1 Corinthians 2:11-13
Holman Christian Standard Bible
11 For who among men knows the thoughts[a] of a man except the spirit(A) of the man that is in him? In the same way, no one knows(B) the thoughts[b] of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who comes from God, so that we may understand what has been freely given to us by God. 13 We also speak these things, not in words(C) taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual things to spiritual people.[c]

1 Corinthians 2:11-13
New King James Version
11 For what man knows the things of a man except the (A)spirit of the man which is in him? (B)Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but (C)the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
13 These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the [a]Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
