1 Corinthians 1:19-26

19For it is writtenG1125: “1I will destroyG622 the wisdomG4678 of the wiseG4680, And the understandingG4907 of thoseG3588 who haveG4908 understandingG4908, I will confoundG114.” 202WhereG4226 is the wiseG4680 personG4680? WhereG4226 is the scribeG1122? WhereG4226 is the debaterG4804 of 3thisG3778 ageG165? Has GodG2316 not 4madeG3471 foolishG3471 the wisdomG4678 of 5the worldG2889? 21For sinceG1894 in the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316 6the worldG2889 throughG1223 its wisdomG4678 did not come to knowG1097 GodG2316, 7GodG2316 8was pleasedG2106 throughG1223 the 9foolishnessG3472 of the 10messageG2782 preachedG2782 to 11saveG4982 thoseG3588 who believeG4100. 22For indeedG2532 12JewsG2453 askG154 for 13signsG4592 and GreeksG1672 searchG2212 forG2212 wisdomG4678; 23but we preachG2784 1415ChristG5547 crucifiedG4717, 16to JewsG2453 a stumblingG4625 blockG4625, and to GentilesG1484 17foolishnessG3472, 24but to thoseG3588 who are 18the calledG2822, bothG5037 JewsG2453 and GreeksG1672, ChristG5547 19the powerG1411 of GodG2316 and 20the wisdomG4678 of GodG2316. 25For the 21foolishnessG3474 of GodG2316 is wiserG4680 than mankindG444, and 22the weaknessG772 of GodG2316 is strongerG2478 than mankindG444.

26For 23considerG991 your 24callingG2821, brothersG80 and sisters, that there were 25not manyG4183 wiseG4680 accordingG2596 to 26the fleshG4561, not manyG4183 mightyG1415, not manyG4183 nobleG2104;
