|
3. But G1161 with me G1698 it is G2076 a G1519 very small thing G1646 that G2443 I should be judged G350 of G5259 you G5216 , or G2228 of G5259 man G442 's judgment G2250 : yea G235 , I judge G350 not G3761 mine own self G1683 .

|
6. And G1161 these things G5023 , brethren G80 , I have in a figure transferred G3345 to G1519 myself G1683 and G2532 to Apollos G625 for your sakes G1223 G5209 ; that G2443 ye might learn G3129 in G1722 us G2254 not G3361 to think G5426 of men above G5228 that which G3739 is written G1125 , that G2443 no G3361 one G1520 of you be puffed up G5448 for G5228 one G1520 against G2596 another G2087 .
|
|
7. 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?
|
7. For G1063 who G5101 maketh thee to differ G1252 G4571 from another ? and G1161 what G5101 hast G2192 thou that G3739 thou didst not G3756 receive G2983 ? now G1161 if G1487 thou didst G2532 receive G2983 it, why G5101 dost thou glory G2744 , as G5613 if G1487 thou hadst not G3361 received G2983 it?
|
|
8. 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.
|
8. Now G2235 ye are G2075 full G2880 , now G2235 ye are rich G4147 , ye have reigned as kings G936 without G5565 us G2257 : and G2532 I would to God G3785 G1065 ye did reign G936 , that G2443 we G2249 also G2532 might reign with G4821 you G5213 .
|
|
9. 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.
|
9. For G1063 I think G1380 that G3754 God G2316 hath set forth G584 us G2248 the G3588 apostles G652 last G2078 , as it were G5613 appointed to death G1935 : for G3754 we are made G1096 a spectacle G2302 unto the G3588 world G2889 , and G2532 to angels G32 , and G2532 to men G444 .
|
|
10. We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.
|
10. We G2249 are fools G3474 for Christ's sake G1223 G5547 , but G1161 ye G5210 are wise G5429 in G1722 Christ G5547 ; we G2249 are weak G772 , but G1161 ye G5210 are strong G2478 ; ye G5210 are honorable G1741 , but G1161 we G2249 are despised G820 .
|
|
11. Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwellingplace;
|
11. Even unto G891 this present G737 hour G5610 we both G2532 hunger G3983 , and G2532 thirst G1372 , and G2532 are naked G1130 , and G2532 are buffeted G2852 , and G2532 have no certain dwelling place G790 ;
|
|
12. And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:
|
12. And G2532 labor G2872 , working G2038 with our own G2398 hands G5495 : being reviled G3058 , we bless G2127 ; being persecuted G1377 , we suffer G430 it:
|
|
13. Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.
|
13. Being defamed G987 , we entreat G3870 : we are made G1096 as G5613 the filth G4027 of the G3588 world G2889 , and are the offscouring G4067 of all things G3956 unto G2193 this day G737 .
|
|
14. I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.
|
14. I write G1125 not G3756 these things G5023 to shame G1788 you G5209 , but G235 as G5613 my G3450 beloved G27 sons G5043 I warn G3560 you.
|
|
15. For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.
|
15. For G1063 though G1437 ye have G2192 ten thousand G3463 instructors G3807 in G1722 Christ G5547 , yet G235 have ye not G3756 many G4183 fathers G3962 : for G1063 in G1722 Christ G5547 Jesus G2424 I G1473 have begotten G1080 you G5209 through G1223 the G3588 gospel G2098 .
|
|
16. Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.
|
16. Wherefore G3767 I beseech G3870 you G5209 , be G1096 ye followers G3402 of me G3450 .

17. 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.
|
17. For this cause G1223 G5124 have I sent G3992 unto you G5213 Timothy G5095 , who G3739 is G2076 my G3450 beloved G27 son G5043 , and G2532 faithful G4103 in G1722 the Lord G2962 , who G3739 shall bring you into remembrance G363 G5209 of my G3450 ways G3598 which G3588 be in G1722 Christ G5547 , as G2531 I teach G1321 every where G3837 in G1722 every G3956 church G1577 .
|
|
18. Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.
|
18. Now G1161 some G5100 are puffed up G5448 , as though G5613 I G3450 would not G3361 come G2064 to G4314 you G5209 .
|
|
19. 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.
|
19. But G1161 I will come G2064 to G4314 you G5209 shortly G5030 , if G1437 the G3588 Lord G2962 will G2309 , and G2532 will know G1097 , not G3756 the G3588 speech G3056 of them which are puffed up G5448 , but G235 the G3588 power G1411 .
|
|
20. For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
|
20. For G1063 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 is not G3756 in G1722 word G3056 , but G235 in G1722 power G1411 .
|
|
21. What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?
|
21. What G5101 will G2309 ye? shall I come G2064 unto G4314 you G5209 with G1722 a rod G4464 , or G2228 in G1722 love G26 , and G5037 in the spirit G4151 of meekness G4236 ?
