21. For since, in the wisdom of Elohim, the world through wisdom did not know Elohim, it pleased Elohim through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.
22. And since Yehuḏim ask a sign, and Greeks seek wisdom,
23. yet we proclaim Messiah impaled, to the Yehuḏim a stumbling-block and to the Greeks foolishness,
24. but to those who are called – both Yehuḏim and Greeks – Messiah the power of Elohim and the wisdom of Elohim.
25. For the foolishness of Elohim is wiser than men, and the weakness of Elohim is stronger than men.
