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. And since the Jews ask a sign, and the Greeks seek wisdom: And we proclaim Christ crucified, to the Jews truly a stumbling-block, and to the Greeks foolishness; And to these the called, to both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and wisdom of God. For the foolish thing of God is wiser than men; and the weak thing of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many powerful, not, many well born: 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 my word and my proclaiming not in persuasible words of man's wisdom, but in manifestation of the Spirit and of power That your faith might not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. But we speak wisdom among the perfected: and the wisdom not of this life, nor of the rulers of this life, they being left unemployed: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, hidden, which God determined beforehand, before the times to our glory: Which none of the rulers of this world knew: for if they had known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But as has been written. Which the eye saw not, and the ear heard not, and upon the heart of man it came not up, what things God has prepared for them loving him. And God has revealed to us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, and the deep things of God. For who of men knows the things of men except the spirit of man in him? so also the things of God no one knows, except the Spirit of God. 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. Which also we speak, not in words taught of man's wisdom, but in them taught of the Holy Spirit; examining spiritual things by spiritual. 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.
