1 Corinthians 1

1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

Paul a called apostle of Christ Jesus through [the] will of God and Sosthenes the brother

2 to the assembly of God which is at Corinth—those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs and ours:

To the church of God which is being in Corinth, sanctified in Christ Jesus called holy, together with all those calling on the name of the Lord of us Jesus Christ in every place, both theirs (then *k) and ours:

3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Grace to you and peace from God Father of us and [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

4 I always thank my God concerning you for the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus,

I thank the God of mine always concerning you for the grace of God which having been given you in Christ Jesus

5 that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge—

for in everything you have been enriched in Him in all speech and in all knowledge,

6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you—

even as the testimony about Christ was confirmed in you,

7 so that you come behind in no gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,

so as for you not to be lacking in not one gift eagerly awaiting the revelation of the Lord of us Jesus Christ;

8 who will also confirm you until the end, blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

who also will sustain you to [the] end blameless in the day of the Lord of us Jesus Christ.

9 God is faithful, through whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Faithful [is] God, through whom you were called into fellowship with the Son of Him Jesus Christ the Lord of us.

10 Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

I exhort now you, brothers, through the name of the Lord of us Jesus Christ that the same thing you may speak all and not there may be among you divisions, you may be however knit together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

11 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.

It was shown for to me concerning you, brothers of mine, by those of Chloe that quarrels among you there are.

12 Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”

I mean now this, that each of you says; I myself indeed am of Paul, I myself however of Apollos, I myself however of Cephas, I myself however of Christ.

13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?

Has been divided Christ? Surely not Paul was crucified for you? Or into the name of Paul were you baptized?

14 I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

I thank God that no [one] of you I baptized only except Crispus and Gaius,

15 so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.

so that not anyone may say that into my name (you were baptized. *N+KO)

16 (I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptized any other.)

I baptized now also the of Stephanas household; as to the rest not I know whether any other I baptized.

17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

Not for sent me Christ to baptize but to evangelise; not in wisdom of discourse, that not may be emptied of power the cross of the Christ.

18 For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

The message for of the cross to those indeed perishing foolishness is, to those however being saved to us power of God it is.

19 For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”

It has been written for: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.

20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world? (aiōn g165)

Where [is the] wise? Where [the] scribe? Where [the] debater of the age this? Surely has made foolish God the wisdom of the world (this? *k) (aiōn g165)

21 For seeing that in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom didn’t know God, it was God’s good pleasure through the foolishness of the preaching to save those who believe.

Since for in the wisdom of God not knew the world through the wisdom God, was pleased God through the foolishness of the proclamation to save those believing;

22 For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,

Seeing that both Jews (signs *N+KO) ask for and Greeks wisdom seek,

23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks,

we ourselves however preach Christ crucified, to [the] Jews indeed a stumbling block (to Gentiles *N+KO) however foolishness

24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;

to them however to those called, Jews both and to Greeks, Christ of God [the] power and of God [the] wisdom.

25 because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

For the foolishness of God wiser than men is and the weakness of God stronger than men (is. *k)

26 For you see your calling, brothers, that not many are wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, and not many noble;

Consider for the calling of you, brothers, that not many wise according to flesh [were], not many powerful, not many of noble birth,

27 but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world that he might put to shame the things that are strong.

But the foolish things of the world has chosen God that He may shame the wise and the weak things of the world chose God that He may shame the strong,

28 God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that don’t exist, that he might bring to nothing the things that exist,

and the low-born of the world and the [things] despised chose God, (and *ko) the [things] not being, that the [things] being He may annul,

29 that no flesh should boast before God.

so that not may boast all flesh before (God. *N+KO)

30 Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,

Out of Him however you yourselves are in Christ Jesus, who has been made wisdom unto us from God, righteousness and also sanctification and redemption,

31 that, as it is written, “He who boasts, let him boast in the Lord.”

in order that even as it has been written: The [one] boasting in [the] Lord he should boast.
