1 Corinthians 1

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

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

2 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, 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 be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

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 every thing you are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in 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 coming 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 shall also confirm you to the end, that you may be 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, by whom you were called to 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 beseech you, brothers, by 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 perfectly joined 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 declared to me of you, my brothers, by them which are of the house of Chloe, 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 this I say, that every one of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of 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 in 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, but Crispus and Gaius;

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

15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.

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

16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not 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 gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

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 preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but to us which are 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, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

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 disputer of this world? has not 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 after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that 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 the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

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

23 But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;

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

24 But to them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ 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, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

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 has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

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 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yes, and things which are not, to bring to nothing things that are:

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 glory in his presence.

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

30 But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom, 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, according as it is written, He that glories, let him glory in the Lord.

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