Where the wise? where the scribe? where the seekers together of this life has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

For since in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, God was contented by the foolishness of proclaiming to save them believing.

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:

Which none of the rulers of this world knew: for if they had known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

And we have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit from God; that we might know things bestowed upon us as a gift by God.

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

Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or about to be; all are yours;

For I think that God has exhibited us the last sent, as exposed to death; for we were a theatre to the world, and to messengers, and to men.

Being defamed, we entreat: as the filth of the world were we become, the offscouring of all until now.

And not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the rapacious, or idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

Know ye not that the holy ones shall judge the world? and if the world be judged by you, are ye unworthy of the least judgments?

And they using this world, as not using; for the form of this world passes away.

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.

Concerning food therefore of sacrifices to idols, we know that an idol nothing in the world, and that none other God but one.

And being judged, we are corrected of the Lord, lest we be condemned with the world.

If perchance, such kind of voices be in the world, and none of them speechless.
