1 Corinthians 1:16-18
Legacy Standard Bible
16 Now I did baptize also the (A)household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other. 17 (B)For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to proclaim the gospel, (C)not in wisdom of word, so that the cross of Christ will not be made empty.
Christ the Power and Wisdom of God
18 For the word of the cross is (D)foolishness to (E)those who [a]are perishing, but to us who [b]are being saved, it is (F)the power of God.

1 Corinthians 1:16-18
King James Version
16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
