Verse
YLT
Young's Literal Translation
BSB
Berean Standard Bible
Let
a
man
so reckon
us as officers
of Christ ,
and stewards of the secrets
of God ,
So then,
men
ought
to
regard
us as servants
of Christ and stewards of the mysteries
of God .
and
as
to
the
rest,
it is required in
the
stewards that one
may
be found faithful ,
Now
it is required of
stewards that they
be found faithful .
and
to
me
it
is
for
a
very little thing
that
by
you
I may
be
judged ,
or by man's
day
, but
not even myself
do
I
judge ,
I
care
very little ,
however,
if
I am
judged by
you
or by any
human
court.
In
fact
, I
do
not even judge myself.
for
of
nothing
to
myself
have
I
been
conscious
, but not in
this
have
I
been
declared
right
--
and
he
who
is
discerning
me is the Lord :
My
conscience
is
clear
, but that
does
not vindicate
me .
It
is the Lord who
judges
me.
so,
then,
nothing before the time judge
ye,
till
the Lord may
come,
who
will both
bring to light the
hidden things
of
the
darkness ,
and will manifest
the counsels
of the
hearts ,
and
then
the
praise
shall
come
to
each from 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 did
transfer
to myself and to
Apollos because
of
you
, that in
us
ye
may learn not to think
above
that
which
hath
been
written ,
that
ye
may
not be
puffed
up
one
for
one against
the
other,
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 doth
make
thee
to
differ
? and
what hast
thou,
that thou
didst
not receive? and if thou
didst
also
receive, why dost
thou
glory
as not having
received
?
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?
Already ye
are
having
been
filled,
already ye
were
rich ,
apart
from
us ye
did
reign
, and
I would
also
ye
did
reign
, that we also
with you may
reign
together,
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 did
set
forth
us the
apostles last
--
as
appointed to
death ,
because
a spectacle we
became
to the world, and
messengers,
and
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 .
we `
are '
fools because
of
Christ, and
ye
wise in Christ ;
we `
are '
ailing
, and
ye
strong ;
ye
glorious
, and
we dishonoured;
We are fools for
Christ, but
you
are
wise in Christ .
We are weak
, but
you
are
strong .
You
are
honored
, but
we are
dishonored.
unto
the
present
hour we both
hunger,
and thirst
, and
are naked
, and
are buffeted,
and
wander
about
,
To
this
very
hour we are
hungry
and thirsty
, we
are poorly
clothed
, we
are brutally
treated
, we
are
homeless.
and
labour,
working
with `
our '
own hands ;
being
reviled
, we bless; being
persecuted, we suffer
;
We
work
hard
with our own hands .
When
we
are
vilified
, we bless; when
we
are
persecuted, we endure
it
;
being
spoken
evil
of
, we entreat;
as
filth
of
the
world
we did
become --
of all
things
an
offscouring
--
till
now
.
when
we
are
slandered
, we answer
gently.
Up
to
this
moment
we have
become the
scum
of the
earth,
the
refuse
of
the
world
.
Not `as'
putting
you
to shame do
I
write
these
things
, but as my beloved children I
do
admonish,
I
am
not writing
this
to shame you
, but to
warn
you
as my beloved children .
for
if a
myriad
of
child-conductors
ye
may
have in Christ, yet
not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus ,
through the good
news,
I
--
I
did
beget
you;
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.
I call
upon
you ,
therefore,
become
ye
followers
of
me ;
Therefore
I urge
you to
imitate
me .
because
of
this
I sent to
you Timotheus
, who
is
my child,
beloved and faithful in the Lord ,
who
shall
remind you of my ways
in Christ, according
as
everywhere in every assembly
I
teach
.
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
.
And
as if I were not coming unto
you certain
were
puffed
up;
Some
of
you
have
become
arrogant,
as if I were not coming to
you .
but I will come quickly
unto
you, if the Lord may
will
, and I will know
not the
word
of
those
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.
for not
in
word
is
the reign
of God ,
but in
power ?
For the kingdom
of God is
not
a
matter
of
talk
but of
power .
what
do ye
wish
? with
a
rod
shall I come unto
you, or in love ,
with a spirit also
of
meekness
?
Which
do you
prefer
? Shall I come to
you with
a
rod
, or in love and
with a gentle
spirit?
