1 Corinthians 4:1-20

4:1

Let
<3049> (0)

a man
<444>

so
<3779>

account
<3049> (5737)

of us
<2248>_,

as
<5613>

of the ministers
<5257>

of Christ
<5547>_,

and
<2532>

stewards
<3623>

of the mysteries
<3466>

of God
<2316>_.

4:2

<3739>
<1161>

Moreover
<3063>

it is required
<2212> (5743)

in
<1722>

stewards
<3623>_,

that
<2443>

a man
<5100>

be found
<2147> (5686)

faithful
<4103>_.

4:3

But
<1161>

with me
<1698>

it is
<2076> (5748)

a very small thing
<1519> <1646>

that
<2443>

I should be judged
<350> (5686)

of
<5259>

you
<5216>_,

or
<2228>

of
<5259>

man's
<442>

judgment
<2250>_:

yea
<235>_,

I judge
<350> (5719)

not
<3761>

mine own self
<1683>_.

{judgment: Gr. day}

4:4

For
<1063>

I know
<4894> (5758)

nothing
<3762>

by myself
<1683>_;

yet
<235>

am I
<1344> (0)

not
<3756>

hereby
<1722> <5129>

justified
<1344> (5769)_:

but
<1161>

he that judgeth
<350> (5723)

me
<3165>

is
<2076> (5748)

the Lord
<2962>_.

{know: or, I am not conscious of any fault}

4:5

Therefore
<5620>

judge
<2919> (5720)

nothing
<3361> <5100>

before
<4253>

the time
<2540>_,

until
<2193> <302>

the Lord
<2962>

come
<2064> (5632)_,

who
<3739>

both
<2532>

will bring to light
<5461> (5692)

the hidden things
<2927>

of darkness
<4655>_,

and
<2532>

will make manifest
<5319> (5692)

the counsels
<1012>

of the hearts
<2588>_:

and
<2532>

then
<5119>

shall every man
<1538>

have
<1096> (5695)

praise
<1868>

of
<575>

God
<2316>_.

4:6

And
<1161>

these things
<5023>_,

brethren
<80>_,

I have in a figure transferred
<3345> (5656)

to
<1519>

myself
<1683>

and
<2532>

[to] Apollos
<625>

for
<1223>

your sakes
<5209>_;

that
<2443>

ye might learn
<3129> (5632)

in
<1722>

us
<2254>

not
<3361>

to think
<5426> (5721)

[of men] above
<5228>

that
<2443>

which
<3739>

is written
<1125> (5769)_,

that no
<3363>

one
<1520>

of you be puffed up
<5448> (5747)

for
<5228>

one
<1520>

against
<2596>

another
<2087>_.

4:7

For
<1063>

who
<5101>

maketh
<1252> (0)

thee
<4571>

to differ
<1252> (5719)

[from another]? and
<1161>

what
<5101>

hast thou
<2192> (5719)

that
<3739>

thou didst
<2983> (0)

not
<3756>

receive
<2983> (5627)_?

<1161>

now if
<1499>

thou didst receive
<2983> (5627)

[it], why
<5101>

dost thou glory
<2744> (5736)_,

as
<5613>

if thou hadst
<2983> (0)

not
<3361>

received
<2983> (5631)

[it]? {maketh...: Gr. distinguisheth thee}

4:8

Now
<2235>

ye are
<2075> (5748)

full
<2880> (5772)_,

now
<2235>

ye are rich
<4147> (5656)_,

ye have reigned as kings
<936> (5656)

without
<5565>

us
<2257>_:

and
<2532>

I would to God
<3785> <1065>

ye did reign
<936> (5656)_,

that
<2443>

we
<2249>

also
<2532>

might reign with
<4821> (5661)

you
<5213>_.

4:9

For
<1063>

I think
<1380> (5719)

that
<3754>

God
<2316>

hath set forth
<584> (5656)

us
<2248>

the apostles
<652>

last
<2078>_,

as
<5613>

it were appointed to death
<1935>_:

for
<3754>

we are made
<1096> (5675)

a spectacle
<2302>

unto the world
<2889>_,

and
<2532>

to angels
<32>_,

and
<2532>

to men
<444>_.

