1And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 6Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: 7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 10But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. 13Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 16For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

Amagezi ga Katonda

“Eriiso bye litalabangako,
n’okutu bye kutawulirangako,
n’omutima gw’omuntu kye gutalowoozangako
Katonda bye yategekera abo abamwagala.”
102:10 a Mat 13:11; Bef 3:3, 5 b Yk 14:26Naye ffe Katonda yabitubikkulira mu Mwoyo, kubanga Omwoyo anoonyereza ebintu byonna, n’eby’omunda ennyo ebya Katonda. 112:11 a Yer 17:9 b Nge 20:27Kubanga muntu ki ategeera eby’omuntu omulala okuggyako omwoyo w’omuntu oyo ali mu ffe? Noolwekyo n’ebintu bya Katonda tewali abimanyi okuggyako Omwoyo wa Katonda. 122:12 a Bar 8:15 b 1Ko 1:20, 27Era kaakano ffe tetwafuna mwoyo wa ku nsi, wabula Omwoyo eyava eri Katonda, tulyoke tumanye ebintu Katonda bye yatuwa obuwa, 132:13 1Ko 1:17era ne mu bigambo bye twogera so si mu kuyigirizibwa okw’amagezi g’abantu, naye mu bigambo Omwoyo by’ayigiriza, ebintu eby’Omwoyo nga bikwatagana n’eby’Omwoyo. 142:14 1Ko 1:18Omuntu obuntu tasobola kufuna bintu bya Mwoyo wa Katonda, kubanga busirusiru gy’ali, era tasobola kubimanya, kubanga bikeberwa Mwoyo. 15Naye omuntu ow’Omwoyo akebera ebintu byonna, naye tewali n’omu amukebera.
162:16 a Is 40:13 b Yk 15:15“Kubanga ani eyali ategedde okulowooza kwa Mukama,
era ani alimulagira?
Kyokka ffe tulina endowooza ya Kristo.”
