10 [a](A)For to us God revealed them (B)through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the (C)depths of God. 11 For who among people knows the thoughts of a person except the (D)spirit of the person that is in him? So also the thoughts of God no one knows, except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we (E)have not received the spirit of (F)the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God. 13 We also speak these things, (G)not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, [b]combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.
14 But [c]a (H)natural person (I)does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are (J)foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But the one who is (K)spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is [d]discerned by no one. 16 For (L)who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But (M)we have the mind of Christ.

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. 11 For who knows a person’s thoughts(C) except their own spirit(D) within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12 What we have received is not the spirit(E) of the world,(F) but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom(G) but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.[a] 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God(H) but considers them foolishness,(I) and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 15 The person with the Spirit(J) makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, 16 for,

10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.
