1 Corinthians 1:22-25
New International Version
22 Jews demand signs(A) and Greeks look for wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified:(B) a stumbling block(C) to Jews and foolishness(D) to Gentiles, 24 but to those whom God has called,(E) both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God(F) and the wisdom of God.(G) 25 For the foolishness(H) of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness(I) of God is stronger than human strength.
1 Corinthians 1:22-25
King James Version
22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
