1 Corinthians 1-16

Mounce Reverse Interlinear New Testament

1 Paul Paulos, called klētos to be an apostle apostolos of Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous by dia the will thelēma of God theos, and kai Sosthenes Sōsthenēs our ho brother adelphos, ² to the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos that ho is eimi in en Corinth Korinthos, to those sanctified hagiazō in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous and called klētos to be saints hagios together syn with all pas those ho in en every pas place topos who call epikaleō on the ho name onoma of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos, both their autos Lord and kai ours hēmeis: ³ Grace charis to you hymeis and kai peace eirēnē from apo God theos our hēmeis Father patēr and kai the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos.

⁴ I am always pantote giving eucharisteō thanks to ho my egō God theos for peri you hymeis because epi of the ho grace charis of ho God theos that ho was given didōmi to you hymeis in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous, ⁵ that hoti in en every pas way you were enriched ploutizō in en him autos in en all pas speech logos and kai all pas knowledge gnōsis— ⁶ just kathōs as the ho testimony martyrion about ho Christ Christos was confirmed bebaioō among en you hymeis— ⁷ so hōste that you hymeis do not mē lack hystereō in en any mēdeis spiritual charisma gift as you wait apekdechomai for the ho revealing apokalypsis of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos. ⁸ He hos · kai will keep bebaioō you hymeis steadfast to heōs the end telos, guiltless anenklētos in en the ho day hēmera of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos. ⁹ God theos is faithful pistos, · ho by dia whom hos you were called kaleō into eis fellowship koinōnia with ho his autos Son hyios, Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios.

¹⁰ I appeal parakaleō to · de you hymeis, brothers adelphos, by dia the ho name onoma of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos, that hina you all pas come to agreement ho and kai that there be eimi no mē divisions schisma among en you hymeis, but de that you be eimi united katartizō in en the ho same autos frame nous of mind and kai the ho same autos judgment gnōmē. ¹¹ For gar it has been reported dēloō to me egō by hypo members of ho Chloe’s household that hoti there are eimi quarrels eris among en you hymeis, my egō brothers adelphos. ¹² What I mean legō · de is this houtos: each hekastos of you hymeis is saying legō, “ I egō am eimi with Paul Paulos,” or de, “ I egō am with Apollos Apollōs,” or de, “ I egō am with Cephas Kēphas,” or de, “ I egō am with Christ Christos.” ¹³ Has Christ Christos been divided merizō? · ho Was Paul Paulos crucified stauroō for hyper you hymeis? Or ē were you baptized baptizō in eis the ho name onoma of Paul Paulos? ¹⁴ I thank eucharisteō · ho God theos that hoti I did baptizō not baptize baptizō any oudeis of you hymeis except ei mē Crispus Krispos and kai Gaius Gaios, ¹⁵ so hina that no mē one tis can say legō that hoti you were baptized baptizō in eis · ho my emos name onoma. ¹⁶ ( I also kai baptized baptizō · de the ho household oikos of Stephanas Stephanas; beyond loipos that I do not ou know oida if ei I baptized baptizō anyone tis else allos.) ¹⁷ For gar Christ Christos did not ou send apostellō me egō to baptize baptizō but alla to preach euangelizō the gospel , and not ou with en eloquent logos wisdom sophia, lest hina mē the ho cross stauros of ho Christ Christos be rendered ineffective kenoō.

¹⁸ For gar the ho message logos · ho of the ho cross stauros is eimi foolishness mōria to those ho who are perishing apollymi, but de to ho us hēmeis who are being saved sōzō it is eimi the power dynamis of God theos. ¹⁹ For gar it is written graphō, “ I will destroy apollymi the ho wisdom sophia of the ho wise sophos, and kai the ho shrewdness synesis of the ho intelligent synetos I will thwart atheteō.” ²⁰ Where pou is the wise sophos person ? Where pou is the scholar grammateus? Where pou is the brilliant syzētētēs debater of ho this houtos age aiōn? Has not ouchi God theos made foolish mōrainō · ho the ho wisdom sophia of the ho world kosmos? ²¹ For gar since epeidē in en the ho wisdom sophia of ho God theos the ho world kosmos did not ou come to know ginōskō God theos through dia · ho wisdom sophia, · ho God theos was pleased eudokeō · ho through dia the ho foolishness mōria of ho what we preach kērygma to save sōzō those ho who believe pisteuō. ²² For epeidē · kai Jews Ioudaios demand aiteō signs sēmeion and kai Greeks Hellēn are looking for zēteō wisdom sophia, ²³ but de we hēmeis preach kēryssō Christ Christos crucified stauroō, a stumbling block skandalon to Jews Ioudaios and de foolishness mōria to Gentiles ethnos. ²⁴ Yet de to those autos who ho are called klētos, both te Jews Ioudaios and kai Greeks Hellēn, Christ Christos is the power dynamis of God theos and kai the wisdom sophia of God theos. ²⁵ For hoti the ho foolishness mōros of ho God theos is eimi wiser sophos than the wisdom of ho men anthrōpos, and kai the ho weakness asthenēs of ho God theos is stronger ischuros than the strength of ho men anthrōpos.

²⁶ Consider blepō · ho your hymeis calling klēsis, brothers adelphos: according to kata worldly standards sarx, not ou many polys of you were wise sophos, not ou many polys were influential dynatos, not ou many polys were of noble eugenēs birth . ²⁷ But alla God theos chose eklegomai the ho foolish mōros things of the ho world kosmos · ho to hina shame kataischunō the ho wise sophos; · kai God theos chose eklegomai the ho weak asthenēs things of the ho world kosmos · ho to hina shame kataischunō the ho strong ischuros; ²⁸ · kai God theos chose eklegomai the ho things that the ho world kosmos considers insignificant agenēs and kai · ho contemptible exoutheneō, · ho what ho is regarded eimi as nothing mē, to hina render useless katargeō the ho things that are eimi, ²⁹ so hopōs that no mē one pas can boast kauchaomai in the presence enōpion of ho God theos. ³⁰ But de you hymeis are eimi of ek him autos in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous, who hos became ginomai for us hēmeis wisdom sophia from apo God theos, and te righteousness dikaiosynē and kai sanctification hagiasmos and kai redemption apolytrōsis, ³¹ so hina that , as kathōs it is written graphō, “ Let kauchaomai the ho one who boasts kauchaomai, boast kauchaomai in en the Lord kyrios.”

2 When I kagō came erchomai to pros you hymeis, brothers adelphos, I did not ou come erchomai with kata excellence hyperochē of speech logos or ē of wisdom sophia as I told katangellō you hymeis about the ho secret martyrion purpose of ho God theos. ² For gar I had decided krinō to know oida nothing tis among en you hymeis except ei mē Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos and kai him houtos crucified stauroō. ³ So I kagō came ginomai to pros you hymeis in en weakness astheneia and kai fear phobos, and kai with en much polys trembling tromos. ⁴ · kai · ho My egō word logos and kai · ho my egō message kērygma were not ou delivered with en persuasive peithos words logos of wisdom sophia, but alla with en a demonstration apodeixis of the Spirit pneuma and kai of power dynamis, ⁵ so hina that · ho your hymeis faith pistis would not mē be eimi based on en the wisdom sophia of men anthrōpos but alla on en the power dynamis of God theos.

⁶ However de, we do speak laleō wisdom sophia among en those ho who are mature teleios, although de it is not ou the wisdom sophia of ho this houtos age aiōn or oude of the ho rulers archōn of ho this houtos age aiōn, who ho are doomed to perish katargeō. ⁷ Rather alla, we speak laleō the wisdom sophia of God theos; a wisdom that ho was hidden apokryptō in en mystery mystērion and that hos God theos had determined proorizō · ho before pro the ho ages aiōn for eis our hēmeis glory doxa. ⁸ None oudeis of the ho rulers archōn of ho this houtos age aiōn understood ginōskō it hos, for gar if ei they had ginōskō, they stauroō would an not ou have crucified stauroō the ho Lord kyrios of ho glory doxa. ⁹ But alla, as kathōs it is written graphō, “ No ou eye ophthalmos has seen, · kai no ou ear ous has heard akouō, · kai nor ou has the mind kardia of man anthrōpos imagined anabainō, the things that hos God theos has prepared hetoimazō · ho for those ho who love agapaō him autos.” ¹⁰ But de God theos has revealed apokalyptō them to us hēmeis · ho through dia his ho Spirit pneuma; for gar the ho Spirit pneuma searches eraunaō everything pas, even kai the ho deep bathos things of ho God theos. ¹¹ For gar who tis among men anthrōpos can know oida the ho thoughts of ho a man anthrōpos except ei mē the ho man’ s own anthrōpos spirit pneuma · ho that ho is in en him autos? In the same houtōs way , · kai no one oudeis can understand ginōskō the ho thoughts of ho God theos except ei mē the ho Spirit pneuma of ho God theos. ¹² · de It was not ou the ho spirit pneuma of the ho world kosmos that we hēmeis received lambanō, but alla the ho Spirit pneuma · ho sent from ek · ho God theos, that hina we might understand oida the ho gifts freely given charizomai to us hēmeis by hypo · ho God theos. ¹³ And kai we speak about laleō these hos things in en words logos not ou taught didaktos by human anthrōpinos wisdom sophia but alla taught didaktos by the Spirit pneuma, expressing synkrinō spiritual truths pneumatikos in spiritual pneumatikos words . ¹⁴ The natural psychikos · de man anthrōpos does not ou receive dechomai the ho things of the ho Spirit pneuma of ho God theos, for gar they are eimi foolishness mōria to him autos; · kai he cannot ou understand ginōskō them because hoti they are spiritually pneumatikōs discerned anakrinō. ¹⁵ But de the ho spiritual pneumatikos person discerns anakrinō · ho all pas things , and de is not himself autos subject to hypo anyone’ s oudeis scrutiny anakrinō. ¹⁶ For gar, “ Who tis has known ginōskō the mind nous of the Lord kyrios, so as to advise symbibazō him autos?” But de we hēmeis have echō the mind nous of Christ Christos.

3 And so kagō, brothers adelphos, I could dynamai not ou speak laleō to you hymeis as hōs spiritual pneumatikos people , but alla rather as hōs people of the flesh sarkinos, as hōs infants nēpios in en Christ Christos. ² I gave potizō you hymeis milk gala, not ou solid brōma food , for gar you were not oupō ready dynamai for it. And alla even now nyn you are not oude yet eti ready dynamai, ³ for gar you are eimi still eti of the flesh sarkikos. For gar while hopou there is jealousy zēlos and kai strife eris among en you hymeis, are you eimi not ouchi of the flesh sarkikos and kai behaving peripateō like kata mere men anthrōpos? ⁴ For gar when hotan one tis says legō, “ I egō follow eimi Paul Paulos,” and de another heteros, “ I egō follow Apollos Apollōs,” are you eimi not ou like everyone anthrōpos else ?

