1 Corinthians 2:7
| ← 1 Corinthians 2:6 | 1 Corinthians 2:7 (KJV) | 1 Corinthians 2:8 → |
|---|---|---|
Howbeit 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 nought:
|
But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
|
Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
