16. Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s sanctuary and that the Spirit of God lives in you?

17. If anyone destroys God’s sanctuary, God will destroy him; for God’s sanctuary is holy, and that is what you are.

18. No one should deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks he is wise in this age, he must become foolish so that he can become wise.

19. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, since it is written: He catches the wise in their craftiness;

20. and again, The Lord knows that the reasonings of the wise are meaningless.

21. So no one should boast in human leaders, for everything is yours —