⁵ What tis then oun is eimi Apollos Apollōs? What tis · de is eimi Paul Paulos? Servants diakonos through dia whom hos you came to believe pisteuō, even kai as hōs the ho Lord kyrios assigned didōmi to each hekastos of us. ⁶ I egō planted phyteuō, Apollos Apollōs watered potizō, but alla · ho God theos has been causing the growth auxanō. ⁷ So hōste neither oute the ho one who plants phyteuō nor oute the ho one who waters potizō is eimi anything tis, but alla God theos is the ho one who gives the growth auxanō. ⁸ The ho one who plants phyteuō · de and kai the ho one who waters potizō have eimi a common purpose heis, and de each hekastos will receive lambanō · ho his idios wages misthos on kata the basis of · ho his idios work kopos. ⁹ For gar we are eimi coworkers synergos belonging to God theos. You are eimi God’ s theos field geōrgion, God’ s theos building oikodomē.

¹⁰ According kata to the ho grace charis of ho God theos · ho given didōmi to me egō, like hōs a skilled sophos master architektōn builder I laid tithēmi a foundation themelios, but de someone allos else is building epoikodomeō on it. Let each hekastos one · de take care blepō how pōs he builds epoikodomeō on it. ¹¹ For gar no one oudeis is able dynamai to lay tithēmi a foundation themelios other allos than para that ho which is laid keimai, which hos is eimi Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos. ¹² If ei · de anyone tis is building epoikodomeō on epi the ho foundation themelios with gold chrysos, silver argyros, gems lithos timios, wood xylon, hay chortos, straw kalamē— ¹³ the ho work ergon of each hekastos person will become ginomai evident phaneros, for gar the ho Day hēmera will disclose dēloō it, because hoti it will be revealed apokalyptō by en fire pyr. And kai the ho fire pyr will test dokimazō what sort of hopoios work ergon each hekastos · ho has done eimi. ¹⁴ If ei the ho work ergon that hos someone tis has built on epoikodomeō it remains menō, he will receive lambanō a reward misthos. ¹⁵ If ei someone’ s tis · ho work ergon is burned katakaiō up , he will suffer loss; however de, he himself autos will be saved sōzō, but de only houtōs as hōs through dia fire pyr.

¹⁶ Do you not ou know oida that hoti you are eimi God’ s theos temple naos and kai that · ho God’ s theos Spirit pneuma · ho lives oikeō in en you hymeis? ¹⁷ If ei anyone tis destroys phtheirō · ho God’ s theos temple naos, · ho God theos will destroy phtheirō him houtos. · ho · ho For gar God’ s theos temple naos · ho is eimi holy hagios, and that is what hostis you hymeis are eimi.

¹⁸ Let exapataō no one mēdeis deceive exapataō himself heautou. If ei someone tis among en you hymeis thinks dokeō he is eimi wise sophos in en · ho this houtos age aiōn, let him become ginomai foolish mōros so hina that he may become ginomai wise sophos. ¹⁹ For gar the ho wisdom sophia of ho this houtos world kosmos is eimi folly mōria with para · ho God theos. For gar it is written graphō, “ He ho traps drassomai the ho wise sophos with en · ho their own autos craftiness panourgia.” ²⁰ And kai again palin, “The Lord kyrios knows ginōskō the ho reasonings dialogismos of the ho wise sophos, that hoti they are eimi futile mataios.” ²¹ So hōste then , let no mēdeis one boast kauchaomai with en respect to men anthrōpos. For gar all pas things are eimi yours hymeis, ²² whether eite Paul Paulos or eite Apollos Apollōs or eite Cephas Kēphas or eite the world kosmos or eite life zōē or eite death thanatos or eite the present enistēmi or eite the future mellō— all pas are yours hymeis, ²³ and de you hymeis are Christ’ s Christos, and de Christ Christos is God’ s theos.

4 This is how houtōs one anthrōpos should regard logizomai us hēmeis, as hōs servants hypēretēs of Christ Christos and kai stewards oikonomos of God’ s theos mysteries mystērion. ² In this connection hōde then loipos, it is required zēteō of en · ho stewards oikonomos that hina they tis be found heuriskō trustworthy pistos. ³ But de for me egō it is eimi a matter of the least consequence elachistos that hina I should be judged anakrinō by hypo you hymeis or ē by hypo any human anthrōpinos court hēmera. In fact alla, I do anakrinō not even oude judge anakrinō myself emautou. ⁴ For gar I am synoida not aware of synoida anything oudeis against myself emautou, yet alla not ou because en of this houtos am I acquitted dikaioō. It is eimi the ho · de Lord kyrios who judges anakrinō me egō. ⁵ So then hōste, stop mē passing judgment on krinō anything tis before pro the time kairos, before heōs an the ho Lord kyrios comes erchomai. He hos · kai will bring to light phōtizō the ho hidden kryptos things of ho darkness skotos and kai will disclose phaneroō the ho motives boulē of the ho heart kardia. · kai At that time tote · ho praise epainos will come ginomai to each hekastos from apo · ho God theos.

⁶ I have applied metaschēmatizō all this houtos · de to eis myself emautou and kai Apollos Apollōs for dia your hymeis benefit dia, brothers adelphos, that hina you may learn manthanō by en us hēmeis · ho not mē to go beyond hyper what hos is written graphō, that hina none mē heis of you may be puffed up physioō in favor hyper of · ho one heis against kata · ho another heteros. ⁷ For gar who tis sees anything superior in diakrinō you sy? What tis · de do you have echō that hos you did not ou receive lambanō? And de if ei · kai you received lambanō it, why tis do you boast kauchaomai as hōs if you did not mē receive lambanō it?

⁸ Already ēdē you have eimi all you want korennymi! Already ēdē you are rich plouteō! Without chōris us hēmeis you have begun to reign basileuō! And kai would ophelon that you did reign basileuō, so that hina · kai we hēmeis could reign with symbasileuō you hymeis! ⁹ For gar it seems to me dokeō that · ho God theos has displayed apodeiknymi us hēmeis, the ho apostles apostolos, last eschatos, as hōs men sentenced to death epithanatios, because hoti we have become ginomai a spectacle theatron to the ho world kosmos, both kai to angels angelos and kai to men anthrōpos. ¹⁰ We hēmeis are fools mōros for dia Christ Christos, but de you hymeis are men of wisdom phronimos in en Christ Christos! We hēmeis are weak asthenēs, but de you hymeis are strong ischuros! You hymeis are distinguished endoxos, but de we hēmeis are dishonored atimos! ¹¹ To achri this ho present arti hour hōra · kai we are hungry peinaō and kai thirsty dipsaō, · kai poorly clothed gymniteuō, · kai knocked about kolaphizō, and kai homeless astateō. ¹² · kai We labor kopiaō, working ergazomai with ho our own idios hands cheir. When reviled loidoreō, we bless eulogeō; when persecuted diōkō, we endure anechōmai; ¹³ when slandered dysphēmeō, we respond kindly parakaleō. We have become ginomai, as hōs it were , the scum perikatharma of the ho world kosmos, the refuse peripsēma of all things pas, even heōs now arti.

¹⁴ I am graphō not ou writing graphō these things houtos to shame entrepō you hymeis, but alla to admonish noutheteō you as hōs my egō dear agapētos children teknon. ¹⁵ For gar though ean you have echō innumerable myrios guardians paidagōgos in en Christ Christos, you do not ou have many polys fathers patēr, because gar I egō became gennaō your hymeis father gennaō in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous through dia the ho gospel euangelion. ¹⁶ I urge parakaleō you hymeis, therefore oun, be ginomai imitators mimētēs of me egō. ¹⁷ That is why dia I sent pempō to you hymeis Timothy Timotheos, who hos is eimi my egō beloved agapētos and kai faithful pistos child teknon in en the Lord kyrios. He hos will remind anamimnēskō you hymeis of ho my egō ways hodos · ho in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous, as kathōs I teach didaskō them everywhere pantachou in en every pas church ekklēsia. ¹⁸ Some tis have become arrogant physioō, as hōs though I egō were not mē coming erchomai · de to pros you hymeis. ¹⁹ But de I will come erchomai to pros you hymeis soon tacheōs, if ean the ho Lord kyrios wills thelō, and kai I will find ginōskō out not ou the ho speech logos of these ho arrogant physioō people but alla their ho power dynamis. ²⁰ For gar the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos is not ou a matter of en talk logos but alla of en power dynamis. ²¹ What tis would you prefer thelō? Shall I come erchomai to pros you hymeis with en a rod rhabdos of correction or ē with en love agapē in a spirit pneuma of gentleness prautēs?

5 It is actually holōs reported akouō that there is sexual immorality porneia among en you hymeis, · kai a kind toioutos of immorality porneia that hostis is not oude tolerated even among en · ho Gentiles ethnos, for hōste a man tis is living in sin with echō his ho father’ s patēr wife gynē. ² And kai you hymeis are eimi arrogant physioō! · kai Ought you not ouchi rather mallon to have mourned pentheō, so hina that the ho man who did prassō this houtos deed ergon would be removed airō from ek your hymeis midst mesos? · ho

³ For gar though I egō am absent apeimi in ho body sōma, I am present pareimi · de in ho spirit pneuma; and I have already ēdē passed judgment krinō on the ho one who did katergazomai this houtos, just as hōs though I were present pareimi. ⁴ When synagō you hymeis are assembled synagō in en the ho name onoma of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous and kai · ho I emos am with you in spirit pneuma, with syn the ho power dynamis of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous, ⁵ hand paradidōmi this man toioutos over · ho to ho Satan Satanas for eis the destruction olethros of the ho flesh sarx, so that hina the ho spirit pneuma may be saved sōzō on en the ho Day hēmera of the ho Lord kyrios.

⁶ Your hymeis boasting kauchēma is not ou good kalos. · ho Do you not ou know oida that hoti a little mikros leaven zymē leavens zymoō the whole holos · ho batch phyrama of dough ? ⁷ Get rid ekkathairō of the ho old palaios leaven zymē so that hina you may be eimi a new neos batch phyrama of dough , just kathōs as you really are eimi unleavened azymos. · kai For gar Christ Christos, · ho our hēmeis Passover pascha lamb , has been sacrificed thuō. ⁸ So hōste let us celebrate heortazō the festival , not mē with en the old palaios leaven zymē, not mēde with en the leaven zymē of malice kakia and kai wickedness ponēria, but alla with en the unleavened azymos bread of sincerity eilikrineia and kai truth alētheia.

⁹ I wrote graphō to you hymeis in en my ho letter epistolē not mē to associate with sexually immoral people pornos— ¹⁰ not ou at all pantōs meaning the ho sexually pornos immoral of ho this houtos world kosmos, or ē the ho greedy pleonektēs and kai swindlers harpax, or ē idolaters eidōlolatrēs, since epei then ara you would have opheilō to go exerchomai out ek of the ho world kosmos. ¹¹ But de now nyn I am writing graphō to you hymeis not mē to associate with anyone ean tis who bears the name of onomazō brother adelphos if he is eimi a sexually pornos immoral or ē greedy pleonektēs person , an idolater eidōlolatrēs, slanderer loidoros, drunkard methysos, or ē swindler harpax— not even mēde to eat with synesthiō · ho such a one toioutos. ¹² For gar what tis business is it of mine egō to judge krinō · ho outsiders exō? Is it not ouchi those ho inside esō the church that you hymeis are to judge krinō? ¹³ But de God theos will judge krinō those ho outside exō. · ho “ Remove exairō the ho evil ponēros person from among ek you hymeis.”

