foolish the wisdom of the world?
For ye are yet
carnal: for
whereas there is among you
envying, and
strife, and divisions, are ye not
carnal, and walk as men?

beseech you, be ye followers of me.

prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall
vanish away.

prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.
Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
So, my brothers, be eager to
prophesy, and do not
forbid speaking in tongues.
Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;

harmed, but rather that your earnestness on our behalf would be made clear to you in the sight of God.

exhort the brethren, that they would go before unto you, and make up

urge the brothers to visit you
beforehand and make arrangements for the
bountiful gift you had promised. This way, your gift will be prepared generously and not begrudgingly.
But I
beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence,

beg you that when I come I may not need to be as bold as I expect toward those who
presume that we live according to the flesh.
Wherefore? because I love you not? God knoweth.
Why? Because I do not love you? God knows I do!
But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.
But I will keep on doing what I am doing, in order to undercut those who want an opportunity to be regarded as our equals in the things of which they
boast.
I speak as concerning reproach, as though we had been weak.
Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, (I speak
foolishly,) I am bold also.
For what is it
wherein ye were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not
burdensome to you?
forgive me this wrong.

mediator.

beggarly elements,
whereunto ye desire again to be in
bondage?
But now that you know God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you are turning back to those weak and worthless principles? Do you wish to be
enslaved by them all over again?
Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have
plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
What then has become of your blessing? For I can
testify that, if it were possible, you would have
torn out your eyes and given them to me.

encumbered once more by a yoke of slavery.
To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the Beloved One.

prudence;

lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.

circumcision (that done in the body by human hands)—

mystery of Christ)
In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the
mystery of Christ,

effectual working of his power.
I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace, given me through the working of His power.
Wherefore I desire that ye
faint not at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.
So I ask you not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.
As a prisoner in the Lord, then, I
urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received:
Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity
captive, and gave gifts unto men.
This is why it says: “When He ascended on high, He led
captives away, and gave gifts to men.”

tossed about by the waves and carried around by every wind of teaching and by the
clever cunning of men in their

armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.
Above all, taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to
quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked.
In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can
extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
