Chapter 2
1 And I, when I came to you, brethren, came not in excellency of word, or wisdom, announcing to you the testimony of1 God.

6 But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought.

10 but1 God has revealed to us by [his] Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of2 God.

11 For who of men hath known the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? thus also the things of1 God knows no one except the Spirit of2 God.

12 But we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which [is] of1 God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of2 God:

13 which also we speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, communicating spiritual [things] by spiritual [means].
