'Recognizes' in the Bible

“For He recognizes and knows false and worthless men,And He sees wickedness, will He not consider it?

“Surely such are the dwellings of the wicked and the ungodly,And such is the place of him who does not know or recognize or honor God.”

Though the Lord is exalted,He regards the lowly [and invites them into His fellowship];But the proud and haughty He knows from a distance.

The Lord is good,A strength and stronghold in the day of trouble;He knows [He recognizes, cares for, and understands fully] those who take refuge and trust in Him.

and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the [humanly] wise, that they are useless.”

But from those who were of high reputation (whatever they were—in terms of individual importance—makes no difference to me; God shows no partiality—He is not impressed with the positions that people hold nor does He recognize distinctions such as fame or power)—well, those who were of reputation contributed nothing to me [that is, they had nothing to add to my gospel message nor did they impose any new requirements on me].
