1 Corinthians 2:9-14

9But, as it is written,

a“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has bprepared cfor those who love him”—
 10these things dGod has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even ethe depths of God. 11For who knows a person’s thoughts fexcept the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12Now gwe have received not hthe spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. 13And we impart this iin words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, jinterpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. ▼
▼Or  interpreting spiritual truths in spiritual language, or comparing spiritual things with spiritual

14The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are lfolly to him, and mhe is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
