因为你们做为聪明人，乐意容忍愚妄的人！

你们既是精明人，就能甘心忍耐愚妄人。

你们是聪明人，竟能甘心容忍愚蠢人！

你们是聪明人，竟能甘心容忍愚蠢人！

因为你们这些聪明人竟然甘愿忍受那些傻瓜，

你们那么精明，竟然乐意容忍愚昧的人。

你們既是精明人，就能甘心忍耐愚妄人。

你們是聰明人，竟能甘心容忍愚蠢人！

你們是聰明人，竟能甘心容忍愚蠢人！

因為你們這些聰明人竟然甘願忍受那些傻瓜，

你們那麼精明，竟然樂意容忍愚昧的人。

你們既然精明，竟喜歡容忍糊塗人！

因為你們做為聰明人，樂意容忍愚妄的人！

爾既為智、於愚者則欣然容之、

爾固智者、見人之狂、淡然聽之、

爾既為智者、則甘心容彼狂者、

蓋爾明哲、固能優容狂妄之徒；

You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise!

You are so wise! You gladly put up with fools!

For you gladly bear with fools, being wise yourselves!

After all, you think you are so wise, but you enjoy putting up with fools!

For you, being so wise, gladly put up with fools!

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

For you put up with fools gladly, since you yourselves are wise!

For ye bear with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.

For you, being so wise, gladly put up with fools!

For ye suffer fools gladly, seeing ye[ yourselves] are wise.

For since you are so wise, you put up with fools gladly.

For you bear with the foolish gladly, being wise.

我们为基督的缘故是愚拙的，你们在基督里倒是聪明的；我们软弱，你们倒强壮；你们有荣耀，我们倒不受尊重。

关于祭过偶像的食物，我们知道“我们都有知识。”知识使人自我膨胀，但是爱能造就人。

我就像对聪明人在说话；我所说的，你们应当自己判断。

因为你说‘我是富有的；我发了财，什么都不缺’，却不知道你是可悲的、可怜的、贫穷的、瞎眼的、赤身的。
