Prima lettera ai Corinzi (1 كورنثوس) 2

SMITH VAN DYKE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 وانا لما أتيت اليكم ايها الاخوة أتيت ليس بسمو الكلام او الحكمة مناديا لكم بشهادة الله.	1 And so, brothers, when I came to you, announcing to you the testimony of Christ, I did not bring exalted words or lofty wisdom.
2 لاني لم أعزم ان اعرف شيئا بينكم الا يسوع المسيح واياه مصلوبا.	2 For I did not judge myself to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
3 وانا كنت عندكم في ضعف وخوف ورعدة كثيرة.	3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and with much trembling.
4 وكلامي وكرازتي لم يكونا بكلام الحكمة الانسانية المقنع بل ببرهان الروح والقوة	4 And my words and preaching were not the persuasive words of human wisdom, but were a manifestation of the Spirit and of virtue,
5 لكي لا يكون ايمانكم بحكمة الناس بل بقوة الله	5 so that your faith would not be based on the wisdom of men, but on the virtue of God.
6 لكننا نتكلم بحكمة بين الكاملين ولكن بحكمة ليست من هذا الدهر ولا من عظماء هذا الدهر الذين يبطلون.	6 Now, we do speak wisdom among the perfect, yet truly, this is not the wisdom of this age, nor that of the leaders of this age, which shall be reduced to nothing.
7 بل نتكلم بحكمة الله في سرّ. الحكمة المكتومة التي سبق الله فعينها قبل الدهور لمجدنا.	7 Instead, we speak of the wisdom of God in a mystery which has been hidden, which God predestined before this age for our glory,
8 التي لم يعلمها احد من عظماء هذا الدهر. لان لو عرفوا لما صلبوا رب المجد.	8 something that none of the leaders of this world have known. For if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.
9 بل كما هو مكتوب ما لم تر عين ولم تسمع اذن ولم يخطر على بال انسان ما اعده الله للذين يحبونه	9 But this is just as it has been written: “The eye has not seen, and the ear has not heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man, what things God has prepared for those who love him.”
10 فاعلنه الله لنا نحن بروحه. لان الروح يفحص كل شيء حتى اعماق الله.	10 But God has revealed these things to us through his Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
11 لان من من الناس يعرف امور الانسان الا روح الانسان الذي فيه. هكذا ايضا امور الله لا يعرفها احد الا روح الله.	11 And who can know the things that are of a man, except the spirit which is within that man? So also, no one knows the things which are of God, except the Spirit of God.
12 ونحن لم نأخذ روح العالم بل الروح الذي من الله لنعرف الاشياء الموهوبة لنا من الله	12 But we have not received the spirit of this world, but the Spirit who is of God, so that we may understand the things that have been given to us by God.
13 التي نتكلم بها ايضا لا باقوال تعلّمها حكمة انسانية بل بما يعلّمه الروح القدس قارنين الروحيات بالروحيات.	13 And we are also speaking of these things, not in the learned words of human wisdom, but in the doctrine of the Spirit, bringing spiritual things together with spiritual things.
14 ولكن الانسان الطبيعي لا يقبل ما لروح الله لانه عنده جهالة. ولا يقدر ان يعرفه لانه انما يحكم فيه روحيا.	14 But the animal nature of man does not perceive these things that are of the Spirit of God. For it is foolishness to him, and he is not able to understand it, because it must be examined spiritually.
15 واما الروحي فيحكم في كل شيء وهو لا يحكم فيه من احد.	15 But the spiritual nature of man judges all things, and he himself may be judged by no man.
16 لانه من عرف فكر الرب فيعلمه. واما نحن فلنا فكر المسيح	16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, so that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
