Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
Now it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.
But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of
man’s judgment:
yea, I judge not mine own self.
I care very little, however, if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.
Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.
Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will
expose the motives of men’s hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.
And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be
puffed up for one against another.
Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one man over another.
For though ye have ten thousand instructers in Christ, yet have ye not
many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have
begotten you through the gospel.
Even if you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.
It is reported commonly that there is
fornication among you, and such
fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.
It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is
intolerable even among pagans: A
man has his father’s wife.
And ye are
puffed up, and have not rather
mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have been
stricken with grief and have removed from your
fellowship the
man who did this?
To deliver such an one unto
Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.
hand this
man over to
Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the Day of the Lord.
But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among
yourselves that wicked person.
God will judge those outside. “
Expel the wicked
man from among you.”
I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?
I say this to your shame. Is there really no one among you wise enough to
arbitrate between his brothers?
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not
inherit the kingdom of God? Be not
deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with
mankind,
Do you not know that the wicked will not
inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be
deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who submit to or perform homosexual acts,
Flee fornication. Every sin that a
man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth
fornication sinneth against his own body.
Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a
man can commit is outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.
Now concerning the things
whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a
man not to touch a woman.
Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good to
abstain from sexual relations.
Nevertheless, to avoid
fornication, let every
man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
But because there is so much sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.
For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.
I wish that all men were as I am. But each man has his own gift from God; one has this gift, another has that.
For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?
How do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?
But as God hath distributed to every
man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so
ordain I in all churches.
Regardless, each one should lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him and to which God has called him. This is what I
prescribe in all the churches.
Let every
man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
Each one should remain in the situation he was in when he was called.
For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord’s
freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ’s servant.
For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord’s
freedman.
Conversely, he who was a free
man when he was called is Christ’s slave.
Brethren, let every
man, wherein he is called, therein
abide with God.
Brothers, each one should remain in the situation he was in when God called him.
I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.
Because of the present
crisis, I think it is good for a
man to remain as he is.
But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:
I want you to be free from
concern. The unmarried
man is concerned about the work of the Lord, how he can please the Lord.
But he that is married careth for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
But the married man is concerned about the affairs of this world, how he can please his wife,
But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them marry.
However, if someone thinks he is acting inappropriately toward his
betrothed, and if she is beyond her youth and they ought to marry, let him do as he wishes; he is not
sinning; they should get married.
Nevertheless he that standeth
stedfast in his heart, having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.
But the
man who is firmly established in his heart and under no
constraint, with control over his will and
resolve in his heart not to marry the virgin, he will do well.
And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
The one who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know.
But if any man love God, the same is known of him.
But the one who loves God is known by God.
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many so-called gods and lords),
Howbeit there is not in every
man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the
idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an
idol; and their conscience being weak is
defiled.
But not
everyone has this knowledge. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that they eat such food as if it were sacrificed to an
idol. And since their conscience is weak, it is
defiled.
For if any
man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the
idol’s temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be
emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
For if someone with a weak conscience sees you who are well informed eating in an
idol’s temple, will he not be encouraged to eat food sacrificed to idols?
Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
Do I say this from a human
perspective? Doesn’t the Law say the same thing?
But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this to suggest that something be done for me. Indeed, I would rather die than let
anyone nullify my
boast.
For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
Though I am free of obligation to
anyone, I make myself a slave to
everyone, to
win as
many as possible.
And every
man that striveth for the
mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
Everyone who competes in the games trains with strict discipline. They do it for a crown that is perishable, but we do it for a crown that is imperishable.
But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them, for they were struck down in the wilderness.
There hath no
temptation taken you but such as is common to
man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be
tempted above that ye are able; but will with the
temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
No
temptation has seized you except what is common to
man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be
tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are
tempted, He will also provide an escape, so that you can stand up under it.
For we being many are one bread, and one body: for we are all partakers of that one bread.
Because there is one
loaf, we who are
many are one body; for we all
partake of the one
loaf.
Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth.
No one should seek his own good, but the good of others.
But if any
man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord’s, and the
fulness thereof:
But if someone tells you, “This food was offered to idols,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience—
Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man’s conscience?
the other one’s conscience, I mean, not your own. For why should my freedom be determined by someone else’s conscience?
Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved.
as I also try to please
everyone in all I do. For I am not seeking my own good, but the good of
many, that they may be saved.
But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.
But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
Every
man praying or
prophesying, having his head covered, dishonoureth his head.
Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
For a
man indeed ought not to cover his head,
forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the
man.
A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.
For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.
Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
For just as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a
man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?
Doesn’t nature itself teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
But if any
man seem to be
contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.
