1 Corinthians 1:18--2:5

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>_.
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>_.
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>_?
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)_.
For
<2532> <1894>
the Jews
<2453>
require
<154> (5719)
a sign
<4592>_,
and
<2532>
the Greeks
<1672>
seek
<2212> (5719)
after wisdom
<4678>_:
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>_;
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>_.
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>_.
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]:
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>_;
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)_:
That
<3704>
no
<3361> <3956>
flesh
<4561>
should glory
<2744> (5667)
in his presence
<1799> <846>_.
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>_:
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>_.
And I
<2504>_,
brethren
<80>_,
when I came
<2064> (5631)
to
<4314>
you
<5209>_,
came
<2064> (5627)
not
<3756>
with
<2596>
excellency
<5247>
of speech
<3056>
or
<2228>
of wisdom
<4678>_,
declaring
<2605> (5723)
unto you
<5213>
the testimony
<3142>
of God
<2316>_.
For
<1063>
I determined
<2919> (5656)
not
<3756>
to know
<1492> (5760)
any thing
<5100>
among
<1722>
you
<5213>_,
save
<1508>
Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
and
<2532>
him
<5126>
crucified
<4717> (5772)_.
And
<2532>
I
<1473>
was
<1096> (5633)
with
<4314>
you
<5209>
in
<1722>
weakness
<769>_,
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
fear
<5401>_,
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
much
<4183>
trembling
<5156>_.
And
<2532>
my
<3450>
speech
<3056>
and
<2532>
my
<3450>
preaching
<2782>
[was] not
<3756>
with
<1722>
enticing
<3981>
words
<3056>
of man's
<442>
wisdom
<4678>_,
but
<235>
in
<1722>
demonstration
<585>
of the Spirit
<4151>
and
<2532>
of power
<1411>_:
{enticing: or, persuasible}
That
<2443>
your
<5216>
faith
<4102>
should
<5600> (0)
not
<3361>
stand
<5600> (5753)
in
<1722>
the wisdom
<4678>
of men
<444>_,
but
<235>
in
<1722>
the power
<1411>
of God
<2316>_.
{stand: Gr. be}
