< 1 Corinthians 1 >

1 Paul, [a] called apostle of Jesus Christ, by God's will, and Sosthenes the brother,
Paul a called apostle of Christ Jesus through [the] will of God and Sosthenes the brother
2 to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, to [those] sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all that in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours:
To the church of God which is being in Corinth, sanctified in Christ Jesus called holy, together with all those calling on the name of the Lord of us Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs (then *k*) and ours:
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace to you and peace from God Father of us and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.
4 I thank my God always about you, in respect of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus;
I thank the God of mine always concerning you for the grace of God which having been given you in Christ Jesus
5 that in everything ye have been enriched in him, in all word [of doctrine], and all knowledge,
for in everything you have been enriched in Him in all speech and in all knowledge,
6 (according as the testimony of the Christ has been confirmed in you, )
even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed in you,
7 so that ye come short in no gift, awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;
so as for you not to be lacking in not one gift eagerly awaiting the revelation of the Lord of us Jesus Christ;
8 who shall also confirm you to [the] end, unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
who also will sustain you to [the] end blameless in the day of the Lord of us Jesus Christ.
9 God [is] faithful, by whom ye have been called into [the] fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Faithful [is] God, through whom you were called into fellowship with the Son of Him Jesus Christ the Lord of us.
10 Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all say the same thing, and that there be not among you divisions; but that ye be perfectly united in the same mind and in the same opinion.
I exhort now you, brothers, through the name of the Lord of us Jesus Christ that the same thing you may speak all and not there may be among you divisions, you may be however knit together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
11 For it has been shewn to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of [the house of] Chloe, that there are strifes among you.
It was shown for to me concerning you, brothers of mine, by those of Chloe that quarrels among you there are.
12 But I speak of this, that each of you says, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.
I mean now this, that each of you says; I myself indeed am of Paul, I myself however of Apollos, I myself however of Cephas, I myself however of Christ.
13 Is the Christ divided? has Paul been crucified for you? or have ye been baptised unto the name of Paul?
Has been divided Christ? Surely not Paul was crucified for you? Or into the name of Paul were you baptized?
14 I thank God that I have baptised none of you, unless Crispus and Gaius,
I thank God that no [one] of you I baptized only except Crispus and Gaius,
15 that no one may say that I have baptised unto my own name.
so that not anyone may say that into my name (you were baptized. *N(K)O*)
16 Yes, I baptised also the house of Stephanas; for the rest I know not if I have baptised any other.
I baptized now also the of Stephanas household; as to the rest not I know whether any other I baptized.
17 For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain.
Not for sent me Christ to baptize but to evangelise; not in wisdom of discourse, that not may be emptied of power the cross of the Christ.
18 For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God's power.
The message for of the cross to those indeed perishing foolishness is, to those however being saved to us power of God it is.
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and set aside the understanding of the understanding ones.
It has been written for: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.
20 Where [is the] wise? where scribe? where disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
Where [is the] wise? Where [the] scribe? Where [the] debater of the age this? Surely has made foolish God the wisdom of the world (this? *k*) (aiōn g165)
21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe.
Since for in the wisdom of God not knew the world through the wisdom God, was pleased God through the foolishness of the proclamation to save those believing;
22 Since Jews indeed ask for signs, and Greeks seek wisdom;
Seeing that both Jews (signs *N(K)O*) ask for and Greeks wisdom seek,
23 but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness;
we ourselves however preach Christ crucified, to [the] Jews indeed a stumbling block (to Gentiles *N(K)O*) however foolishness
24 but to those that [are] called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom.
to them however to those called, Jews both and to Greeks, Christ of God [the] power and of God [the] wisdom.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
For the foolishness of God wiser than men is and the weakness of God stronger than men (is. *k*)
26 For consider your calling, brethren, that [there are] not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born.
Consider for the calling of you, brothers, that not many wise according to flesh [were], not many powerful, not many of noble birth,
27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things;
But the foolish things of the world has chosen God that He may shame the wise and the weak things of the world chose God that He may shame the strong,
28 and the ignoble things of the world, and the despised, has God chosen, [and] things that are not, that he may annul the things that are;
and the low-born of the world and the [things] despised chose God, (and *ko*) the [things] not being, that the [things] being He may annul,
29 so that no flesh should boast before God.
so that not may boast all flesh before (God. *N(K)O*)
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who has been made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption;
Out of Him however you yourselves are in Christ Jesus, who has been made wisdom unto us from God, righteousness and also sanctification and redemption,
31 that according as it is written, He that boasts, let him boast in [the] Lord.
in order that even as it has been written: The [one] boasting in [the] Lord he should boast.
