But the foolish things of the world, has God chosen that he might shame the wise; and the weak things of the world has God chosen that he might shame things strong;

And the ignoble things of the world, and the despised things, has God chosen, and things not being, that the things being he might leave unemployed:

And the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: and he cannot know, for they are spiritually examined.

And the spiritual truly examines all things, and he is examined by no one.

So that neither he planting is anything, neither he watering; but God increasing.

And he planting and he watering are one: and each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.

According to the grace of God given to me, as a wise chief-architect, I have laid the foundation, and another builds upon. And let each see how he builds upon.

If the work of any shall remain which he built upon, he shall receive a reward.

If the work of any one shall be burned, he shall be caused damage: and he shall be saved; and so as by fire.

Let none completely deceive himself. If any think to be wise in this life, let him be foolish, that he may he wise.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it has been written, He seizing the wise in their deceptions.

For I know nothing by myself; but in this I have not been justified: and he examining me is the Lord.

And ye were puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he having done this work might be taken away from the midst of you.

And God also raised up the Lord, and us will he also raise up by his power.

Or know ye not that he joined to a harlot is one body? for they shall be, he says, they two into one flesh.

And he joined to the Lord is one spirit.

Flee fornication. Every sin which if a man do is without the body; but he committing fornication sins against his own body.

And the woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he assents to dwell with her, let her not send him away.

Each in the calling which he was called, in this let him remain.

Each, in what he was called, brethren, in this let him remain with God.

But I will you to be free from care. The unmarried cares for things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord:

And he married cares for the things of the world, how he shall please the wife.

The wife and virgin have been divided. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, that she might be holy also in body and spirit: and she married cares for the things of the world, how she shall please her husband.

And if any think to act unbecomingly towards his virgin, if she be past the vigor of youth, and so it ought to be, let him do what he will, he sins not; let them marry.

And he who has stood firmly fixed in heart; not having necessity, and has power concerning his own will, and has judged this in his heart to keep his virgin, does well.

So that he marrying does well; and he not marrying does better.

And if any one thinks to know anything, as yet he has known nothing as he ought to know.

Or does he say altogether on account of us? For it was written on account of us: that he ploughing ought to plough upon hope; and he grinding upon hope, to participate with his hope.

Therefore let him seeming to stand see that he fall not.

No temptation except human has taken you and God faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able; but with the temptation will he also make an escape, that ye may be able to bear.

Do we emulate the Lord? are we stronger than he?

For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night which he was delivered up, took bread:

And having given thanks, he brake, and said, Take ye, eat; this is my body, broken for you: this do ye for my remembrance.

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye announce the Lord's death till he come.

For he eating and drinking unworthily, eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

And now has God set the members each one of them in the body, as he would.

For he speaking in a tongue speaks not to men, but to God: (for none hears; and in the spirit he speaks mysteries.)

And he prophesying speaks to men for building the house, and entreaty, and encouragement.

And he speaking in a tongue builds himself; and he prophesying builds the church.

And I will ye all to speak with tongues, and rather that ye prophesy; for geater he prophesying, than he speaking with tongues, unless he interpret accurately, that the church receive building up.

As inanimate things giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if it give not a distinction to sounds, how shall the piping or harping be known?

So also ye, except by the tongue ye give an evident word, how shall the speaking be known? for ye shall be speaking into the air.

If therefore I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him speaking a foreigner, and he speaking a foreigner to me.

Wherefore he speaking in a tongue, let, him pray that he might interpret.

When if thou praise in the spirit, how shall he filling the place of the private individual say Amen at thy thanksgiving) since he knows not what thou sayest

And If all prophesy, and any unbelieving, or ignorant private individual come in, he is refuted by all, he is examined by all:

And so the hidden things of his heart are made manifest; and so having fallen upon the face, he will worship God, proclaiming that God is truly with you.

And that he was buried, and that he was raised the third day, according to the writings.

And that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve:

Then was he seen by above five hundred brethren once for all; of whom the most remain till now, and some also are laid to rest.

Then was he seen by James; then by all the sent.

And last of all exactly as an abortive, was he also seen by me.

And if Christ is proclaimed that he arose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no rising up of the dead?

And we are also found false witnesses of God; for we testified for God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not, if therefore the dead are not raised.

And now Was Christ raised from the dead, he was the first fruits of those having died.

Then the end, when he should deliver up the kingdom to God, and the Father; when he should leave unemployed every beginning and every authority and power.

For he must reign, till he put all enemies under his feet.

For he subjected all things under his feet. And when he said that all things have been subjected, it is manifest that without him having subjected all things to him.

But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

And God gives it a body as he would, and to each of the seed its own body.

According to one day of the sabbaths let each of you put by himself, treasuring up that which he is prospered in, that when I come there be no collections.

And if Timotheus come, see ye that he be with you fearlessly: for he works the work of the Lord, as I also.

Therefore no one should despise him: and send ye him forward in peace, that he might come to me: for I expect him with the brethren.

And concerning Apollos, the brother, I besought him much that he would come to you with the brethren: and the will was not altogether that he should come now; and he will come when he should have leisure.
