1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Meshikha Yeshua by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
παυλος κλητος αποστολος {VAR1: ιησου χριστου } {VAR2: χριστου ιησου } δια θεληματος θεου και σωσθενης ο αδελφος
2 to the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Meshikha Yeshua, called to be saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Yeshua Meshikha in every place, both theirs and ours:
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 και ημων
3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua Meshikha.
χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο θεου πατρος ημων και κυριου ιησου χριστου
4 I always thank my God concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Meshikha Yeshua;
ευχαριστω τω θεω {VAR2: μου } παντοτε περι υμων επι τη χαριτι του θεου τη δοθειση υμιν εν χριστω ιησου
5 that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge;
οτι εν παντι επλουτισθητε εν αυτω εν παντι λογω και παση γνωσει
6 even as the testimony of Meshikha was confirmed in you:
καθως το μαρτυριον του χριστου εβεβαιωθη εν υμιν
7 so that you come behind in no gift; as you wait for our Lord Yeshua Meshikha to be revealed;
ωστε υμας μη υστερεισθαι εν μηδενι χαρισματι απεκδεχομενους την αποκαλυψιν του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου
8 who will also strengthen you to the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Yeshua Meshikha.
ος και βεβαιωσει υμας εως τελους ανεγκλητους εν τη ημερα του κυριου ημων ιησου [χριστου]
9 God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Yeshua Meshikha, our Lord.
πιστος ο θεος δι ου εκληθητε εις κοινωνιαν του υιου αυτου ιησου χριστου του κυριου ημων
10 Now I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Yeshua Meshikha, that all of you be in agreement, so that there may be no divisions among you, and to be united by the same mind and conviction.
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 has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.
εδηλωθη γαρ μοι περι υμων αδελφοι μου υπο των χλοης οτι εριδες εν υμιν εισιν
12 Now I mean this, that each one of you says, "I follow Paul," "I follow Apollos," "I follow Kipha," and, "I follow Meshikha."
λεγω δε τουτο οτι εκαστος υμων λεγει εγω μεν ειμι παυλου εγω δε απολλω εγω δε κηφα εγω δε χριστου
13 Is Meshikha divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?
μεμερισται ο χριστος μη παυλος εσταυρωθη υπερ υμων η εις το ονομα παυλου εβαπτισθητε
14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius,
ευχαριστω {VAR2: [τω θεω] } οτι ουδενα υμων εβαπτισα ει μη κρισπον και γαιον
15 so that no one should say that you had been baptized into my own name.
ινα μη τις ειπη οτι εις το εμον ονομα εβαπτισθητε
16 (Now I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other.)
εβαπτισα δε και τον στεφανα οικον λοιπον ουκ οιδα ει τινα αλλον εβαπτισα
17 For Meshikha sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of the Meshikha would not be made void.
ου γαρ απεστειλεν με χριστος βαπτιζειν αλλα ευαγγελιζεσθαι ουκ εν σοφια λογου ινα μη κενωθη ο σταυρος του χριστου
18 For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the 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 the discernment of the discerning I will nullify."
γεγραπται γαρ απολω την σοφιαν των σοφων και την συνεσιν των συνετων αθετησω
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn't God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
που σοφος που γραμματευς που συζητητης του αιωνος τουτου ουχι εμωρανεν ο θεος την σοφιαν του κοσμου (aiōn g165)
21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom did not know God, it was God's good pleasure through the foolishness of the 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 For Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom,
επειδη και ιουδαιοι σημεια αιτουσιν και ελληνες σοφιαν ζητουσιν
23 but we preach Meshikha crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to the non-Jews,
ημεις δε κηρυσσομεν χριστον εσταυρωμενον ιουδαιοις μεν σκανδαλον εθνεσιν δε μωριαν
24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Meshikha 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 man's, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's.
οτι το μωρον του θεου σοφωτερον των ανθρωπων εστιν και το ασθενες του θεου ισχυροτερον των ανθρωπων
26 For consider your calling, brothers, that not many were wise from a human perspective, not many powerful, not many of noble birth.
βλεπετε γαρ την κλησιν υμων αδελφοι οτι ου πολλοι σοφοι κατα σαρκα ου πολλοι δυνατοι ου πολλοι ευγενεις
27 But God chose the foolish of the world to shame the wise. And God chose the weak of the world to shame the strong.
αλλα τα μωρα του κοσμου εξελεξατο ο θεος ινα καταισχυνη τους σοφους και τα ασθενη του κοσμου εξελεξατο ο θεος ινα καταισχυνη τα ισχυρα
28 And God chose the lowly of the world, and the despised, what is considered to be nothing, to bring to nothing what is considered to be something,
και τα αγενη του κοσμου και τα εξουθενημενα εξελεξατο ο θεος {VAR1: [και] } τα μη οντα ινα τα οντα καταργηση
29 that no flesh might boast before God.
οπως μη καυχησηται πασα σαρξ ενωπιον του θεου
30 And because of him you are in Meshikha Yeshua, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
εξ αυτου δε υμεις εστε εν χριστω ιησου ος εγενηθη σοφια ημιν απο θεου δικαιοσυνη τε και αγιασμος και απολυτρωσις
31 so that, as it is written, "Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord."
ινα καθως γεγραπται ο καυχωμενος εν κυριω καυχασθω
