1 Corinthians 3:18-23
Legacy Standard Bible
18 (A)Let no man deceive himself. (B)If any man among you thinks that he is wise in (C)this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise. 19 For (D)the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, “He is (E)the one who catches the wise in their craftiness”; 20 and again, “(F)The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are useless.” 21 So then (G)let no one boast in men. For (H)all things belong to you, 22 (I)whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or (J)life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you, 23 and (K)you belong to Christ, and (L)Christ belongs to God.

1 Corinthians 3:18-23
Common English Bible
18 Don’t fool yourself. If some of you think they are worldly-wise, then they should become foolish so that they can become wise. 19 This world’s wisdom is foolishness to God. As it’s written, He catches the wise in their cleverness.[a] 20 And also, The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are silly.[b] 21 So then, no one should brag about human beings. Everything belongs to you— 22 Paul, Apollos, Cephas, the world, life, death, things in the present, things in the future—everything belongs to you, 23 but you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
