1 Corinthians 3:20 Context
18Let no man deceiue himselfe: If any man among you seemeth to bee wise in this world, let him become a foole, that he may be wise. 19For the wisedome of this world is foolishnesse with God: for it is written, Hee taketh the wise in their owne craftinesse. 20And againe, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vaine. 21Therefore let no man glory in men, for all things are yours. 22Whether Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come, all are yours.
