1 Corinthians 2:7-11

NSB(i) 7 We speak the wisdom of God in a secret, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the ages (generations and human entities) for our glory. 8 None of the rulers of this age knew (understood) for had they known it they would not have impaled the glorious Lord (esteemed Master). 9 It is written: »Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, and it has not entered into the heart of man, the things God prepared for those who love him.« (Isaiah 64:4) 10 But God revealed them to us by his Spirit. For the Spirit investigates (searches) all things, yes even the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man, except the mental disposition that is in man? Even so no one knows the things of God, but the Spirit of God.
