'Of the World' in the Bible

but the foolish things of this world hath God elected, that he might confound the wise; and the feeble things of the world hath God elected, that he might confound the mighty;

and the ignoble things of the world, and the despicable, hath God elected, and the things that are not, to bring to nought the things which are,

Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

being injuriously spoken of, we entreat; we are made as the ordures of the world, as the sweepings of all things unto this day.

Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or the covetous, or extortioners, or idolaters: for then must ye indeed go out of the world.

but he who is married is anxious about the things of the world, how he shall please his wife.

A wife and a virgin hath different pursuits: the unmarried woman is anxious about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and spirit; but the married woman is anxious about the things of the world, how she shall please her husband.
