1 Corinthians 1:17

For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel , and not with words of eloquent wisdom , lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power .

For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel : not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
