The Latin Vulgate VUL
The Webster Bible WBT
1 et ego cum venissem ad vos fratres veni non per sublimitatem sermonis aut sapientiae adnuntians vobis testimonium Christi
1
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellence of speech, or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.
2 non enim iudicavi scire me aliquid inter vos nisi Iesum Christum et hunc crucifixum
2
For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
3 et ego in infirmitate et timore et tremore multo fui apud vos
3
And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
4 et sermo meus et praedicatio mea non in persuasibilibus sapientiae verbis sed in ostensione Spiritus et virtutis
4
And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power:
5 ut fides vestra non sit in sapientia hominum sed in virtute Dei
5
That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6 sapientiam autem loquimur inter perfectos sapientiam vero non huius saeculi neque principum huius saeculi qui destruuntur
6
However, 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 naught:
7 sed loquimur Dei sapientiam in mysterio quae abscondita est quam praedestinavit Deus ante saecula in gloriam nostram
7
But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom] which God ordained before the world to our glory:
8 quam nemo principum huius saeculi cognovit si enim cognovissent numquam Dominum gloriae crucifixissent
8
Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
9 sed sicut scriptum est quod oculus non vidit nec auris audivit nec in cor hominis ascendit quae praeparavit Deus his qui diligunt illum
9
But 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.
10 nobis autem revelavit Deus per Spiritum suum Spiritus enim omnia scrutatur etiam profunda Dei
10
But God hath revealed [them] to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searcheth all things, even the deep things of God.
11 quis enim scit hominum quae sint hominis nisi spiritus hominis qui in ipso est ita et quae Dei sunt nemo cognovit nisi Spiritus Dei
11
For 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.
12 nos autem non spiritum mundi accepimus sed Spiritum qui ex Deo est ut sciamus quae a Deo donata sunt nobis
12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we may know the things that are freely given to us by God.
13 quae et loquimur non in doctis humanae sapientiae verbis sed in doctrina Spiritus spiritalibus spiritalia conparantes
13
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Spirit teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 animalis autem homo non percipit ea quae sunt Spiritus Dei stultitia est enim illi et non potest intellegere quia spiritaliter examinatur
14
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.
15 spiritalis autem iudicat omnia et ipse a nemine iudicatur
15
But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged by no man.
16 quis enim cognovit sensum Domini qui instruat eum nos autem sensum Christi habemus
16
For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
