1And I, when I came to you, brethren, came not in excellency of word, or wisdom, announcing to you the testimony of °ElohimGod. 2For I did not judge [it well] to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3And I was with you in weakness and in fear and in much trembling; 4and my word and my preaching, not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of [the] Spirit and of power; 5that your faith might not stand in men's wisdom, but in °ElohimGod's power. 6But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought. 7But we speak °ElohimGod's wisdom in [a] mystery, that hidden [wisdom] which °ElohimGod had predetermined before the ages for our glory: 8which none of the princes of this age knew, (for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory;) 9but according as it is written, Things which eye has not seen, and ear not heard, and which have not come into man's heart, which °ElohimGod has prepared for them that love him, 10but °ElohimGod has revealed to us by [his] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of °ElohimGod. 11For who of men hath known the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? thus also the things of °ElohimGod knows no one except the Spirit of °ElohimGod. 12But we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which [is] of °ElohimGod, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of °ElohimGod: 13which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, communicating spiritual [things] by spiritual [means]. 14But [the] natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of °ElohimGod, for they are folly to him; and he cannot know [them] because they are spiritually discerned; 15but the spiritual discerns all things, and he is discerned of no one. 16For who has known the mind of [the] Lord, who shall instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
