1 Corinthians 3:20 in Context — 1 Corinthians 3

18 Ninguém se engane; se alguém entre vós nestes tempos pensa ser sábio, que se faça de louco, para que seja sábio.

19 Pois a sabedoria deste mundo é loucura para Deus; porque está escrito: Ele toma aos sábios pela sua própria astúcia.

20 E outra vez: O Senhor conhece os pensamentos dos sábios, que são vãos.

21 Portanto ninguém se orgulhe em seres humanos; porque tudo é vosso,

22 seja Paulo, seja Apolo, seja Cefas, seja o mundo, seja a vida, seja a morte, seja o presente, seja o futuro; tudo é vosso.
