1 Corinthians 3:18 in Context — 1 Corinthians 3
16 ¿No sabéis que sois templo de Dios, y que el Espíritu de Dios mora en vosotros?
17 Si alguno violare el templo de Dios, Dios destruirá al tal: porque el templo de Dios, el cual sois vosotros, santo es.
18 Nadie se engañe á sí mismo: si alguno entre vosotros parece ser sabio en este siglo, hágase simple, para ser sabio.
19 Porque la sabiduría de este mundo es necedad para con Dios; pues escrito está: El que prende á los sabios en la astucia de ellos.
20 Y otra vez: El Señor conoce los pensamientos de los sabios, que son vanos.
