2:1-5 God’s sovereign work made Paul’s preaching effective. In his evangelism, Paul did not rely on the persuasive power of his intellect or his dynamic personality, but on the power of the Holy Spirit (see also study note on 1:18-31).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἡ πίστις ὑμῶν, μὴ ᾖ ἐν σοφίᾳ ἀνθρώπων, ἀλλ’ ἐν δυνάμει Θεοῦ
the faith ˱of˲_you_all not may_be in wisdom ˱of˲_humans but in /the/_power ˱of˲_God
Here, when someone has faith that is in something, the word in signals what the faith is based on. Unlike in many other cases, in does not introduce what it is that people trust. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the meaning of this phrase by translating in with a word or phrase that indicates the basis of the faith. Alternate translation: “your faith might not be based on the wisdom of men but be based on the power of God”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἡ πίστις ὑμῶν, μὴ ᾖ
the faith ˱of˲_you_all not may_be
If you cannot use this form in your language, you could express the idea in active form by translating faith with a verb such as “trust” or “believe.” Alternate translation: “you might believe not”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
σοφίᾳ ἀνθρώπων
wisdom ˱of˲_humans
Here Paul uses the possessive form to describe what men think is wisdom. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind this form by translating men with an adjective such as “human.” Alternate translation: “in human wisdom”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / gendernotations
ἀνθρώπων
˱of˲_humans
Although men is masculine, Paul is using it to refer to anyone, whether man or woman. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express men with a non gendered word or refer to both genders. Alternate translation: “of people”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / possession
δυνάμει Θεοῦ
/the/_power ˱of˲_God
Here Paul uses the possessive form to speak of power that God has and shows. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express the idea behind the meaning of this phrase by translating power as a verb or adverb with God as the subject. Alternate translation: “God working powerfully”
