1When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.
1Nawkamyanawk, Kahoih Sithaw tamthanglok taphong hanah nangcae khae kang zoh naah, lokthuih kophaih maw, to tih ai boeh loe palunghahaih hoiah maw kang zo ai.
2For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
2Jesu Kri hoi Anih takhinghaih lok khue ai ah loe, nangcae khae hoi panoek koehhaih tidoeh ka tawn ai.
3I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling.
3Thazokhaih, zithaih hoi paroeai tasoehhaih hoiah ni nangcae khaeah ka oh.
4My message and my preaching were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,
4Lok ka thuih moe, tamthanglok ka taphong naah, kami palunghahaih hoiah zoekhaih lok to ka thui ai, toe thacak Muithla amtuenghaih hoiah ni lok to ka thuih:
5so that your faith would not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.
5na tang o haih loe kami palunghahaih nuiah amha han om ai, Sithaw thacakhaih nuiah ni amha han oh.
6Among the mature, however, we speak a message of wisdom—but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.
6Palunghahaih lok to tanghaih bangah akoep kaminawk khaeah a thuih o: toe tiah doeh kangcoeng ai, hae long palunghahaih lok hoi hae long ukkungnawk ih palunghahaih lok to a thui o ai:
7No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began.
7toe lensawkhaih ah a oh o hanah, long om ai naah Sithaw mah paek ih panoek karai palunghahaih lok, kathuk Sithaw palunghahaih lok to ni a thuih o:
8None of the rulers of this age understood it. For if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
8to kathuk palunghahaih loe hae long nui ukkungnawk mah panoek o ai: nihcae mah panoek o nahaeloe, lensawkhaih Angraeng to takhing o mak ai.
9Rather, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no heart has imagined, what God has prepared for those who love Him.”
9Sithaw mah a palung ih kaminawk hanah sak pae ih hmuennawk loe, mik hoiah hnu ai, naa hoiah thai ai, kami ih palung thungah doeh akun ai, tiah tarik ih oh.
10But God has revealed it to us by the Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
10Toe Sithaw mah to hmuennawk to Angmah ih Muithla rang hoiah aicae khaeah amtuengsak boeh: Muithla loe hmuennawk boih to pakrong, ue, kathuk Sithaw ih hmuennawk doeh pakrong.
11For who among men knows the thoughts of man except his own spirit within him? So too, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
11Kami takoh thungah kaom hmuennawk loe angmah ih palung thungah kaom palung khue mah ai ah loe mi mah maw panoek thai tih? To baktih toengah Sithaw ih hmuennawk doeh Sithaw ih Muithla mah ai ah loe mi mah doeh panoek thai ai.
12We have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
12Sithaw mah aicae khaeah azom ah paek ih hmuennawk to a panoek o thai hanah, long muithla na ai ah, Sithaw ih Muithla to vaihi azom ah a hnuk o boeh.
13And this is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.
13A thuih o ih hmuennawk doeh, kami palunghahaih mah patuk ih loknawk hoiah a thui o ai, Kacai Muithla mah patuk ih lok baktiah ni a thuih o; Muithla ih hmuennawk to Muithla lok hoiah a thuih o.
14The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
14Toe taksa ah kaom kami mah loe Sithaw Muithla ih hmuennawk to talawk thai ai: to hmuennawk loe anih han amthuhaih ah ni oh: Muithla bang panoek thaihaih hmuennawk ah oh pongah, anih mah panoek thai ai.
15The spiritual man judges all things, but he himself is not subject to anyone’s judgment.
15Toe Muithla kami loe to hmuennawk boih pathlaeng moe panoek thaih, toe anih loe mi mah doeh panoek thai ai.
16“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
16Anih patuk thai hanah, Angraeng poekhaih panoek thaih mi maw kaom? Toe aicae loe Kri poekhaih to a tawnh o.
