For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?

For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard {it}? {counsel: or, secret}

The secret {things belong} unto the LORD our God: but those {things which are} revealed {belong} unto us and to our children for ever, that {we} may do all the words of this law.

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

O that ye would altogether hold your peace! and it should be your wisdom.

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

The secret of the LORD {is} with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant. {and...: or, and his covenant to make them know it}

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. {may: Gr. shall}

As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God {was} upon my tabernacle;

Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.

No doubt but ye {are} the people, and wisdom shall die with you.

And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that {they are} double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee {less} than thine iniquity {deserveth}.

Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.

For the froward {is} abomination to the LORD: but his secret {is} with the righteous.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. {may: Gr. shall}

For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?

Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn? {turn: or, look?}

And that he would shew thee the secrets of wisdom, that {they are} double to that which is! Know therefore that God exacteth of thee {less} than thine iniquity {deserveth}.

As I was in the days of my youth, when the secret of God {was} upon my tabernacle;

For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard {it}? {counsel: or, secret}

Behold, thou {art} wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

{Are} the consolations of God small with thee? is there any secret thing with thee?

How hast thou counselled {him that hath} no wisdom? and {how} hast thou plentifully declared the thing as it is?

Lest ye should say, We have found out wisdom: God thrusteth him down, not man.

What ye know, {the same} do I know also: I {am} not inferior unto you.
