13. Has Christ been divided? Paul was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
14. I give thanks that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,
15. lest anyone should say that you were baptized in my name.
16. (Now I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Beyond that I do not know if I baptized anyone else.)
17. For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to proclaim the gospel, not with clever speech, lest the cross of Christ be emptied.
18. For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the intelligence of the intelligent I will confound.”
