1 Corinthians 1 (NIV) New International Version

1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ-- their Lord and ours:
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
4 I always thank God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus.
5 For in him you have been enriched in every way--in all your speaking and in all your knowledge--
6 because our testimony about Christ was confirmed in you.
7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.
8 He will keep you strong to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
9 God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful.
10 I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought.
11 My brothers, some from Chloe's household have informed me that there are quarrels among you.
12 What I mean is this: One of you says, "I follow Paul"; another, "I follow Apollos"; another, "I follow Cephas"; still another, "I follow Christ."
13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptised into the name of Paul?
14 I am thankful that I did not baptise any of you except Crispus and Gaius,
15 so no-one can say that you were baptised into my name.
16 (Yes, I also baptised the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don't remember if I baptised anyone else.)
17 For Christ did not send me to baptise, but to preach the gospel--not with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19 For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."
20 Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
21 For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
22 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom,
23 but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling-block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
24 but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength.
26 Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth.
27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
28 He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things--and the things that are not--to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no-one may boast before him.
30 It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption.
31 Therefore, as it is written: "Let him who boasts boast in the Lord."

4 I thank G2168 V-PAI-1S my G3588 T-DSM God G2316 N-DSM always G3842 ADV on your behalf G4012 PREP , for G1909 PREP the G3588 T-DSF grace G5485 N-DSF of G3588 T-DSF God G2316 N-GSM which is given G1325 V-APP-DSF you G5213 P-2DP by G1722 PREP Jesus G2424 N-DSM Christ G5547 N-DSM ;
5 That G3754 CONJ in G1722 PREP every thing G3956 A-DSN ye are enriched G4148 V-API-2P by G1722 PREP him G846 P-DSM , in G1722 PREP all G3956 A-DSM utterance G3056 N-DSM , and G2532 CONJ in all G3956 A-DSF knowledge G1108 N-DSF ;
6 Even as G2531 ADV the G3588 T-NSN testimony G3142 N-NSN of Christ G5547 N-GSM was confirmed G950 V-API-3S in G1722 PREP you G5213 P-2DP :

8 Who G3739 R-NSM shall also G2532 CONJ confirm G950 V-FAI-3S you G5209 P-2AP unto G2193 CONJ the end G5056 N-GSN , that ye may be blameless G410 A-APM in G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSF day G2250 N-DSF of G3588 T-GSM our G3588 T-GSM Lord G2962 N-GSM Jesus G2424 N-GSM Christ G5547 N-GSM .
9 God G2316 N-NSM is faithful G4103 A-NSM , by G1223 PREP whom G3739 R-GSM ye were called G2564 V-API-2P unto G1519 PREP the fellowship G2842 N-ASF of G3588 T-GSM his G3588 T-GSM Son G5207 N-GSM Jesus G2424 N-GSM Christ G5547 N-GSM our G3588 T-GSM Lord G2962 N-GSM .
10 Now G1161 CONJ I beseech G3870 V-PAI-1S you G5209 P-2AP , brethren G80 N-VPM , by G1223 PREP the G3588 T-GSN name G3686 N-GSN of G3588 T-GSM our G3588 T-GSM Lord G2962 N-GSM Jesus G2424 N-GSM Christ G5547 N-GSM , that G2443 CONJ ye all G3956 A-NPM speak G3004 V-PAS-2P the G3588 T-ASN same thing G846 P-ASN , and G2532 CONJ that there be G5600 V-PXS-3S no G3361 PRT-N divisions G4978 N-NPN among G1722 PREP you G5213 P-2DP ; but G1161 CONJ that ye be G5600 V-PXS-2P perfectly joined together G2675 V-RPP-NPM in G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSM same G846 P-DSM mind G3563 N-DSM and G2532 CONJ in G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSF same G846 P-DSF judgment G1106 N-DSF .
11 For G1063 CONJ it hath been declared G1213 V-API-3S unto me G3427 P-1DS of G4012 PREP you G5216 P-2GP , my G3450 P-1GS brethren G80 N-VPM , by G5259 PREP them G3588 T-GPM which G3588 T-GPM are of G3588 T-GPM the G3588 T-GPM house of Chloe G5514 N-GSF , that G3754 CONJ there are G1526 V-PXI-3P contentions G2054 N-NPF among G1722 PREP you G5213 P-2DP .
