1 Corinthians - Chapter: 4

>
4:1Let men thus wyse esteme vs, euen as the ministers of Christ, and disposers of the secretes of of God.
4:2Furthermore it is requyred of the dysposers, that they be found faithfull.
4:3Wyth me it is but a very smal thinge, that I shoulde be iudged of you, eyther of (mans daye). No I iudge not myne owne selfe.
4:4I knowe nought by my selfe: yet am I not therby iustified. It is the Lorde that iudgeth me.
4:5Therfore iudge nothinge before the tyme vntill the Lorde come, who wyll lyghten thinges, that are hyd in darckenes, and open the counsels of the hertes. And then shall euery man haue praise of God.
4:6These thinges brethren I haue described in myne owne person and Apollos for youre sakes, that ye myght learne by vs, that no man counte of him selfe beionde that, which is aboue written: that one swell not against another for anye mans cause.
4:7For who preferreth the? What haste thou, that thou hast not receyued? Yf thou haue receyued it ewhy reioyseste thou as thoughe thou haddeste not receiued it?
4:8Now ye are ful: now ye are made rych: ye reigne as kinges without vs: and I would to God ye dyd reygne that we might reygne wyth you.
4:9Me thinketh that God hath sente forth vs, which are Apostles for the lowest, of al as it were men appointed to death. For we are a gasyng stoke vnto the world, and to the aungels, and to men.
4:10We are foles for Christes sake and ye are wise thorow Christe. We are weake, and ye are stronge. Ye are honorable, and we are despised.
4:11Euen vnto this daye we honger and thyrst, and are naked, and are boffetted wyth fystes, and haue no certayne dwellinge place,
4:12and labour workinge wyth oure handes. We are reuiled, & yet we blesse. We are persecuted and suffer it.
4:13We are euyl spoken of and we pray. We are made as it were the filthines of the worlde, the ofscowring of all thynges, euen vnto this time.
4:14I wryte not these thinges to shame you but as my beloued sonnes I warne you.
4:15For thoughe ye haue ten thousand instructours in Christ: yet haue ye not many fathers. In Christe Iesu, I haue begotten you thorowe the Gospell.
4:16Wherfore I desyre you to folowe me.
4:17For this cause haue I sent vnto you Tymotheus, which is my deare sonne, and faithfull in the Lorde, whiche shall put you in remembraunce of my waies, whiche I haue in Christ euen as I teache euery wher in all congregations.
4:18Some swell as though, I would come no more at you.
4:19But I wil come to you shortly yf God wil: and will knowe not the wordes of them, which swel, but the power,
4:20for the kyngdom of God is not in wordes, but in power.
4:21What wyll ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rodde, or els in loue and in the spyryte of mekenes?

 

4:1Let a man so thinke of vs, as of the ministers of Christ, and disposers of the secrets of God:
4:2And as for the rest, it is required of the disposers, that euery man be found faithfull.
4:3As touching me, I passe very litle to be iudged of you, or of mans iudgement: no, I iudge not mine owne selfe.
4:4For I know nothing by my selfe, yet am I not thereby iustified: but he that iudgeth me, is the Lord.
4:5Therefore iudge nothing before the time, vntill the Lord come, who will lighten things that are hid in darkenesse, and make the counsels of the hearts manifest: and then shall euery man haue praise of God.
4:6Nowe these things, brethren, I haue figuratiuely applied vnto mine owne selfe and Apollos, for your sakes, that ye might learne by vs, that no man presume aboue that which is written, that one swell not against another for any mans cause.
4:7For who separateth thee? and what hast thou, that thou hast not receiued? if thou hast receiued it, why reioycest thou, as though thou haddest not receiued it?
4:8Nowe ye are full: nowe ye are made rich: ye reigne as kings without vs, and would to God ye did reigne, that we also might reigne with you.
4:9For I thinke that God hath set forth vs the last Apostles, as men appointed to death: for we are made a gasing stocke vnto the worlde, and to the Angels, and to men.
4:10We are fooles for Christes sake, and ye are wise in Christ: we are weake, and ye are strong: ye are honourable, and we are despised.
4:11Vnto this houre we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and haue no certaine dwelling place,
4:12And labour, working with our owne handes: we are reuiled, and yet we blesse: we are persecuted, and suffer it.
4:13We are euill spoken of, and we pray: we are made as the filth of the world, the offskowring of all things, vnto this time.
4:14I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloued children I admonish you.
4:15For though ye haue tenne thousand instructours in Christ, yet haue ye not many fathers: for in Christ Iesus I haue begotten you through the Gospel.
4:16Wherefore, I pray you, be ye folowers of me.
4:17For this cause haue I sent vnto you Timotheus, which is my beloued sonne, and faithfull in the Lord, which shall put you in remembrance of my wayes in Christ as I teache euery where in euery Church.
4:18Some are puffed vp as though I woulde not come vnto you.
4:19But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will knowe, not the wordes of them which are puffed vp, but the power.
4:20For the kingdome of God is not in worde, but in power.
4:21What will ye? shall I come vnto you with a rod, or in loue, and in ye spirite of meekenes?

 

4:1Let a man so account of vs, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.
4:2Moreouer, it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithfull.
4:3But with mee it is a very small thing that I should bee iudged of you, or of mans iudgement: yea, I iudge not mine owne selfe.
4:4For I know nothing by my selfe, yet am I not hereby iustified: but hee that iudgeth me is the Lord.
4:5Therefore iudge nothing before the time, vntill the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkenesse, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall euery man haue prayse of God.
4:6And these things, brethren, I haue in a figure transferred to my selfe, and to Apollo, for your sakes: that ye might learne in vs not to thinke of men, aboue that which is written, that no one of you bee puffed vp for one against another.
4:7For who maketh thee to differ from another? And what hast thou that thou didst not receiue? Now if thou didst receiue it, why doest thou glory as if thou hadst not receiued it?
4:8Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye haue reigned as kings without vs, and I would to God ye did reigne, that we also might reigne with you.
4:9For I thinke that God hath set forth vs the Apostles last, as it were approued to death. For wee are made a spectacle vnto the world, and to Angels, and to men.
4:10We are fooles for Christs sake, but ye are wise in Christ. We are weake, but ye are strong: yee are honourable, but we are despised.
4:11Euen vnto this present houre we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and haue no certaine dwelling place,
4:12And labour, working with our owne hands: being reuiled, wee blesse: being persecuted, we suffer it:
4:13Being defamed, we intreate: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the off-scouring of all things vnto this day.
4:14I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloued sonnes I warne you.
4:15For though you haue ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet haue yee not many fathers: For in Christ Iesus I haue begotten you through the Gospel.
4:16Wherefore I beseech you, be yee followers of me.
4:17For this cause haue I sent vnto you Timotheus, who is my beloued sonne, and faithfull in the Lord, who shal bring you into remembrance of my wayes which be in Christ, as I teach euery where in euery Church.
4:18Nowe some are puffed vp as though I would not come to you.
4:19But I wil come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will knowe, not the speach of them which are puffed vp, but the power.
4:20For the kingdome of God is not in word, but in power.
4:21What will ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rod, or in loue, and in the spirit of meekenesse?
