¹⁵ as to wise men I speak -- judge ye what I say:

¹ And concerning the things sacrificed to idols, we have known that we all have knowledge: knowledge puffeth up, but love buildeth up;

²¹ all things prove; that which is good hold fast;

² Hear, O wise men, my words, And, O knowing ones, give ear to me.

³ For the ear doth try words, And the palate tasteth to eat.

¹⁰ we `are' fools because of Christ, and ye wise in Christ; we `are' ailing, and ye strong; ye glorious, and we dishonoured;

⁵ unto your shame I speak: so there is not among you one wise man, not even one, who shall be able to discern in the midst of his brethren!

¹³ In your own selves judge ye; is it seemly for a woman uncovered to pray to God?

²⁰ Brethren, become not children in the understanding, but in the evil be ye babes, and in the understanding become ye perfect;
