1 Corinthians 1:25-29

25Because the foolishness of 1God is wiser than men, and the weakness of 2God is stronger than men.

26For consider your calling, brethren, that [there are] not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born.

27But 3God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and 4God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;

28and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has 5God chosen, [and] things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;

29so that no flesh should boast before 6God.
