1 # Paul <3972>, called <2822> to be an apostle <652> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> through <1223> the will <2307> of God <2316>, and <2532> Sosthenes <4988> our brother <80>,
2 Unto the church <1577> of God <2316> which <3588> is <5607> (5752) at <1722> Corinth <2882> , to them that are sanctified <37> (5772) in <1722> Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>, called <2822> to be saints <40>, with <4862> all <3956> that in <1722> every <3956> place <5117> call upon <1941> (5734) the name <3686> of Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Lord <2962>, both <5037> theirs <846> and <2532> ours <2257>:
3 Grace <5485> be unto you <5213>, and <2532> peace <1515>, from <575> God <2316> our <2257> Father <3962>, and <2532> from the Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.
4 I thank <2168> (5719) my <3450> God <2316> always <3842> on <4012> <0> your <5216> behalf <4012>, for <1909> the grace <5485> of God <2316> which <3588> is given <1325> (5685) you <5213> by <1722> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>;
5 That <3754> in <1722> every thing <3956> ye are enriched <4148> (5681) by <1722> him <846> , in <1722> all <3956> utterance <3056>, and <2532> in all <3956> knowledge <1108>;
6 Even as <2531> the testimony <3142> of Christ <5547> was confirmed <950> (5681) in <1722> you <5213>:
7 So that <5620> ye <5209> come behind <5302> (5745) in <1722> no <3361> <3367> gift <5486>; waiting for <553> (5740) the coming <602> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>:
8 Who <3739> shall <950> <0> also <2532> confirm <950> (5692) you <5209> unto <2193> the end <5056>, that ye may be blameless <410> in <1722> the day <2250> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>.
9 God <2316> is faithful <4103>, by <1223> whom <3739> ye were called <2564> (5681) unto <1519> the fellowship <2842> of his <846> Son <5207> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> our <2257> Lord <2962>.
10 # Now <1161> I beseech <3870> (5719) you <5209>, brethren <80>, by <1223> the name <3686> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, that <2443> ye <3004> <0> all <3956> speak <3004> (5725) the same thing <846>, and <2532> that there be <5600> (5753) no <3361> divisions <4978> among <1722> you <5213>; but <1161> that ye be <5600> (5753) perfectly joined together <2675> (5772) in <1722> the same <846> mind <3563> and <2532> in <1722> the same <846> judgment <1106>.
11 For <1063> it hath been declared <1213> (5681) unto me <3427> of <4012> you <5216>, my <3450> brethren <80>, by <5259> them which are of the house <3588> of Chloe <5514>, that <3754> there are <1526> (5748) contentions <2054> among <1722> you <5213>.
12 Now <1161> this <5124> I say <3004> (5719), that <3754> every one <1538> of you <5216> saith <3004> (5719), I <1473> <3303> am <1510> (5748) of Paul <3972>; and <1161> I <1473> of Apollos <625>; and <1161> I <1473> of Cephas <2786>; and <1161> I <1473> of Christ <5547>.
13 Is <3307> <0> Christ <5547> divided <3307> (5769)? <3361> was <4717> <0> Paul <3972> crucified <4717> (5681) for <5228> you <5216>? or <2228> were ye baptized <907> (5681) in <1519> the name <3686> of Paul <3972>?
14 # I thank <2168> (5719) God <2316> that <3754> I baptized <907> (5656) none <3762> of you <5216>, but <1508> Crispus <2921> and <2532> Gaius <1050>;
15 Lest <3363> any <5100> should say <2036> (5632) that <3754> I had baptized <907> (5656) in <1519> mine own <1699> name <3686>.
16 And <1161> I baptized <907> (5656) also <2532> the household <3624> of Stephanas <4734>: besides <3063>, I know <1492> (5758) not <3756> whether I baptized <907> (5656) any <1536> other <243>.
17 # For <1063> Christ <5547> sent <649> (5656) me <3165> not <3756> to baptize <907> (5721), but <235> to preach the gospel <2097> (5733): not <3756> with <1722> wisdom <4678> of words <3056> , lest <3363> the cross <4716> of Christ <5547> should be made of none effect <2758> (5686).
18 For <1063> the preaching <3056> of the cross <4716> is <2076> (5748) to them <3303> that perish <622> (5730) foolishness <3472>; but <1161> unto us <2254> which are saved <4982> (5746) it is <2076> (5748) the power <1411> of God <2316>.
19 For <1063> it is written <1125> (5769), I will destroy <622> (5692) the wisdom <4678> of the wise <4680>, and <2532> will bring to nothing <114> (5692) the understanding <4907> of the prudent <4908>.
20 Where <4226> is the wise <4680>? where <4226> is the scribe <1122>? where <4226> is the disputer <4804> of this <5127> world <165>? hath <3471> <0> not <3780> God <2316> made foolish <3471> (5656) the wisdom <4678> of this <5127> world <2889>?
21 For <1063> after <1894> that in <1722> the wisdom <4678> of God <2316> the world <2889> by <1223> wisdom <4678> knew <1097> (5627) not <3756> God <2316>, it pleased <2106> (5656) God <2316> by <1223> the foolishness <3472> of preaching <2782> to save <4982> (5658) them that believe <4100> (5723).
22 For <2532> <1894> the Jews <2453> require <154> (5719) a sign <4592>, and <2532> the Greeks <1672> seek <2212> (5719) after wisdom <4678>:
23 But <1161> we <2249> preach <2784> (5719) Christ <5547> crucified <4717> (5772), unto the Jews <2453> a stumblingblock <3303> <4625>, and <1161> unto the Greeks <1672> foolishness <3472>;
24 But <1161> unto them <846> which <3588> are called <2822>, both <5037> Jews <2453> and <2532> Greeks <1672>, Christ <5547> the power <1411> of God <2316>, and <2532> the wisdom <4678> of God <2316>.
 - JEWS AND GENTILES
25 Because <3754> the foolishness <3474> of God <2316> is <2076> (5748) wiser than <4680> men <444>; and <2532> the weakness <772> of God <2316> is <2076> (5748) stronger than <2478> men <444>.
26 For <1063> ye see <991> (5719) your <5216> calling <2821>, brethren <80>, how that <3754> not <3756> many <4183> wise men <4680> after <2596> the flesh <4561>, not <3756> many <4183> mighty <1415> , not <3756> many <4183> noble <2104>, are called:
27 But <235> God <2316> hath chosen <1586> (5668) the foolish things <3474> of the world <2889> to <2443> confound <2617> (5725) the wise <4680>; and <2532> God <2316> hath chosen <1586> (5668) the weak things <772> of the world <2889> to <2443> confound <2617> (5725) the things which are mighty <2478>;
28 And <2532> base things <36> of the world <2889>, and <2532> things which are despised <1848> (5772) , hath <1586> <0> God <2316> chosen <1586> (5668), yea, and <2532> things which <3588> are <5607> (5752) not <3361>, to <2443> bring to nought <2673> (5661) things that are <5607> (5752):
29 That <3704> no <3361> <3956> flesh <4561> should glory <2744> (5667) in his presence <1799> <846>.
30 But <1161> of <1537> him <846> are <2075> (5748) ye <5210> in <1722> Christ <5547> Jesus <2424>, who <3739> of <575> God <2316> is made <1096> (5675) unto us <2254> <5037> wisdom <4678>, and righteousness <1343>, and <2532> sanctification <38>, and <2532> redemption <629>:
31 That <2443>, according as <2531> it is written <1125> (5769), He that glorieth <2744> (5740), let him glory <2744> (5737) in <1722> the Lord <2962>.