6 When echō any tis of you hymeis has echō a legal pragma dispute against pros · ho another heteros, how dare he tolmaō go to law krinō before epi · ho heathen adikos judges and kai not ouchi before epi the ho saints hagios? ² Or ē do you not ou know oida that hoti the ho saints hagios will judge krinō the ho world kosmos? And kai if ei the ho world kosmos is to be judged krinō by en you hymeis, are you eimi incompetent anaxios to try kritērion minor cases elachistos? ³ Do you not ou know oida that hoti we will judge krinō angels angelos, not mēti to mention everyday biōtikos affairs ? ⁴ So oun if ean you have echō ordinary biōtikos cases kritērion, do you appoint kathizō as judges those houtos who ho have no standing exoutheneō in en the ho church ekklēsia? ⁵ I say legō this to pros your hymeis shame entropē! Is there no one oudeis among en you hymeis wise sophos enough dynamai to settle diakrinō a dispute between ana mesos · ho his autos brothers adelphos, ⁶ but alla brother adelphos goes to court krinō against meta brother adelphos, and kai that houtos before epi unbelievers apistos? ⁷ Already ēdē it is eimi altogether holōs a defeat hēttēma for you hymeis, that hoti you have echō lawsuits krima with meta one heautou another . Why dia tis not ouchi rather mallon be wronged adikeō? Why dia tis not ouchi rather mallon be defrauded apostereō? ⁸ But alla you yourselves hymeis wrong adikeō and kai defraud apostereō, and kai this houtos to your own brothers adelphos!

⁹ Do you not ou know oida that hoti the unrighteous adikos will klēronomeō not ou inherit klēronomeō the kingdom basileia of God theos? Do not mē be deceived planaō: neither oute the sexually pornos immoral , nor oute idolaters eidōlolatrēs, nor oute adulterers moichos, nor oute male malakos prostitutes , nor oute homosexuals arsenokoitēs, ¹⁰ nor oute thieves kleptēs, nor oute the greedy pleonektēs, nor ou drunkards methysos, nor ou slanderers loidoros, nor ou swindlers harpax will inherit klēronomeō the kingdom basileia of God theos. ¹¹ And kai some tis of you were eimi guilty of these houtos abominations! But alla you were washed apolouō, you were sanctified hagiazō, you were justified dikaioō in en the ho name onoma of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos and kai by en the ho Spirit pneuma of ho our hēmeis God theos.

¹² “ All pas things are lawful for me egō,”— but alla not ou all pas things are helpful sympherō. “ All pas things are lawful for me egō”— but alla I egō will not ou be overpowered exousiazō by hypo anything tis. ¹³ · ho “ Food brōma is for the ho stomach koilia and kai the ho stomach koilia is for ho food brōma”— · ho and de God theos will destroy katargeō both kai the one houtos and kai the other houtos. But de the ho body sōma is not ou for ho sexual porneia immorality , but alla for the ho Lord kyrios, and kai the ho Lord kyrios for the ho body sōma; ¹⁴ · ho and de God theos both kai has raised egeirō the ho Lord kyrios and kai will raise us hēmeis up exegeirō by dia · ho his autos power dynamis. ¹⁵ Do you not ou know oida that hoti · ho your hymeis bodies sōma are eimi members melos of Christ Christos? Shall I then oun take airō the ho members melos of ho Christ Christos and make poieō them members melos of a prostitute pornē? Never mē ginomai! ¹⁶ Or ē do you not ou know oida that hoti he ho who joins kollaō himself to a ho prostitute pornē is eimi one heis body sōma with her? For gar it says phēmi, “ The ho two dyo will become eimi one heis flesh sarx.” ¹⁷ But de the ho one who joins kollaō himself to the ho Lord kyrios is eimi one heis spirit pneuma with him. ¹⁸ Flee pheugō · ho sexual porneia immorality ! Every pas other hos sin hamartēma a person anthrōpos commits poieō is eimi outside ektos the ho body sōma, but de the ho sexually porneuō immoral person sins hamartanō against eis · ho his idios own body sōma. ¹⁹ Or ē do you not ou know oida that hoti · ho your hymeis body sōma is eimi a temple naos of the ho Holy hagios Spirit pneuma who is in en you hymeis, whom hos you have echō received from apo God theos, and kai you are eimi not ou your heautou own ? ²⁰ For gar you were bought agorazō with a price timē; therefore dē glorify doxazō · ho God theos with en · ho your hymeis body sōma.

7 Now de concerning peri the matters hos you wrote graphō about . Yes, “It is good kalos for a man anthrōpos not mē to have sexual contact haptō with a woman gynē.” ² But de because dia of cases ho of sexual porneia immorality , each hekastos man should have echō · ho his heautou own wife gynē and kai each hekastos woman · ho her idios own husband anēr. ³ The ho husband anēr should fulfill apodidōmi his ho marital responsibility opheilē to his ho wife gynē, and de likewise homoiōs · kai the ho wife gynē to her ho husband anēr. ⁴ For the ho wife gynē does exousiazō not ou have authority exousiazō over ho her idios own body sōma, but alla the ho husband anēr does. In the same homoiōs way , · de · kai the ho husband anēr does exousiazō not ou have authority exousiazō over ho his idios own body sōma, but alla the ho wife gynē does. ⁵ Do not mē deprive apostereō one allēlōn another , except ei perhaps mēti an by ek agreement symphōnos for pros a set time kairos, so hina that you may devote scholazō yourselves to ho prayer proseuchē; then kai come eimi together epi again palin, · ho so that hina Satan Satanas may not mē tempt peirazō you hymeis · ho because dia of · ho your hymeis lack of self-control akrasia. ⁶ This houtos · de I say legō by kata way of concession syngnōmē, not ou of kata command epitagē. ⁷ I wish thelō · de that all pas men anthrōpos were eimi as hōs · kai I myself emautou am. But alla each hekastos has echō his own idios gift charisma from ek God theos, one ho of one kind houtōs and de one ho of another houtōs.

⁸ Now de to the ho unmarried agamos and kai to the ho widows chēra I say legō that it is good kalos for them autos if ean they remain menō single, as hōs I kagō am. ⁹ But de if ei they are not ou practicing self-control enkrateuomai, they should marry gameō; for gar it is eimi better kreittōn to marry gameō than ē to burn pyroō with sexual passion.

¹⁰ To the ho · de married gameō I give this command parangellō ( not ou I egō, but alla the ho Lord kyrios): a wife gynē should chōrizō not mē separate chōrizō from apo her husband anēr ¹¹ ( however de if ean · kai she does chōrizō, let her remain menō unmarried agamos or ē else be reconciled katallassō to her ho husband anēr), and kai a husband anēr should aphiēmi not mē divorce aphiēmi his wife gynē.

¹² To the ho · de rest loipos I say legō ( I egō, not ou the ho Lord kyrios): If ei some tis brother adelphos has echō a wife gynē who is not a believer apistos, and kai she houtos is willing syneudokeō to live oikeō with meta him autos, he should not mē divorce aphiēmi her autos. ¹³ And kai if ei some tis woman gynē has echō a husband anēr who is not a believer apistos, and kai he houtos is willing syneudokeō to live oikeō with meta her autos, she should not mē divorce aphiēmi · ho him anēr. ¹⁴ For gar the ho unbelieving apistos husband anēr is consecrated hagiazō · ho through union with en his ho wife gynē, and kai the ho unbelieving apistos wife gynē is consecrated hagiazō · ho through union with en her ho husband adelphos. Otherwise epei ara · ho your hymeis children teknon would be eimi defiled akathartos, but de as it is nyn, they are eimi holy hagios. ¹⁵ But de if ei the ho unbelieving apistos partner separates chōrizō, let it be so chōrizō. In en such cases toioutos the ho brother adelphos or ē the ho sister adelphē is not ou bound douloō. · ho It is to en · de peace eirēnē that God theos has called kaleō us hymeis. · ho ¹⁶ For gar how tis do you know oida, wife gynē, whether ei you will save sōzō your ho husband anēr? Or ē how tis do you know oida, husband anēr, whether ei you will save sōzō your ho wife gynē?

¹⁷ Only ei mē, as hōs the ho Lord kyrios has assigned merizō to each hekastos person , as hōs God theos has called kaleō each hekastos one , · ho so houtōs let that person conduct peripateō his life . And kai thus houtōs I prescribe diatassō in en all pas the ho churches ekklēsia. ¹⁸ If a man tis was already circumcised peritemnō when he was called kaleō, he should not mē conceal his circumcision epispaomai. If a man tis was not circumcised en when he was called kaleō, he should not mē submit to circumcision peritemnō. ¹⁹ · ho Circumcision peritomē is eimi nothing oudeis and kai · ho uncircumcision akrobystia is eimi nothing oudeis. Rather alla, it is keeping tērēsis God’ s theos commandments entolē that counts. ²⁰ Let menō each hekastos person continue menō in en that condition houtos · ho in which hos he was called kaleō.

²¹ If you were a slave when called kaleō, do not mē be concerned melei about it. However alla, if ei · kai you are able dynamai to gain ginomai your freedom eleutheros, make the most mallon of the opportunity chraomai. ²² For gar the ho one who was called kaleō by en the Lord kyrios as a slave is eimi a freedman apeleutheros of the Lord kyrios. Likewise homoiōs, the ho one who was called kaleō as a free eleutheros person is eimi a slave of Christ Christos. ²³ You were bought agorazō with a price timē; do not mē become ginomai slaves of men anthrōpos. ²⁴ Each hekastos one in the condition in en which hos he was called kaleō, brothers adelphos, in en that houtos condition let him remain menō with para God theos.

²⁵ Now de concerning peri · ho virgins parthenos: I have echō no ou command epitagē from the Lord kyrios, but de I give didōmi my opinion gnōmē as hōs one who has been shown mercy eleeō by hypo the Lord kyrios and is eimi trustworthy pistos. ²⁶ I think nomizō, then oun, that this houtos is hyparchō good kalos because dia of the ho present enistēmi distress anankē— that hoti it is good kalos for a man anthrōpos · ho to remain houtōs as he is eimi. ²⁷ If you are married deō to a wife gynē, do not mē seek zēteō to be set free lysis; if you are free lyō from apo a wife gynē, do not mē seek zēteō a wife gynē. ²⁸ But de if ean · kai you do marry gameō, you have not ou sinned hamartanō, and kai if ean a virgin parthenos marries gameō, · ho she has not ou sinned hamartanō. However de those toioutos who do marry will have echō worldly sarx trouble thlipsis, · ho · ho and de I egō am trying to spare pheidomai you hymeis. ²⁹ And de I say phēmi this houtos, my brothers adelphos: the ho time kairos has eimi grown short systellō. From now on ho those ho who have echō wives gynē should hina · kai be eimi as hōs though they had echō none mē, ³⁰ and kai those ho who mourn klaiō as hōs though they were not mē mourning klaiō, and kai those ho who rejoice chairō as hōs though they were not mē rejoicing chairō, and kai those ho who buy agorazō as hōs though they had no mē possessions katechō, ³¹ and kai those ho who use chraomai the ho world kosmos as hōs though they were not mē absorbed katachraomai in it. For gar the ho form schēma of ho this houtos world kosmos is passing away paragō.

