6Yet among e the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not f a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, g who are doomed to pass away. 7But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, h which God decreed before the ages for our glory. 8None of i the rulers of this age understood this, for j if they had, they would not have crucified k the Lord of glory. 9But, as it is written, l “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has m prepared n for those who love him”— 10these things o God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even p the depths of God. 11For who knows a person’s thoughts q except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12Now r we have received not s the 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 t in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, u interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. [4] 14The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are v folly to him, and w he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. 15The x spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. 16 y “For who has understood the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But z we have the mind of Christ.
