1 Corinthians 2:12-15
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
12
Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God.
13
We also speak these things, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining spiritual
thoughts
with spiritual
words.
14
But a natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15
But the one who is spiritual discerns all things, yet he himself is discerned by no one.
King James Version
Chapter 2
12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15
But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
12
Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who comes from God, so that we may understand what has been freely given to us by God.
13
We also speak these things, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual things to spiritual people.
14
But the person without the Spirit does not receive what comes from God’s Spirit, because it is foolishness to him; he is not able to understand it since it is evaluated spiritually.
15
The spiritual person, however, can evaluate everything, and yet he himself cannot be evaluated by anyone.
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
12
And we have received God’s Spirit (not the world’s spirit), so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us.
13
When we tell you these things, we do not use words that come from human wisdom. Instead, we speak words given to us by the Spirit, using the Spirit’s words to explain spiritual truths.
14
But people who aren’t spiritual can’t receive these truths from God’s Spirit. It all sounds foolish to them and they can’t understand it, for only those who are spiritual can understand what the Spirit means.
15
Those who are spiritual can evaluate all things, but they themselves cannot be evaluated by others.
English Standard Version
Chapter 2
12
Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.
13
And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.
14
The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
15
The spiritual person judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one.
New International Version
Chapter 2
12
What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us.
13
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.
14
The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.
15
The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments,
New King James Version
Chapter 2
12
Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.
13
These things we also speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14
But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know
them,
because they are spiritually discerned.
15
But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is
rightly
judged by no one.