³² I want thelō · de you hymeis to be eimi free from concern amerimnos. An ho unmarried man agamos is concerned merimnaō about the ho things of the ho Lord kyrios, how pōs to please areskō the ho Lord kyrios. ³³ But de a ho married gameō man is concerned merimnaō about the ho things of the ho world kosmos, how pōs to please areskō his ho wife gynē, ³⁴ and kai he is divided merizō. · kai An ho unmarried agamos woman gynē · ho or kai a ho virgin parthenos is concerned merimnaō about the ho things of the ho Lord kyrios, that hina she may be eimi holy hagios both kai in ho body sōma and kai · ho spirit pneuma. But de a ho married gameō woman is concerned merimnaō about the ho things of the ho world kosmos, how pōs to please areskō her ho husband anēr. ³⁵ I am saying legō this houtos · de for pros · ho your hymeis autos benefit symphoros, not ou to hina put epiballō a restraint brochos on epiballō you hymeis, but alla to promote pros · ho propriety euschēmōn and kai undivided aperispastōs devotion euparedros to the ho Lord kyrios.

³⁶ If ei · de someone tis believes nomizō he is not treating aschēmoneō · ho his autos virgin parthenos in an appropriate manner , if ean his passions are eimi strong hyperakmos, and kai so houtōs it has opheilō to be ginomai, he should do poieō what hos he desires thelō, it is no ou sin hamartanō— let them marry gameō. ³⁷ However de, the man who hos stands histēmi firm hedraios in en · ho his autos resolve kardia is under echō no mē compulsion anankē but de has echō control exousia over peri · ho his idios desire thelēma, and kai has determined krinō this houtos in en · ho his idios heart kardia to keep tēreō her ho as his heautou virgin parthenos, he will do poieō well kalōs. ³⁸ So then hōste · kai the ho one who marries gamizō · ho his heautou virgin parthenos does poieō well kalōs, and kai the ho one who does not mē marry gamizō will do poieō even better kreittōn.

³⁹ A wife gynē is bound deō for epi such hosos a time chronos as her autos husband anēr is alive zaō. · ho But de if ean her ho husband anēr should die koimaō, she is eimi free eleutheros to marry gameō whom hos she wishes thelō, only monon in en the Lord kyrios. ⁴⁰ But de in kata my emos opinion gnōmē she will be eimi happier makarios if ean she remains menō as she is houtōs. · ho And de I believe dokeō that I too kagō have echō the Spirit pneuma of God theos.

8 Now de concerning peri · ho food sacrificed to idols eidōlothutos: we know oida that hoti “ we echō all pas have echō knowledge gnōsis.” · ho Knowledge gnōsis puffs up physioō, · ho but de love agapē builds up oikodomeō. ² If ei someone tis presumes dokeō to know ginōskō something tis, he does not oupō yet know ginōskō as kathōs he ought dei to know ginōskō. ³ But de if ei someone tis loves agapaō · ho God theos, he houtos is known ginōskō by hypo God autos.

⁴ Therefore oun, as peri to the eating of ho food brōsis · ho sacrificed eidōlothutos to idols , we know oida that hoti “an idol eidōlon has no oudeis genuine reality en” and kai that hoti “there is no oudeis God theos but ei mē one heis.” ⁵ For gar even kai if eiper there are eimi so-called legō gods theos, whether eite in en heaven ouranos or eite on epi earth gē ( as hōsper indeed there are eimi many polys “ gods theos” and kai many polys “ lords kyrios”), ⁶ yet alla for us hēmeis there is but one heis God theos, the ho Father patēr, from ek whom hos are · ho all pas things and kai for eis whom autos we hēmeis exist, and kai one heis Lord kyrios, Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos, through dia whom hos are · ho all pas things and kai through dia whom autos we hēmeis exist.

⁷ However alla, not ou everyone pas has en this ho knowledge gnōsis. But de some tis, because in former times heōs they were · ho involved synētheia with · ho idols eidōlon, eat esthiō this food as hōs though it were an idol eidōlothutos sacrifice , and kai thus · ho their autos conscience syneidēsis, being eimi weak asthenēs, is defiled molynō. ⁸ Food brōma · de does not ou bring us hēmeis close paristēmi to ho God theos. We are hystereō no oute worse hystereō if ean we do not mē eat esthiō, and oute no better perisseuō if ean we do esthiō. ⁹ But de take care blepō that pōs this houtos right exousia of yours hymeis does ginomai not mē · ho become ginomai a stumbling proskomma block to the ho weak asthenēs. ¹⁰ For gar if ean someone tis should see you sy who ho have echō knowledge gnōsis, dining katakeimai in en an idol’ s eidōleion temple , will not ouchi the ho conscience syneidēsis of the one autos who is weak asthenēs be eimi emboldened oikodomeō to eis eat esthiō food ho sacrificed to idols eidōlothutos? ¹¹ And so gar the ho one who is weak astheneō, the ho brother adelphos for dia whom hos Christ Christos died apothnēskō, will be destroyed apollymi by en · ho your sos knowledge gnōsis. ¹² So houtōs · de when you sin hamartanō against eis your ho brothers adelphos and kai wound typtō their autos · ho conscience syneidēsis, being weak astheneō, you are sinning hamartanō against eis Christ Christos. ¹³ Therefore dioper, if ei food brōma causes my egō brother adelphos to stumble skandalizō, · ho I will never ou mē eat esthiō meat kreas, lest hina mē I cause · ho my egō brother adelphos to stumble skandalizō.

9 Am I eimi not ou free eleutheros? Am I eimi not ou an apostle apostolos? Have I horaō not ouchi seen horaō Jesus Iēsous · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios? Are eimi you hymeis not ou the result of · ho my egō labor ergon in en the Lord kyrios? ² If ei to others allos I am eimi not ou an apostle apostolos, at least alla I am eimi to you hymeis, for gar you hymeis are eimi the ho proof sphragis of ho my egō apostleship apostolē in en the Lord kyrios.

³ · ho This houtos is eimi my emos defense apologia to those ho who sit in judgment on anakrinō me egō. ⁴ Do we not ou have echō the right exousia to eat esthiō and kai drink pinō? ⁵ Do we not ou have echō the right exousia to the company of periagō a believing adelphē wife gynē, as hōs also kai the ho other loipos apostles apostolos, · kai the ho Lord’ s kyrios brothers adelphos, · ho and kai Cephas Kēphas do? ⁶ Or ē is it only monos I egō and kai Barnabas Barnabas who have echō no ou right exousia to refrain mē from working ergazomai? ⁷ Who tis ever pote serves in the army at his own idios expense opsōnion? Who tis plants phyteuō a vineyard ampelōn and kai does esthiō not ou eat esthiō · ho its autos fruit karpos? Or ē who tis tends poimainō a flock poimnē and kai does esthiō not ou drink esthiō of ek · ho its poimnē milk gala? · ho

⁸ Am I saying laleō these things houtos from kata a merely human anthrōpos point of view? Or ē · kai does legō not ou the ho Law nomos say legō the same houtos? ⁹ For gar in en the ho Law nomos of Moses Mōysēs it is written graphō, “ You shall not ou muzzle kēmoō an ox bous while it is treading out aloaō the grain.” It is not mē for ho oxen bous that God theos is concerned melei, · ho is it? ¹⁰ Or ē does he legō not speak legō entirely pantōs for dia our hēmeis sake. To be sure gar, it was written graphō for dia our hēmeis sake, because hoti the ho one plowing arotriaō should opheilō plow arotriaō in epi hope elpis and kai the ho one threshing aloaō thresh in epi hope elpis of ho sharing metechō in the crop. ¹¹ If ei we hēmeis sowed speirō spiritual things pneumatikos among you hymeis, · ho is it too much megas if ei we hēmeis reap therizō material things sarkikos from you hymeis? · ho ¹² If ei others allos have a share in metechō this right exousia over ho you hymeis, do not ou we hēmeis even more mallon? Nevertheless alla, we have not ou made chraomai use of · ho this houtos right exousia, but alla endure stegō all pas things lest hina mē we place didōmi some tis obstacle enkopē in the way of the ho gospel euangelion of ho Christ Christos. ¹³ Do you not ou know oida that hoti those ho who perform ergazomai · ho sacred rites hieros · ho in the temple eat food esthiō from ek the ho temple hieron, and those ho who serve paredreuō at the ho altar thusiastērion share in symmerizō the ho sacrificial thusiastērion offerings ? ¹⁴ In the same way houtōs, · kai the ho Lord kyrios gave instructions diatassō to those ho who proclaim katangellō the ho gospel euangelion that they should get their living zaō from ek the ho gospel euangelion.

¹⁵ But de I egō have not ou used chraomai any oudeis of these houtos rights. And de I am not ou writing graphō this houtos so that hina something will be done ginomai for en me egō; for gar it would be better kalos for me egō rather mallon to die apothnēskō— no one oudeis shall take away kenoō · ho my egō ground for boasting kauchēma! ¹⁶ If ean I preach euangelizō the gospel , I egō do not ou have eimi a ground kauchēma for boasting , for gar I egō am compelled anankē to do so epikeimai. Woe ouai is eimi me egō if ean I do not mē preach euangelizō the gospel ! ¹⁷ For gar if ei I do prassō this houtos willingly hekōn, I have echō a reward misthos. But de if ei unwillingly akōn, I have been entrusted with pisteuō a charge oikonomia. ¹⁸ What tis then oun is eimi my egō · ho reward misthos? That hina when I preach euangelizō I may present tithēmi the ho gospel euangelion free of charge adapanos, and so eis not mē make full use katachraomai of · ho my egō right exousia in en the ho gospel euangelion.

¹⁹ For gar though I am eimi free eleutheros from ek all pas, I have made douloō myself emautou a servant douloō to all pas, so that hina I might win kerdainō · ho as many as possible polys. ²⁰ · kai To the ho Jews Ioudaios I became ginomai as hōs a Jew Ioudaios that hina I might win kerdainō Jews Ioudaios. To those ho under hypo the law nomos I became as hōs one under hypo the law nomos ( though I eimi myself autos am eimi not mē under hypo the law nomos) that hina I might win kerdainō those ho under hypo the law nomos. ²¹ To those ho outside anomos the law I became as hōs one outside the law anomos ( though I am eimi not mē free from the law anomos of God theos but alla subject to the law ennomos of Christ Christos) that hina I might win kerdainō those ho outside the law anomos. ²² To the ho weak asthenēs I became ginomai weak asthenēs that hina I might win kerdainō the ho weak asthenēs. I have become ginomai all things pas to ho all pas people , that hina by all means pantōs I might save sōzō some tis. ²³ I do poieō all pas things · de for the sake dia of the ho gospel euangelion, that hina I may ginomai share with them in its autos benefits synkoinōnos.

