For it has been revealed to me concerning you, my brethren, by those who are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

For it has been written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nought the understanding of the intelligent.

Where is the wise man? where is the scribe? where is the investigator of this age? has not God rendered the wisdom of the world foolishness?

but God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may confound the strong;

and God has chosen the base-born of the world, and those of no reputation, the things which are not, that He may set at nought the things which are,

in order that, as it has been written, Let him that glorieth glory in the Lord.

But, as has been written, the things which eye has not seen, and ear has not heard, and has not entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.

But God has revealed them to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it has been written. He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles the last, as exposed to death: that we may become a theater to the world, and to angels, and to men.

Cleanse away the old leaven, in order that you may be a new lump, as you are free from leaven; for Christ has truly become our Passover.

The wife has not the authority over her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband has not the authority over his own body, but the wife.

But I wish that all men were even as myself; but each one has his own gift from God, some one, and some another.

But I say to the rest, not the Lord, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is willing to live with him, let him not send her away.

And if any wife has an unbelieving husband, and he is willing to live with her, let her not send away her husband.

For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified by the brother. Since then your children are unclean; but now they are holy.

But if the unbeliever departs, let him or her depart; the brother or the sister has not been enslaved in such things. God has called you in peace.

If not as the Lord has imparted to each one, and as God has called each one, so let him or her walk. And thus I command in all the churches.

Is one called having been circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised: has one been called in uncircumcision? let him not get circumcised.

But if, indeed you may marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin may marry, she has not sinned; but such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you.

But whosoever stands firm in his heart, having no necessity, and has the right according to his own will, and has determined this in his heart, to keep his virgin, will do well.

A wife has been given so long a time as her husband may live; but if her husband may die, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

For in the law of Moses it has been written, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that plows. Is there a care to God for oxen,

So also the Lord has commanded those preaching the gospel to live of the gospel.

Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them were; as has been written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and arose up to play.

No temptation has overtaken you, except that which is human: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what you are able, but with the temptation, He will also make a way of escape, in order that you may be able to bear it.

But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory unto her: because the hair has been given to her for a covering.

It has been written in the law; I will speak to this people with other tongues and with the lips of others; and thus they will not hearken unto me, says the Lord.

Then what is it, brethren? When you may come together, each one has a psalm, has a lesson, has a revelation, has a tongue, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to edification.

Whether did the word of God come out from you? or has it reached unto you alone?

For, he has subordinated all things beneath his feet. But when he may say, that all things have been subordinated, it is evident that the One having subordinated all things to him is excepted.

As indeed it has been written; The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last man Adam, a life-creating spirit.

But when this corruptible may put on incorruption, and this mortal may put on immorality, then shall the word which has been written be fulfilled, Death is swallowed up in victory.
