The First Letter of Paul to the
Corinthians
CHAPTER 1
1 Corinthians 1:1
1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and
Sosthenes our brother,
1 Corinthians 1:2
2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in
Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the
name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours: 1 Corinthians 1:3
3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus
Christ.
1 Corinthians 1:4
4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you
 by Jesus Christ;
1 Corinthians 1:5
5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all
knowledge;
1 Corinthians 1:6
6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: 1 Corinthians 1:7
7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ:
1 Corinthians 1:8
8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day
ofour Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 1:9
9 God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus
Christ our Lord.
1 Corinthians 1:10
10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye
all  speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that
ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
1 Corinthians 1:11
11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of
the house of Chloe, that there are contentions  among you. 1 Corinthians 1:12
12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos;
 and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:13
13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were yebaptized in the
name of Paul?
1 Corinthians 1:14
14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius; 1
Corinthians 1:15
15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name. 1 Corinthians 1:16
16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether
Ibaptized any other.
1 Corinthians 1:17
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. 1
Corinthians 1:18
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. 1 Corinthians 1:19
19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to
nothing theunderstanding of the prudent. 1 Corinthians 1:20
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? 1 Corinthians 1:21
21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God,
itpleased God  by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 1
Corinthians 1:22
22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 1 Corinthians
1:23
23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto
theGreeks foolishness;
1 Corinthians 1:24
24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of
God, and the wisdom  of God.
1 Corinthians 1:25
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is
stronger than men.
1 Corinthians 1:26
26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the
flesh, not many  mighty, not many noble, are called: 1 Corinthians 1:27
27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise;
and God hath chosen the weak things of the world  to confound the things which
are mighty;
1 Corinthians 1:28
28 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God
chosen, yea,and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 1
Corinthians 1:29
29 That no flesh should glory in his presence. 1 Corinthians 1:30
30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us  wisdom, and
righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 1 Corinthians 1:31
31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the
Lord.
CHAPTER 2
1 Corinthians 2:1
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of
wisdom, declaring  unto you the testimony of God. 1 Corinthians 2:2
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him
crucified.
1 Corinthians 2:3
3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much  trembling. 1
Corinthians 2:4
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom,
but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 1 Corinthians 2:5
5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of
God.
1 Corinthians 2:6
6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of
this world, nor of the princes of this  world, that come to nought: 1
Corinthians 2:7
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which
God ordained before the world unto our glory: 1 Corinthians 2:8
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they
would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1 Corinthians 2:9
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered
into  the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them thatlove
him.
1 Corinthians 2:10
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth
allthings, yea, the deep things of God. 1 Corinthians 2:11
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in
him? even  so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. 1
Corinthians 2:12
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is
of God; that we might know  the things that are freely given to us of God.
1 Corinthians 2:13
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth,
but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;  comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
1 Corinthians 2:14
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they
are foolishness unto him: neither  can he know them, because they are
spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:15
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no
man.
1 Corinthians 2:16
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we
have the mind of Christ.
CHAPTER 3
1 Corinthians 3:1
1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as
untocarnal, even as unto babes in Christ. 1 Corinthians 3:2
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to
bear it, neither yet now are ye able. 1 Corinthians 3:3
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife,
and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 1 Corinthians 3:4
4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not
carnal?
1 Corinthians 3:5
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom yebelieved, even
as the Lord gave to every man? 1 Corinthians 3:6
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 1 Corinthians 3:7
7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but
God that giveth the increase.
1 Corinthians 3:8
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall
receive his own reward according to his own  labour. 1 Corinthians 3:9
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's
building.
1 Corinthians 3:10
10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise
masterbuilder, I havelaid the foundation, and another  buildeth thereon. But
let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 1 Corinthians 3:11
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus
Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:12
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones,
wood, hay, stubble;
1 Corinthians 3:13
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it,
because itshall be revealed by fire; and the fire  shall try every man's work
of what sort it is.
1 Corinthians 3:14
14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a
reward.
1 Corinthians 3:15
15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself
shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
1 Corinthians 3:16
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God
dwelleth in you?
1 Corinthians 3:17
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple
of God is holy,  which temple ye are. 1 Corinthians 3:18
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this
world,  let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 1 Corinthians 3:19
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written,
Hetaketh the wise in  their own craftiness. 1 Corinthians 3:20
20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. 1
Corinthians 3:21
21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; 1 Corinthians
3:22
22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or
things present, or things to come; all are yours; 1 Corinthians 3:23
23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. CHAPTER 4
1 Corinthians 4:1
1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of
themysteries of God.
1 Corinthians 4:2
2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. 1
Corinthians 4:3
3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of
man's judgment: yea,  I judge not mine own self. 1 Corinthians 4:4
4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but hethat
judgeth me is  the Lord.
1 Corinthians 4:5
5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will
bring to light the hidden things of darkness,  and will make manifest the
counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God. 1
Corinthians 4:6
6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to
Apollos for yoursakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that
which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.
1 Corinthians 4:7
7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou
didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if
thou hadst not received it?
1 Corinthians 4:8
8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I
would to God ye did reign, that we  also might reign with you. 1 Corinthians
4:9
9 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were
appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle  unto the world, and to angels,
and to men.
1 Corinthians 4:10
10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but
ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised. 1 Corinthians 4:11
11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and
are buffeted, and  have no certain dwellingplace; 1 Corinthians 4:12
12 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless;
beingpersecuted, we suffer it:
1 Corinthians 4:13
13 Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are
the offscouring of all things unto this day. 1 Corinthians 4:14
14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you. 1
Corinthians 4:15
15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many
fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel. 1
Corinthians 4:16
16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. 1 Corinthians 4:17
17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and
faithful  in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be
in Christ, as I teach every where in every church. 1 Corinthians 4:18
18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you. 1 Corinthians
4:19
19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the
speech of them which are puffed up,  but the power. 1 Corinthians 4:20
20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 1 Corinthians 4:21
21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in thespirit
of meekness?
