| 2:16 | For who knoweth the minde of the Lorde? other who shall informe him? But we vnderstand the minde of Christ. |
| 2:1 | And I brethren, when I came to you, came not in gloriousnesse of wordes, or of wisedome, shewing vnto you the testimonie of God. |

| 2:6 | And we speake wisedome among the that are perfite: not the wisedome of this world, neither of the princes of this world, which come to naught. |
| 2:7 | But we speake the wisedome of God in a misterie [euen] the hyd [wisedome] which God ordeyned before the worlde, vnto our glorie. |
| 2:8 | Which none of ye princes of this world knewe: For had they knowen it, they woulde not haue crucified the Lorde of glorie. |

| 2:12 | And we haue receaued, not the spirite of the worlde, but the spirite which is of God, that we myght know the thinges that are geuen to vs of God. |
| 2:13 | Which thynges also we speake, not in the wordes which mans wisedome teacheth, but which ye holy ghost teacheth, comparyng spirituall thynges with spirituall thynges. |

| 2:3 | And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. |
| 2:4 | And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power: |
| 2:5 | That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. |
| 2:6 | However, we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to naught: |
| 2:7 | But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the world to our glory: |

| 2:14 | But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. |
| 2:15 | But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged by no man. |
| 2:16 | For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. |
