So us, should regard a man as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

In this case moreover, it is required in the stewards, that faithful one may be found.

Me however to [the] smallest matter it is, that by you I may be examined, or by a human court. In fact neither myself do I examine.

Nothing for against myself I have been conscious of, yet not by this have I been justified; the [One] however judging me [the] Lord is.

So then, not before [the] time anything do judge, until when may have come the Lord, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the motives of the hearts; and then the praise will come to each from God.

These things now, brothers, I have applied to myself and Apollos on account of you, so that in us you may learn , not beyond what [things] has been written, that not one for one you be puffed up over the other.

Who for you makes different? What now have you which not you did receive? If now also you did receive [it], why boast you as not having received [it]?

Already satiated you are; already you have been enriched; apart from us you reigned, and I wish that really you did reign, so that also we you may reign with.

I think for, God us apostles last has exhibited, as appointed to death, because a spectacle we have become to the world, both to angels and to men.

We [are] fools on account of Christ, you however wise in Christ; we weak, you however strong; You honored, we however without honor.

As far as the present hour, both we hunger and thirst, and are poorly clad, and are buffeted, and wander homeless,

and we toil, working with [our] own hands. Being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we endure;

being defamed, we entreat. As [the] scum of the earth we have become, of all [the] refuse, until now.

Not shaming you do I write these things, but as children my beloved, admonishing [you].

If for ten thousand guardians you shall have in Christ, yet not many fathers; in for Christ Jesus, through the gospel, I you begot.

I exhort therefore you, imitators of me do become.

On account of this I sent to you Timothy, who is my child, beloved and faithful in [the] Lord, who you will remind of the ways of me that [are] in Christ Jesus, as everywhere in every church I teach.

As to not coming now of me to you, were puffed up some.

I will come however shortly to you, if the Lord wishes, and I will find out not the talk of those puffed up, but the power.

Not for in word the kingdom of God [is], but in power.

What desire you? With a rod I may come to you, or in love, a spirit then of gentleness?
