GNT

1 παῦλος κλητὸς ἀπόστολος χριστοῦ ἰησοῦ διὰ θελήματος θεοῦ, καὶ σωσθένης ὁ ἀδελφός,

2 τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ τοῦ θεοῦ τῇ οὔσῃ ἐν κορίνθῳ, ἡγιασμένοις ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ, κλητοῖς ἁγίοις, σὺν πᾶσιν τοῖς ἐπικαλουμένοις τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ ἐν παντὶ τόπῳ, αὐτῶν καὶ ἡμῶν·

3 χάρις ὑμῖν καὶ εἰρήνη ἀπὸ θεοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν καὶ κυρίου ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ.

4 εὐχαριστῶ τῶ θεῶ μου πάντοτε περὶ ὑμῶν ἐπὶ τῇ χάριτι τοῦ θεοῦ τῇ δοθείσῃ ὑμῖν ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ,

5 ὅτι ἐν παντὶ ἐπλουτίσθητε ἐν αὐτῶ, ἐν παντὶ λόγῳ καὶ πάσῃ γνώσει,

6 καθὼς τὸ μαρτύριον τοῦ χριστοῦ ἐβεβαιώθη ἐν ὑμῖν,

7 ὥστε ὑμᾶς μὴ ὑστερεῖσθαι ἐν μηδενὶ χαρίσματι, ἀπεκδεχομένους τὴν ἀποκάλυψιν τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ·

8 ὃς καὶ βεβαιώσει ὑμᾶς ἕως τέλους ἀνεγκλήτους ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ἰησοῦ [χριστοῦ].

9 πιστὸς ὁ θεὸς δι᾽ οὖ ἐκλήθητε εἰς κοινωνίαν τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν.

10 παρακαλῶ δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, διὰ τοῦ ὀνόματος τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ, ἵνα τὸ αὐτὸ λέγητε πάντες, καὶ μὴ ᾖ ἐν ὑμῖν σχίσματα, ἦτε δὲ κατηρτισμένοι ἐν τῶ αὐτῶ νοῒ καὶ ἐν τῇ αὐτῇ γνώμῃ.

11 ἐδηλώθη γάρ μοι περὶ ὑμῶν, ἀδελφοί μου, ὑπὸ τῶν χλόης ὅτι ἔριδες ἐν ὑμῖν εἰσιν.

12 λέγω δὲ τοῦτο, ὅτι ἕκαστος ὑμῶν λέγει, ἐγὼ μέν εἰμι παύλου, ἐγὼ δὲ ἀπολλῶ, ἐγὼ δὲ κηφᾶ, ἐγὼ δὲ χριστοῦ.

13 μεμέρισται ὁ χριστός; μὴ παῦλος ἐσταυρώθη ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν, ἢ εἰς τὸ ὄνομα παύλου ἐβαπτίσθητε;

14 εὐχαριστῶ [τῶ θεῶ] ὅτι οὐδένα ὑμῶν ἐβάπτισα εἰ μὴ κρίσπον καὶ γάϊον,

15 ἵνα μή τις εἴπῃ ὅτι εἰς τὸ ἐμὸν ὄνομα ἐβαπτίσθητε.

16 ἐβάπτισα δὲ καὶ τὸν στεφανᾶ οἶκον· λοιπὸν οὐκ οἶδα εἴ τινα ἄλλον ἐβάπτισα.

17 οὐ γὰρ ἀπέστειλέν με χριστὸς βαπτίζειν ἀλλὰ εὐαγγελίζεσθαι, οὐκ ἐν σοφίᾳ λόγου, ἵνα μὴ κενωθῇ ὁ σταυρὸς τοῦ χριστοῦ.

18 ὁ λόγος γὰρ ὁ τοῦ σταυροῦ τοῖς μὲν ἀπολλυμένοις μωρία ἐστίν, τοῖς δὲ σῳζομένοις ἡμῖν δύναμις θεοῦ ἐστιν.

19 γέγραπται γάρ, ἀπολῶ τὴν σοφίαν τῶν σοφῶν, καὶ τὴν σύνεσιν τῶν συνετῶν ἀθετήσω.

20 ποῦ σοφός; ποῦ γραμματεύς; ποῦ συζητητὴς τοῦ αἰῶνος τούτου; οὐχὶ ἐμώρανεν ὁ θεὸς τὴν σοφίαν τοῦ κόσμου;

21 ἐπειδὴ γὰρ ἐν τῇ σοφίᾳ τοῦ θεοῦ οὐκ ἔγνω ὁ κόσμος διὰ τῆς σοφίας τὸν θεόν, εὐδόκησεν ὁ θεὸς διὰ τῆς μωρίας τοῦ κηρύγματος σῶσαι τοὺς πιστεύοντας.

