1Dare[G5111]any[G5100] of you[G5216], having[G2192] a matter[G4229]against[G4314]another[G2087], go to law[G2919]before[G1909] the unjust[G94], and[G2532]not[G3780]before[G1909] the saints?[G40]
2
Do ye[G1492]not[G3756]know[G1492]that[G3754] the saints[G40] shall judge[G2919] the world?[G2889]and[G2532]if[G1487] the world[G2889] shall be judged[G2919]by[G1722]you[G5213], are ye[G2075]unworthy[G370] to judge[G2922] the smallest matters?[G1646]
3
Know ye[G1492]not[G3756]that[G3754] we shall judge[G2919]angels?[G32] how much more[G3386] things that[G3754] pertain to this life?[G982]
4If[G1437]then[G3303] ye have[G2192]judgments[G2922] of things pertaining to this life[G982], set[G2523]them[G5128] to judge who are least esteemed[G1848]in[G1722] the church[G1577].
5
I speak[G3004]to[G4314]your[G5213]shame[G1791]. Is it so[G3779], that[G3739]there[G2076] is not[G3756] a wise man[G4680]among[G1722]you?[G5213] no, not[G3761]one[G1520]that[G3739] shall be able[G1410]to[G4314]judge[G1252]between[G303]his[G846]brethren?[G80]
6But[G235]brother[G80] goeth to law[G2919]with[G3326]brother[G80], and[G2532]that[G5124]before[G1909] the unbelievers[G571].
7Now[G2235]therefore[G3303] there is[G2076]utterly[G3654] a fault[G2275]among[G1722]you[G5213], because[G3754]ye[G91]go[G2192] to law[G2917] one with[G3326]another[G1438]. Why[G1302] do ye[G650]not[G3780]rather[G3123] take wrong?[G91]why[G1302] do ye[G650]not[G3780]rather[G3123] suffer yourselves to be defrauded?[G650]
8Nay[G235], ye[G5210] do wrong[G91], and[G2532]defraud[G650], and[G2532]that[G5023] your brethren[G80].
9
Know ye[G1492]not[G3756]that[G3754] the unrighteous[G94]shall[G2816]not[G3361]inherit[G2816] the kingdom[G932] of God?[G2316]Be[G4105]not[G3361]deceived[G4105]: neither[G3777]fornicators[G4205], nor[G3777]idolaters[G1496], nor[G3777]adulterers[G3432], nor[G3777]effeminate[G3120], nor[G3777] abusers of themselves with mankind[G733],
10Nor[G3777]thieves[G2812], nor[G3756]covetous[G4123], nor[G3756]drunkards[G3183], nor[G3756]revilers[G3060], nor[G3756]extortioners[G727], shall inherit[G3756] the kingdom[G932] of God[G2316].
11And[G2532]such[G5023]were[G2258] some of you[G5100]: but[G235] ye are washed[G628], but[G235] ye are sanctified[G37], but[G235] ye are justified[G1344]in[G1722] the name[G3686] of the Lord[G2962]Jesus[G2424], and[G2532]by[G1722] the Spirit[G4151] of our[G2257]God[G2316].
12
All things[G3956]are[G4851]lawful[G1832] unto me[G3427], but[G235] all things[G3956]are[G4851]not[G3756]expedient[G4851]: all things[G3956]are[G4851]lawful[G1832] for me[G3427], but[G235]I[G1473]will[G1850]not[G3756] be brought under the power[G1850]of[G5259]any[G5100].
13Meats[G1033] for the belly[G2836], and[G2532] the belly[G2836] for meats[G1033]: but[G1161]God[G2316] shall destroy[G2673]both[G2532]it[G5026]and[G2532]them[G5023]. Now[G1161] the body[G4983] is not[G3756] for fornication[G4202], but[G235] for the Lord[G2962]; and[G2532] the Lord[G2962] for the body[G4983].
14And[G1161]God[G2316]hath[G1453]both[G2532] raised up[G1453] the Lord[G2962], and[G2532]will[G1825]also[G2532] raise up[G1825]us[G2248]by[G1223] his own[G846]power[G1411].
15
Know ye[G1492]not[G3756]that[G3754]your[G5216]bodies[G4983]are[G2076] the members[G3196] of Christ?[G5547] shall I[G142]then[G3767]take[G142] the members[G3196] of Christ[G5547], and make[G4160] them the members[G3196] of an harlot?[G4204] God forbid[G3361].
16What?[G2228] know ye[G1492]not[G3756]that[G3754]he[G5346] which is[G2076]joined[G2853] to an harlot[G4204]is[G2076]one[G1520]body?[G4983]for[G1063]two[G1417], saith he[G5346], shall be[G2071]one[G1519]flesh[G4561].
17But[G1161] he that is[G2076]joined[G2853] unto the Lord[G2962]is[G2076]one[G1520]spirit[G4151].
18Flee[G5343]fornication[G4202]. Every[G3956]sin[G265]that[G3739] a man[G444]doeth[G4160]is[G2076]without[G1622] the body[G4983]; but[G1161] he that[G1437] committeth fornication[G4203]sinneth[G264]against[G1519] his own[G2398]body[G4983].
19What?[G2228] know ye[G1492]not[G3756]that[G3754]your[G5216]body[G4983]is[G2076] the temple[G3485]of[G575] the Holy[G40]Ghost[G4151]which[G3739]is[G2076]in[G1722]you[G5213], which[G3739]ye[G1492]have[G2192]of[G575]God[G2316], and[G2532]ye[G1492]are[G2075]not[G3756]your[G5216]own?[G1438]
20For[G1063] ye are[G2076]bought[G59] with a price[G5092]: therefore[G1211]glorify[G1392]God[G2316]in[G1722]your[G5216]body[G4983], and[G2532]in[G1722]your[G5216]spirit[G4151], which[G3748]are[G2076]God[G2316]'s.
