我儕緣基督而愚、爾在基督而智、我弱爾強、爾榮我辱、

我儕緣基督若愚、爾宗基督若智、我儕則柔、而爾則強、我儕則辱、而爾則榮、

I also was with you in weakness and fear, and in great trembling,

And some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers as well were conversing with him. Some were saying,“ What could this scavenger of tidbits want to say?” Others,“ He seems to be a proclaimer of strange deities,”— because he was preaching Jesus and the resurrection.

Take care that no one deceives himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise.

While Paul was stating these things in his defense, Festus* said in a loud voice,“ Paul, you are out of your mind! Your great learning is driving you insane.”

For we rejoice when we ourselves are weak, but you are strong; this we also pray for, that you become mature.

For they say,“ His letters are weighty and strong, but his personal presence is unimpressive and his speech contemptible.”

“ Then they will hand you over to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.I speak as to wise people; you then, judge what I say.

“ Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.

Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some began to scoff, but others said,“ We shall hear from you again concerning this.”

And you will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved.“ But whenever they persecute you in one city, flee to the next; for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.“ A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a slave above his master.It is enough for the disciple that he may become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they insult the members of his household!

He was despised and abandoned by men, A man of great pain and familiar with sickness; And like one from whom people hide their faces, He was despised, and we had no regard for Him.

For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.For it is written:“ I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the understanding of those who have understanding, I will confound.”Where is the wise person? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has God not made foolish the wisdom of the world?

Now He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and viewed others with contempt:

since you are seeking proof of the Christ who speaks in me, who is not weak toward you, but mighty in you.For indeed He was crucified because of weakness, yet He lives because of the power of God. For we too are weak in Him, yet we will live with Him because of the power of God directed toward you.

Therefore let the one who thinks he stands watch out that he does not fall.

For you, being so wise, tolerate the foolish gladly.

Paul, called as an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

One who despises his neighbor lacks sense, But a person of understanding keeps silent.

Who is weak without my being weak? Who is led into sin without my intense concern?

Now Jehu went out to the servants of his master, and one said to him,“ Is everything well? Why did this crazy fellow come to you?” And he said to them,“ You know very well the man and his talk.”

I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to consume it. But even now you are not yet able,

And He has said to me,“ My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.Therefore I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in distresses, in persecutions, in difficulties, in behalf of Christ; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

But a natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Blessed are you when the people hate you, and when they exclude you, and insult you, and scorn your name as evil, on account of the Son of Man.

“ How can you say,‘ We are wise, And the Law of the Lord is with us’? But behold, the lying pen of the scribes Has made it into a lie.The wise men are put to shame, They are dismayed and caught; Behold, they have rejected the word of the Lord, So what kind of wisdom do they have?

You are already filled, you have already become rich, you have become kings without us; and indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you!

Therefore, the one who rejects this is not rejecting man, but the God who gives His Holy Spirit to you.

The days of punishment have come, The days of retribution have come; Let Israel know this! The prophet is a fool, The inspired person is insane, Because of the grossness of your wrongdoing, And because your hostility is so great.

If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory, and of God, rests upon you.

“ The one who listens to you listens to Me, and the one who rejects you rejects Me; but the one who rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me.”

For consider your calling, brothers and sisters, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble;but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong,and the insignificant things of the world and the despised God has chosen, the things that are not, so that He may nullify the things that are,

for I will show him how much he must suffer in behalf of My name.”
