1 Corinthians 1:26-28
26For 1consider your 2calling, brothers and sisters, that there were 3not many wise according to 4the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble;
27but 5God has chosen the foolish things of 6the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of 7the world to shame the things which are strong,
28and the 8insignificant things of 9the world and the despised God has chosen, 10the things that are not, so that He may 11nullify the things that are,