22 ἐπειδὴ καὶ ἰουδαῖοι σημεῖα αἰτοῦσιν καὶ ἕλληνες σοφίαν ζητοῦσιν,

23 ἡμεῖς δὲ κηρύσσομεν χριστὸν ἐσταυρωμένον, ἰουδαίοις μὲν σκάνδαλον ἔθνεσιν δὲ μωρίαν,

24 αὐτοῖς δὲ τοῖς κλητοῖς, ἰουδαίοις τε καὶ ἕλλησιν, χριστὸν θεοῦ δύναμιν καὶ θεοῦ σοφίαν·

25 ὅτι τὸ μωρὸν τοῦ θεοῦ σοφώτερον τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐστίν, καὶ τὸ ἀσθενὲς τοῦ θεοῦ ἰσχυρότερον τῶν ἀνθρώπων.

26 βλέπετε γὰρ τὴν κλῆσιν ὑμῶν, ἀδελφοί, ὅτι οὐ πολλοὶ σοφοὶ κατὰ σάρκα, οὐ πολλοὶ δυνατοί, οὐ πολλοὶ εὐγενεῖς·

27 ἀλλὰ τὰ μωρὰ τοῦ κόσμου ἐξελέξατο ὁ θεὸς ἵνα καταισχύνῃ τοὺς σοφούς, καὶ τὰ ἀσθενῆ τοῦ κόσμου ἐξελέξατο ὁ θεὸς ἵνα καταισχύνῃ τὰ ἰσχυρά,

28 καὶ τὰ ἀγενῆ τοῦ κόσμου καὶ τὰ ἐξουθενημένα ἐξελέξατο ὁ θεός, τὰ μὴ ὄντα, ἵνα τὰ ὄντα καταργήσῃ,

29 ὅπως μὴ καυχήσηται πᾶσα σὰρξ ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ.

30 ἐξ αὐτοῦ δὲ ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἐν χριστῶ ἰησοῦ, ὃς ἐγενήθη σοφία ἡμῖν ἀπὸ θεοῦ, δικαιοσύνη τε καὶ ἁγιασμὸς καὶ ἀπολύτρωσις,

31 ἵνα καθὼς γέγραπται, ὁ καυχώμενος ἐν κυρίῳ καυχάσθω.

1  Paul³⁹⁷² called²⁸²² to be an apostle⁶⁵² of Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ through¹²²³ the will²³⁰⁷ of God,²³¹⁶ and²⁵³² Sosthenes⁴⁹⁸⁸ our brother,⁸⁰

2  Unto the³⁵⁸⁸ church¹⁵⁷⁷ of God²³¹⁶ which is⁵⁶⁰⁷ at¹⁷²² Corinth,²⁸⁸² to them that are sanctified³⁷ in¹⁷²² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus,²⁴²⁴ called²⁸²² to be saints,⁴⁰ with⁴⁸⁶² all³⁹⁵⁶ that in¹⁷²² every³⁹⁵⁶ place⁵¹¹⁷ call upon¹⁹⁴¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ name³⁶⁸⁶ of Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ our²²⁵⁷ Lord,²⁹⁶² both⁵⁰³⁷ theirs⁸⁴⁸ and²⁵³² ours:²²⁵⁷

3  Grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ be unto you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² peace,¹⁵¹⁵ from⁵⁷⁵ God²³¹⁶ our²²⁵⁷ Father,³⁹⁶² and²⁵³² from the Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ.⁵⁵⁴⁷

4  I thank²¹⁶⁸ my³⁴⁵⁰ God²³¹⁶ always³⁸⁴² on your behalf,^{4012 5216} for¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ of God²³¹⁶ which is given¹³²⁵ you⁵²¹³ by¹⁷²² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ;⁵⁵⁴⁷

5  That³⁷⁵⁴ in¹⁷²² every thing³⁹⁵⁶ ye are enriched⁴¹⁴⁸ by¹⁷²² him,⁸⁴⁶ in¹⁷²² all³⁹⁵⁶ utterance,³⁰⁵⁶ and²⁵³² in all³⁹⁵⁶ knowledge;¹¹⁰⁸

6  Even as²⁵³¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ testimony³¹⁴² of Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ was confirmed⁹⁵⁰ in¹⁷²² you:⁵²¹³

