27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise, and God hath chosen the weak things of the world, to confound the mighty things,
28 And vile things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, and things which [a]are not, to bring to [b]nought things that are.
29 That no [c]flesh should rejoice in his presence.
