1 Corinthians 1:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the prudence of the prudent I will reject.

²⁰ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
