¹Mange, phrale, kana gelem tumende, na bare divanosa vai gojasa, avilem te phenav tumenge pa Del.

¹And I, having come unto you, brethren, came — not in superiority of discourse or wisdom — declaring to you the testimony of God,

²Te nas ma gindo te zhanav mashkar tumende aver diela, ferdi O Jesus Kristo, ai lesko merimos po trushul.

²for I decided not to know any thing among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified;

³Me korkorho simas tumende slabo, ai daras, ai izdramasa.

³and I, in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling, was with you;

⁴Ai murhi vorba ai murho divano nas bare vorbi kai parhuven la gojasa, numa sas dino ande putiera le Swuntsone Duxoski.

⁴and my word and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power —

⁵Kashte tumaro pachamos te na avel kerdo pe goji le manushenge, numa ande putiera le Devleski.

⁵that your faith may not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

⁶Numa iek goji si kai phenas mashkar le shave le Devleske kai barile ando Del, kadala zhanglimos nai katar e lumia, vai katar le bare kai poronchin adies. Won meren ai vi lengo zhanglimos merel lensa.

⁶And wisdom we speak among the perfect, and wisdom not of this age, nor of the rulers of this age — of those becoming useless,

⁷Ame phenas e goji le Devleski, shodo ai garadi, kai O Del mai anglal sar le bersh shinadisas pe amaro barimos.

⁷but we speak the hidden wisdom of God in a secret, that God foreordained before the ages to our glory,

⁸Goji kai chi iek baro anda kadala bersh chi zhanglia, ke te zhanglino la nashti karfon le Devles le bares.

⁸which no one of the rulers of this age did know, for if they had known, the Lord of the glory they would not have crucified;

⁹Numa sar si ramome, kai e iakh chi dikhlia, kai o khan chi ashundia, ai kai chi avile ando ilo le manushesko, dieli kai O Del lashardia kodolenge kai si lenge drago.

⁹but, according as it hath been written, `What eye did not see, and ear did not hear, and upon the heart of man came not up, what God did prepare for those loving Him —`

¹⁰O Del sikadia lenge pa Duxo; ke o Duxo zumavel swako fielo vi o garavimos le Devleske.

¹⁰but to us did God reveal [them] through His Spirit, for the Spirit all things doth search, even the depths of God,

¹¹Savo andal manush chaches zhanen le dieli le manusheske, te na avela o Duxo le Manushesko kai san ande leste? Saikfielo khonik chi zhanel le dieli le Devleske, de ferdi O Duxo le Devlesko.

¹¹for who of men hath known the things of the man, except the spirit of the man that [is] in him? so also the things of God no one hath known, except the Spirit of God.

¹²Akana chi liam o duxo la lumiako, numa o Duxo kai avel katar O Del; kashte te zhanas le dieli kadia sas O Del ande pesko mishtimos.

¹²And we the spirit of the world did not receive, but the Spirit that [is] of God, that we may know the things conferred by God on us,

¹³Ai ame das duma, na divanonsa kai sicharel e goji la manushenge, numa kodola sas kai sicharel O Swunto Duxo; phenas divano duxosko pel dieluria le duxoske.

¹³which things also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Holy Spirit, with spiritual things spiritual things comparing,

¹⁴Numa o manush zhigania (manush kai chi pachalpa ando Del), chi lel le dieli anda Duxo le Devlesko; ke leske si dilimos, ai nashte zhanel le, ke ferdi Duxosa sai haliarel.

¹⁴and the natural man doth not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for to him they are foolishness, and he is not able to know [them], because spiritually they are discerned;

¹⁵O manush duxosko aver fielo kerel kris pe sa le dieli, ai pe leste korkorho chi kerel kris khonik.

¹⁵and he who is spiritual, doth discern indeed all things, and he himself is by no one discerned;

¹⁶Ke kon zhanelas o gindo le Devlesko, te sicharel les? Numa si ame o gindo le Kristosko.

¹⁶for who did know the mind of the Lord that he shall instruct Him? and we — we have the mind of Christ.
