← 1 Corinthians 3:17	1 Corinthians 3:18 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 3:19 →
If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.	Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.	For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