7  So that⁵⁶²⁰ ye^{5209 3361} come behind⁵³⁰² in¹⁷²² no³³⁶⁷ gift;⁵⁴⁸⁶ waiting for⁵⁵³ the³⁵⁸⁸ coming⁶⁰² of our²²⁵⁷ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ:⁵⁵⁴⁷

8  Who³⁷³⁹ shall also²⁵³² confirm⁹⁵⁰ you⁵²⁰⁹ unto²¹⁹³ the end,⁵⁰⁵⁶ that ye may be blameless⁴¹⁰ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ day²²⁵⁰ of our²²⁵⁷ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ.⁵⁵⁴⁷

9  God²³¹⁶ is faithful,⁴¹⁰³ by¹²²³ whom³⁷³⁹ ye were called²⁵⁶⁴ unto¹⁵¹⁹ the fellowship²⁸⁴² of his⁸⁴⁸ Son⁵²⁰⁷ Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ our²²⁵⁷ Lord.²⁹⁶²

10  Now¹¹⁶¹ I beseech³⁸⁷⁰ you,⁵²⁰⁹ brethren,⁸⁰ by¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ name³⁶⁸⁶ of our²²⁵⁷ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ,⁵⁵⁴⁷ that²⁴⁴³ ye all³⁹⁵⁶ speak³⁰⁰⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ same thing,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² that there be⁵⁶⁰⁰ no³³⁶¹ divisions⁴⁹⁷⁸ among¹⁷²² you;⁵²¹³ but¹¹⁶¹ that ye be⁵⁶⁰⁰ perfectly joined together²⁶⁷⁵ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ same⁸⁴⁶ mind³⁵⁶³ and²⁵³² in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ same⁸⁴⁶ judgment.¹¹⁰⁶

11  For¹⁰⁶³ it hath been declared¹²¹³ unto me³⁴²⁷ of⁴⁰¹² you,⁵²¹⁶ my³⁴⁵⁰ brethren,⁸⁰ by⁵²⁵⁹ them³⁵⁸⁸ which are of the house of Chloe,⁵⁵¹⁴ that³⁷⁵⁴ there are¹⁵²⁶ contentions²⁰⁵⁴ among¹⁷²² you.⁵²¹³

12  Now¹¹⁶¹ this⁵¹²⁴ I say,³⁰⁰⁴ that³⁷⁵⁴ every one¹⁵³⁸ of you⁵²¹⁶ saith,³⁰⁰⁴ I^{1473 3303} am¹⁵¹⁰ of Paul;³⁹⁷² and¹¹⁶¹ I¹⁴⁷³ of Apollos;⁶²⁵ and¹¹⁶¹ I¹⁴⁷³ of Cephas;²⁷⁸⁶ and¹¹⁶¹ I¹⁴⁷³ of Christ.⁵⁵⁴⁷

13  Is Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ divided?³³⁰⁷ was³³⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² crucified⁴⁷¹⁷ for⁵²²⁸ you?⁵²¹⁶ or²²²⁸ were ye baptized⁹⁰⁷ in¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ name³⁶⁸⁶ of Paul?³⁹⁷²

14  I thank²¹⁶⁸ God²³¹⁶ that³⁷⁵⁴ I baptized⁹⁰⁷ none³⁷⁶² of you,⁵²¹⁶ but¹⁵⁰⁸ Crispus²⁹²¹ and²⁵³² Gaius;¹⁰⁵⁰

15  Lest³³⁶³ any⁵¹⁰⁰ should say²⁰³⁶ that³⁷⁵⁴ I had baptized⁹⁰⁷ in¹⁵¹⁹ mine own¹⁶⁹⁹ name.³⁶⁸⁶

16  And¹¹⁶¹ I baptized⁹⁰⁷ also²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ household³⁶²⁴ of Stephanas:⁴⁷³⁴ besides,³⁰⁶³ I know¹⁴⁹² not³⁷⁵⁶ whether I baptized any^{1536 907} other.²⁴³

17  For¹⁰⁶³ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ sent⁶⁴⁹ me³¹⁶⁵ not³⁷⁵⁶ to baptize,⁹⁰⁷ but²³⁵ to preach the gospel:²⁰⁹⁷ not³⁷⁵⁶ with¹⁷²² wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ of words,³⁰⁵⁶ lest³³⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ cross⁴⁷¹⁶ of Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ should be made of none effect.²⁷⁵⁸

