1 Corinthians 2:1-5
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
And I Came To You Proclaiming Christ Crucified Without Human Eloquence Or Wisdom
2 And I, having come[a] to you, brothers, did not come in accordance with superiority[b] of speech or of wisdom while proclaiming to you the mystery of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ— and this One having been crucified. 3 And I was[c] with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my proclamation was not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration[d] of [e] the Spirit and power, 5 in order that your faith might not be in the wisdom of humans but in the power of God.
