New American Standard Bible 1995
1 Corinthians 1:17-18
171For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, 2not in 3cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made void.
18For the word of the cross is 4foolishness to 5those who 6are perishing, but to us who 7are being saved it is 8the power of God.