²⁴ Do you not ou know oida that hoti all pas who ho run trechō in en the stadium stadion compete trechō but de only one heis receives lambanō the ho prize brabeion? So houtōs run trechō that hina you may win katalambanō. ²⁵ Everyone pas · de who ho competes agōnizomai exercises self-control in enkrateuomai all pas things . They ekeinos do it to hina receive lambanō a perishable phthartos wreath stephanos, but de we hēmeis for an imperishable aphthartos one. ²⁶ So I egō do not ou run trechō aimlessly adēlōs; I do not ou box pykteuō like hōs one flailing derō the air aēr. ²⁷ But alla I discipline hypōpiazō my egō · ho body sōma and kai bring it into subjection doulagōgeō, so that pōs having preached kēryssō to others allos I ginomai myself autos should ginomai not mē be ginomai disqualified adokimos.

10 For gar I do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be unaware agnoeō, brothers adelphos, that hoti · ho our hēmeis fathers patēr were eimi all pas under hypo the ho cloud nephelē and kai all pas passed dierchomai through dia the ho sea thalassa, ² and kai all pas were baptized baptizō into eis · ho Moses Mōysēs in en the ho cloud nephelē and kai in en the ho sea thalassa, ³ and kai all pas ate esthiō the ho same autos spiritual pneumatikos food brōma, ⁴ and kai all pas drank pinō the ho same autos spiritual pneumatikos drink poma; for gar they used to drink pinō from ek the spiritual pneumatikos rock petra that followed akoloutheō them, and de that ho rock petra was eimi · ho Christ Christos. ⁵ But alla with en most polys of them autos God theos was not ou · ho pleased eudokeō, · ho for gar their corpses were scattered katastrōnnymi over en the ho desert erēmos.

⁶ Now de these houtos things took place ginomai as examples typos for us hēmeis, so eis that we hēmeis would eimi not mē crave epithumētēs evil kakos things , even as kathōs they kakeinos did epithumeō. ⁷ So do ginomai not mēde become ginomai idolaters eidōlolatrēs, as kathōs some tis of them autos were. As hōsper it is written graphō, “ The ho people laos sat kathizō down to eat esthiō and kai drink pinō and kai rose up anistēmi to play paizō.” ⁸ We must not mēde indulge in sexual immorality porneuō, as kathōs some tis of them autos did porneuō, and kai twenty-three eikosi thousand chilias fell piptō in a single heis day hēmera. ⁹ And let us not mēde put Christ Christos to the test ekpeirazō, · ho as kathōs some tis of them autos did peirazō, and kai were destroyed apollymi by hypo · ho serpents ophis. ¹⁰ And do not mēde grumble gongyzō, as kathaper some tis of them autos did gongyzō, and kai were killed apollymi by hypo the ho destroyer olothreutēs. ¹¹ Now de these houtos events happened symbainō to them ekeinos as examples typikōs, but de were written graphō down as warnings nouthesia for pros us hēmeis, on eis whom hos the ho end telos of the ho ages aiōn has come katantaō. ¹² So hōste let the ho one who thinks dokeō he stands histēmi watch blepō out lest mē he fall piptō. ¹³ No ou trial peirasmos has overtaken lambanō you hymeis that is not ei distinctively human anthrōpinos; and de God theos is faithful pistos; · ho he hos will not ou let eaō you hymeis be tested peirazō beyond hyper what hos you can dynamai bear , but alla with syn the ho trial peirasmos will also kai provide poieō the ho way through ekbasis, so that ho you will be able dynamai to endure hypopherō it.

¹⁴ Therefore dioper, my egō dear friends agapētos, flee pheugō from apo the ho worship of idols eidōlolatria. ¹⁵ I speak legō as hōs to sensible people phronimos; judge krinō for yourselves hymeis what hos I am about to say phēmi. ¹⁶ The ho cup potērion of ho blessing eulogia that hos we bless eulogeō, is it eimi not ouchi a sharing koinōnia in the ho blood haima of ho Christ Christos? The ho bread artos that hos we break klaō, is it eimi not ouchi a sharing koinōnia in the ho body sōma of ho Christ Christos? ¹⁷ Because hoti there is one heis loaf artos, we eimi who ho are many polys are eimi one heis body sōma, · ho for gar we metechō all pas partake metechō of ek the ho one heis loaf artos. ¹⁸ Consider blepō · ho Israel Israēl according kata to the flesh sarx: are eimi not ou those ho who eat esthiō the ho sacrifices thusia sharers koinōnos in the ho altar thusiastērion? ¹⁹ So oun what tis am I implying phēmi? That hoti food offered to idols eidōlothutos is eimi anything tis, or ē that hoti an idol eidōlon is eimi anything tis? ²⁰ No alla, what I am implying is that hoti the things that hos people sacrifice thuō, they sacrifice thuō to demons daimonion and kai not ou to God theos; and de I do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be ginomai sharers koinōnos with ho demons daimonion. ²¹ You cannot ou drink pinō the cup potērion of the Lord kyrios and kai the cup potērion of demons daimonion; you cannot ou partake metechō of the table trapeza of the Lord kyrios and kai the table trapeza of demons daimonion. ²² Or ē are we trying to provoke parazēloō the ho Lord kyrios to jealousy ? Are we eimi stronger ischuros than he autos?

²³ “ All pas things are permissible,” but alla not ou all pas things are helpful sympherō. “ All pas things are permissible,” but alla not ou all pas things build up oikodomeō. ²⁴ Let zēteō no one mēdeis seek zēteō · ho his heautou own advantage, but alla that ho of the ho other heteros. ²⁵ Eat esthiō whatever pas · ho is sold pōleō in en the marketplace makellon, asking no mēdeis question anakrinō based dia on · ho conscience syneidēsis, ²⁶ for gar the ho earth gē and kai its autos fullness plērōma belong to the ho Lord kyrios. · ho

³¹ So oun, whether eite you eat esthiō or eite drink pinō, or eite whatever tis you do poieō, do poieō everything pas for eis the glory doxa of God theos. ³² Do ginomai not be ginomai a stumbling block aproskopos to either kai Jews Ioudaios or kai Greeks Hellēn, or kai to the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos; ³³ even as kathōs I kagō try to please areskō everyone pas in everything pas I do, not mē seeking zēteō · ho my emautou own advantage symphoros but alla that ho of the ho many polys, so that hina they may be saved sōzō.

¹⁷ But de in giving parangellō the following houtos instructions parangellō I do not ou commend epaineō you, because hoti when you come together synerchomai it is not ou for eis the ho better kreittōn but alla for eis the ho worse hēssōn. ¹⁸ For gar in the first prōton place , I hear akouō that when you hymeis gather synerchomai as en a church ekklēsia there are hyparchō divisions schisma among en you hymeis, and kai in part meros I believe pisteuō it tis, ¹⁹ for gar there must dei be eimi · kai factions hairesis among en you hymeis so that hina · kai it may become ginomai clear phaneros who ho among en you hymeis are genuine dokimos. ²⁰ Therefore oun when you hymeis gather synerchomai in epi the ho assembly autos, it is eimi not ou to eat esthiō a supper deipnon in honor of the Lord kyriakos. ²¹ For gar when en it comes time to eat esthiō, each hekastos one goes ahead with prolambanō · ho his idios own supper deipnon; and kai one hos remains hungry peinaō while de another hos becomes drunk methyō. ²² Can it be that you do echō not ou have echō houses oikia in eis which ho to eat esthiō and kai drink pinō? Or ē are you trying to show contempt for kataphroneō the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos by kai humiliating kataischunō those ho who have echō nothing mē? What tis should I say legō to you hymeis? Should I commend epaineō you hymeis? For en this houtos I will not ou commend epaineō you.

²³ For gar I egō received paralambanō from apo the ho Lord kyrios that which hos I also kai passed paradidōmi on to you hymeis: that hoti the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous on en the ho night nyx when hos he was betrayed paradidōmi took lambanō bread artos, ²⁴ and kai after giving thanks eucharisteō, he broke klaō it, and kai said legō, “ This houtos is eimi my egō · ho body sōma which ho is for hyper you hymeis. Do poieō this houtos in eis · ho remembrance of anamnēsis me emos.” ²⁵ In the same way hōsautōs, he took the ho cup potērion also kai, after meta · ho supper deipneō, saying legō, “ This houtos · ho cup potērion is eimi the ho new kainos covenant diathēkē in en · ho my emos blood haima. Do poieō this houtos, as often as hosakis you drink pinō it, in eis · ho remembrance of anamnēsis me emos.” ²⁶ For gar as often as hosakis you eat esthiō · ho this houtos bread artos and kai drink pinō this ho cup potērion, you proclaim katangellō the ho Lord’ s kyrios death thanatos · ho until achri hos he comes erchomai.

²⁷ Whoever hos, therefore hōste, eats esthiō this ho bread artos or ē drinks pinō this ho cup potērion of the ho Lord kyrios in an unworthy manner anaxiōs will be eimi guilty enochos of the ho body sōma and kai · ho blood haima of the ho Lord kyrios. ²⁸ A person anthrōpos should examine dokimazō · de himself heautou, then kai, and so houtōs eat esthiō of ek the ho bread artos and kai drink pinō of ek the ho cup potērion. ²⁹ For gar the ho one who eats esthiō and kai drinks pinō without mē discerning diakrinō the ho body sōma eats esthiō and kai drinks pinō judgment krima on himself heautou. ³⁰ That is why dia many polys of en you hymeis are weak asthenēs and kai sick arrōstos, and kai quite a few hikanos are dead koimaō. ³¹ But de if ei we had been examining diakrinō ourselves heautou, we would an not ou come under judgment krinō. ³² But de when we are judged krinō by hypo the ho Lord kyrios, we are being corrected by discipline paideuō, so that hina we will katakrinō not mē be condemned katakrinō along with syn the ho world kosmos.

³³ So then hōste, my egō brothers adelphos, when you come together synerchomai to eis eat esthiō, wait for ekdechomai one another allēlōn. ³⁴ If ei anyone tis is hungry peinaō, he should eat esthiō at en home oikos, so that hina when you come together synerchomai it does not mē lead to eis judgment krima. I will give directions diatassō about · ho · de other loipos matters when hōs I come erchomai.

12 Now de concerning peri · ho spiritual gifts pneumatikos, brothers adelphos, I do not ou want thelō you hymeis to be uninformed agnoeō. ² You know oida that hoti when hote you were eimi pagans ethnos you were agō somehow hōs seduced agō and led astray apagō to pros · ho idols eidōlon that ho could not speak aphōnos. ³ Therefore dio I want you hymeis to understand gnōrizō that hoti no one oudeis speaking laleō by en the Spirit pneuma of God theos says legō, “ Jesus Iēsous is accursed anathema!” and kai no one oudeis can dynamai say legō, “ Jesus Iēsous is Lord kyrios,” except ei mē by en the Holy hagios Spirit pneuma.

