1 Corinthians 4:3-6

Christian Standard Bible

³ It is of little^(A) importance to me that I should be judged^(B) by you or by any human court.^[a] In fact, I don’t even judge myself. ⁴ For I am not conscious of anything against myself, but I am not justified^(C) by this. It is the Lord who judges me. ⁵ So don’t judge^(D) anything prematurely, before the Lord comes,^(E) who will both bring to light what is hidden in darkness and reveal the intentions of the hearts. And then praise will come to each one from God.^(F)

The Apostles’ Example of Humility

⁶ Now, brothers and sisters,^(G) I have applied these things to myself and Apollos^(H) for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying: “Nothing beyond what is written.” The purpose is that none of you will be arrogant, favoring one person over another.
