KJV ORIGINAL
We are fools for Christ’s sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
We look like complete fools because we follow Christ, but you all seem so wise in your faith. We're weak and struggling while you're strong and put-together. You get respect and honor, but people look down on us.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes following Jesus means looking foolish to the world — and that's actually exactly where you're supposed to be.
