For I fear - lest, by any means, when I come, not such as I wish, should I find you, and, I, should be found by you, such as ye do not wish; - lest, by any means, I should find strife, jealousy, outbursts of wrath, factions, railings, whisperings, puffed up pretensions, confusions; - Lest, when I again come, my God should humble me in regard to you, - and I should grieve over many who had before sinned, and not repented of the impurity, and fornication, and wantonness which they had committed.
For it hath been signified unto me, concerning you, my brethren, - by them who are of the household of Chloe, - that there are strifes among you, Now I mean this, - that, each one of you, is saying - I, indeed, am of Paul, but, I, of Apollos, but, I, of Cephas, but, I, of Christ: The Christ is divided! Was, Paul, crucified for you? Or, into the name of Paul, were ye immersed?
For ye are yet fleshly. For, whereas there are, among you, jealousy and strife, are ye not, fleshly, and, after the manner of men, walking? For, as soon as one beginneth to say - I, indeed, am of Paul! and another - I, of Apollos! are ye not, men?
For, first of all, - when ye come together in assembly, I hear that divisions among you exist, - and, in part, I believe it; For there must needs be, even parties among you, that, the approved, themselvesmay become manifest among you.
