14 But [a]a (A)natural person (B)does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are (C)foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But the one who is (D)spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is [b]discerned by no one. 16 For (E)who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But (F)we have the mind of Christ.

  2. 1 Corinthians 2:15 Or judged

14 But a person who denies spiritual realities will not accept the things that come through the Spirit of God; they all sound like foolishness to him. He is incapable of grasping them because they are disseminated, discerned, and valued by the Spirit. 15 A person who walks by the Spirit examines everything, sizing it up and seeking out truth. But no one is able to examine or size up that kind of spiritual person, 16 for the Scripture asks, “Does anyone know the mind of the Lord well enough to become His advisor?”[a] But we do possess the mind of the Anointed One.

  1. 2:16 Isaiah 40:13

14 People who do not have God’s Spirit do not accept the things that come from his Spirit. They think these things are foolish. They cannot understand them, because they can only be understood with the Spirit’s help. 15 We who have the Spirit are able to make judgments about all these things. But anyone without the Spirit is not able to make proper judgments about us. 16 As the Scriptures say,

“Who can know what is on the Lord’s mind?
    Who is able to give him advice?” (A)

But we have been given Christ’s way of thinking.

14 Pero el hombre natural[a](A) no acepta las cosas del Espíritu de Dios(B), porque para él son necedad(C); y no las puede entender, porque son cosas que se disciernen[b] espiritualmente(D). 15 En cambio, el que es espiritual(E) juzga todas las cosas; pero él no es juzgado por nadie. 16 Porque ¿quién ha conocido la mente del Señor, para que lo instruya(F)? Pero nosotros tenemos la mente de Cristo(G).
