1 Corinthians 2:8-16

8the wisdom 1whichG3739 noneG3762 of the rulersG758 of 2thisG3778 ageG165 has understoodG1097; for ifG1487 they had understoodG1097 it, they would not have crucifiedG4717 3the LordG2962 of gloryG1391; 9but justG2531 asG2531 it is writtenG1125: “4Things whichG3739 eyeG3788 has not seenG3708 and earG3775 has not heardG191, And which have not enteredG305 the humanG444 heartG2588, AllG3745 that GodG2316 has preparedG2090 for thoseG3588 who loveG25 Him.” 10 5 6For to us GodG2316 revealedG601 them 7throughG1223 the SpiritG4151; for the SpiritG4151 searchesG2038 allG3956 thingsG3956, evenG2532 the 8depthsG899 of GodG2316. 11For whoG5101 among peopleG444 knowsG3609 the thoughts of a personG444 exceptG1508 the 9spiritG4151 of the personG444 that is in him? SoG3779 alsoG2532 the thoughts of GodG2316 noG3762 oneG3762 knowsG1097, exceptG1508 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316. 12NowG1161 we 10have not receivedG2983 the spiritG4151 of 11the worldG2889, but the SpiritG4151 whoG3588 is from GodG2316, soG2443 thatG2443 we may knowG3609 the thingsG5483 freelyG5483 givenG5483 to us by GodG2316. 13We alsoG2532 speakG2980 theseG3739 things, 12not in wordsG3056 taughtG1318 by humanG442 wisdomG4678, but in those taughtG1318 by the SpiritG4151, 13combiningG4793 spiritualG4152 thoughts with spiritualG4152 words.

14But 14a 15naturalG5591 personG444 16does not acceptG1209 the things of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316, for they are 17foolishnessG3472 to him; and he cannotG1410 G3756 understandG1097 them, becauseG3754 they are spirituallyG4153 discernedG350. 15But the one who is 18spiritualG4152 discernsG350 allG3956 thingsG3956, yetG1161 he himselfG846 is 19discernedG350 by noG3762 oneG3762. 16For 20whoG5101 has knownG1097 the mindG3563 of the LordG2962, that he will instructG4822 Him? But 21we haveG2192 the mindG3563 of ChristG5547.