18  For¹⁰⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ preaching³⁰⁵⁶ of³⁵⁸⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ cross⁴⁷¹⁶ is²⁰⁷⁶ to them that perish^{622 3303} foolishness;³⁴⁷² but¹¹⁶¹ unto us²²⁵⁴ which³⁵⁸⁸ are saved⁴⁹⁸² it is²⁰⁷⁶ the power¹⁴¹¹ of God.²³¹⁶

19  For¹⁰⁶³ it is written,¹¹²⁵ I will destroy⁶²² the³⁵⁸⁸ wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ wise,⁴⁶⁸⁰ and²⁵³² will bring to nothing¹¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ understanding⁴⁹⁰⁷ of the³⁵⁸⁸ prudent.⁴⁹⁰⁸

20  Where⁴²²⁶ is the wise?⁴⁶⁸⁰ where⁴²²⁶ is the scribe?¹¹²² where⁴²²⁶ is the disputer⁴⁸⁰⁴ of this⁵¹²⁷ world?¹⁶⁵ hath not³⁷⁸⁰ God²³¹⁶ made foolish³⁴⁷¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ of this⁵¹²⁷ world?²⁸⁸⁹

21  For¹⁰⁶³ after that¹⁸⁹⁴ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ of God²³¹⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ world²⁸⁸⁹ by¹²²³ wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ knew¹⁰⁹⁷ not³⁷⁵⁶ God,²³¹⁶ it pleased²¹⁰⁶ God²³¹⁶ by¹²²³ the³⁵⁸⁸ foolishness³⁴⁷² of preaching²⁷⁸² to save⁴⁹⁸² them that believe.⁴¹⁰⁰

22  For¹⁸⁹⁴ the²⁵³² Jews²⁴⁵³ require¹⁵⁴ a sign,⁴⁵⁹² and²⁵³² the Greeks¹⁶⁷² seek after²²¹² wisdom:⁴⁶⁷⁸

23  But¹¹⁶¹ we²²⁴⁹ preach²⁷⁸⁴ Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ crucified,⁴⁷¹⁷ unto the Jews²⁴⁵³ a³³⁰³ stumblingblock,⁴⁶²⁵ and¹¹⁶¹ unto the Greeks¹⁶⁷² foolishness;³⁴⁷²

24  But¹¹⁶¹ unto them⁸⁴⁶ which are called,²⁸²² both⁵⁰³⁷ Jews²⁴⁵³ and²⁵³² Greeks,¹⁶⁷² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ the power¹⁴¹¹ of God,²³¹⁶ and²⁵³² the wisdom⁴⁶⁷⁸ of God.²³¹⁶

25  Because³⁷⁵⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ foolishness³⁴⁷⁴ of God²³¹⁶ is²⁰⁷⁶ wiser⁴⁶⁸⁰ than men;⁴⁴⁴ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ weakness⁷⁷² of God²³¹⁶ is²⁰⁷⁶ stronger²⁴⁷⁸ than men.⁴⁴⁴

26  For¹⁰⁶³ ye see⁹⁹¹ your⁵²¹⁶ calling,²⁸²¹ brethren,⁸⁰ how that³⁷⁵⁴ not³⁷⁵⁶ many⁴¹⁸³ wise men⁴⁶⁸⁰ after²⁵⁹⁶ the flesh,⁴⁵⁶¹ not³⁷⁵⁶ many⁴¹⁸³ mighty,¹⁴¹⁵ not³⁷⁵⁶ many⁴¹⁸³ noble,²¹⁰⁴ are called:

27  But²³⁵ God²³¹⁶ hath chosen¹⁵⁸⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ foolish things³⁴⁷⁴ of the³⁵⁸⁸ world²⁸⁸⁹ to²⁴⁴³ confound²⁶¹⁷ the³⁵⁸⁸ wise;⁴⁶⁸⁰ and²⁵³² God²³¹⁶ hath chosen¹⁵⁸⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ weak things⁷⁷² of the³⁵⁸⁸ world²⁸⁸⁹ to²⁴⁴³ confound²⁶¹⁷ the things which are mighty;²⁴⁷⁸

28  And²⁵³² base things³⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ world,²⁸⁸⁹ and²⁵³² things which are despised,¹⁸⁴⁸ hath God²³¹⁶ chosen,¹⁵⁸⁶ yea, and²⁵³² things³⁵⁸⁸ which are⁵⁶⁰⁷ not,³³⁶¹ to²⁴⁴³ bring to naught²⁶⁷³ things that are:⁵⁶⁰⁷

