1 Corinthians 4:4

Christ's Servant, God's Steward

³ But it is a very small thing to me that I might be appraised by you or by a day of mankind. Yet neither do I appraise myself, ⁴ for I know nothing on myself. Yet I have not been made righteous in this, but he who appraises me is Lord. ⁵ Therefore do not judge anything before time, until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make public the deliberations of the hearts. And then praise will come to each man from God.
