1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes the brother,
παυλος κλητος αποστολος ιησου χριστου δια θεληματος θεου και σωσθενης ο αδελφος
2 to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, to called men, to holy men who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus with all in every place who call upon the name of our the Lord Jesus Christ-both ours and theirs.
τη εκκλησια του θεου τη ουση εν κορινθω ηγιασμενοις εν χριστω ιησου κλητοις αγιοις συν πασιν τοις επικαλουμενοις το ονομα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου εν παντι τοπω αυτων τε και ημων
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου
4 I thank my God always about you, for the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus,
ευχαριστω τω θεω μου παντοτε περι υμων επι τη χαριτι του θεου τη δοθειση υμιν εν χριστω ιησου
5 that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all speech and in all knowledge.
οτι εν παντι επλουτισθητε εν αυτω εν παντι λογω και παση γνωσει
6 Just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you,
καθως το μαρτυριον του χριστου εβεβαιωθη εν υμιν
7 so that ye come behind in not one gift, waiting for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ,
ωστε υμας μη υστερεισθαι εν μηδενι χαρισματι απεκδεχομενους την αποκαλυψιν του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
8 who will also confirm you until the end, irreproachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
ος και βεβαιωσει υμας εως τελους ανεγκλητους εν τη ημερα του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
9 God is faithful through whom ye were called for the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
πιστος ο θεος δι ου εκληθητε εις κοινωνιαν του υιου αυτου ιησου χριστου του κυριου ημων
10 Now I beseech you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and there be no divisions among you, but ye may be thoroughly prepared in the same mind and in the same understanding.
παρακαλω δε υμας αδελφοι δια του ονοματος του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ινα το αυτο λεγητε παντες και μη η εν υμιν σχισματα ητε δε κατηρτισμενοι εν τω αυτω νοι και εν τη αυτη γνωμη
11 For it was declared to me about you, my brothers, by those of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
εδηλωθη γαρ μοι περι υμων αδελφοι μου υπο των χλοης οτι εριδες εν υμιν εισιν
12 Now I say this. That each of you actually say, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.
λεγω δε τουτο οτι εκαστος υμων λεγει εγω μεν ειμι παυλου εγω δε απολλω εγω δε κηφα εγω δε χριστου
13 Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you, or were ye immersed in the name of Paul?
μεμερισται ο χριστος μη παυλος εσταυρωθη υπερ υμων η εις το ονομα παυλου εβαπτισθητε
14 I thank God that I immersed none of you except Crispus and Gaius,
ευχαριστω τω θεω οτι ουδενα υμων εβαπτισα ει μη κρισπον και γαιον
15 lest some man should say that I immersed in my name.
ινα μη τις ειπη οτι εις το εμον ονομα εβαπτισα
16 And I also immersed the household of Stephanas. Besides, I know not whether I immersed any other.
εβαπτισα δε και τον στεφανα οικον λοιπον ουκ οιδα ει τινα αλλον εβαπτισα
17 For Christ sent me not to immerse, but to preach the good news, not in wisdom of speech lest the cross of Christ would be emptied.
ου γαρ απεστειλεν με χριστος βαπτιζειν αλλ ευαγγελιζεσθαι ουκ εν σοφια λογου ινα μη κενωθη ο σταυρος του χριστου
18 For the message of the cross is of course foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is a power of God.
ο λογος γαρ ο του σταυρου τοις μεν απολλυμενοις μωρια εστιν τοις δε σωζομενοις ημιν δυναμις θεου εστιν
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will frustrate the understanding of those of understanding.
γεγραπται γαρ απολω την σοφιαν των σοφων και την συνεσιν των συνετων αθετησω
20 Where is a wise man? Where is a scholar? Where is a researcher of this age? Did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)
που σοφος που γραμματευς που συζητητης του αιωνος τουτου ουχι εμωρανεν ο θεος την σοφιαν του κοσμου τουτου (aiōn g165)
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world did not know God through its wisdom, it pleased God through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
επειδη γαρ εν τη σοφια του θεου ουκ εγνω ο κοσμος δια της σοφιας τον θεον ευδοκησεν ο θεος δια της μωριας του κηρυγματος σωσαι τους πιστευοντας
22 And because Jews demand a sign and Greeks search for wisdom,
επειδη και ιουδαιοι σημειον αιτουσιν και ελληνες σοφιαν ζητουσιν
23 but we proclaim Christ crucified, it is truly to Jews a stumbling-block and to Gentiles foolishness.
ημεις δε κηρυσσομεν χριστον εσταυρωμενον ιουδαιοις μεν σκανδαλον ελλησιν δε μωριαν
24 But to them, to the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
αυτοις δε τοις κλητοις ιουδαιοις τε και ελλησιν χριστον θεου δυναμιν και θεου σοφιαν
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.
οτι το μωρον του θεου σοφωτερον των ανθρωπων εστιν και το ασθενες του θεου ισχυροτερον των ανθρωπων εστιν
26 For notice your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many eminent.
βλεπετε γαρ την κλησιν υμων αδελφοι οτι ου πολλοι σοφοι κατα σαρκα ου πολλοι δυνατοι ου πολλοι ευγενεις
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world, so that he might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world, so that he might humiliate the powerful.
αλλα τα μωρα του κοσμου εξελεξατο ο θεος ινα τους σοφους καταισχυνη και τα ασθενη του κοσμου εξελεξατο ο θεος ινα καταισχυνη τα ισχυρα
28 And God chose the common things of the world, and the disdained things, and the things that are not, so that he might make useless the things that are,
και τα αγενη του κοσμου και τα εξουθενημενα εξελεξατο ο θεος και τα μη οντα ινα τα οντα καταργηση
29 so that no flesh may boast before God.
οπως μη καυχησηται πασα σαρξ ενωπιον αυτου
30 But ye are his, in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
εξ αυτου δε υμεις εστε εν χριστω ιησου ος εγενηθη ημιν σοφια απο θεου δικαιοσυνη τε και αγιασμος και απολυτρωσις
31 so that, just as it is written, He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.
ινα καθως γεγραπται ο καυχωμενος εν κυριω καυχασθω
