For who of men knows the things of men except the spirit of man in him? so also the things of God no one knows, except the Spirit of God.

And the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness to him: and he cannot know, for they are spiritually examined.

For who knew the mind of the Lord, who shall instruct him And we have the mind of Christ.

I have given you milk to drink, and not food; for ye were not able, but neither now are ye yet able.

For yet are ye carnal: for wherefore envy in you, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?

For when a certain one should say, I truly am of Paul; and another, I of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

For we are workers together with God: the agriculture of God, ye are the building of God.

For none is able to lay another foundation above that laid, which is Jesus the Christ.

The work of each shall be manifested: for the day shall manifest, for in fire it is revealed; and the work of each, what sort it is, the fire shall prove.

If the work of any one shall be burned, he shall be caused damage: and he shall be saved; and so as by fire.

If any one destroy the temple of God, him will God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which ye are.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it has been written, He seizing the wise in their deceptions.

Therefore let none boast in men. For all things are yours;

For I know nothing by myself; but in this I have not been justified: and he examining me is the Lord.

And these things, brethren, I transformed to myself and to Apollos for you; that ye might learn in us not to think above what has been written, lest ye be puffed up one above one against the other.

For who distinguishes thee? and what hast thou which thou didst not receive? and if thou also didst receive, why dost thou boast, as not having received?

For I think that God has exhibited us the last sent, as exposed to death; for we were a theatre to the world, and to messengers, and to men.

We foolish for Christ, and ye wise in Christ; we weak, and ye strong; ye honourable, and we dishonoured

For if ye have ten thousand preceptors in Christ, but not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus by the good news I begat you.

For the kingdom of God not in word, but in power.

In general is fornication heard among you, and such fornication which is not named in the nations, for any to have his father's wife.

For I truly, as being at a distance in body, and being present in spirit, have already, as being present, judged him having so worked this.

To deliver such a one to Satan for the ruin of the flesh, that the spirit might be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

Therefore cleanse out the old leaven, that ye may be a new mixture, as ye are unleavened. For also our pascha was sacrificed for us, Christ:

And not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the rapacious, or idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.

For what to me also to judge them without? do ye yourselves judge them within

For confusion I speak to you. So is there not one wise with you, who will be able to judge between his brother?

Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods: and God will also leave unemployed this and them. And the body not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

Or know ye not that he joined to a harlot is one body? for they shall be, he says, they two into one flesh.

For ye were bought for a price: then glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are of God.

And of what ye wrote to me: good for a man not to touch a woman.

Deprive ye not one another, except somewhat of an agreement for a time, that ye might have leisure for fasting and prayer; and again upon the same ye might come together, lest Satan tempt you for your want of self command.

For I will all men to be as also myself. But each has his own favor of God, the one truly thus, and the other thus.

And I say to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they remain also as I.

And if they have not self command, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to be set on fire.

For the unbelieving husband was consecrated in the wife, and the unbelieving wife was consecrated in the husband: for then are our children unclean; and now are they holy.

For what knowest thou, O wife, if thou shalt save the husband or what knowest thou, O hushand, if thou shalt save the wife?

A servant wert thou called? let it not concern thee: for if thou art able to be free, rather make use of it.

For the servant called in the Lord, is the freedman of the Lord: likewise also the freedman called, is the servant of Christ.

Ye were bought for a price; be ye not servants of men.

But for virgins I have not an order of the Lord: and I give an opinion as compassionated by the Lord to be faithful.

I think therefore this to be good for the present necessity, that it is good for a man to be thus.

And they using this world, as not using; for the form of this world passes away.

But I will you to be free from care. The unmarried cares for things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord:

And he married cares for the things of the world, how he shall please the wife.

The wife and virgin have been divided. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, that she might be holy also in body and spirit: and she married cares for the things of the world, how she shall please her husband.

And this I say for the advantage of yourselves; not that I shall cast a net upon you, but for the becoming, and occupied assiduously for the Lord without being turned away.

