1 Corinthians 2:9-14

9but just as it is written: “1Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, And which have not entered the human heart, All that God has prepared for those who love Him.” 10 2 3For to us God revealed them 4through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the 5depths of God. 11For who among people knows the thoughts of a person except the 6spirit of the person that is in him? So also the thoughts of God no one knows, except the Spirit of God. 12Now we 7have not received the spirit of 8the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God. 13We also speak these things, 9not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, 10combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.

14But 11a 12natural person 13does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are 14foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
