⁸ which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight

¹² saying with a loud voice,

²⁵ to ^(A)the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, ^(B)be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time^[a] and now and forever. Amen.

¹⁰ so that through the church the manifold ^(A)wisdom of God ^(B)might now be made known to ^(C)the rulers and authorities ^(D)in the heavenly places.

¹⁵ But the free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man's trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for ^(A)many.

^3 (A)in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

¹¹ In him we have obtained ^(A)an inheritance, ^(B)having been predestined ^(C)according to the purpose of him who works all things according to ^(D)the counsel of his will,

⁷ But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, ^(A)which God decreed before the ages for our glory.

¹⁹ For it is written,

^20 (B)Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? ^(C)Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? ²¹ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach^[a] to save those who believe. ²² For ^(D)Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, ²³ but we preach Christ ^(E)crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, ²⁴ but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ ^(F)the power of God and ^(G)the wisdom of God.
