1 Corinthians 2:6-13
American Standard Version
6 We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this [a]world, nor of the rulers of this [b]world, who are coming to nought: 7 but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, even the wisdom that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the [c]worlds unto our glory: 8 which none of the rulers of this [d]world hath known: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory: 9 but as it is written,
[e]Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not,
And which entered not into the heart of man,
Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.
10 [f]But unto us God revealed [g]them through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God. 12 But we received, not the spirit of the [h]world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that were freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit teacheth; [i]combining spiritual things with spiritual words.

6 However de, we do speak laleō wisdom sophia among en those ho who are mature teleios, although de it is not ou the wisdom sophia of ho this houtos age aiōn or oude of the ho rulers archōn of ho this houtos age aiōn, who ho are doomed to perish katargeō. 7 Rather alla, we speak laleō the wisdom sophia of God theos; a wisdom that ho was hidden apokryptō in en mystery mystērion and that hos God theos had determined proorizō · ho before pro the ho ages aiōn for eis our hēmeis glory doxa. 8 None oudeis of the ho rulers archōn of ho this houtos age aiōn understood ginōskō it hos, for gar if ei they had ginōskō, they stauroō would an not ou have crucified stauroō the ho Lord kyrios of ho glory doxa. 9 But alla, as kathōs it is written graphō, “ No ou eye ophthalmos has seen, · kai no ou ear ous has heard akouō, · kai nor ou has the mind kardia of man anthrōpos imagined anabainō, the things that hos God theos has prepared hetoimazō · ho for those ho who love agapaō him autos.” 10 But de God theos has revealed apokalyptō them to us hēmeis · ho through dia his ho Spirit pneuma; for gar the ho Spirit pneuma searches eraunaō everything pas, even kai the ho deep bathos things of ho God theos. 11 For gar who tis among men anthrōpos can know oida the ho thoughts of ho a man anthrōpos except ei mē the ho man’ s own anthrōpos spirit pneuma · ho that ho is in en him autos? In the same houtōs way , · kai no one oudeis can understand ginōskō the ho thoughts of ho God theos except ei mē the ho Spirit pneuma of ho God theos. 12 · de It was not ou the ho spirit pneuma of the ho world kosmos that we hēmeis received lambanō, but alla the ho Spirit pneuma · ho sent from ek · ho God theos, that hina we might understand oida the ho gifts freely given charizomai to us hēmeis by hypo · ho God theos. 13 And kai we speak about laleō these hos things in en words logos not ou taught didaktos by human anthrōpinos wisdom sophia but alla taught didaktos by the Spirit pneuma, expressing synkrinō spiritual truths pneumatikos in spiritual pneumatikos words .