12 Now G1161 CONJ this G5124 D-ASN I say G3004 V-PAI-1S , that G3754 CONJ every one G1538 A-NSM of you G5216 P-2GP saith G3004 V-PAI-3S , I G1473 P-1NS am G1510 V-PXI-1S of Paul G3972 N-GSM ; and G1161 CONJ I G1473 P-1NS of Apollos G625 N-GSM ; and G1161 CONJ I G1473 P-1NS of Cephas G2786 N-GSM ; and G1161 CONJ I G1473 P-1NS of Christ G5547 N-GSM .
13 Is Christ G5547 N-NSM divided G3307 V-RPI-3S ? was G3361 PRT-N Paul G3972 N-NSM crucified G4717 V-API-3S for G5228 PREP you G5216 P-2GP ? or G2228 PRT were ye baptized G907 V-API-2P in G1519 PREP the G3588 T-ASN name G3686 N-ASN of Paul G3972 N-GSM ?
14 I G3588 T-DSM thank G2168 V-PAI-1S God G2316 N-DSM that G3754 CONJ I baptized G907 V-AAI-1S none G3762 A-ASM of you G5216 P-2GP , but G1508 Crispus G2921 N-ASM and G2532 CONJ Gaius G1050 N-ASM ;
15 Lest G3363 any G5100 X-NSM should say G2036 V-2AAS-3S that G3754 CONJ I had baptized G907 V-AAI-1S in G1519 PREP mine own G1699 S-1ASN name G3686 N-ASN .
16 And G1161 CONJ I baptized G907 V-AAI-1S also G2532 CONJ the G3588 T-ASM household G3624 N-ASM of Stephanas G4734 N-GSM : besides G3063 A-ASN , I know G1492 V-RAI-1S not G3756 PRT-N whether I baptized any G1536 other G243 A-ASM .
17 For G1063 CONJ Christ G5547 N-NSM sent G649 V-AAI-3S me G3165 P-1AS not G3756 PRT-N to baptize G907 V-PAN , but G235 CONJ to preach the gospel G2097 V-PMN : not G3756 PRT-N with G1722 PREP wisdom G4678 N-DSF of words G3056 N-GSM , lest G3363 the G3588 T-NSM cross G4716 N-NSM of Christ G5547 N-GSM should be made of none effect G2758 V-APS-3S .
18 For G1063 CONJ the G3588 T-NSM preaching G3056 N-NSM of G3588 T-NSM the G3588 T-GSM cross G4716 N-GSM is G2076 V-PXI-3S to them that perish G622 V-PEP-DPM foolishness G3472 N-NSF ; but G1161 CONJ unto us G2254 P-1DP which G3588 T-DPM are saved G4982 V-PPP-DPM it is G2076 V-PXI-3S the power G1411 N-NSF of God G2316 N-GSM .
19 For G1063 CONJ it is written G1125 V-RPI-3S , I will destroy G622 V-FAI-1S the G3588 T-ASF wisdom G4678 N-ASF of G3588 T-GPM the G3588 T-GPM wise G4680 A-GPM , and G2532 CONJ will bring to nothing G114 V-FAI-1S the G3588 T-ASF understanding G4907 N-ASF of G3588 T-GPM the G3588 T-GPM prudent G4908 A-GPM .
20 Where G4226 PRT-I is the wise G4680 A-NSM ? where G4226 PRT-I is the scribe G1122 N-NSM ? where G4226 PRT-I is the disputer G4804 N-NSM of G3588 T-GSM this G3588 T-GSM world G165 N-GSM ? hath not G3780 PRT-I God G2316 N-NSM made foolish G3471 V-AAI-3S the G3588 T-ASF wisdom G4678 N-ASF of G3588 T-GSM this G3588 T-GSM world G2889 N-GSM ?
21 For G1063 CONJ after that G1894 CONJ in G1722 PREP the G3588 T-DSF wisdom G4678 N-DSF of God G2316 N-GSM the G3588 T-NSM world G2889 N-NSM by G1223 PREP wisdom G4678 N-GSF knew G1097 V-2AAI-3S not G3756 PRT-N God G2316 N-ASM , it G3588 T-NSM pleased G2106 V-AAI-3S God G2316 N-NSM by G1223 PREP the G3588 T-GSF foolishness G3472 N-GSF of preaching G2782 N-GSN to save G4982 V-AAN them that believe G4100 V-PAP-APM .
