm a ɛyɛ nokware kyerɛɛ mo no, manka asɛm a ɛkyere adwene anaa nyansa a ɛtra mo so.
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech, or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.
2 Meyɛɛ mʼadwene sɛ bere a me ne mo wɔ hɔ no, mɛma me werɛ afi biribiara gye Yesu Kristo nko; na ne titiriw no, ne wu wɔ asennua no so no.
For I determined not to know anything while with you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
3 Enti bere a mebaa mo hɔ no, na meyɛ mmerɛw a ehu ne ahopopo aka me.
And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling;
4 Na nkyerɛkyerɛ a mekyerɛkyerɛɛ no nso mannyina anyansasɛm ne nnipa adwene so, na mmom menam kasa pa so daa tumi a ɛwɔ Onyankopɔn Honhom Kronkron no mu no adi.
and my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power;
5 Enti mo gyidi nnyina onipa nyansa so, na mmom egyina Onyankopɔn tumi so.
that your faith might not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
6 Mekasa nyansa mu kyerɛ wɔn a wɔanyinyin wɔ Honhom mu. Nanso saa nyansa no nyɛ wiase nyansa anaa wiase yi mu tumi ahorow a wɔn tumi resa no. (aiōn g165)
But we do speak wisdom among the perfect; not, however, the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought; (aiōn g165)
7 Nyansasɛm a meka no yɛ Onyankopɔn nyansa a wɔde ahintaw nnipa. Ɛno na Onyankopɔn ayi ato hɔ ama yɛn dedaw sɛ yɛn anuonyam ahyɛde ansa na wɔrebɔ wiase. (aiōn g165)
but we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom, which God determined on before the world was, for our glory; (aiōn g165)
8 Aman sodifo biara nnim saa nyansa no. Sɛ wonim a anka wɔremmɔ Awurade a anuonyam ahyɛ no ma no asennua mu. (aiōn g165)
which none of the rulers of this world comprehended; for had they comprehended it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory; (aiōn g165)
9 Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Nea onipa biara anhu na wante da, nea onipa biara annwene ho sɛ ɛbɛba da no, ɛno na Onyankopɔn no ara asiesie ama wɔn a wɔdɔ no no.”
but, as it is written: “The things which eye hath not seen, and ear hath not heard, and which have not entered into the heart of man, the great things which God hath prepared for those that love him.”
10 Na yɛn na Onyankopɔn nam ne Honhom Kronkron no so ada nʼahintasɛm yi adi akyerɛ yɛn. Honhom no pɛɛpɛɛ biribiara mu kosi Onyankopɔn ahintasɛm a emu dɔ no so.
For God hath revealed them to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, even the depths of God.
11 Onipa de, ɔno ara ne honhom a ɛte ne mu no na enim ne ho nsɛm nyinaa; saa ara nso na Onyankopɔn Honhom no nko ara na enim Onyankopɔn ho nsɛm nyinaa.
For who among men knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of the man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no one but the Spirit of God.
12 Ɛnyɛ wiase yi mu honhom na yɛanya; Honhom Kronkron a Onyankopɔn somaa no no na yɛanya sɛnea ɛbɛma yɛahu nea Onyankopɔn de ama yɛn no nyinaa.
But we did not receive the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that have been given to us by the grace of God;
13 Enti ɛnyɛ nsɛm a nnipa de wɔn nyansa akyerɛ yɛn no na yɛka, na mmom nsɛm a Honhom no akyerɛ yɛn no na yɛnam Honhom no mu nokware reda saa honhom mu nsɛm yi adi akyerɛ wɔn a wɔwɔ Honhom no.
which things we also speak, not in words taught by man's wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, connecting what is spiritual l with what is spiritual.
14 Nanso obi a onni Honhom no rentumi nnya akyɛde a efi Onyankopɔn Honhom no mu. Ɔrente ase da biara da; ɔfa no sɛ nsɛm a aba nni mu, efisɛ wogyina Honhom no nko so na wobetumi anya ntease a ɛsɛ.
But the unspiritual man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot know them; because they are spiritually discerned.
15 Onipa a Honhom no te ne mu no tumi sese biribiara nanso obiara rentumi mmu no atɛn.
But he that is spiritual judgeth of all things, yet he himself is judged by no one.
16 Kyerɛwsɛm no ka se, “Hena na onim Awurade adwene? Hena na obetumi atu no fo?” Nanso yɛn de, yɛwɔ Kristo adwene no bi.
For “who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
