1 Corinthians 1:28

1:28 God chose ¹  what is low and despised in the world, what is regarded as nothing, to set aside what is regarded as something,

Psalms 33:10

33:10 The Lord frustrates ²  the decisions of the nations;

he nullifies the plans ³  of the peoples.

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

² tn Heb “breaks” or “destroys.” The Hebrew perfect verbal forms here and in the next line generalize about the Lord’s activity.

³ tn Heb “thoughts.”
