1 Corinthians 1:27-29

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁷ Instead, God chose to use things that people think are silly. He did this so that clever people would be ashamed. Yes, God chose to use things that people think are weak. He did this so that powerful people would be ashamed. ²⁸ God chose to use things that people think are useless. People who belong to this world do not like those things. They think that they have no value. God did this so that the things that seem important would become unimportant.

²⁹ Because of all this, nobody can be proud of themselves in front of God.
