Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
2 ᏫᏨᏲᏪᎳᏏ ᏗᏣᏁᎶᏗ ᎢᏣᏓᏡᎬ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏤᎵᎦ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎪᎵᏂᏗᏱ ᏥᏣᏓᏡᎦ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏥᏍᎦᎾ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎢᏰᏨᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎢᏳᏩᏂᏌᏛ, ᎡᏥᏯᏅᏛ ᎢᏣᏓᏅᏘ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏂᎥ ᏂᎦᎥ ᏕᎨᏌᏗᏒ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎢᎦᏤᎵ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏚᏙᎥ ᎠᏂᏁᎢᏍᏗᏍᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏧᎳᏉ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᎾᏤᎵᎦ ᎠᎴ ᎠᏴ ᎢᎦᏤᎵᎦ;
to the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:
3 ᎢᏣᏤᎵ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎬᏩᎦᏘᏯ ᎤᏓᏙᎵᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᏅᏩᏙᎯᏯᏛ ᎢᏣᎵᏍᎪᎸᏔᏁᎸᎯ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎢᎩᏙᏓ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ.
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I always thank my God concerning you, for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus;
5 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏤᏅᎢᏍᏔᏅᎯ ᏥᎩ ᏂᎦᎥ ᏄᏓᎴᏒᎢ — ᏂᎦᎥ ᏗᏕᏲᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᏂᎦᎥ ᎠᏕᏙᎥᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ;
that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge;
6 ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎠᏥᏃᎮᎸ ᎦᎪᎯᏳᏗ ᏁᏨᏁᎸᎢ;
even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:
7 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎡᏍᎦ ᏂᏦᎭᏍᎬᎾ ᎨᏒ ᏑᏓᎴᎩ ᎤᏅ ᎬᏩᎦᏘᏯ ᎤᏓᎵᏍᎪᎸᏓᏁᏗ ᎨᏒᎢ; ᎢᏥᎦᏖᏃᎲ ᎤᎷᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎢᎦᏤᎵ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ;
so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed;
8 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏨᏓᏣᎵᏂᎪᎯᏍᏔᏂ ᎤᎵᏍᏆᏗᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎬᏗᏍᎩ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎦᏰᏧᎢᏍᏙᏗ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎢᏳᎵᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᎾᎯᏳ ᎢᎦ ᎨᏎᏍᏗ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎤᏤᎵᎦ.
who will also strengthen you to the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏄᏓᎵᏓᏍᏛᎾ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏥᏯᏅᏛ ᏥᎩ ᎢᏣᎵᎪᏗᏱ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏪᏥ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎢᎦᏤᎵ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ.
God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord.
10 ᎾᏍᎩᏃ ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ ᎢᏨᏔᏲᏎᎭ ᏚᏙᎥ ᎬᏗᎭ ᎤᎬᏫᏳᎯ ᎢᎦᏤᎵᎦ ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎤᏠᏱᎭ ᎢᏥᏁᎢᏍᏗᏱ, ᎠᎴ ᏗᏣᎦᎴᏅᏗᏍᎩ ᏂᏤᎲᎾ ᎢᏳᎵᏍᏙᏗᏱ; ᎤᎧᎵᏨᎯᏉᏍᎩᏂ ᏗᏣᏚᏙᏙᏗᏱ ᎤᏠᏱᏉ ᎢᏣᏓᏅᏖᎵᏙᎲᎢ, ᎠᎴ ᎤᏠᏱᏉ ᏕᏧᎪᏗᏍᎬᎢ.
Now I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you be in agreement, so that there may be no divisions among you, and to be united by the same mind and conviction.
11 ᎥᎩᏃᏁᎸᎯᏰᏃ ᎢᎩ ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ ᏂᎯ ᎡᏥᏃᎮᏍᎬᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏠᎢ ᏚᏓᏘᎾᎥ ᎨᏥᏃᎮᏍᎬᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏗᏥᏲᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎢᏤᎲᎢ.
For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.
12 ᎯᎠ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏂᏥᏪᎭ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏥᏏᏴᏫᎭ ᎨᏒ ᎯᎠ ᏂᏥᏪᏍᎬᎢ, ᎠᏴ ᏉᎳ ᏥᏯᎵᎪᏁᎯ; ᎠᏴᏃ ᎠᏉᎳ; ᎠᏴᏃ ᏏᏆᏏ; ᎠᏴᏃ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ.
