1 Corinthians 1:22-25 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom,

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom, ²³ but we preach Christ crucified, {Gr. Stauroo – hung on a stake}, unto the Jews a stumblingblock and unto the Gentiles foolishness; ²⁴ but unto those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God, and the wisdom of God. ²⁵ For that which is foolish of God is wiser than men, and that which is weak of God is stronger than men.
