1 Corinthians 1:22-28

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 1God's powerG1411 and 2God's wisdomG4678.

25Because the foolishness of 3GodG2316 isG1510 wiser than menG444, and the weaknessG772 of 4GodG2316 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 5GodG2316 has chosen the foolishG3474 things of the worldG2889, that he may put to shameG2617 the wiseG4680; and 6GodG2316 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 7GodG2316 chosen, [and] things that areG1510 not, that he may annul the things that areG1510;
