1 Corinthians 2:8-10
New Catholic Bible
8 None of the rulers of this age comprehended it. If they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.[a] 9 For as it is written,
“Eye has not seen, ear has not heard,
nor has the human heart imagined
what God has prepared for those who love him.”
10 The Spirit Enables Faith To Mature. However, God has revealed these things to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit explores everything, even the depths of God.