Now I mean this, that each one of you says, "I follow Paul," "I follow Apollos," "I follow Cephas," and, "I follow Christ."
13 ᎢᎸᏍᎩᏍᎪ ᎢᏯᏥᏛᎯ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ? ᏉᎳᏍᎪ ᏓᏓᎿᎭᏩᏍᏛ ᎠᎦᏛᏁ ᎢᏥᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ? ᎠᎴᏍᎪ ᏉᎳ ᏚᏙᎥ ᏕᏣᏬᏍᏔᏁᎢ?
Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?
14 ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏥᏯᎵᎡᎵᏤᎭ ᏂᎦᎵᏍᏙᏗᎭ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏤᎲ ᎩᎶ ᏂᏥᏯᏬᎥᎾ ᎨᏒ ᏟᏍᏆ ᎠᎴ ᎦᏯ ᎤᏅᏒ;
I thank God that I baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius,
15 ᎩᎶᏰᏃ ᎤᏩᏒᏉ ᏚᏙᎥ ᏓᏓᏬᏍᏗᎭ, ᏱᎬᏉᏎᎭ.
so that no one should say that you had been baptized into my own name.
16 ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᏉ ᏍᏗᏇᎾ ᏚᏓᏘᎾᎥ ᏕᎦᏥᏯᏬᎥᎩ; ᏅᏩᏓᎴᏃ ᎥᏝ ᏱᏆᏅᏔ ᏥᏯᏬᎥᎢ.
(Now I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other.)
17 ᎦᎶᏁᏛᏰᏃ ᎥᏝ ᏱᎩᏅᏎ ᏗᏆᏓᏬᏍᏗᏱ, ᎠᏆᎵᏥᏙᏗᏱᏍᎩᏂ ᎣᏍᏛ ᎧᏃᎮᏛ; ᎥᏝ ᎠᎵᏏᎾᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎦᏬᏂᎯᏍᏗᏱ ᎠᏋᏙᏗᏱ, ᎦᎶᏁᏛᏰᏃ ᎤᏤᎵ ᏧᏓᎿᎭᏩᏛ ᎠᏎᏉᏉ ᏱᏅᎦᎵᏍᏓ.
For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of the Christ would not be made void.
18 ᏓᏓᎿᎭᏩᏍᏛᏰᏃ ᎧᏃᎮᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎵᏍᎦᏁᏛ ᎤᏂᏰᎸᎭ ᎾᏍᎩ Ꮎ ᏧᏂᏲᎱᎯᏍᏗ ᏥᎩ; ᎠᏴᏍᎩᏂ ᎡᎩᏍᏕᎸᏗ ᏥᎩ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᎵᏂᎬᎬ ᎢᎩᏰᎸᎯ.
For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19 ᎯᎠᏰᏃ ᏂᎬᏅ ᎢᎦᏪᎳ, ᏓᏥᏛᏔᏂ ᎠᏂᏏᎾᏒ ᎠᏂᏏᎾᏌᏂ, ᎠᎴ ᎠᏎᏉ ᏅᏓᎦᏥᏴᏁᎵ ᎠᏁᏯᏔᎯ ᎠᏁᏯᏔᎲᎢ.
For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will nullify."
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn't God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
21 ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯᏰᏃ ᎠᏏᎾᏌᏂᏳ ᎨᏒ ᏥᏄᏩᏂᏌᏁ ᎡᎶᎯ ᎠᏂᏏᎾᏌᏅ ᎠᏅᏗᏍᎬ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏂᎬᏩᎦᏔᎲᎾ ᏥᎨᏎᎢ, ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎣᏏ ᎤᏰᎸᏁ ᎠᎵᏍᎦᏁᏛ ᎠᎵᏥᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏮᏙᏗᏱ ᏧᏍᏕᎸᏗᏱ ᎠᏃᎯᏳᎲᏍᎩ.
For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom did not know God, it was God's good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.