{us...: or, us the last apostles, as} {spectacle: Gr. theatre}

4:10

We
<2249>

[are] fools
<3474>

for
<1223> (0)

Christ's
<5547>

sake
<1223>_,

but
<1161>

ye
<5210>

[are] wise
<5429>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_;

we
<2249>

[are] weak
<772>_,

but
<1161>

ye
<5210>

[are] strong
<2478>_;

ye
<5210>

[are] honourable
<1741>_,

but
<1161>

we
<2249>

[are] despised
<820>_.

4:11

Even
<891>

unto this present
<737>

hour
<5610>

we
<3983> (0)

both
<2532>

hunger
<3983> (5719)_,

and
<2532>

thirst
<1372> (5725)_,

and
<2532>

are naked
<1130> (5719)_,

and
<2532>

are buffeted
<2852> (5743)_,

and
<2532>

have no certain dwellingplace
<790> (5719)_;

4:12

And
<2532>

labour
<2872> (5719)_,

working
<2038> (5740)

with our own
<2398>

hands
<5495>_:

being reviled
<3058> (5746)_,

we bless
<2127> (5719)_;

being persecuted
<1377> (5746)_,

we suffer it
<430> (5736)_:

4:13

Being defamed
<987> (5746)_,

we intreat
<3870> (5719)_:

we are made
<1096> (5675)

as
<5613>

the filth
<4027>

of the world
<2889>_,

[and are] the offscouring
<4067>

of all things
<3956>

unto
<2193>

this day
<737>_.

4:14

I write
<1125> (5719)

not
<3756>

these things
<5023>

to shame
<1788> (5723)

you
<5209>_,

but
<235>

as
<5613>

my
<3450>

beloved
<27>

sons
<5043>

I warn
<3560> (5719)

[you].

4:15

For
<1063>

though
<1437>

ye have
<2192> (5725)

ten thousand
<3463>

instructors
<3807>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_,

yet
<235>

[have ye] not
<3756>

many
<4183>

fathers
<3962>_:

for
<1063>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>

Jesus
<2424>

I
<1473>

have begotten
<1080> (5656)

you
<5209>

through
<1223>

the gospel
<2098>_.

4:16

Wherefore
<3767>

I beseech
<3870> (5719)

you
<5209>_,

be ye
<1096> (5737)

followers
<3402>

of me
<3450>_.

4:17

For
<1223> (0)

this
<5124>

cause
<1223>

have I sent
<3992> (5656)

unto you
<5213>

Timotheus
<5095>_,

who
<3739>

is
<2076> (5748)

my
<3450>

beloved
<27>

son
<5043>_,

and
<2532>

faithful
<4103>

in
<1722>

the Lord
<2962>_,

who
<3739>

shall bring
<363> (0)

you
<5209>

into remembrance
<363> (5692)

of my
<3450>

ways
<3598>

which
<3588>

be in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>_,

as
<2531>

I teach
<1321> (5719)

every where
<3837>

in
<1722>

every
<3956>

church
<1577>_.

4:18

Now
<1161>

some
<5100>

are puffed up
<5448> (5681)_,

as though
<5613>

I
<3450>

would
<2064> (0)

not
<3361>

come
<2064> (5740)

to
<4314>

you
<5209>_.

4:19

But
<1161>

I will come
<2064> (5695)

to
<4314>

you
<5209>

shortly
<5030>_,

if
<1437>

the Lord
<2962>

will
<2309> (5661)_,

and
<2532>

will know
<1097> (5695)_,

not
<3756>

the speech
<3056>

of them which are puffed up
<5448> (5772)_,

but
<235>

the power
<1411>_.

4:20

For
<1063>

the kingdom
<932>

of God
<2316>

[is] not
<3756>

in
<1722>

word
<3056>_,

but
<235>

in
<1722>

power
<1411>_.
