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

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 and ours:

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

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

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

as the testimony about Christ was confirmed in you,

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

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

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

I exhort now you, brothers, by 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.

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

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

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

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

so that not anyone may say that into my name you were baptized.

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

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

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

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

Where [is the] wise? Where [the] scribe? Where [the] debater of the age this? Not has made foolish God the wisdom of the world?

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.

Seeing that both Jews signs ask for, and Greeks wisdom seek,

we however preach Christ crucified, to [the] Jewish indeed a stumbling block, to Gentiles however foolishness;

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

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

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