1 Corinthians 1:26-31

Tree of Life Version

²⁶ For you see your calling, brothers and sisters, that not many are wise according to human standards,^[a] not many are powerful, and not many are born well. ²⁷ Yet God chose the foolish things of the world so He might put to shame the wise; and God chose the weak things of the world so He might put to shame the strong; ²⁸ and God chose the lowly and despised things of the world, the things that are as nothing, so He might bring to nothing the things that are— ²⁹ so that no human might boast before God. ³⁰ But because of Him you are in Messiah Yeshua, who became to us wisdom from God and righteousness and holiness and redemption— ³¹ so that, just as it is written, “Let him who boasts, boast in Adonai.”^[b]
