1 Corinthians 4:3-6

4:3 So for me, it is a minor matter that I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself. 4:4 For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not acquitted because of this. The one who judges me is the Lord. 4:5 So then, do not judge anything before the time. Wait until the Lord comes. He will ¹  bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the motives of hearts. Then each will receive recognition ²  from God.

4:6 I have applied these things to myself and Apollos because of you, brothers and sisters, ³  so that through us you may learn “not to go beyond what is written,” so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of the one against the other.

[4:5]  ¹ tn Grk “time, until the Lord comes, who will bring to light.”

[4:5]  ² tn Or “praise.”

[4:6]  ³ tn Grk “brothers.” See note on the phrase “brothers and sisters” in 1:10.