⁴ Now de there are eimi different diairesis kinds of gifts charisma, but de the ho same autos Spirit pneuma; ⁵ and kai there are eimi different kinds diairesis of ministries diakonia, but kai the ho same autos Lord kyrios; ⁶ and kai there are eimi different diairesis accomplishments energēma, but de it is the ho same autos God theos who ho produces energeō · ho all pas of them in en everyone pas. ⁷ But de the ho manifestation phanerōsis of the ho Spirit pneuma is given didōmi to each hekastos one for pros the ho good of all sympherō. ⁸ For gar to one hos is given didōmi through dia the ho Spirit pneuma a message logos of wisdom sophia, to another allos · de a message logos of knowledge gnōsis according kata to the ho same autos Spirit pneuma, ⁹ to another heteros faith pistis by en the ho same autos Spirit pneuma, to another allos · de gifts charisma of healing iama by en the ho one heis Spirit pneuma, ¹⁰ to another allos · de performance energēma of miracles dynamis, to another allos · de prophecy prophēteia, to another allos · de discerning diakrisis of spirits pneuma, to another heteros various kinds genos of tongues glōssa, and de to another allos interpretation hermēneia of tongues glōssa. ¹¹ But de it is the ho one heis and kai · ho same autos Spirit pneuma, distributing diaireō to each idios as kathōs he determines boulomai, who produces energeō all pas these things houtos.

¹² For gar just as kathaper the ho physical body sōma is eimi one heis yet kai has echō many polys members melos, and de all pas the ho members melos of the ho body sōma, though eimi many polys, are eimi one heis body sōma, so houtōs also kai is the ho body of Christ Christos. ¹³ · kai For gar in en one heis Spirit pneuma we hēmeis were baptizō all pas baptized baptizō into eis one heis body sōma, whether eite Jews Ioudaios or eite Greeks Hellēn, slaves or eite free eleutheros, and kai we were potizō all pas imbued with potizō one heis Spirit pneuma.

¹⁴ For gar indeed kai the ho body sōma is eimi not ou a single heis member melos, but alla many polys. ¹⁵ If ean the ho foot pous should say legō, “ Since hoti I am eimi not ou a hand cheir, I am eimi not ou part of ek the ho body sōma,” it would not ou for para that houtos reason cease ou to be eimi part of ek the ho body sōma. ¹⁶ And kai if ean the ho ear ous should say legō, “ Since hoti I am eimi not ou an eye ophthalmos, I am eimi not ou part of ek the ho body sōma,” it would not ou for para that houtos reason cease ou to be eimi part of ek the ho body sōma. ¹⁷ If ei the ho whole holos body sōma were an eye ophthalmos, where pou would the ho sense of hearing akoē be? If ei the whole holos body were an ear akoē, where pou would the ho sense of smell osphrēsis be? ¹⁸ But de as it is nyni, · ho God theos arranged tithēmi the ho members melos in en the ho body sōma, every hekastos one heis of them autos, just as kathōs he chose thelō. ¹⁹ If ei · de they were eimi · ho all pas a single heis member melos, where pou would the ho body sōma be? ²⁰ But de as it is nyn, there are many polys members melos, but de one heis body sōma. ²¹ The ho eye ophthalmos cannot ou dynamai · de say legō to the ho hand cheir, “ I have echō no ou need chreia of you sy”; nor ē again palin the ho head kephalē to the ho feet pous, “ I have echō no ou need chreia of you hymeis.” ²² Quite polys the contrary alla, those ho members melos of the ho body sōma that seem dokeō to be hyparchō weaker asthenēs are eimi indispensable anankaios, ²³ and kai those members houtos of the ho body sōma that hos we consider dokeō less honorable atimos we clothe with peritithēmi greater perissoteros honor timē, and kai · ho our hēmeis unpresentable aschēmōn members are treated with echō greater perissoteros modesty euschēmosynē, ²⁴ · ho whereas de our hēmeis presentable members euschēmōn have echō no ou such need chreia. Instead alla, · ho God theos has so arranged synkerannymi the ho body sōma, giving didōmi greater perissoteros honor timē to the ho member that lacked hystereō it, ²⁵ so that hina there would be eimi no mē division schisma in en the ho body sōma, but alla that the ho members melos would have merimnaō the ho same autos care merimnaō for hyper one allēlōn another . ²⁶ And kai if eite one heis member melos suffers paschō, every pas member melos suffers sympaschō with it; · ho if eite one heis member melos is honored doxazō, every pas member melos rejoices synchairō with it. · ho

²⁷ Now de you hymeis are eimi Christ’ s Christos body sōma and kai each of you is a member melos of ek it meros. ²⁸ And kai God theos has appointed tithēmi · ho in en the ho church ekklēsia first prōton apostles apostolos, second deuteros prophets prophētēs, third triton teachers didaskalos, then epeita miracles dynamis, then epeita gifts charisma of healing iama, those able to help antilēmpsis others , those who can provide guidance kybernēsis, and various kinds genos of tongues glōssa. ²⁹ Not mē all pas are apostles apostolos, are they? Not mē all pas are prophets prophētēs, are they? Not mē all pas are teachers didaskalos, are they? Not mē all pas work miracles dynamis, do they? ³⁰ Not mē all pas have echō gifts charisma of healing iama, do they? Not mē all pas speak laleō in tongues glōssa, do they? Not mē all pas are able to interpret diermēneuō, are they? ³¹ Set your hearts zēloō then de on the ho higher megas gifts charisma. · ho And kai now eti I will show deiknymi you hymeis a way hodos that is beyond kata comparison hyperbolē.

13 If ean I speak laleō in the ho tongues glōssa of ho men anthrōpos and kai of ho angels angelos, but de do echō not mē have echō love agapē, I am ginomai a resounding ēcheō gong chalkos or ē a clanging alalazō cymbal kymbalon. ² And kai if ean I have echō the gift of prophecy prophēteia, and kai understand oida · ho all pas mysteries mystērion and kai all pas · ho knowledge gnōsis, and kai if ean I have echō all pas · ho faith pistis so that hōste I can remove methistēmi mountains oros, but de do echō not mē have echō love agapē, I am eimi nothing outheis. ³ If I kan give away psōmizō everything pas · ho I egō own hyparchō, and kai if ean I surrender paradidōmi · ho my egō body sōma to hina be burned kauchaomai, but de do echō not mē have echō love agapē, it benefits me ōpheleō nothing oudeis.

⁴ · ho Love agapē is patient makrothumeō, love agapē is kind chrēsteuomai, · ho it does not ou envy zēloō. · ho Love agapē does not ou brag perpereuomai, it is not ou arrogant physioō, ⁵ it is not ou rude aschēmoneō, it is not ou self-seeking zēteō, · ho it is not ou easily angered paroxynō, it keeps no ou account logizomai of ho wrongs kakos, ⁶ it takes no ou pleasure chairō in epi · ho wrongdoing adikia, but de rejoices synchairō in the ho truth alētheia. ⁷ Love bears stegō all pas things , believes pisteuō all pas things , hopes elpizō all pas things , endures hypomenō all pas things .

⁸ · ho Love agapē never oudepote comes to an end piptō. But de if eite there are prophecies prophēteia, they will be set aside katargeō; if eite there are tongues glōssa, they will cease pauō; if eite there is knowledge gnōsis, it will be set aside katargeō. ⁹ For gar we know ginōskō in ek part meros and kai we prophesy prophēteuō in ek part meros, ¹⁰ but de when hotan what ho is complete teleios comes erchomai, the ho partial ek meros will be set aside katargeō. ¹¹ When hote I was eimi a child nēpios, I talked laleō like hōs a child nēpios, I thought phroneō like hōs a child nēpios, I reasoned logizomai like hōs a child nēpios. When hote I became ginomai a man anēr, I set aside katargeō childish nēpios ways ho. · ho ¹² For gar the present arti we are looking blepō through dia a mirror esoptron obscurely en ainigma, but de then tote face prosōpon to pros face prosōpon. Now arti I know ginōskō in ek part meros; then tote · de I will know fully epiginōskō, just as kathōs · kai I have been fully known epiginōskō. ¹³ And de now nyni remain menō faith pistis, hope elpis, and love agapē; · ho these houtos three treis. And de the greatest megas of these houtos is · ho love agapē.

14 Pursue diōkō · ho love agapē, and de earnestly desire zēloō the ho spiritual pneumatikos gifts , but de especially mallon that hina you may prophesy prophēteuō. ² For gar the ho one speaking laleō in a tongue glōssa speaks laleō not ou to men anthrōpos but alla to God theos; indeed gar, no one oudeis understands akouō him, yet de he is speaking laleō mysteries mystērion by the Spirit pneuma. ³ On the other hand de, the ho one who prophesies prophēteuō speaks laleō to people anthrōpos for their edification oikodomē, · kai encouragement paraklēsis, and kai consolation paramythia. ⁴ The ho one who speaks laleō in a tongue glōssa edifies oikodomeō himself heautou, but de the ho one who prophesies prophēteuō edifies oikodomeō the church ekklēsia. ⁵ Now de I would like thelō all pas of you hymeis to speak laleō in tongues glōssa, but de even more mallon to hina prophesy prophēteuō. The ho one who prophesies prophēteuō is greater megas · de than ē the ho one who speaks laleō in tongues glōssa, unless ektos ei he interprets diermēneuō so that hina the ho church ekklēsia may receive lambanō edification oikodomē.

⁶ But de as it is nyn, brothers adelphos, if ean I come erchomai to pros you hymeis speaking laleō in tongues glōssa, how tis will I benefit ōpheleō you hymeis unless ean mē I impart laleō to you hymeis some ē revelation apokalypsis or ē knowledge gnōsis or ē prophecy prophēteia or ē teaching didachē? ⁷ It is the same homōs with · ho lifeless apsychos things that produce didōmi sound phōnē, whether eite flute aulos or eite harp kithara; if ean they do didōmi not mē make didōmi a difference diastolē between ho notes phthongos, how pōs will what ho is being played on the flute auleō or ē the ho harp kitharizō be understood ginōskō? ⁸ Again kai, if ean the bugle salpinx gives didōmi an uncertain adēlos call phōnē, who tis will get ready paraskeuazō for eis battle polemos? ⁹ So houtōs · kai it is with you hymeis; if ean you do didōmi not mē speak didōmi a clear eusēmos message logos with dia your ho tongue glōssa, how pōs will anyone know ginōskō what ho is being said laleō? You will be eimi speaking laleō into eis the air aēr. ¹⁰ There are eimi who-knows-how-many tosoutos ei kinds genos of languages phōnē in en the world kosmos, and kai none oudeis is without meaning aphōnos. ¹¹ But oun if ean I do not mē grasp oida the ho meaning dynamis of the ho language phōnē, I will be eimi a foreigner barbaros to the ho speaker laleō and kai the ho speaker laleō a foreigner barbaros to en me egō. ¹² So houtōs · kai it is with you hymeis. Since epei you are eimi eager zēlōtēs for manifestations of the Spirit pneuma, seek zēteō to hina excel perisseuō for pros the ho edification oikodomē of the ho church ekklēsia.

