And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brethren, that ye also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to
admonish one another.
For I will not
dare to speak of any of those things which Christ hath not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles
obedient, by word
and deed,
I will not
presume to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me in leading the Gentiles to obedience by word
and deed,
Through mighty signs
and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem,
and round about unto
Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

Illyricum, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ.
But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.

But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;

Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey,
and to be brought on my way
thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.

And after I have enjoyed your company for a while, you can
equip me for my journey.
For it hath pleased them of
Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
For
Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to make a contribution for the poor among the saints in Jerusalem.
It hath pleased them
verily;
and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in
carnal things.
They were pleased to do it,
and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in their spiritual blessings, they are
obligated to minister to them with material blessings.
When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.
So after I have completed this service
and have safely delivered this
bounty to them, I will set off to Spain by way of you.

fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.

beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ’s sake,

strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

urge you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ
and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in my struggle by praying to God for me.
That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints;
Pray that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in
Judea,
and that my service in Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints there,
That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.
so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and together with you be refreshed.
That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints,
and that ye assist her in
whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer of many,
and of myself also.
Welcome her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints,
and assist her with anything she may need from you. For she has been a great help to many people, including me.

Now I
beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions
and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned;
and avoid them.
Now I
urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who
create divisions
and obstacles that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Turn away from them.
For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own
belly;
and by good words
and fair speeches
deceive the hearts of the simple.
For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk
and flattery they
deceive the hearts of the
naive.
For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am
glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good,
and simple concerning evil.
Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I
rejoice over you. But I want you to be wise about what is good
and innocent about what is evil.

bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

Now to him that is of power to
stablish you according to my gospel,
and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the
mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,
Now to Him who is able to
strengthen you by my gospel
and by the
proclamation of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the
mystery concealed for ages past
But now is made manifest,
and by the scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the
everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith:
but now revealed and made known through the writings of the prophets by the command of the eternal God, in order to lead all nations to the obedience that comes from faith—
Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,
Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are
sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs
and ours:
To the church of God in Corinth, to those
sanctified in Christ Jesus
and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord
and ours:
Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all
utterance,
and in all knowledge;
For in Him you have been enriched in every way, in all speech and all knowledge,

beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing,
and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind
and in the same judgment.

Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul;
and I of Apollos;
and I of
Cephas;
and I of Christ.
What I mean is this: Individuals among you are saying, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow
Cephas,” or “I follow Christ.”
And I
baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I
baptized any other.
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
and will bring to nothing the understanding of the
prudent.
For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will
frustrate.”
For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom,
But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
Because the
foolishness of God is wiser than men;
and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
For the
foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom,
and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.
But God hath chosen the
foolish things of the world to
confound the wise;
and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to
confound the things which are mighty;
But God chose the
foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.
And base things of the world,
and things which are
despised, hath God chosen,
yea,
and things which are not, to bring to
nought things that are:
He chose the lowly
and despised things of the world,
and the things that are not, to
nullify the things that are,
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom,
and righteousness,
and sanctification,
and redemption:
It is because of Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God: our righteousness,
holiness,
and redemption.
And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with
excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.
For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ,
and him
crucified.
For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ
and Him
crucified.
And I was with you in weakness,
and in fear,
and in much
trembling.
I came to you in weakness
and fear,
and with much
trembling.
And my speech
and my preaching was not with
enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit
and of power:
My message
and my preaching were not with
persuasive words of wisdom, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,
But we speak the wisdom of God in a
mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
No, we speak of the
mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began.
Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
And this is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.
But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually
discerned.
The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are
foolishness to him,
and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually
discerned.
And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto
carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
Brothers, I could not address you as spiritual, but as worldly—as infants in Christ.
I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for solid food. In fact, you are still not ready,
For ye are yet
carnal: for whereas there is among you
envying,
and strife,
and divisions, are ye not
carnal,
and walk as men?
for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy
and dissension among you, are you not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man?
For while one saith, I am of Paul;
and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not
carnal?
For when one of you says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere men?
Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
What then is Apollos?
And what is Paul? They are servants through whom you believed, as the Lord has assigned to each his
role.
I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
I planted the seed and Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.
Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor.
According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation,
and another buildeth
thereon. But let every man take
heed how he buildeth
thereupon.
By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as an
expert builder,
and someone else is building on it. But each one must be careful how he builds.
Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.
his
workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire,
and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work.
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Do you not know that you
yourselves are God’s temple,
and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?
If any man
defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
If
anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy,
and you are that temple.
And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
And again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are
futile.”
And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.
and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
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 who maketh thee to differ from another?
and what hast thou that thou
didst not receive? now if thou
didst receive it, why
dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?
For who makes you so superior? What do you have that you did not receive?
And if you did receive it, why do you
boast as though you did not?
Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.
Already you have all you want. Already you have become rich. Without us, you have become kings. How I wish you really were kings, so that we might be kings with you!
For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a
spectacle unto the world,
and to angels,
and to men.
For it seems to me that God has displayed us apostles at the end of the
procession, like prisoners appointed for death. We have become a
spectacle to the whole world, to angels as well as to men.
Even unto this present hour we both hunger,
and thirst,
and are naked,
and are
buffeted,
and have no certain dwellingplace;
To this very hour we are
hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clothed, we are
brutally treated, we are homeless.
Being
defamed, we intreat: we are made as the
filth of the world,
and are the
offscouring of all things unto this day.
when we are
slandered, we answer gently. Up to this moment we have become the
scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
For this cause have I sent unto you
Timotheus, who is my beloved son,
and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into
remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.
That is why I have sent you
Timothy, my beloved
and faithful child in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which is exactly what I teach everywhere in every church.
But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will,
and will know, not the speech of them which are
puffed up, but the power.
But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing,
and then I will find out not only what these
arrogant people are saying, but what power they have.
What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love,
and in the spirit of
meekness?
Which do you
prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love
and with a gentle spirit?
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?
For I
verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,
Although I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit, and I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did this, just as if I were present.
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,
When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus and I am with you in spirit, along with the power of the Lord Jesus,
Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the
covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.
I was not including the sexually immoral of this world, or the
greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world.
Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust,
and not before the saints?
If any of you has a
grievance against another, how
dare he go to law before the unrighteous instead of before the saints!
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world?
And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge
trivial cases?
But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
Instead, one brother goes to law against another, and this in front of unbelievers!
Nay, ye do wrong,
and defraud,
and that your brethren.
Instead, you
yourselves cheat and do wrong, even against your own brothers!
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are
sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus,
and by the Spirit of our God.
And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were
sanctified, you were justified, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ
and by the Spirit of our God.
Meats for the
belly,
and the
belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it
and them. Now the body is not for
fornication, but for the Lord;
and the Lord for the body.
“Food for the stomach and the stomach for food,” but God will destroy them both. The body is not intended for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
By His power God raised the Lord from the dead, and He will raise us also.
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ,
and make them the members of an
harlot? God
forbid.
Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ
and unite them with a
prostitute? Never!
What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;
For ye are bought with a price: therefore
glorify God in your body,
and in your spirit, which are God’s.
you were bought at a price. Therefore
glorify God with your body.
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.
Let the husband render unto the wife due
benevolence:
and likewise also the wife unto the husband.
The husband should
fulfill his
marital duty to his wife,
and likewise the wife to her husband.
The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.
The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife.
Do not deprive each other, except by mutual consent
and for a time, so you may
devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again, so that
Satan will not
tempt you through your lack of self-control.
But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.
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.
I say therefore to the unmarried
and widows, It is good for them if they
abide even as I.
Now to the unmarried and widows I say this: It is good for them to remain unmarried, as I am.
