For the worde of ye crosse is foolishnesse to the that perishe but vnto vs which are saued, it is the power of God.

For it is wrytte: I wyl destroye the wyssdome of the wyse, & wil cast away the vnderstondinge of ye prudet.

Hath not God made the wyssdome of this worlde foolishnesse? For in so moch as the worlde by the wyssdome therof knewe not God in his wyssdome, it pleased God thorow foolish preachinge to saue them yt beleue.

For the Iewes requyre tokens, and the Grekes axe after wyssdome.

For the foolishnes of God is wyser then men: and the weaknes of God is stroger the men.

For I shewed not forth my selfe amonge you that I knewe eny thinge, saue onely Iesus Christ, euen the sam thate was crucified.

which none of ye rulers of this worlde knewe. For yf they had knowne it, they had not crucified the LORDE of glorye,

but as it is wrytten: The eye hath not sene, and the eare hath not herde, nether hath it entred in to the hert of man that God hath prepared for them that loue him.

But God hath opened it vnto vs by his sprete. For the sprete searcheth out all thinges, yee euen the depenesses of the God heade.

For what ma knoweth what is in man, saue the sprete of ma which is in him? Euen so no man knoweth what is in God, saue ye sprete of God.

As for vs, we haue not receaued the sprete of this worlde, but the sprete which cometh of God, so that we ca knowe what is geue vs of God:

Howbeit the naturall man perceaueth nothinge of ye sprete of God. It is foolishnes vnto him, and he can not perceaue it: for it must be spiritually discerned.

For who hath knowne ye mynde of the LORDE? Or who shal enfourme him? But we haue the mynde of Christ.

I gaue you mylke to drynke, and not meate, for ye mighte not then awaye withall, nether maye ye yet euen now, in so moch as ye are yet fleshlye.

For seynge there is enuyenge, stryfe, and discencion amonge you, are ye not fleshly, & walke after ye maner of men?

For whan one sayeth: I holde of Paul: another, I holde of Apollo, are ye not the fleshlye?

As for him that planteth, and he that watreth, ye one is as the other: but yet shal euery one receaue his rewarde acordinge to his laboure.

For we are Gods labourers, ye are Gods hussbandry, ye are Gods buyldinge.

For other foudacion can noman laye, then that which is layed, the which is Iesus Christ.

euerymas worke shal be shewed. For the daye of the LORDE shal declare it, which shal be shewed with fyre: and the fyre shal trye euery mas worke what it is.
