1 Corinthians 1 Revised Fenton bible translation. The Holy Bible in Modern English. Ferrar Fenton. 1 Corinthians 1

   Work on the 'The Holy Bible in Modern English' began in 1853 by a London businessman named Ferrar Fenton (1832–1920). The complete Bible was first published in 1903, though some individual bible 'books' were published as separate volumes during the preceding 11 years.
   Fenton is well known for a rearranging of the books of the Bible into what the author believed was the correct chronological order. In the Old Testament, this order follows that of the Hebrew Bible. The name of God was translated throughout the Old Testament as "The Ever-Living".
   Fenton is an exciting translation that shows respect and gives clarity in many areas where other translations fall short. This Bible is described as being "translated into English direct from the original Hebrew, Chaldee, and Greek languages."

Welcome to the new blog section. Join us in this exciting effort to display the works of Ferrar Fenton! The Holy Bible in Modern English is now fully digitized and can be seen for it's creative and artistic beauty as well as for the spiritual edification that we all need through the daily study of the scriptures.

This project actually began in 2012 when the conversion of scanned images, using OCR software, revived a very beautiful but tangled digital version of Ferrar Fenton's work. The major part of the editing, including verse alignment, OCR errors and chapter breaks took over one year. Still, as we go there are minor fixes to punctuation and a few odd necessary edits.

In its very raw form, 'The Holy Bible in Modern English' went online with a free but very undependable web hosting service in 2014, where it has been ever since.
With thanks to the generosity of others, just recently, the site has been moved to its current home. This hosting service is by far superior to the previous but costs are high so we are maintaining an ad service to help offset the costs.

KJVP CO1 1:1	Paul, called^G2822 to be an apostle^G652 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 through^G1223 the will^G2307 of God^G2316, and Sosthenes^G4988 our brother^G80,

KJVP CO1 1:2	Unto the church^G1577 of God^G2316 which^G3588 is at^G1722 Corinth^G2882, to them that are sanctified^G37 in Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424, called^G2822 to be saints^G40, with all^G3956 that in every^G3956 place^G5117 call^G1941 upon the name^G3686 of Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 our Lord^G2962, both^G5037 theirs and ours^G2257:

KJVP CO1 1:3	Grace^G5485 be unto you, and peace^G1515, from God^G2316 our Father^G3962, and from the Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547.

KJVP CO1 1:4	I thank^G2168 my God^G2316 always^G3842 on^G4012 your^G5216 behalf^G4012, for the grace^G5485 of God^G2316 which^G3588 is given^G1325 you by Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547;

KJVP CO1 1:5	That in every^G3956 thing ye are enriched^G4148 by him, in all^G3956 utterance^G3056, and in all^G3956 knowledge^G1108;

KJVP CO1 1:6	Even^G2531 as the testimony^G3142 of Christ^G5547 was confirmed^G950 in you:

KJVP CO1 1:7	So^G5620 that ye come^G5302 behind^G5302 in no^G3367 gift^G5486; waiting^G553 for the coming^G602 of our Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547:

KJVP CO1 1:8	Who^G3739 shall also^G2532 confirm^G950 you unto the end^G5056, that ye may be blameless^G410 in the day^G2250 of our Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547.

KJVP CO1 1:9	God^G2316 is faithful^G4103, by whom^G3739 ye were called^G2564 unto the fellowship^G2842 of his Son^G5207 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547 our Lord^G2962.

KJVP CO1 1:10	Now^G1161 I beseech^G3870 you, brethren^G80, by the name^G3686 of our Lord^G2962 Jesus^G2424 Christ^G5547, that ye all^G3956 speak^G3004 the same^G846 thing, and that there be no^G3361 divisions^G4978 among^G1722 you; but that ye be perfectly^G2675 joined^G2675 together^G2675 in the same^G846 mind^G3563 and in the same^G846 judgment^G1106.

KJVP CO1 1:11	For it hath been declared^G1213 unto me of you, my brethren^G80, by them which are of the house of Chloe^G5514, that there are contentions^G2054 among^G1722 you.

KJVP CO1 1:12	Now^G1161 this^G5124 I say^G3004, that every^G1538 one of you saith^G3004, I am^G1510 of Paul; and I of Apollos^G625; and I of Cephas^G2786; and I of Christ^G5547.

