1 Corinthians 1
1 Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ, through God’s will, —and Sosthenes the brother, —
Paulus vocatus Apostolus Iesu Christi per voluntatem Dei, et Sosthenes frater,
2 Unto the assembly of God which is in Corinth, sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, —with all who call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, in every place, —their Lord and ours:
Ecclesiæ Dei, quæ est Corinthi, sanctificatis in Christo Iesu, vocatis sanctis, cum omnibus, qui invocant nomen Domini nostri Iesu Christi, in omni loco ipsorum, et nostro.
3 Favour unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and Lord Jesus Christ.
Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Iesu Christo.
4 I give thanks unto my God, at all times, concerning you, by reason of the favour of God given unto you in Christ Jesus, —
Gratias ago Deo meo semper pro vobis in gratia Dei, quæ data est vobis in Christo Iesu:
5 That, in everything, ye have been enriched in him—in all discourse and in all knowledge;
quod in omnibus divites facti estis in illo, in omni verbo, et in omni scientia:
6 Even as, the witness of the Christ, hath been confirmed in you,
sicut testimonium Christi confirmatum est in vobis:
7 So that ye come short in no gift of favour, —ardently awaiting the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ:
ita ut nihil vobis desit in ulla gratia, expectantibus revelationem Domini nostri Iesu Christi,
8 Who will also confirm you unto the end, unaccusable in the day of our Lord Jesus [Christ]:
qui et confirmabit vos usque in finem sine crimine, in die adventus Domini nostri Iesu Christi.
9 Faithful, is God, through whom ye have been called into the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
Fidelis Deus: per quem vocati estis in societatem Filii eius, Iesu Christi Domini nostri.
10 But I beseech you, brethren, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, —that, the same thing, ye, all, be saying, and that there be not, among you, divisions; but that ye be fitly joined together—in the same mind, and in the same judgment.
Obsecro autem vos fratres per nomen Domini nostri Iesu Christi: ut idipsum dicatis omnes, et non sint in vobis schismata: sitis autem perfecti in eodem sensu, et in eadem sententia.
11 For it hath been signified unto me, concerning you, my brethren, —by them who are of [the household of] Chloe, —that there are strifes among you,
Significatum est enim mihi de vobis fratres mei ab iis, qui sunt Chloes, quia contentiones sunt inter vos.
12 Now I mean this, —that, each one of you, is saying—I, indeed, am of Paul, but, I, of Apollos, but, I, of Cephas, but, I, of Christ:
Hoc autem dico, quod unusquisque vestrum dicit: Ego quidem sum Pauli: ego autem Apollo: ego vero Cephæ: ego autem Christi.
13 The Christ is divided! Was, Paul, crucified for you? Or, into the name of Paul, were ye immersed?
Divisus est Christus? Numquid Paulus crucifixus est pro vobis? Aut in nomine Pauli baptizati estis?
14 I give thanks, that, none of you, did I immerse—save Crispus and Gaius,
Gratias ago Deo, quod neminem vestrum baptizavi, nisi Crispum, et Caium:
15 Lest any should say—into my own name, I immersed:
ne quis dicat quod in nomine meo baptizati estis.
16 Yea! I immersed the house of Stephanas also, —besides, I know not whether, anyone else, I immersed.
Baptizavi autem et Stephanæ domum: ceterum nescio si quem alium baptizaverim.
17 For Christ sent me not, to be immersing, but to be telling the good news, —not with wisdom of discourse, lest, void should be made, the cross of the Christ.
Non enim misit me Christus baptizare, sed evangelizare: non in sapientia verbi, ut non evacuetur crux Christi.
18 For, the discourse which concerneth the cross, unto them, indeed, who are perishing, is, foolishness; but, unto them who are being saved—unto us, it is, God’s power.
Verbum enim crucis pereuntibus quidem stultitia est: iis autem, qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis, Dei virtus est.
19 For it is written—I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and, the discernment of the discerning, will I set aside.
Scriptum est enim: Perdam sapientiam sapientium, et prudentiam prudentium reprobabo.
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? (aiōn g165)
Ubi sapiens? Ubi scriba? Ubi conquisitor huius sæculi? Nonne stultam fecit Deus sapientiam huius mundi? (aiōn g165)
21 For, seeing that, in the wisdom of God, the world, through its wisdom, did not get to knew God, God was well-pleased—through the foolishness of the thing proclaimed, to save them that believe.
Nam quia in Dei sapientia non cognovit mundus per sapientiam Deum: placuit Deo per stultitiam prædicationis salvos facere credentes.
22 Seeing that both, Jews for signs, do ask, and, Greeks for wisdom, do seek,
Quoniam et Iudæi signa petunt, et Græci sapientiam quærunt:
23 Whereas, we, proclaim a Christ who hath been crucified, —unto Jews, indeed, an occasion of stumbling, and, unto Gentiles, foolishness;
nos autem prædicamus Christum crucifixum: Iudæis quidem scandalum, Gentibus autem stultitiam,
24 But, unto the called themselves—both Jews and Greeks, Christ, God’s power, and, God’s wisdom.
ipsis autem vocatis Iudæis, atque Græcis Christum Dei virtutem, et Dei sapientia:
25 Because, God’s foolish thing, is, wiser than men, and, God’s weak thing, mightier than men.
quia quod stultum est Dei, sapientius est hominibus: et quod infirmum est Dei, fortius est hominibus.
26 For be looking at the calling of you, brethren, —that [there were] not many wise, according to flesh. Not many powerful, not many high-born:
Videte enim vocationem vestram fratres, quia non multi sapientes secundum carnem, non multi potentes, non multi nobiles:
27 On the contrary—the foolish things of the world, hath God chosen, that he might put to shame them who are wise, and, the weak things of the world, hath God chosen, that he might put to shame the things that are mighty,
sed quæ stulta sunt mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat sapientes: et infirma mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat fortia:
28 And, the low-born things of the world, and the things that are despised, hath God chosen, —[and] the things that are not, —that, the things that are, he might bring to nought;
et ignobilia mundi, et contemptibilia elegit Deus, et ea, quæ non sunt, ut ea quæ sunt destrueret:
29 So that no flesh should boast before God.
ut non glorietur omnis caro in conspectu eius.
30 But, of him, are, ye, in Christ Jesus, who hath been made wisdom unto us, from God, —both righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
Ex ipso autem vos estis in Christo Iesu, qui factus est nobis sapientia a Deo, et iustitia, et sanctificatio, et redemptio:
31 In order that, even as it is written—He that boasteth, in the Lord, let him boast.
ut quemadmodum scriptum est: Qui gloriatur, in Domino glorietur.