¹³ For this reason dio, the ho one who speaks laleō in a tongue glōssa should pray proseuchomai that hina he will be able to interpret diermēneuō. ¹⁴ For gar if ean I pray proseuchomai in a tongue glōssa, · ho my egō spirit pneuma prays proseuchomai · ho but de my egō mind nous is eimi unproductive akarpos. ¹⁵ What tis then oun shall I do eimi? I will pray proseuchomai with my ho spirit pneuma, but de I will also kai pray proseuchomai with my ho understanding nous. I will sing praises psallō with my ho spirit pneuma, but de I will also kai sing praises psallō with my ho understanding nous. ¹⁶ Otherwise epei, if ean you are praising eulogeō God by en the Spirit pneuma, how pōs can anyone ho in anaplēroō the ho position topos of ho an outsider idiōtēs say legō, · ho “ Amen amēn,” to epi · ho your sos thanksgiving eucharistia since epeidē he does oida not ou know oida what tis you are saying legō? ¹⁷ For gar you sy are giving thanks eucharisteō well kalōs enough , but alla the ho other heteros person is not ou being edified oikodomeō. ¹⁸ I thank eucharisteō · ho God theos I speak laleō in tongues glōssa more mallon than all pas of you hymeis; ¹⁹ however alla, in en church ekklēsia I would thelō rather speak laleō five pente words logos with ho my egō understanding nous, so as to hina instruct katēcheō others allos also kai, than ē ten thousand myrios words logos in en a tongue glōssa.

²⁰ Brothers adelphos, do ginomai not mē be ginomai children paidion in your ho thinking phrēn. Rather alla, in ho evil kakia be infants nēpiazō but de in your ho thinking phrēn be ginomai adults teleios. ²¹ In en the ho Law nomos it is written graphō, “ By en people with strange tongues heteroglōssos and kai by en the lips cheilos of foreigners heteros will I speak laleō to ho this houtos people laos, yet kai not even oude in this way houtōs will they listen eisakouō to me egō, says legō the Lord kyrios.” ²² So then hōste · ho tongues glōssa are eimi for eis a sign sēmeion, not ou for ho believers pisteuō but alla for ho unbelievers apistos, · ho while de prophecy prophēteia is not ou for ho unbelievers apistos but alla for ho believers pisteuō. ²³ So oun if ean the ho whole holos church ekklēsia assembles synerchomai in epi the ho same autos place and kai everyone pas is speaking laleō in tongues glōssa, and de outsiders idiōtēs or ē unbelievers apistos come in eiserchomai, will they not ou say legō that hoti you are out of your minds mainomai? ²⁴ But de if ean all pas are prophesying prophēteuō, and de an tis unbeliever apistos or ē outsider idiōtēs comes eiserchomai in , he is convicted elenchō by hypo all pas, he is called to account anakrinō by hypo all pas, ²⁵ and the ho secrets kryptos of ho his autos heart kardia are ginomai laid bare phaneros. · kai Thus houtōs he will fall piptō on epi his face prosōpon and worship proskyneō · ho God theos, declaring apangellō, “ God theos is eimi really ontōs · ho among en you hymeis.” ²⁶ What tis then oun is eimi the outcome , brothers adelphos? When hotan you come together synerchomai, each hekastos one has echō a hymn psalmos, a word of instruction didachē, a revelation apokalypsis, a tongue glōssa, an interpretation hermēneia. Let ginomai all pas things be done ginomai for pros edification oikodomē. ²⁷ If eite any tis speak laleō in a tongue glōssa, it should be only kata two dyo, or ē at the ho most polys three treis, and kai each ana in turn meros; and kai someone heis must interpret diermēneuō. ²⁸ But de if ean there is eimi no mē one who can interpret diermēneutēs, the speaker should remain silent sigaō in en church ekklēsia and de speak laleō to himself heautou and kai to ho God theos. ²⁹ · de Two dyo or ē three treis should speak laleō as prophets prophētēs and kai · ho others allos should weigh carefully diakrinō what is said. ³⁰ But de if ean a revelation comes apokalyptō to another allos person who is sitting down kathēmai, the ho first prōtos speaker should stop sigaō. ³¹ For gar in this way all pas will be able dynamai to prophesy prophēteuō one by one kata, with the result that hina all pas may learn manthanō and kai all pas be encouraged parakaleō, ³² Indeed kai, the spirits pneuma of prophets prophētēs are subject hypotassō to prophets prophētēs, ³³ for gar God theos is eimi not ou a God of confusion akatastasia · ho but alla of peace eirēnē. As hōs in en all pas the ho churches ekklēsia of the ho saints hagios, ³⁴ the ho women gynē are to be silent sigaō in en the ho churches ekklēsia, for gar they autos are not ou permitted epitrepō to speak laleō. Rather alla, they are to be submissive hypotassō, as kathōs in fact kai the ho law nomos says legō. ³⁵ And de if ei they want thelō to find out about manthanō something tis, they should ask eperōtaō their own idios husbands anēr at en home oikos; · ho for gar it is eimi improper aischros for a woman gynē to speak laleō in en church ekklēsia. ³⁶ Or ē did exerchomai the ho word logos of ho God theos originate exerchomai with apo you hymeis? Or ē did it come katantaō to eis you hymeis alone monos?

³⁷ If ei anyone tis considers dokeō himself to be eimi a prophet prophētēs or ē spiritual pneumatikos, let him acknowledge epiginōskō that hoti what hos I am writing graphō to you hymeis is eimi a command entolē of the Lord kyrios. ³⁸ If ei · de anyone tis fails to acknowledge agnoeō this, he will not be acknowledged agnoeō. ³⁹ So hōste, my egō brothers adelphos, be eager zēloō to prophesy prophēteuō, and kai do kōlyō not mē forbid kōlyō speaking laleō in tongues glōssa. ⁴⁰ But de everything pas should be done ginomai in a proper euschēmonōs and kai orderly way kata.

15 Now de I make known gnōrizō to you hymeis, brothers adelphos, the ho gospel euangelion that hos I preached euangelizō to you hymeis, which hos also kai you received paralambanō, in en which hos also kai you stand histēmi, ² through dia which hos also kai you are being saved sōzō, if ei you hold firmly katechō to the tis message logos I preached euangelizō to you hymeis— unless ektos ei you have believed pisteuō in vain eikē.

³ For gar I passed on paradidōmi to you hymeis as en of first prōtos importance what hos I also kai received paralambanō: that hoti Christ Christos died apothnēskō for hyper · ho our hēmeis sins hamartia according kata to the ho Scriptures graphē, ⁴ and kai that hoti he was buried thaptō, and kai that hoti he has been raised egeirō on the ho third tritos day hēmera · ho according kata to the ho Scriptures graphē, ⁵ and kai that hoti he appeared horaō to Cephas Kēphas, then eita to the ho twelve dōdeka. ⁶ Then epeita he appeared horaō to more than epanō five hundred pentakosioi brothers adelphos at the same time ephapax, most polys of ek whom hos · ho are still heōs living menō, although de some tis have fallen asleep koimaō. ⁷ Then epeita he appeared horaō to James Iakōbos, then eita to all pas the ho apostles apostolos. ⁸ Last eschatos · de of all pas, as hōsperei to one ho abnormally born ektrōma, he appeared horaō even to me kagō. ⁹ For gar I egō am eimi the ho least elachistos of the ho apostles apostolos, and I hos am eimi not ou worthy hikanos to be called kaleō an apostle apostolos, because dioti I persecuted diōkō the ho church ekklēsia of ho God theos. ¹⁰ But de by the grace charis of God theos I am eimi what hos I am eimi, and kai · ho his autos grace charis · ho toward eis me egō was ginomai not ou in vain kenos. No alla, I worked kopiaō harder perissoteros than any pas of them autos— yet de not ou I egō, but alla the ho grace charis of ho God theos that ho is with syn me egō. ¹¹ Whether eite then oun it was I egō or eite they ekeinos, so houtōs we preach kēryssō and kai so houtōs you came to believe pisteuō.

¹² Now de if ei Christ Christos is proclaimed kēryssō as hoti raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros, how pōs can some tis of en you hymeis say legō that hoti there is eimi no ou resurrection anastasis of the dead nekros? ¹³ But de if ei there is eimi no ou resurrection anastasis of the dead nekros, not even oude Christ Christos has been raised egeirō. ¹⁴ And de if ei Christ Christos has not ou been raised egeirō, then ara our hēmeis proclamation kērygma is groundless kenos, · kai · ho and kai your hymeis faith pistis is to no purpose kenos. · ho ¹⁵ Beyond that de, we are even kai found heuriskō to be false witnesses pseudomartys about ho God theos, because hoti we have borne witness martyreō about kata · ho God theos that hoti he raised egeirō · ho Christ Christos, whom hos he did not ou raise egeirō if eiper it is true that the dead nekros are not ou raised egeirō. ¹⁶ For gar if ei the dead nekros are not ou raised egeirō, not even oude Christ Christos has been raised egeirō. ¹⁷ And de if ei Christ Christos has not ou been raised egeirō, your hymeis faith pistis is useless mataios; · ho you are eimi still eti in en · ho your hymeis sins hamartia. ¹⁸ Then ara those ho also kai who have fallen asleep koimaō in en Christ Christos have perished apollymi. ¹⁹ If ei our eimi hope elpizō in en Christ Christos is eimi for en · ho this houtos life zōē only monon, we are eimi of all pas men anthrōpos most to be pitied eleeinos.

²⁰ But de in fact nyni Christ Christos has been raised egeirō from ek the dead nekros, the firstfruits aparchē of those ho who have fallen asleep koimaō. ²¹ For gar since epeidē death thanatos came through dia a man anthrōpos, the resurrection anastasis of the dead nekros also kai comes through dia a man anthrōpos. ²² For gar just as hōsper in en · ho Adam Adam all pas die apothnēskō, so houtōs also kai in en · ho Christ Christos all pas will be made alive zōiopoieō. ²³ But de each hekastos in en · ho his own idios order tagma: Christ Christos, the firstfruits aparchē; then epeita, those ho who belong ho to Christ Christos, when en · ho he autos comes parousia. ²⁴ Then eita comes the ho end telos, when hotan he hands paradidōmi over the ho kingdom basileia to ho God theos · kai the Father patēr, when hotan he has destroyed katargeō every pas dominion archē, · kai every pas authority exousia and kai power dynamis. ²⁵ For gar he autos must dei reign basileuō until achri hos he has put tithēmi all pas his ho enemies echthros under hypo · ho his autos feet pous. ²⁶ The last eschatos enemy echthros to be destroyed katargeō is · ho death thanatos. ²⁷ For gar “ he has put everything pas in subjection hypotassō under hypo · ho his autos feet pous.” Now de when hotan it says legō that hoti “ everything pas has been put in subjection hypotassō,” it is clear dēlos that hoti this does not include ektos the ho one who put everything pas in subjection hypotassō to him autos. · ho ²⁸ And de when hotan everything pas is subjected hypotassō to him autos, · ho then tote the ho Son hyios himself autos will also kai be subjected hypotassō to the ho one who subjected hypotassō everything pas to him autos, · ho so that hina God theos may be eimi · ho · ho all pas in en all pas.