The woman was bound by law for as much time as her husband lives; and if her husband be set to sleep, she is free to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

And concerning sacrifice to idols, we know, (for we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, and love builds the house.

For also though they are called gods, whether in heaven, whether upon the earth, (for there are many gods, and many lords,)

But to us one God, the Father, of whom all things, and we for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom all things, and we by him.

And food sets us not before God: for neither, if we eat, do we abound; neither if we eat not, do we want.

For if any one see thee having knowledge reclining in the idol's temple, shall not his consciousness, being weak, be built up to eat the sacrifices to idols;

And shall the weak brother be destroyed upon thy knowledge, for whom Christ died?

Am I not sent? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are ye not my work in the Lord

If to others I am not sent, but surely I am to you: for the seal of my sending are ye in the Lord.

For in the law of Moses has been written, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox grinding. Is there not care to God for oxen?

Or does he say altogether on account of us? For it was written on account of us: that he ploughing ought to plough upon hope; and he grinding upon hope, to participate with his hope.

But I used none of these things: and I wrote not these things, that thus it might be with me: for good to me rather to die, than that any should render my boasting void.

For if I announce the good news, there is no boasting to me: for necessity is laid upon me; and woe is to me, if I announce not the good news!

For if of free will I do this, I have reward: and if unwillingly, I have been entrusted with a stewardship.

For being free from all, I have subjected myself to all, that I might gain the more.

And every one contending for the prize, has self command in all things. These surely therefore that they might receive a corruptible crown; and we an incorruptible.

And all drank the same spiritual drink: for they drank of the spiritual Rock following; and the Rock was Christ.

But God was not contented with the most of them: for they were overthrown in the desert.

And all those happened types to them; and it was written for our reminding, to whom the ends of the times have arrived.

That, one bread, one body, we are many: for we all partake of one bread.

For of the Lord the earth, and its fulness.

And if any one say to you, This is sacrificed to an idol, eat not, for him making it known, and consciousness: for of the Lord the earth, and its fulness:

And consciousness, I say, not thine, but another's: for that why is my freedom judged by another's consciousness

And if I partake by grace, why am I defamed for what I give thanks?

And every woman praying or prophesying with head uncovered shames her head: for it is one and the same to her having been shaved.

For if the woman is not covered, let her also be shorn: and if shameful to the woman to be shorn or shaven, let her be covered.

For truly the man ought not to have the head covered, being the image and glory of God: and the woman is the glory of the man.

For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

For also the man was not created through the woman; but the woman through the man.

Therefore the woman ought to have power upon the head for the angels.

For as the woman by the man, so also the man by the woman; and all things of God.

Judge in yourselves: is it suitable for a woman to pray to God uncovered?

And if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for the hair has been given her for a cloak.

And this announcing I approve not, that not for the better come ye together, but for the worse.

For truly first, ye coming together in the church, I hear divisions to be among you; and some part I believe.

For there must be also sects among you, that the tried might be made manifest among you.

For each takes his own supper in eating: and one is truly hungry, and one is intoxicated.

For, have ye not houses for eating and drinking? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them not having? What should I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise not.

For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, in the night which he was delivered up, took bread:

And having given thanks, he brake, and said, Take ye, eat; this is my body, broken for you: this do ye for my remembrance.

Likewise the cup also, after supping, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: this do ye, as often as ye drink, for my remembrance.

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye announce the Lord's death till he come.

For he eating and drinking unworthily, eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

For this many among you weak and sick, and enough are asleep.

For if we examined ourselves, we should not be judged.

And if any hunger, let him eat in the house; lest ye come together for judgment. And the rest when I come I will regulate.

And to each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for profit.

For truly to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, is one body: so also is Christ.

For also in one Spirit were we all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or free; and we have all been given to drink into one Spirit.

For also the body is not one member, but many.

That no division be in the body; but the members should care the same for one another.

For we know by parts, and we prophesy by parts.