22 For G1894 CONJ the G2532 CONJ Jews G2453 A-NPM require G154 V-PAI-3P a sign G4592 N-ASN , and G2532 CONJ the Greeks G1672 N-NPM seek after G2212 V-PAI-3P wisdom G4678 N-ASF :
23 But G1161 CONJ we G2249 P-1NP preach G2784 V-PAI-1P Christ G5547 N-ASM crucified G4717 V-RPP-ASM , unto the Jews G2453 A-DPM a G3303 PRT stumblingblock G4625 N-ASN , and G1161 CONJ unto the Greeks G1672 N-DPM foolishness G3472 N-ASF ;
24 But G1161 CONJ unto them G3588 T-DPM which are called G2822 A-DPM , both G5037 PRT Jews G2453 A-DPM and G2532 CONJ Greeks G1672 N-DPM , Christ G5547 N-ASM the power G1411 N-ASF of God G2316 N-GSM , and G2532 CONJ the wisdom G4678 N-ASF of God G2316 N-GSM .
25 Because G3754 CONJ the G3588 T-NSN foolishness G3474 A-NSN of God G2316 N-GSM is G2076 V-PXI-3S wiser G4680 A-NSN-C than men G444 N-GPM ; and G2532 CONJ the G3588 T-NSN weakness G772 A-NSN of God G2316 N-GSM is G2076 V-PXI-3S stronger G2478 A-NSN-C than men G444 N-GPM .
26 For G1063 CONJ ye see G991 V-PAI-2P your G3588 T-ASF calling G2821 N-ASF , brethren G80 N-VPM , how that G3754 CONJ not G3756 PRT-N many G4183 A-NPM wise men G4680 A-NPM after G2596 PREP the flesh G4561 N-ASF , not G3756 PRT-N many G4183 A-NPM mighty G1415 A-NPM , not G3756 PRT-N many G4183 A-NPM noble G2104 A-NPM , are called :
27 But G235 CONJ God G2316 N-NSM hath chosen G1586 V-AMI-3S the G3588 T-APN foolish things G3474 A-APN of G3588 T-GSM the G3588 T-GSM world G2889 N-GSM to G2443 CONJ confound G2617 V-PAS-3S the G3588 T-APM wise G4680 A-APM ; and G2532 CONJ God G2316 N-NSM hath chosen G1586 V-AMI-3S the G3588 T-APN weak things G772 A-APN of G3588 T-GSM the G3588 T-GSM world G2889 N-GSM to G2443 CONJ confound G2617 V-PAS-3S the things which are mighty G2478 A-APN ;
28 And G2532 CONJ base things G36 A-APN of G3588 T-GSM the G3588 T-GSM world G2889 N-GSM , and G2532 CONJ things which are despised G1848 V-RPP-APN , hath God G2316 N-NSM chosen G1586 V-AMI-3S , yea , and G2532 CONJ things G3588 T-GSM which G3588 T-APN are G5607 V-PXP-APN not G3361 PRT-N , to G2443 CONJ bring to naught G2673 V-AAS-3S things that are G5607 V-PXP-APN :
29 That G3704 ADV no G3956 A-NSF flesh G4561 N-NSF should glory G2744 V-ADS-3S in his presence G1799 ADV .
30 But G1161 CONJ of G1537 PREP him G846 P-GSM are G2075 V-PXI-2P ye G5210 P-2NP in G1722 PREP Christ G5547 N-DSM Jesus G2424 N-DSM , who G3739 R-NSM of G575 PREP God G2316 N-GSM is made G1096 V-AOI-3S unto us G2254 P-1DP wisdom G4678 N-NSF , and G5037 PRT righteousness G1343 N-NSF , and G2532 CONJ sanctification G38 N-NSM , and G2532 CONJ redemption G629 N-NSF :
31 That G2443 CONJ , according as G2531 ADV it is written G1125 V-RPI-3S , He G3588 T-NSM that glorieth G2744 V-PNP-NSM , let him glory G2744 V-PNM-3S in G1722 PREP the Lord G2962 N-DSM .
