9. God is faithful, by whom you were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
10. Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
11. For it has been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them who are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
12. Now this I say, that every one of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
13. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
14. I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;
15. Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.
16. And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
17. For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.
18. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are saved it is the power of God.
19. For it is written,
20. Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
