Chapter 6

1


 

  Dare any one of you, having a matter against another, prosecute his suit before the unjust, and not before the saints?  

 

 

--

2


 

  Do ye not then know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy of [the] smallest judgments?  

 

 

--

3


 

  Do ye not know that we shall judge angels? and not then matters of this life?  

 

 

--

4


 

  If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those [to judge] who are little esteemed in the assembly.  

 

 

--

5


 

  I speak to you [to put you] to shame. Thus there is not a wise person among you, not even one, who shall be able to decide between his brethren!  

 

 

--

6


 

  But brother prosecutes his suit with brother, and that before unbelievers.  

 

 

--

7


 

  Already indeed then it is altogether a fault in you that ye have suits between yourselves. Why do ye not rather suffer wrong? why are ye not rather defrauded?  

 

 

--

8


 

  But ye do wrong, and defraud, and this [your] brethren.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Do ye not know that unrighteous [persons] shall not inherit [the] kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who make women of themselves, nor who abuse themselves with men,  

 

 

--

10


 

  nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor [the] rapacious, shall inherit [the] kingdom of God.  

 

 

--

11


 

  And these things were some of you; but ye have been washed, but ye have been sanctified, but ye have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.  

 

 

--

12


 

  All things are lawful to me, but all things do not profit; all things are lawful to me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.  

 

 

--

13


 

  Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will bring to nothing both it and them: but the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.  

 

 

--

14


 

  And God has both raised up the Lord, and will raise us up from among [the dead] by his power.  

 

 

--

15


 

  Do ye not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then, taking the members of the Christ, make [them] members of a harlot? Far be the thought.  

 

 

--

16


 

  Do ye not know that he [that is] joined to the harlot is one body? for the two, he says, shall be one flesh.  

 

 

--

17


 

  But he that [is] joined to the Lord is one Spirit.  

 

 

--

18


 

  Flee fornication. Every sin which a man may practise is without the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body.  

 

 

--

19


 

  Do ye not know that your body is [the] temple of the Holy Spirit which [is] in you, which ye have of God; and ye are not your own?  

 

 

--

20


 

  for ye have been bought with a price: glorify now then God in your body.