If
anyone is inclined to dispute this, we have no other practice, nor do the churches of God.
For there must be also
heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made
manifest among you.
And indeed, there must be differences among you to show which of you are approved.
After the same
manner also he took the cup, when he had
supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as
oft as ye drink it, in
remembrance of me.
In the same way, after
supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in
remembrance of Me.”
Wherefore
whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord,
unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
Therefore,
whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy
manner will be guilty of
sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
That is why
many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen
asleep.
And if any
man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto
condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.
If
anyone is
hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you come together it will not result in judgment. And when I come, I will give instructions about the remaining matters.
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no
man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus
accursed: and that no
man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be
cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
Now to each one the
manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
But all these worketh that one and the
selfsame Spirit, dividing to every
man severally as he will.
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines.
For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
The body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.
For the body is not one member, but many.
For the body does not consist of one part, but of many.
But now are they many members, yet but one body.
As it is, there are many parts, but one body.
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a
man, I put away
childish things.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a
man, I set aside
childish ways.
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no
man understandeth him;
howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.
There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.
Assuredly, there are
many different languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
and the secrets of his heart will be made known. So he will fall facedown and worship God,
proclaiming, “God is truly among you!”
If any
man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one
interpret.
If
anyone speaks in a tongue, two, or at most three, should speak in turn, and someone must
interpret.
If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
If
anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, let him acknowledge that what I am writing you is the Lord’s command.
But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
Let all things be done decently and in order.
But everything must be done in a proper and orderly manner.
For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man.
But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
But each in his own turn: Christ the firstfruits; then at His coming, those who belong to Him.
For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith, all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.
For “God has put everything under His feet.” Now when it says that everything has been put under Him, this clearly does not include the One who put everything under Him.
If after the
manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for to
morrow we die.
If I fought wild beasts in Ephesus for human motives, what did I gain? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for
tomorrow we die.”
Be not
deceived: evil communications corrupt good
manners.
Do not be
deceived: “Bad company corrupts good character.”
But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
But someone will ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?”
And so it is written, The first
man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a
quickening spirit.
So it is written: “The first man Adam became a living being;” the last Adam a life-giving spirit.
The first
man is of the earth,
earthy: the second
man is the Lord from heaven.
The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven.
As is the
earthy, such are they also that are
earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.
As was the earthly man, so also are those who are of the earth; and as is the heavenly man, so also are those who are of heaven.
And as we have borne the image of the
earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.
And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so also shall we bear the likeness of the heavenly man.
because a great door for effective work has opened to me, even though
many oppose me.
Let no
man therefore
despise him: but conduct him forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him with the brethren.
No one, then, should treat him with contempt. Send him on his way in peace so that he can return to me, for I am expecting him along with the brothers.
If
anyone does not love the Lord, let him be under a
curse. Come, O Lord!
Ye also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of
many persons
thanks may be given by
many on our behalf.
as you help us by your prayers. Then
many will give
thanks on our behalf for the favor shown us in answer to their prayers.
For out of much
affliction and
anguish of heart I wrote unto you with
many tears; not that ye should be
grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.
For through
many tears I wrote you out of great distress and
anguish of heart, not to
grieve you but to let you know how much I love you.
Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.
The punishment imposed on him by the majority is sufficient for him.
Now
thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh
manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.
For we are not as
many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of
sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.
For we are not like so
many others, who
peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with
sincerity, as men sent from God.
Forasmuch as ye are
manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in
fleshy tables of the heart.
It is clear that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.
Instead, we have
renounced secret and shameful ways. We do not practice
deceit, nor do we
distort the word of God. On the contrary, by open
proclamation of the truth, we
commend ourselves to every
man’s conscience in the sight of God.
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
For we which live are
alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made
manifest in our
mortal flesh.
For we who are alive are always
consigned to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our
mortal body.
For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the
thanksgiving of
many redound to the glory of God.
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is extending to more and more people may overflow in
thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
For which cause we
faint not; but though our outward
man perish, yet the inward
man is renewed day by day.
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we
persuade men; but we are made
manifest unto God; and I trust also are made
manifest in your consciences.
Therefore, since we know what it means to fear the Lord, we try to
persuade men. What we are is clear to God, and I hope it is clear to your conscience as well.
Wherefore henceforth know we no
man after the flesh:
yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
So from now on we regard no one according to the flesh. Although we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Therefore if
anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away. Behold, the new has come!
As sorrowful, yet
alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making
many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.
sorrowful, yet always
rejoicing; poor, yet making
many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
