For I would G2309 not, brothers, G80 that you should be ignorant G50 of this G5124 mystery, G3466 lest G2443 G3361 you should be wise G5429 in your G3844 G1438 own G1438 conceits; G3844 G1438 that blindness G4457 in part G3313 is happened G1096 to Israel, G2474 until G891 the fullness G4138 of the Gentiles G1484 be come G1525 in.

Whoever H376 H834 boasts H1984 himself of a false H8267 gift H4991 is like clouds H5387 and wind H7307 without H369 rain. H1653

See H7200 you a man H376 wise H2450 in his own conceit? H5869 there is more hope H8615 of a fool H3684 than of him.

For you have trusted H982 in your wickedness: H7451 you have said, H559 None H369 sees H7200 me. Your wisdom H2451 and your knowledge, H1847 it has perverted H7725 you; and you have said H559 in your heart, H3820 I am, and none H657 else H5750 beside H657 me.

How H349 do you say, H559 We are wise, H2450 and the law H8451 of the LORD H3068 is with us? See, H2009 certainly H403 in vain H8267 made H6213 he it; the pen H5842 of the scribes H5608 is in vain. H8267

The wise H2450 men are ashamed, H954 they are dismayed H2865 and taken: see, H2009 they have rejected H3988 the word H1697 of the LORD; H3068 and what H4100 wisdom H2451 is in them?

Every H3605 man H120 is brutish H1197 in his knowledge: H1847 every H3605 founder H6884 is confounded H3001 by the graven H6459 image: H6459 for his molten H5262 image is falsehood, H8267 and there is no H3808 breath H7307 in them.

But if G1487 your G4675 eye G3788 be evil, G4190 your whole G3650 body G4983 shall be full G5460 of darkness. G4652 If G1487 therefore G3767 the light G5457 that is in you be darkness, G4655 how G4214 great G4214 is that darkness! G4655

For it is written, G1125 I will destroy G622 the wisdom G4678 of the wise, G4680 and will bring G114 to nothing G114 the understanding G4907 of the prudent. G4908

For after G1894 that in the wisdom G4678 of God G2316 the world G2889 by wisdom G4678 knew G1097 not God, G2316 it pleased G2106 God G2316 by the foolishness G3472 of preaching G2782 to save G4982 them that believe. G4100

Let no G3367 man G3367 deceive G1818 himself. G1438 If G1487 any G1536 man among G1722 you seems G1380 to be wise G4680 in this G5129 world, G165 let him become G1096 a fool, G3474 that he may be wise. G4680

For the wisdom G4678 of this G5127 world G2889 is foolishness G3472 with God. G2316 For it is written, G1125 He takes G1405 the wise G4680 in their own craftiness. G3834
