歌羅西書 2:8
See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.
你們要謹慎，恐怕有人用他的理學和虛空的妄言，不照著基督，乃照人間的遺傳和世上的小學就把你們擄去。
哥林多前書 2:13
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.
並且我們講說這些事，不是用人智慧所指教的言語，乃是用聖靈所指教的言語，將屬靈的話解釋屬靈的事。（或作：將屬靈的事講與屬靈的人）
哥林多前書 2:6
- 10
We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.
No, we declare God's wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.
None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
However, as it is written: "What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived" - the things God has prepared for those who love him-
these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.
然而，在完全的人中，我們也講智慧。但不是這世上的智慧，也不是這世上有權有位、將要敗亡之人的智慧。
我們講的，乃是從前所隱藏、神奧秘的智慧，就是神在萬世以前預定使我們得榮耀的。
這智慧世上有權有位的人沒有一個知道的、他們若知道，就不把榮耀的主釘在十字架上了。
如經上所記：神為愛他的人所預備的是眼睛未曾看見，耳朵未曾聽見，人心也未曾想到的。
只有神藉著聖靈向我們顯明了，因為聖靈參透萬事，就是神深奧的事也參透了。
歌羅西書 2:16
- 19
Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day.
These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ.
Do not let anyone who delights in false humility and the worship of angels disqualify you. Such a person also goes into great detail about what they have seen; they are puffed up with idle notions by their unspiritual mind.
They have lost connection with the head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow.
所以，不拘在飲食上，或節期、月朔、安息日都不可讓人論斷你們。
這些原是後事的影兒；那形體卻是基督。
不可讓人因著故意謙虛和敬拜天使，就奪去你們的獎賞。這等人拘泥在所見過的（有古卷：這等人窺察所沒有見過的），隨著自己的慾心，無故的自高自大，
不持定元首。全身既然靠著他，筋節得以相助聯絡，就因神大得長進。
提多書 3:9
- 10
But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and arguments and quarrels about the law, because these are unprofitable and useless.
Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them.
要遠避無知的辯論和家譜的空談，以及分爭，並因律法而起的爭競，因為這都是虛妄無益的。
分門結黨的人，警戒過一兩次，就要棄絕他。
哥林多前書 1:21
For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
世人憑自己的智慧，既不認識神，神就樂意用人所當作愚拙的道理，拯救那些信的人；這就是神的智慧了。
哥林多前書 1:17
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel-not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
基督差遣我，原不是為施洗，乃是為傳福音，並不用智慧的言語，免得基督的十字架落了空。
哥林多前書 2:1
- 5
And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.
For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling.
My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power,
so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God's power.
弟兄們，從前我到你們那裡去，並沒有用高言大智對你們宣傳神的奧秘。
因為我曾定了主意，在你們中間不知道別的，只知道耶穌基督並他釘十字架。
我在你們那裡，又軟弱又懼怕，又甚戰兢。
我說的話、講的道，不是用智慧委婉的言語，乃是用聖靈和大能的明證，
叫你們的信不在乎人的智慧，只在乎神的大能。
提摩太前書 6:20
Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to your care. Turn away from godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge,
提摩太啊，你要保守所託付你的，躲避世俗的虛談和那敵真道、似是而非的學問。
箴言 25:2
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
將事隱秘乃神的榮耀；將事察清乃君王的榮耀。
約翰福音 3:18
Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.
信他的人，不被定罪；不信的人，罪已經定了，因為他不信神獨生子的名。
使徒行傳 17:18
A group of Epicurean and Stoic philosophers began to debate with him. Some of them asked, "What is this babbler trying to say?" Others remarked, "He seems to be advocating foreign gods." They said this because Paul was preaching the good news about Jesus and the resurrection.
還有以彼古羅和斯多亞兩門的學士，與他爭論。有的說：「這胡言亂語的要說什麼？」有的說：「他似乎是傳說外邦鬼神的。」這話是因保羅傳講耶穌與復活的道。
羅馬書 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
自從造天地以來，神的永能和神性是明明可知的，雖是眼不能見，但藉著所造之物就可以曉得，叫人無可推諉。
羅馬書 1:19
since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them.
神的事情，人所能知道的，原顯明在人心裡，因為神已經給他們顯明。
羅馬書 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
因為罪的工價乃是死；惟有神的恩賜，在我們的主基督耶穌裡，乃是永生。
哥林多前書 1:22
Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom,
猶太人是要神蹟，希利尼人是求智慧，
約翰一書 4:1
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
親愛的弟兄啊，一切的靈，你們不可都信，總要試驗那些靈是出於神的不是，因為世上有許多假先知已經出來了。
