1 Corinthians 1:19-31
19For it is writtenG1125, I will destroyG622 the wisdomG4678 of the wiseG4680, and setG114 asideG114 the understandingG4907 of the understandingG4907 ones. 20WhereG4226 [is the] wiseG4680? whereG4226 scribeG1122? whereG4226 disputer of this worldG2889? has not 1GodG2316 made foolish the wisdomG4678 of the worldG2889? 21For since, in the wisdomG4678 of 2GodG2316, the worldG2889 by wisdomG4678 has not knownG1097 3GodG2316, 4GodG2316 has been pleased by the foolishnessG3472 of the preachingG2782 to saveG4982 those that believeG4100. 22Since JewsG2453 indeed askG154 for signsG4592, and GreeksG1672 seekG2212 wisdomG4678; 23but we preachG2784 ChristG5547 crucifiedG4717, to JewsG2453 an offence, and to nationsG1484 foolishnessG3472; 24but to those that [are] calledG2822, both JewsG2453 and GreeksG1672, ChristG5547 5God's powerG1411 and 6God's wisdomG4678. 25Because the foolishness of 7GodG2316 isG1510 wiser than menG444, and the weaknessG772 of 8GodG2316 isG1510 strongerG2478 than menG444. 26For considerG991 your callingG2821, brethren, that [there are] not manyG4183 wiseG4680 accordingG2596 to fleshG4561, not manyG4183 powerfulG1415, not manyG4183 high-born. 27But 9GodG2316 has chosen the foolishG3474 things of the worldG2889, that he may put to shameG2617 the wiseG4680; and 10GodG2316 has chosen the weakG772 things of the worldG2889, that he may put to shameG2617 the strongG2478 things; 28and the ignoble things of the worldG2889, and the despisedG1848, has 11GodG2316 chosen, [and] things that areG1510 not, that he may annul the things that areG1510; 29soG3704 that no fleshG4561 should boastG2744 before 12GodG2316. 30But of him areG1510 ye in ChristG5547 JesusG2424, who has beenG1510 made to us wisdomG4678 from 13GodG2316, and righteousnessG1343, and holinessG38, and redemptionG629; 31that according as it is writtenG1125, He that boastsG2744, let him boastG2744 in [the] LordG2962.
