each one's work shall be manifest; for the day shall show it, because it shall be revealed by fire, and the same fire shall try every man's work what it is.

I have applied these things figuratively, brothers, to myself and Apollos on your account, that you may learn by us not to [go beyond] what is written, that you may not be puffed up for one against another.

For who made you to differ? And what have you that you did not receive? And if you received, why do you boast as one that receives not?

What do you wish? shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of meekness?

For what business have I to judge those without? Do you not judge those within?

CONCERNING what you wrote to me, it is good for a man not to touch a woman;

But if any one thinks that he behaves improperly to his virgin, if she is past her prime, and it must be so, let him do what he wishes; he does not sin; let them marry.

What then is my reward? That preaching I may make the gospel without expense, that I may not abuse my right in the gospel.

For no trial has befallen you but what is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tried beyond what you are able, but with the trial will order the event, that you may be able to endure.

I speak as to wise men; judge what I say.

What then do I say? that an idol sacrifice is any thing, or that an idol is any thing?

But what the gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons, and not to God; and I do not wish you to be partakers with demons.

Have you not [food] to eat and drink at your houses? or do you despise the church of God, and shame those who have not [houses]? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you? In this I commend you not.

For I received of the Lord, what I also delivered to you; that on the night in which he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread

But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you by a revelation, or by a knowledge, or by a prophecy, or by a doctrine?

So of irrational objects making a sound, whether a flute or harp; if it makes no distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is played on the flute or harp?

So also you by a tongue if you utter a word not easily understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for you will speak to the air.

What then is [to be done]? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding;

since if you bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupies the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to your thanksgiving, since he knows not what you say?

What then is [to be done] brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a doctrine, has a revelation, has an interpretation; let all things be done for edification.

For I delivered to you at first, what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

but by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not in vain, but I labored more abundantly than they all, but not I but the grace of God with me.

Else what will they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? and why are they baptized for them?

If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, of what advantage is it to me? If the dead rise not, let us eat and drink, for to-morrow we die.

But some one will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?

Foolish man, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies;