29  That³⁷⁰⁴ no^{3956 3361} flesh⁴⁵⁶¹ should glory²⁷⁴⁴ in his presence.^{1799 846}

30  But¹¹⁶¹ of¹⁵³⁷ him⁸⁴⁶ are²⁰⁷⁵ ye⁵²¹⁰ in¹⁷²² Christ⁵⁵⁴⁷ Jesus,²⁴²⁴ who³⁷³⁹ of⁵⁷⁵ God²³¹⁶ is made¹⁰⁹⁶ unto us²²⁵⁴ wisdom,⁴⁶⁷⁸ and⁵⁰³⁷ righteousness,¹³⁴³ and²⁵³² sanctification,³⁸ and²⁵³² redemption:⁶²⁹

31  That,²⁴⁴³ according as²⁵³¹ it is written,¹¹²⁵ He³⁵⁸⁸ that glorieth,²⁷⁴⁴ let him glory²⁷⁴⁴ in¹⁷²² the Lord.²⁹⁶²

Vul

1 Paulus vocatus Apostolus Jesu Christi per voluntatem Dei, et Sosthenes frater,

2 ecclesiæ Dei, quæ est Corinthi, sanctificatis in Christo Jesu, vocatis sanctis, cum omnibus qui invocant nomen Domini nostri Jesu Christi, in omni loco ipsorum et nostro.

3 Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Jesu Christo.

4 Gratias ago Deo meo semper pro vobis in gratia Dei, quæ data est vobis in Christo Jesu:

5 quod in omnibus divites facti estis in illo, in omni verbo, et in omni scientia.

6 Sicut testimonium Christi confirmatum est in vobis:

7 ita ut nihil vobis desit in ulla gratia, exspectantibus revelationem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,

8 qui et confirmabit vos usque in finem sine crimine, in die adventus Domini nostri Jesu Christi.

9 Fidelis Deus: per quem vocati estis in societatem filii ejus Jesu Christi Domini nostri.

10 Obsecro autem vos fratres per nomen Domini nostri Jesu Christi: ut idipsum dicatis omnes, et non sint in vobis schismata: sitis autem perfecti in eodem sensu, et in eadem sententia.

11 Significatum est enim mihi de vobis fratres mei ab iis, qui sunt Chloës, quia contentiones sunt inter vos.

12 Hoc autem dico, quod unusquisque vestrum dicit: Ego quidem sum Pauli: ego autem Apollo: ego vero Cephæ: ego autem Christi.

13 Divisus est Christus? numquid Paulus crucifixus est pro vobis? aut in nomine Pauli baptizati estis?

14 Gratias ago Deo, quod neminem vestrum baptizavi, nisi Crispum et Caium:

15 ne quis dicat quod in nomine meo baptizati estis.

16 Baptizavi autem et Stephanæ domum: ceterum nescio si quem alium baptizaverim.

17 Non enim misit me Christus baptizare, sed evangelizare: non in sapientia verbi, ut non evacuetur crux Christi.

18 Verbum enim crucis pereuntibus quidem stultitia est: iis autem qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis, Dei virtus est.

19 Scriptum est enim: Perdam sapientiam sapientium, et prudentiam prudentium reprobabo.

20 Ubi sapiens? ubi scriba? ubi conquisitor hujus sæculi? Nonne stultam fecit Deus sapientiam hujus mundi?

21 Nam quia in Dei sapientia non cognovit mundus per sapientiam Deum: placuit Deo per stultitiam prædicationis salvos facere credentes.

22 Quoniam et Judæi signa petunt, et Græci sapientiam quærunt:

23 nos autem prædicamus Christum crucifixum: Judæis quidem scandalum, gentibus autem stultitiam,

24 ipsis autem vocatis Judæis, atque Græcis Christum Dei virtutem, et Dei sapientia:

25 quia quod stultum est Dei, sapientius est hominibus: et quod infirmum est Dei, fortius est hominibus.

26 Videte enim vocationem vestram, fratres, quia non multi sapientes secundum carnem, non multi potentes, non multi nobiles:

27 sed quæ stulta sunt mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat sapientes: et infirma mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat fortia:

28 et ignobilia mundi, et contemptibilia elegit Deus, et ea quæ non sunt, ut ea quæ sunt destrueret:

29 ut non glorietur omnis caro in conspectu ejus.

30 Ex ipso autem vos estis in Christo Jesu, qui factus est nobis sapientia a Deo, et justitia, et sanctificatio, et redemptio:

31 ut quemadmodum scriptum est: Qui gloriatur, in Domino glorietur.
