Tyndale - I Corinthians - 2

2:1  And I brethren when I came to you came not in gloriousnes of wordes or of wysdome shewynge vnto you the testimony of God.

2:2  Nether shewed I my selfe that I knewe eny thinge amonge you save Iesus Christ eve the same that was crucified.

2:3  And I was amoge you in weaknes and in feare and in moche treblinge.

2:4  And my wordes and my preachinge were not with entysynge wordes of manes wysdome: but in shewinge of ye sprete and of power

2:5  that youre fayth shuld not stonde in ye wysdome of me but in yt power of God.

2:6  That we speake of is wysdome amonge them that are perfecte: not the wysdome of this worlde nether of the rulars of this worlde (which go to nought)

2:7  but we speake ye wysdome of God which is in secrete and lieth hyd which God ordeyned before the worlde vnto oure glory:

2:8  which wysdome none of ye rulars of the worlde knewe. For had they knowe it they wolde not have crucified the Lorde of glory.

2:9  But as it is written: The eye hath not sene and the eare hath not hearde nether have entred into the herte of man ye thinges which God hath prepared for them that love him.

2:10  But God hath opened them vnto vs by his sprete. For ye sprete searcheth all thinges ye the bottome of Goddes secretes.

2:11  For what man knoweth the thinges of a ma: save ye sprete of a man which is with in him? Even so ye thinges of God knoweth no man but ye sprete of god.

2:12  And we have not receaved the sprete of ye worlde: but the sprete which cometh of god for to knowe the thinges that are geve to vs of god

2:13  which thinges also we speake not in the conynge wordes of manes wysdome but with the conynge wordes of the holy goost makynge spretuall coparesons of spretuall thinges.

2:14  For ye naturall man perceaveth not the thinges of the sprete of god. For they are but folysshnes vnto him. Nether can he perceave them because he is spretually examined.

2:15  But he that is spretuall discusseth all thinges: yet he him selfe is iudged of no ma.

2:16  For who knoweth the mynde of the Lorde other who shall informe him? But we vnderstonde the mynde of Christ.
