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.

Lexham English Bible
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks himself to be wise among you in this age, let him become a fool, in order that he may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it is written, “The one who catches the wise in their craftiness,”[a] 20 and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.”[b] 21 So then, let no one boast in people. For all things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come, all things are yours, 23 and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
