I am thankful that I baptized none of you but Crispus and Gaius,

A case of immorality is reported as actually existing among you, an immorality unheard of even among the heathen that a man cohabits with his father's wife.

Your ground for boasting about such a case is not good. Are you not aware that a little yeast will change the whole lump of dough?

When one of you has a grievance against his neighbor, does he dare to go to law before a heathen court, instead of laying the case before God's people?

But I myself have never used any of these rights. And I am not writing this just to make it so in my case, for I had rather die than do that. No one shall rob me of this ground of boasting.

All the brothers wish to be remembered to you. Greet one another with a sacred kiss.
