Mace(i)
23 we preach Christ crucified, an obstacle to the Jews indeed, and to the Gentiles foolishness: but to those who believe,
24 both Jews and Gentiles, he is the Christ, the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 for this divine doctrine, as foolish and weak as men may think it, far surpasses all their wisdom, and baffles all their power.
26 for consider, brethren, that not many worldly wise, not many men of power, not many men of birth are among you that are called.
27 but God hath chosen those who are foolish in the opinion of the world, to confound the wise; and the weak men of the world to confound the mighty:
28 those who were looked upon by the world as vile, as despicable, as nothing, these has God chosen to reduce their sufficiency to nothing.
