World English Bible
1 Corinthians 2:6
“We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown; yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing.”
Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 2
4
My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
5
that your faith wouldn't stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
6
We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown; yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing.
7
But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds for our glory,
8
which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn't have crucified the Lord of glory.
