9 But, as it is written,
(A)“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has (B)prepared (C)for those who love him”—
10 these things (D)God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even (E)the depths of God. 11 For who knows a person's thoughts (F)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 (G)we have received not (H)the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.

8 Once when the king of Syria was warring against Israel, he took counsel with his servants, saying, “At such and such a place shall be my camp.” 9 But the man of God sent word to the king of Israel, “Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Syrians are going down there.” 10 And the king of Israel sent to the place about which the man of God told him. Thus he used to warn him, so that he saved himself there more than once or twice.
11 And the mind of the king of Syria was greatly troubled because of this thing, and he called his servants and said to them, “Will you not show me who of us is for the king of Israel?” 12 And one of his servants said, “None, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom.”