²⁹ Otherwise epei, what tis will they accomplish poieō, those ho who are being baptized baptizō for hyper the ho dead nekros? If ei the dead nekros are not ou actually holōs raised egeirō, why tis then kai are they being baptized baptizō for hyper them autos?

³⁰ And kai why tis are we hēmeis putting ourselves in danger kindyneuō every pas hour hōra? ³¹ Every kata day hēmera I am in danger of dying apothnēskō! I swear by nē my ho boasting kauchēsis in you hymeteros, which hos I have echō in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios. ³² If ei as kata a mere man anthrōpos I fought with wild beasts thēriomacheō at en Ephesus Ephesos, what tis have I egō · ho gained ophelos? If ei the dead nekros are not ou raised egeirō, let us eat esthiō and kai drink pinō, for gar tomorrow aurion we die apothnēskō. ³³ Do not mē be deceived planaō: “ Bad kakos company homilia corrupts phtheirō good chrēstos morals ēthos.” ³⁴ Sober up eknēphō as you ought dikaiōs, and kai stop mē sinning hamartanō; for gar some tis have echō no knowledge agnōsia of God theos. I say laleō this to pros your hymeis shame entropē.

³⁵ But alla someone tis will ask legō, “ How pōs are the ho dead nekros raised egeirō? And de with what kind poios of body sōma will they come erchomai?” ³⁶ You sy fool aphrōn! What hos you sow speirō does not ou come to life zōiopoieō unless ean mē it dies apothnēskō. ³⁷ And kai what hos you sow speirō is not ou the ho body sōma that ho is to be ginomai, but alla a bare gymnos seed kokkos, perhaps ei tynchanō of wheat sitos or ē something tis · ho else loipos. ³⁸ · ho But de God theos gives didōmi it autos a body sōma as kathōs he has determined thelō, and kai to each hekastos kind of ho seed sperma its own idios body sōma. ³⁹ Not ou all pas flesh sarx is the ho same autos; people anthrōpos have one kind allos, animals ktēnos another allos, · de birds ptēnos another allos, · de fish ichthus another allos. · de ⁴⁰ And kai there are heavenly epouranios bodies sōma and kai earthly epigeios bodies sōma; but alla the ho glory doxa of ho heavenly epouranios bodies is of one heteros kind and de the ho glory of ho earthly epigeios bodies is of another heteros. ⁴¹ The sun hēlios has one allos kind of glory doxa, · kai the moon selēnē another allos kind of glory doxa, · kai the stars astēr another allos kind of glory doxa; and gar star astēr differs from diapherō star astēr in en glory doxa.

⁴² So houtōs also kai is the ho resurrection anastasis of the ho dead nekros. The body is sown speirō in en a perishable phthora state , it is raised egeirō imperishable aphtharsia. ⁴³ It is sown speirō in en humiliation atimia, it is raised egeirō in en glory doxa; it is sown speirō in en weakness astheneia, it is raised egeirō in en power dynamis; ⁴⁴ it is sown speirō a natural psychikos body sōma, it is raised egeirō a spiritual pneumatikos body sōma. If ei there is eimi a natural psychikos body sōma, there is eimi also kai a spiritual pneumatikos body. ⁴⁵ So houtōs also kai it is written graphō, “ The ho first prōtos man anthrōpos, Adam Adam, became ginomai a living zaō soul psychē.” The ho last eschatos Adam Adam became a life-giving zōiopoieō spirit pneuma. ⁴⁶ However alla, the ho spiritual pneumatikos did not ou come first prōton, but alla the ho natural psychikos, then epeita the ho spiritual pneumatikos. ⁴⁷ The ho first prōtos man anthrōpos was of ek the earth gē, made of dust choikos; the ho second deuteros man anthrōpos is of ek heaven ouranos. ⁴⁸ As was hoios the ho man of dust choikos, so toioutos also kai are those ho who are of dust choikos; and kai as hoios is the ho man of heaven epouranios, so toioutos also kai are those ho who are of heaven epouranios. ⁴⁹ And kai even as kathōs we have borne phoreō the ho image eikōn of the ho man of dust choikos, let us also kai bear phoreō the ho likeness eikōn of the ho man of heaven epouranios

⁵⁰ Now de this houtos I declare phēmi, brothers adelphos, that hoti flesh sarx and kai blood haima cannot ou inherit klēronomeō the kingdom basileia of God theos, nor oude does klēronomeō the ho perishable phthora inherit klēronomeō the ho imperishable aphtharsia. ⁵¹ Listen idou, I tell legō you hymeis a mystery mystērion: we will not ou all pas die koimaō, but de we will all pas be changed allassō— ⁵² in en an instant atomos, in en the twinkling rhipē of an eye ophthalmos, at en the ho last eschatos trumpet salpinx. For gar the trumpet will sound salpizō, and kai the ho dead nekros will be raised egeirō imperishable aphthartos, and kai we hēmeis will be changed allassō. ⁵³ For gar this houtos perishable phthartos body must dei · ho put on endyō imperishability aphtharsia, and kai · ho this houtos mortal thnētos body must put on endyō immortality athanasia. ⁵⁴ So de when hotan · ho this houtos perishable phthartos body puts on endyō imperishability aphtharsia, and kai · ho this houtos mortal thnētos body puts on endyō immortality athanasia, then tote the ho saying logos that ho is written graphō will be fulfilled ginomai: “ Death thanatos has been swallowed katapinō up · ho in eis victory nikos.” ⁵⁵ “ Where pou, O death thanatos, is your sy · ho victory nikos? Where pou, O death thanatos, is your sy · ho sting kentron?” ⁵⁶ The ho · de sting kentron of ho death thanatos is · ho sin hamartia, and de the ho power dynamis of ho sin hamartia is the ho law nomos. ⁵⁷ But de thanks charis be to ho God theos, who ho gives didōmi us hēmeis the ho victory nikos through dia · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos!

⁵⁸ So then hōste, my egō dear agapētos brothers adelphos, be ginomai steadfast hedraios, immovable ametakinētos, always pantote abounding perisseuō in en the ho work ergon of the ho Lord kyrios, since you know oida that hoti · ho your hymeis labor kopos is eimi not ou in vain kenos in en the Lord kyrios.

16 Now de concerning peri the ho collection logeia · ho for eis the ho saints hagios: as hōsper I directed diatassō the ho churches ekklēsia of ho Galatia Galatia, so houtōs you hymeis also kai are to do poieō. ² On kata the first heis day of the week sabbaton, each hekastos of you hymeis should put tithēmi something hos aside para heautou as ean he may prosper euodoō and save thēsaurizō it, so that hina when hotan I come erchomai, collections logeia will not mē have to be made ginomai. ³ And de when hotan I arrive paraginomai, I will dispatch pempō with dia letters epistolē of introduction whomever hos ean you approve dokimazō to carry apopherō · ho your hymeis gift charis to eis Jerusalem Ierousalēm. ⁴ And de if ean it seems eimi advisable axios that ho I should go poreuō also kagō, they will go poreuō with syn me egō.

⁵ But de I will come erchomai to pros you hymeis after hotan I have gone through dierchomai Macedonia Makedonia— for gar I intend to go through dierchomai Macedonia Makedonia— ⁶ and de it may be that tynchanō I will stay paramenō awhile with pros you hymeis, or ē even kai spend the winter paracheimazō, so that hina you hymeis can help me egō continue propempō my journey , wherever hou ean I go poreuō. ⁷ For gar I do not ou want thelō to see you hymeis now arti just in en passing parodos, for gar I hope elpizō to spend epimenō some tis time chronos with pros you hymeis, if ean the ho Lord kyrios permits epitrepō. ⁸ But de I will stay epimenō in en Ephesus Ephesos until heōs · ho Pentecost pentēkostē, ⁹ for gar a door thura that offers wide megas and kai effective energēs ministry stands open anoigō for me egō, · kai although there are many polys adversaries antikeimai.

¹⁰ Now de if ean Timothy Timotheos comes erchomai, see blepō that hina he has ginomai nothing to fear aphobōs while he is with pros you hymeis, for gar he is doing ergazomai the ho Lord’ s kyrios work ergon, just as hōs I kagō am. ¹¹ So oun no mē one tis should treat him autos with contempt exoutheneō. Help propempō · de him autos continue his journey in en peace eirēnē, that hina he may come erchomai to pros me egō; for gar I am expecting ekdechomai him autos with meta the ho brothers adelphos.

¹² Now de concerning peri Apollos Apollōs our ho brother adelphos: I strongly polys urged parakaleō him autos to hina go erchomai to pros you hymeis with meta the ho other brothers adelphos, but kai it was eimi not ou at all pantōs his intention thelēma to hina go erchomai now nyn. He will go erchomai · de when hotan he has an opportunity eukaireō.

¹³ Stay on guard grēgoreō, continue to stand stēkō firm in en the ho faith pistis, be men of courage andrizomai, grow in strength krataioō. ¹⁴ Everything pas you hymeis do should be done ginomai in en love agapē. ¹⁵ You know oida that hoti the ho household oikia of Stephanus Stephanas were eimi the first aparchē converts in the ho province of Achaia Achaia, and kai that they devoted tassō themselves heautou to eis the service diakonia of the ho saints hagios. So de I urge parakaleō you hymeis, brothers adelphos, ¹⁶ that hina you hymeis also kai submit hypotassō to ho such as these toioutos, and kai to everyone pas who ho assists in the work synergeō and kai labors kopiaō in it. ¹⁷ But de I rejoice chairō at epi the ho coming parousia of Stephanas Stephanas, · kai Fortunatus Phortounatos, and kai Achaicus Achaikos because hoti they houtos have supplied anaplēroō what ho was lacking hysterēma from you hymeteros, ¹⁸ for gar they have refreshed anapauō · ho my emos spirit pneuma and kai · ho yours hymeis. Therefore oun recognize epiginōskō the worth of ho such men toioutos.

¹⁹ The ho churches ekklēsia of ho Asia Asia send their greetings aspazomai to you hymeis. Aquila Akylas and kai Prisca Priska, along with syn the ho church ekklēsia that meets in kata their autos house oikos, send their special polys greetings aspazomai in en the Lord kyrios. ²⁰ All pas the ho brothers adelphos send you hymeis greetings aspazomai. Greet aspazomai one another allēlōn with en a holy hagios kiss philēma.

²¹ This ho greeting aspasmos is in ho my emos own hand cheir, Paul Paulos. ²² If ei anyone tis does not ou love phileō the ho Lord kyrios, let him be eimi accursed anathema. Our Lord has come! ²³ May the ho grace charis of the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous be with meta you hymeis. ²⁴ · ho My egō love agapē be with meta you hymeis all pas in en Christ Christos Jesus Iēsous.
