[1] So let a man think of us as Christ’s servants and stewards of God’s mysteries. [2] Here, moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful. [3] But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by a human court. Yes, I don’t even judge my own self. [4] For I know nothing against myself. Yet I am not justified by this, but he who judges me is the Lord. [5] Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God. [6] Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another. [7] For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn’t receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? [8] You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you! [9] For I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men. [10] We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor. [11] Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place. [12] We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure. [13] Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now. [14] I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. [15] For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, you don’t have many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News. [16] I beg you therefore, be imitators of me. [17] Because of this I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every assembly. [18] Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you. [19] But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing. And I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power. [20] For God’s Kingdom is not in word, but in power. [21] What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?
King James Version
[1] LetG3049 a manG444 soG3779 accountG3049(PresMidPasDepImpr) of us,G2248 asG5613 of the ministersG5257 of Christ,G5547 andG2532 stewardsG3623 of the mysteriesG3466 of God.G2316 [2] MoreoverG3063 it is requiredG2212(PresPasInd) inG1722 stewards,G3623 thatG2443 a manG5100 be foundG2147(AorPasSubj) faithful.G4103 [3] ButG1161 with meG1698 it isG2076(PresInd) a very small thingG1519 thatG2443 I should be judgedG350(AorPasSubj) ofG5259 you,G5216 orG2228 ofG5259 man’sG442 judgment:G2250 yea,G235 I judgeG350(PresActInd) notG3761 mine own self.G1683 [4] ForG1063 I knowG4894(PerfActInd) nothingG3762 by myself;G1683 yetG235 am IG1344 notG3756 herebyG1722 justified:G1344(PerfPasInd) butG1161 he that judgethG350(PresActPtc) meG3165 isG2076(PresInd) the Lord.G2962 [5] ThereforeG5620 judgeG2919(PresActImpr) nothingG3361 beforeG4253 the time,G2540 untilG2193 the LordG2962 come,G2064(Aor2ActSubj) whoG3739 bothG2532 will bring to lightG5461(FutActInd) the hidden thingsG2927 of darkness,G4655 andG2532 will make manifestG5319(FutActInd) the counselsG1012 of the hearts:G2588 andG2532 thenG5119 shall every manG1538 haveG1096(FutMidDepInd) praiseG1868 ofG575 God.G2316 [6] AndG1161 these things,G5023 brethren,G80 I have in a figure transferredG3345(AorActInd) toG1519 myselfG1683 andG2532 [to] ApollosG625 forG1223 your sakes;G5209 thatG2443 ye might learnG3129(Aor2ActSubj) inG1722 usG2254 notG3361 to thinkG5426(PresActInf) [of men] aboveG5228 thatG2443 whichG3739 is written,G1125(PerfPasInd) that noG3363 oneG1520 of you be puffed upG5448(PresPasSubj) forG5228 oneG1520 againstG2596 another.G2087 [7] ForG1063 whoG5101 makethG1252 theeG4571 to differG1252(PresActInd) [from another]? andG1161 whatG5101 hast thouG2192(PresActInd) thatG3739 thou didstG2983 notG3756 receive?G2983(Aor2ActInd) now ifG1499 thou didst receiveG2983(Aor2ActInd) [it], whyG5101 dost thou glory,G2744(PresMidPasDepInd) asG5613 if thou hadstG2983 notG3361 receivedG2983(Aor2ActPtc) [it]? [8] NowG2235 ye areG2075(PresInd) full,G2880(PerfPasPtc) nowG2235 ye are rich,G4147(AorActInd) ye have reigned as kingsG936(AorActInd) withoutG5565 us:G2257 andG2532 I would to GodG3785 ye did reign,G936(AorActInd) thatG2443 weG2249 alsoG2532 might reign withG4821(AorActSubj) you.G5213 [9] ForG1063 I thinkG1380(PresActInd) thatG3754 GodG2316 hath set forthG584(AorActInd) usG2248 the apostlesG652 last,G2078 asG5613 it were appointed to death:G1935 forG3754 we are madeG1096(AorPasDepInd) a spectacleG2302 unto the world,G2889 andG2532 to angels,G32 andG2532 to men.G444 [10] WeG2249 [are] foolsG3474 forG1223 Christ’sG5547 sake,G1223 butG1161 yeG5210 [are] wiseG5429 inG1722 Christ;G5547 weG2249 [are] weak,G772 butG1161 yeG5210 [are] strong;G2478 yeG5210 [are] honourable,G1741 butG1161 weG2249 [are] despised.G820 [11] EvenG891 unto this presentG737 hourG5610 weG3983 bothG2532 hunger,G3983(PresActInd) andG2532 thirst,G1372(PresActSubj) andG2532 are naked,G1130(PresActInd) andG2532 are buffeted,G2852(PresPasInd) andG2532 have no certain dwellingplace;G790(PresActInd) [12] AndG2532 labour,G2872(PresActInd) workingG2038(PresMidPasDepPtc) with our ownG2398 hands:G5495 being reviled,G3058(PresPasPtc) we bless;G2127(PresActInd) being persecuted,G1377(PresPasPtc) we suffer it:G430(PresMidPasDepInd) [13] Being defamed,G987(PresPasPtc) we intreat:G3870(PresActInd) we are madeG1096(AorPasDepInd) asG5613 the filthG4027 of the world,G2889 [and are] the offscouringG4067 of all thingsG3956 untoG2193 this day.G737 [14] I writeG1125(PresActInd) notG3756 these thingsG5023 to shameG1788(PresActPtc) you,G5209 butG235 asG5613 myG3450 belovedG27 sonsG5043 I warnG3560(PresActInd) [you]. [15] ForG1063 thoughG1437 ye haveG2192(PresActSubj) ten thousandG3463 instructorsG3807 inG1722 Christ,G5547 yetG235 [have ye] notG3756 manyG4183 fathers:G3962 forG1063 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424 IG1473 have begottenG1080(AorActInd) youG5209 throughG1223 the gospel.G2098 [16] WhereforeG3767 I beseechG3870(PresActInd) you,G5209 be yeG1096(PresMidPasDepImpr) followersG3402 of me.G3450 [17] ForG1223 thisG5124 causeG1223 have I sentG3992(AorActInd) unto youG5213 Timotheus,G5095 whoG3739 isG2076(PresInd) myG3450 belovedG27 son,G5043 andG2532 faithfulG4103 inG1722 the Lord,G2962 whoG3739 shall bringG363 youG5209 into remembranceG363(FutActInd) of myG3450 waysG3598 whichG3588 be inG1722 Christ,G5547 asG2531 I teachG1321(PresActInd) every whereG3837 inG1722 everyG3956 church.G1577 [18] NowG1161 someG5100 are puffed up,G5448(AorPasInd) as thoughG5613 IG3450 wouldG2064 notG3361 comeG2064(PresMidPasDepPtc) toG4314 you.G5209 [19] ButG1161 I will comeG2064(FutMidDepInd) toG4314 youG5209 shortly,G5030 ifG1437 the LordG2962 will,G2309(AorActSubj) andG2532 will know,G1097(FutMidDepInd) notG3756 the speechG3056 of them which are puffed up,G5448(PerfPasPtc) butG235 the power.G1411 [20] ForG1063 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316 [is] notG3756 inG1722 word,G3056 butG235 inG1722 power.G1411 [21] WhatG5101 will ye?G2309(PresActInd) shall I comeG2064(Aor2ActSubj) untoG4314 youG5209 withG1722 a rod,G4464 orG2228 inG1722 love,G26 andG5037 [in] the spiritG4151 of meekness?G4236
