For the Jews ask for a sign, and the Greeks seek for wisdom;

but we preach Christ crucified; to the Jews, indeed, a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks, foolishness:

but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ, the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

And to the Jews, I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews: to those who are under law, as under law, (not being myself under law,) that I might gain those who are under law;

Give no occasion for stumbling, either to the Jews, or to the Greeks, or to the church of God;

For by one Spirit we all were immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and we all have been made to drink of one Spirit.
