¹⁰Now ^uI beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, ^vthat ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be ^wperfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. ¹¹For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them ^xwhich are of the house of Chloe, that there are ^ycontentions among you. ¹²Now this I say, that ^zevery one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of ^aApollos; and I of ^bCephas; and I of Christ. ¹³^cIs Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye ^dbaptized in the name of Paul? ¹⁴I thank God that ^eI baptized none of you, but ^fCrispus and ^gGaius; ¹⁵lest any should say that I had ^dbaptized in mine own name. ¹⁶And I baptized also the household of ^hStephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.

¹⁷For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: ⁱnot with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be ^kmade of none effect. ¹⁸For the preaching of the cross is to ^lthem that perish ^mfoolishness; but unto us ⁿwhich are saved it is ^othe power of God.

Read in Logos

1 Corinthians 1:17: For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
