PAUL, a called apostle of Jesus Christ, by the will of God, and Sostlienes my brother,

He also will establish you even to the end, and make you blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; and I will set aside the understanding of the prudent.

So, then, judge nothing be fore the time, till the Lord comes, who will bring to light the secret works of darkness, and will also make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall each have his praise from God.

but I will come to you quickly, if the Lord will; and I will know, not the speech of those who have become arrogant, but the power.

But God will judge those who are without. So then judge, and put away that wicked man from among you.

All meats are lawful for me: but all are not profitable. All are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under subjection by any.

Meats for the stomach, and the stomach for meats; but God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for lewdness, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body:

and God has raised, up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.

But if you should marry, you would not sin. And if a virgin should marry, she would not sin. But such will have affliction in the flesh. But I spare you.

But he that stands firm in his purpose, having no necessity to give his daughter in marriage, but has liberty with respect to his own will, and has thus decided in his own heart, that he will keep his daughter a virgin, does well.

The wife is bound as long as her husband lives; but if her husband die, she is free to be married to whom she will, only in the Lord.

For, if any one see you, who have knowledge, reclining at table in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened, so that he will eat meats offered to idols?

and will not the weak brother, for whom Christ died, perish through your knowledge?

For which reason, if meat cause my brother to fall, I will never eat meat, lest I cause my brother to fall.

No trial has come upon you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tried more than you are able to bear; but he will, with the trial, make a way to escape, so that you be able to bear up under it.

and if any one is hungry, let him eat at home, that you come not together for condemnation. But other things I will set in order when I come.

Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in tongues, in what will I profit you, unless I speak to you by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophecy, or by teaching?

For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for battle?

So, also, unless you, with the tongue, utter words that are intelligible, how shall that which is spoken be known? for you will speak into the air.

If, then, I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be to him that speaks a barbarian; and he that speaks will be a barbarian to me.

What, then, is it? I will pray with the spirit which is given to me, and I will pray with my understanding also. I will sing with the spirit that is given to me, and I will sing with my understanding also.

Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit that is given to you, how will he that occupies the place of the unlearned man say Amen, when you give thanks, since he understands not what you say?

In the law it is written: Through men of other tongues and other lips will I speak to this people; and not even thus will they hear me, says the Lord.

If, then, the whole church come together into the same place, and all speak in tongues, and there come in unlearned men, or unbelievers, will they not say that you are mad?

and the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God, and report that God is really among you.

If, to speak as a man, I have fought with wild beasts at Ephesus, 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?

And when I come, whatever per sons you approve, I will send with letters to carry your favor to Jerusalem.

Now I will come to you, when I have passed through Macedonia, for I intend to go through Macedonia;

But I will continue in Ephesus till Pentecost:

As it respects Apollos my brother, I urged him much to go to you with the brethren, yet he was not at all inclined to go now; but he will go when he has a suitable time.