22 ᎠᏂᏧᏏᏰᏃ ᎤᏰᎸᏛ ᎠᏂᏔᏲᎯᎭ, ᎠᏂᎪᎢᏃ ᎠᏏᎾᏌᏂᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏂᏲᎭ;
For Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom,
23 ᎠᏴᏍᎩᏂ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᏓᏓᎿᎭᏩᏍᏛ ᎠᎦᏛᏅᎯ ᎣᏣᎵᏥᏙᎲᏍᎦ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏂᏧᏏ ᏧᏃᏕᏍᏗᏍᎩ, ᎠᏂᎪᎢᏃ ᎠᎵᏍᎦᏁᏛ ᎤᏂᏰᎸᎯ;
but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to the non-Jews,
24 Ꮎ-ᏍᎩᏂ ᎨᏥᏯᏅᏛ ᏥᎩ, ᎢᏧᎳᏉ ᎠᏂᏧᏏ ᎠᎴ ᎠᏂᎪᎢ, ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᎵᏂᎩᏗᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎠᏏᎾᏌᏂᏳ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏂᏰᎸᎯ.
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25 ᎠᎵᏍᎦᏁᏛᏰᏃ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎤᏟ ᎾᏏᎾᎯ ᎡᏍᎦᏉ ᏴᏫ; ᎠᎴ ᎠᏩᎾᎦᎳ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᎤᏤᎵ ᎤᏟ ᏄᎵᏂᎬᎦ ᎡᏍᎦᏉ ᏴᏫ.
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than man's, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's.
26 ᎢᏥᎪᏩᏗᎭᏰᏃ, ᎢᏓᎵᏅᏟ, ᏄᏍᏛ ᎡᏥᏯᏅᎲᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎥᏝ ᏳᏂᏣᏔ ᎠᏂᏏᎾᏌᏂ ᎤᏇᏓᎵ ᎤᎬᏩᎵ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎥᏝ ᎠᎴ ᏳᏂᏣᏔ ᏧᎾᎵᏂᎩᏛ, ᎥᏝ ᎠᎴ ᏳᏂᏣᏔ ᎨᏥᎸᏉᏗ;
For consider your calling, brothers, that not many were wise from a human perspective, not many mighty, not many of noble birth.
27 ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯᏍᎩᏂ ᏚᏑᏰᏒ ᎤᎾᎵᏍᎦᏂᏍᏛ ᎨᏥᏰᎸᎯ ᎠᏁ ᎡᎶᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏧᏕᎰᎯᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᎠᏂᎦᏔᎾᎢ; ᎠᎴ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏚᏑᏰᏒ ᎠᏂᏩᎾᎦᎳ ᎨᏥᏰᎸᎯ ᎠᏂ ᎡᎶᎯ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᏧᏕᎰᎯᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᏧᎾᎵᏂᎩᏛ;
But God chose the foolish of the world to shame the wise. And God chose the weak of the world to shame the strong.
28 ᎠᎴ ᎡᏍᎦ ᎤᏃᎭᏛ ᎠᏂ ᎡᎶᎯ, ᎠᎴ ᏅᎵᏌᎵ ᎨᏥᏰᎸᎯ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ ᏚᏑᏰᏒ, ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎾᏁᎲᎾ ᎨᏒᎢ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᏎᏉᏉ ᎢᏳᎾᎵᏍᏙᏗᏱ ᎾᏍᎩ ᏣᏁᎭ;
And God chose the lowly of the world, and the despised, what is considered to be nothing, to bring to nothing what is considered to be something,
29 ᎾᏍᎩ ᎩᎶ ᎤᏇᏓᎵ ᎨᏒ ᎤᏢᏈᏍᏗᏱ ᏂᎨᏒᎾ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᎦᏔᎲᎢ.
that no flesh might boast before God.
30 ᏂᎯᏍᎩᏂ ᎾᏍᎩ ᎢᏥᎾᏄᎪᏫᏒᎯ ᎢᎩ, ᏥᏌ ᎦᎶᏁᏛ ᎢᏳᏩᏂᏌᏛ, ᎾᏍᎩ ᎠᎦᏙᎥᎯᏍᏗ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᏚᏳᎪᏛ ᎨᏒ ᎠᎴ ᎾᏍᎦᏅᎾ ᎢᎬᏁᏗ ᎨᏒ, ᎠᎴ ᎠᎫᏴᏙᏗ ᎨᏒ, ᎠᏴ ᎢᎬᏁᎸᎯ ᏥᎩ ᎤᏁᎳᏅᎯ;
And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
31 ᎾᏍᎩᏯ ᎯᎠ ᏥᏂᎬᏅ ᏥᎪᏪᎳ, ᎩᎶ ᎠᏢᏈᏍᎨᏍᏗ ᏱᎰᏩ ᎠᏢᏆᏍᏙᏗᏍᎨᏍᏗ.
so that, as it is written, "Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord."
