'Shame' in the Bible

But God has chosen the things which the world regards as foolish, in order to put its wise men to shame; and God has chosen the things which the world regards as destitute of influence, in order to put its powerful things to shame;

I am not writing all this to shame you, but I am offering you advice as my dearly-loved children.

And you, instead of mourning and removing from among you the man who has done this deed of shame, are filled with self-complacency!

I say this to put you to shame. Has it come to this, that there does not exist among you a single wise man competent to decide between a man and his brother,

Wake from this drunken fit; live righteous lives, and cease to sin; for some have no knowledge of God: I speak thus in order to move you to shame.
