Now these things, brothers, I applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us ye might learn not to think above that which is written, so that ye may not be puffed up, one over the one against the other.

I do not write these things shaming you, but I warn you as my beloved children.

Indeed therefore whenever ye have mundane legal disputes, men who are disdained by the church, these ye seat to judge.

Instead ye do wrong, and defraud, and these things to brothers.

And some of you were these things, but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were made righteous in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.

The foods are for the belly and the belly for foods, but God will abolish both this and these things. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Do I say these things according to man, or does not the law also say these things?

But I have used none of these things, and I did not write these things so that it should be done to me this way. For it is good for me rather to die, than that any man should make my boasting empty.

But these things became our examples, for us not to be men who lust for evil things as those also lusted.

Now all these things happened to those men for examples, and they were written for our admonition, to whom the ends of the ages came.

But the one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each man individually as it wills.

And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety,

And now remain faith, hope, love, these three, but the greater of these is love.

And when I arrive, whomever ye may approve by letters, I will send these men to bring your gift to Jerusalem.

And I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because these men filled your lack.
