1 Corinthians 2:11-14

English Standard Version

¹¹ For who knows a person's thoughts ^(A)except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. ¹² Now ^(B)we have received not ^(C)the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. ¹³ And we impart this ^(D)in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, ^(E)interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.^[a]

¹⁴ The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are ^(F)folly to him, and ^(G)he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
