1 Corinthians 1

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	VULGATA
1 Paul, called as an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God; and Sosthenes, a brother:	1 Paulus vocatus Apostolus Jesu Christi per voluntatem Dei, et Sosthenes frater,
2 to the Church of God which is at Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints with all who are invoking the name of our Lord Jesus Christ in every place of theirs and of ours.	2 ecclesiæ Dei, quæ est Corinthi, sanctificatis in Christo Jesu, vocatis sanctis, cum omnibus qui invocant nomen Domini nostri Jesu Christi, in omni loco ipsorum et nostro.
3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.	3 Gratia vobis, et pax a Deo Patre nostro, et Domino Jesu Christo.
4 I give thanks to my God continuously for you because of the grace of God that has been given to you in Christ Jesus.	4 Gratias ago Deo meo semper pro vobis in gratia Dei, quæ data est vobis in Christo Jesu :
5 By that grace, in all things, you have become wealthy in him, in every word and in all knowledge.	5 quod in omnibus divites facti estis in illo, in omni verbo, et in omni scientia.
6 And so, the testimony of Christ has been strengthened in you.	6 Sicut testimonium Christi confirmatum est in vobis :
7 In this way, nothing is lacking to you in any grace, as you await the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.	7 ita ut nihil vobis desit in ulla gratia, exspectantibus revelationem Domini nostri Jesu Christi,
8 And he, too, will strengthen you, even until the end, without guilt, until the day of the advent of our Lord Jesus Christ.	8 qui et confirmabit vos usque in finem sine crimine, in die adventus Domini nostri Jesu Christi.
9 God is faithful. Through him, you have been called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.	9 Fidelis Deus : per quem vocati estis in societatem filii ejus Jesu Christi Domini nostri.
10 And so, I beg you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that every one of you speak in the same way, and that there be no schisms among you. So may you become perfect, with the same mind and with the same judgment.	10 Obsecro autem vos fratres per nomen Domini nostri Jesu Christi : ut idipsum dicatis omnes, et non sint in vobis schismata : sitis autem perfecti in eodem sensu, et in eadem sententia.
11 For it has been indicated to me, about you, my brothers, by those who are with Chloes, that there are contentions among you.	11 Significatum est enim mihi de vobis fratres mei ab iis, qui sunt Chloës, quia contentiones sunt inter vos.
12 Now I say this because each of you is saying: “Certainly, I am of Paul;” “But I am of Apollo;” “Truly, I am of Cephas;” as well as: “I am of Christ.”	12 Hoc autem dico, quod unusquisque vestrum dicit : Ego quidem sum Pauli : ego autem Apollo : ego vero Cephæ : ego autem Christi.
13 Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?	13 Divisus est Christus ? numquid Paulus crucifixus est pro vobis ? aut in nomine Pauli baptizati estis ?
14 I give thanks to God that I have baptized none of you, except Crispus and Gaius,	14 Gratias ago Deo, quod neminem vestrum baptizavi, nisi Crispum et Caium :
15 lest anyone say that you have been baptized in my name.	15 ne quis dicat quod in nomine meo baptizati estis.
16 And I also baptized the household of Stephanus. Other than these, I do not recall if I baptized any others.	16 Baptizavi autem et Stephanæ domum : ceterum nescio si quem alium baptizaverim.
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to evangelize: not through the wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ become empty.	17 Non enim misit me Christus baptizare, sed evangelizare : non in sapientia verbi, ut non evacuetur crux Christi.
18 For the Word of the Cross is certainly foolishness to those who are perishing. But to those who have been saved, that is, to us, it is the power of God.	18 Verbum enim crucis pereuntibus quidem stultitia est : iis autem qui salvi fiunt, id est nobis, Dei virtus est.
19 For it has been written: “I will perish the wisdom of the wise, and I will reject the discernment of the prudent.”	19 Scriptum est enim : Perdam sapientiam sapientium, et prudentiam prudentium reprobabo.
20 Where are the wise? Where are the scribes? Where are the truth-seekers of this age? Has not God made the wisdom of this world into foolishness?	20 Ubi sapiens ? ubi scriba ? ubi conquisitor hujus sæculi ? Nonne stultam fecit Deus sapientiam hujus mundi ?
21 For the world did not know God through wisdom, and so, in the wisdom of God, it pleased God to accomplish the salvation of believers, through the foolishness of our preaching.	21 Nam quia in Dei sapientia non cognovit mundus per sapientiam Deum : placuit Deo per stultitiam prædicationis salvos facere credentes.
22 For the Jews ask for signs, and the Greeks seek wisdom.	22 Quoniam et Judæi signa petunt, et Græci sapientiam quærunt :
23 But we are preaching Christ crucified. Certainly, to the Jews, this is a scandal, and to the Gentiles, this is foolishness.	23 nos autem prædicamus Christum crucifixum : Judæis quidem scandalum, gentibus autem stultitiam,
24 But to those who have been called, Jews as well as Greeks, the Christ is the virtue of God and the wisdom of God.	24 ipsis autem vocatis Judæis, atque Græcis Christum Dei virtutem, et Dei sapientiam :
25 For what is foolishness to God is considered wise by men, and that which is weakness to God is considered strong by men.	25 quia quod stultum est Dei, sapientius est hominibus : et quod infirmum est Dei, fortius est hominibus.
26 So take care of your vocation, brothers. For not many are wise according to the flesh, not many are powerful, not many are noble.	26 Videte enim vocationem vestram, fratres, quia non multi sapientes secundum carnem, non multi potentes, non multi nobiles :
27 But God has chosen the foolish of the world, so that he may confound the wise. And God has chosen the weak of the world, so that he may confound the strong.	27 sed quæ stulta sunt mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat sapientes : et infirma mundi elegit Deus, ut confundat fortia :
28 And God has chosen the ignoble and contemptible of the world, those who are nothing, so that he may reduce to nothing those who are something.	28 et ignobilia mundi, et contemptibilia elegit Deus, et ea quæ non sunt, ut ea quæ sunt destrueret :
29 So then, nothing that is of the flesh should glory in his sight.	29 ut non glorietur omnis caro in conspectu ejus.
30 But you are of him in Christ Jesus, who was made by God to be our wisdom and justice and sanctification and redemption.	30 Ex ipso autem vos estis in Christo Jesu, qui factus est nobis sapientia a Deo, et justitia, et sanctificatio, et redemptio :
31 And so, in the same way, it was written: “Whoever glories, should glory in the Lord.”	31 ut quemadmodum scriptum est : Qui gloriatur, in Domino glorietur.
