1 Corinthians 1:17-21
17ForG1063 ChristG5547 did notG3756 sendG649 meG1473 to baptizeG907, butG235 to preach the gospelG2097, notG3756 withG1722 wordsG3056 of wisdomG4678, lestG2443G3361 theG3588 crossG4716 ofG3588 ChristG5547 be emptied of its powerG2758.
18ForG1063 theG3588 messageG3056 of theG3588 crossG4716 isG1510 foolishnessG3472 to those whoG3588 are perishingG622, butG1161 to us whoG1473 are being savedG4982 it isG1510 the powerG1411 of GodG2316. 19ForG1063 it is writtenG1125:
20WhereG4226 is the wiseG4680 man? WhereG4226 is the scribeG1122? WhereG4226 is the philosopherG4804 of thisG3778 ageG165? Has notG3780 GodG2316 made foolishG3471 theG3588 wisdomG4678 of theG3588 worldG2889? 21ForG1063 sinceG1894 inG1722 theG3588 wisdomG4678 of GodG2316 theG3588 worldG2889 throughG1223 its wisdomG4678 did notG3756 knowG1097 Him, GodG2316 was pleasedG2106 throughG1223 theG3588 foolishnessG3472 of whatG3588 was preachedG2782 to saveG4982 those whoG3588 believeG4100.