KJVP CO1 1:13	Is Christ^G5547 divided^G3307? was Paul crucified^G4717 for you? or^G2228 were ye baptized^G907 in the name^G3686 of Paul?

KJVP CO1 1:14	I thank^G2168 God^G2316 that I baptized^G907 none^G3762 of you, but Crispus^G2921 and Gaius^G1050;

KJVP CO1 1:15	Lest^G2443-^G3361 any^G3387 should say^G2036 that I had baptized^G907 in mine^G1699 own name^G3686.

KJVP CO1 1:16	And I baptized^G907 also^G2532 the household^G3624 of Stephanas^G4734: besides^G3063, I know^G1492 not whether^G1487 I baptized^G907 any^G1536 other^G243.

KJVP CO1 1:17	For Christ^G5547 sent^G649 me not to baptize^G907, but to preach^G2097 the gospel^G2097: not with wisdom^G4678 of words^G3056, lest^G2443-^G3361 the cross^G4716 of Christ^G5547 should be made^G2758 of none^G2758 effect^G2758.

KJVP CO1 1:18	For the preaching^G3056 of the cross^G4716 is to them that perish^G622 foolishness^G3472; but unto us which are saved^G4982 it is the power^G1411 of God^G2316.

KJVP CO1 1:19	For it is written^G1125, I will destroy^G622 the wisdom^G4678 of the wise^G4680, and will bring^G114 to nothing^G114 the understanding^G4907 of the prudent^G4908.

KJVP CO1 1:20	Where^G4226 is the wise^G4680? where^G4226 is the scribe^G1122? where^G4226 is the disputer^G4804 of this^G5127 world^G165? hath not God^G2316 made^G3471 foolish^G3471 the wisdom^G4678 of this^G5127 world^G2889?

KJVP CO1 1:21	For after^G1894 that in the wisdom^G4678 of God^G2316 the world^G2889 by wisdom^G4678 knew^G1097 not God^G2316, it pleased^G2106 God^G2316 by the foolishness^G3472 of preaching^G2782 to save^G4982 them that believe^G4100.

KJVP CO1 1:22	For the Jews^G2453 require^G154 a sign^G4592, and the Greeks^G1672 seek^G2212 after wisdom^G4678:

KJVP CO1 1:23	But we preach^G2784 Christ^G5547 crucified^G4717, unto the Jews^G2453 a stumblingblock^G4625, and unto the Greeks^G1672 foolishness^G3472;

KJVP CO1 1:24	But unto them which^G3588 are called^G2822, both^G5037 Jews^G2453 and Greeks^G1672, Christ^G5547 the power^G1411 of God^G2316, and the wisdom^G4678 of God^G2316.

KJVP CO1 1:25	Because^G3754 the foolishness^G3474 of God^G2316 is wiser^G4680 than men^G444; and the weakness^G772 of God^G2316 is stronger^G2478 than men^G444.

KJVP CO1 1:26	For ye see^G991 your^G5216 calling^G2821, brethren^G80, how that not many^G4183 wise^G4680 men after^G2596 the flesh^G4561, not many^G4183 mighty^G1415, not many^G4183 noble^G2104, are called:

KJVP CO1 1:27	But God^G2316 hath chosen^G1586 the foolish^G3474 things of the world^G2889 to confound^G2617 the wise^G4680; and God^G2316 hath chosen^G1586 the weak^G772 things of the world^G2889 to confound^G2617 the things which are mighty^G2478;

KJVP CO1 1:28	And base^G36 things of the world^G2889, and things which are despised^G1848, hath God^G2316 chosen^G1586, yea, and things which^G3588 are not, to bring^G2673 to nought^G2673 things that are:

KJVP CO1 1:29	That no^G3361-^G3956 flesh^G4561 should glory^G2744 in his presence^G1799.

KJVP CO1 1:30	But of him are ye in Christ^G5547 Jesus^G2424, who^G3739 of God^G2316 is made^G1096 unto us wisdom^G4678, and righteousness^G1343, and sanctification^G38, and redemption^G629:

KJVP CO1 1:31	That, according^G2531 as it is written^G1125, He that glorieth^G2744, let him glory^G2744 in the Lord^G2962.
