14I give thanks to God that no one of you did I baptize, except Crispus and Gaius --
15that no one may say that to my own name I did baptize;
16and I did baptize also Stephanas` household -- further, I have not known if I did baptize any other.
17For Christ did not send me to baptize, but -- to proclaim good news; not in wisdom of discourse, that the cross of the Christ may not be made of none effect;
18for the word of the cross to those indeed perishing is foolishness, and to us -- those being saved -- it is the power of God,
19for it hath been written, `I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will bring to nought;`
20where [is] the wise? where the scribe? where a disputer of this age? did not God make foolish the wisdom of this world?
