1 Corinthians 3:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 If any man [a]destroy the Temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the Temple of God is holy, which ye are.
18 [b]Let no man deceive himself: If any man among you seem to be wise in this world, let him be a fool, that he may be wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God: for it is written, (A)He [c]catcheth the wise in their own craftiness.
