so that, as it is written, "Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord."

According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.

For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours,

So let a man think of us as Christ's servants, and stewards of God's mysteries.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

Let the husband fulfill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

But if they do not have self-control, let them marry. For it's better to marry than to burn.

(but if she departs, let her remain unmarried, or else be reconciled to her husband), and that the husband not leave his wife.

But to the rest I?not the Lord?say, if any brother has an unbelieving wife, and she is content to live with him, let him not leave her.

The woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he is content to live with her, let her not leave her husband.

Yet if the unbeliever departs, let there be separation. The brother or the sister is not under bondage in such cases, but God has called us to peace.

Only, as the Lord has distributed to each man, as God has called each, so let him walk. So I command in all the churches.

Was anyone called having been circumcised? Let him not become uncircumcised. Has anyone been called in uncircumcision? Let him not be circumcised.

Let each man stay in that calling in which he was called.

Were you called being a bondservant? Do not let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.

Brothers, let each man, in whatever condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.

But if any man thinks that he is behaving inappropriately toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of her age, and if need so requires, let him do what he desires. He does not sin. Let them marry.

For if I proclaim the Good News, I have nothing to boast about; for necessity is laid on me; but woe is to me, if I do not proclaim the Good News.

Neither let us commit sexual immorality, as some of them committed, and in one day twenty-three thousand fell.

Neither let us test the Christ, as some of them tested, and perished by the serpents.

Therefore let him who thinks he stands be careful that he does not fall.

Let no one seek his own, but his neighbor's good.

For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest your coming together be for judgment. The rest I will set in order whenever I come.

You know that when you were heathen, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.

What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.

If any man speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.

But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the church, and let him speak to himself, and to God.

Let the prophets speak, two or three, and let the others discern.

But if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent.

let the women keep silent in the churches, for it has not been permitted for them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as the Law also says.

If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a woman to chatter in the church.

If any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.

Let all things be done decently and in order.

If I fought with animals at Ephesus for human purposes, what does it profit me? If the dead are not raised, then "let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die."

As we have borne the image of those made of dust, let us also bear the image of the heavenly.

On the first day of the week, let each one of you save, as he may prosper, that no collections be made when I come.

Therefore let no one despise him. But set him forward on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brothers.

Let all that you do be done in love.

If any man does not love the Lord, let him be accursed. Come, Lord.
