1 Corinthians 4:8-10
New American Standard Bible 1995
8 You are (A)already filled, you have already become rich, you have become kings without us; and indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you. 9 For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men (B)condemned to death; because we (C)have become a spectacle to the world, [a]both to angels and to men. 10 We are (D)fools for Christ’s sake, but (E)you are prudent in Christ; (F)we are weak, but you are strong; you are distinguished, but we are without honor.

1 Corinthians 4:8-10
New International Version
8 Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich!(A) You have begun to reign—and that without us! How I wish that you really had begun to reign so that we also might reign with you! 9 For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession, like those condemned to die(B) in the arena. We have been made a spectacle(C) to the whole universe, to angels as well as to human beings. 10 We are fools for Christ,(D) but you are so wise in Christ!(E) We are weak, but you are strong!(F) You are honored, we are dishonored!
