| 1 | Paul, a called ambassador of Christ Yahshua, by the will of Yahweh, and Sosthenes the brother, |
| 2 | to the assembly of Yahweh that is in Korinth, having been sanctified in Christ Yahshua, called saints, with all those calling themselves by the name of our Prince Yahshua Christ in each place, theirs and ours: |
| 3 | favor to you and peace from Yahweh our Father and Prince Yahshua Christ. |
| 4 | I thank my God at all times concerning you, in reference to the favor of Yahweh that is being given to you among the number of Christ Yahshua, |
| 5 | seeing that in all you have been enriched in Him, in all thought and all knowledge, |
| 6 | just as the proof of the Anointed has been confirmed in you, |
| 7 | consequently you are not to be wanting in even one favor, anxiously expecting the revelation of our Prince, Yahshua Christ, |
| 8 | who will also secure you until fulfillment, void of offense in the day of our Prince, Yahshua Christ. |
| 9 | Trustworthy is Yahweh, by whom you have been called into partnership with His Son, Yahshua Christ our Prince. |
| 10 | Now I encourage you, brethren, by the name of our Prince Yahshua Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and there may not be divisions among you; but that you are disciplined in the same mind and in the same purpose. |
| 11 | It has been disclosed to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of the house of Chloe, that there is contention among you. |
| 12 | Now I say this: that each of you say, 'so I am of Paul', 'but I am of Apollos', 'but I am of Kephas', 'and I of Christ'. |
| 13 | Have the Anointed been divided? Has Paul been crucified on your behalf? Or have you been immersed in the name of Paul? |
| 14 | I thank Yahweh that not one of you had I immersed, except Krispos and Gaios, |
| 15 | that not one may say that into my name have you been immersed. |
| 16 | Then I had also immersed the house of Stephanas; I know not any other remaining that I had immersed. |
| 17 | Christ sent me not to immerse, but to announce the good message; not in wisdom of speech, that the cross of Christ be left empty. |
| 18 | (For the account of the cross is folly to those who are going to die, but to those who are being preserved, to us, it is the power of Yahweh.) |
| 19 | Indeed it is written, "I will destroy the cunning of the shrewd, and the understanding of the sagacious I will set aside". |
| 20 | Where is the cunning? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Did Yahweh not make foolish the wisdom of the Society? |
| 21 | Since indeed in the wisdom of Yahweh, the Society does not know Yahweh through wisdom, Yahweh has been pleased by the folly of the proclamation to preserve those that are believing. |
| 22 | Then since Judaeans demand signs, and Greeks seek wisdom, |
| 23 | but we proclaim Christ crucified, to Judaeans indeed a trap, and to heathens folly; |
| 24 | but to those the called, both Judaeans and Greeks, anointed of Yahweh power and of Yahweh wisdom, |
| 25 | seeing that the folly of Yahweh is wiser than mankind, and the weakness of Yahweh is stronger than mankind. |
| 26 | Indeed you see your calling, brethren, since not many are wise in accordance with the flesh, not many are powerful, not many are noble. |
| 27 | But Yahweh has chosen the foolish of the Society, in order that He disgrace the cunning; and Yahweh has chosen the feeble of the Society, that He disgrace the strong; |
| 28 | and the low born of the Society, and the despised, Yahweh has chosen: those that are not in order that He may annul those that are; |
| 29 | so that not any flesh shall boast in the presence of Yahweh. |
| 30 | Moreover, from of Him you are in Christ Yahshua, who has become to us wisdom from Yahweh, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption; |
| 31 | in order that, just as it is written, "He who is boasting, in Yahweh he must boast." |
