1 Coríntios 6
Portuguese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
Julgando problemas entre cristãos
6 Quando algum de vocês tem uma queixa contra um irmão ou uma irmã na fé, por que vai a juízes que não são do povo de Deus? Por que não deixa o povo de Deus decidir quem tem razão? 2 Vocês não sabem que o povo de Deus vai julgar esta sociedade injusta? E se vocês vão julgar esta sociedade injusta, não são por acaso capazes de julgar sequer estes processos judiciais? 3 Não sabem que julgaremos até os anjos? Quanto mais, então, os assuntos do dia a dia! 4 Entretanto, quando vocês têm desacordos para serem julgados, por que vocês levam estas coisas para homens que não têm nenhuma aceitação na igreja? 5 Digo isto para deixar vocês envergonhados. Será que não há pelo menos um entre vocês, que tenha bastante sabedoria para julgar desacordos entre irmãos? 6 Mas um irmão leva ao tribunal outro irmão, e vocês deixam que pessoas que não acreditam em Cristo os julguem!
7 Só o fato de haver processos entre irmãos, já é completa derrota para vocês. Não seria melhor vocês sofrerem a injustiça? Não seria melhor vocês se deixarem roubar? 8 Mas vocês mesmos cometem injustiça ao roubar uns aos outros, e fazem isto aos próprios irmãos em Cristo!
9-10 Vocês não sabem que os injustos não herdarão o reino de Deus? Não se enganem! Nem os que são sexualmente imorais, nem os adoradores de falsos deuses, nem os adúlteros, nem os homens promíscuos, nem os abusadores sexuais, nem os que roubam, nem os avarentos, nem os bêbados, nem os que falam mal dos outros, nem os enganadores vão herdar o reino de Deus. 11 Assim eram alguns de vocês. Mas vocês foram lavados, dedicados ao serviço de Deus, e declarados justos diante de Deus, em nome do Senhor Jesus Cristo e pelo Espírito do nosso Deus.
Usem o corpo de vocês para a glória de Deus
12 “Posso fazer todas as coisas que eu quiser”, mas nem todas são boas para mim. “Posso fazer todas as coisas que eu quiser”, mas não me deixarei dominar por nenhuma delas. 13 É verdade que: “Os alimentos são para o estômago e o estômago para os alimentos”. Mas Deus vai destruir os dois. Porém o corpo não é para a imoralidade sexual. O corpo é para o Senhor e o Senhor é para o corpo[a]. 14 Deus ressuscitou ao Senhor e também nos ressuscitará pelo seu poder. 15 Vocês não sabem que os seus corpos são partes do corpo de Cristo? Por acaso eu vou pegar as partes do corpo de Cristo e uni-las a uma prostituta? De maneira nenhuma! 16 Ou vocês não sabem que o homem que se une a uma prostituta forma um só corpo com ela? As Escrituras dizem: “Eles se tornarão um só corpo”.(A) 17 Mas aquele que se une ao Senhor, é um com o Senhor em espírito.
18 Fujam da imoralidade sexual! Qualquer outro pecado que uma pessoa cometer, é fora do corpo. Mas aquele que comete imoralidade sexual, peca contra o próprio corpo. 19 Vocês não sabem que os seus corpos são templos[b] do Espírito Santo, o qual está em vocês e foi dado por Deus? Vocês não pertencem a vocês mesmos! 20 Vocês foram comprados por um preço, portanto deem glória a Deus com seus corpos.
1 Corinthians 6
King James Version
6 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?
2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.
5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?
6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.
7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.
15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
1 Corinthians 6
New International Version
Lawsuits Among Believers
6 If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people?(A) 2 Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world?(B) And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life! 4 Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, do you ask for a ruling from those whose way of life is scorned in the church? 5 I say this to shame you.(C) Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers?(D) 6 But instead, one brother(E) takes another to court—and this in front of unbelievers!(F)
7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?(G) 8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters.(H) 9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God?(I) Do not be deceived:(J) Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers(K) nor men who have sex with men[a](L) 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers(M) will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And that is what some of you were.(N) But you were washed,(O) you were sanctified,(P) you were justified(Q) in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Sexual Immorality
12 “I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial.(R) “I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything. 13 You say, “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will destroy them both.”(S) The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality but for the Lord,(T) and the Lord for the body. 14 By his power God raised the Lord from the dead,(U) and he will raise us also.(V) 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself?(W) Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! 16 Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.”[b](X) 17 But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.[c](Y)
18 Flee from sexual immorality.(Z) All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body.(AA) 19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples(AB) of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;(AC) 20 you were bought at a price.(AD) Therefore honor God with your bodies.(AE)

Do Not Sue the Brethren
6 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the (A)saints? 2 Do you not know that (B)the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Do you not know that we shall (C)judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? 4 If then you have [a]judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge? 5 I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren? 6 But brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers!
7 Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. (D)Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated? 8 No, you yourselves do wrong and cheat, and you do these things to your brethren! 9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. (E)Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor [b]homosexuals, nor [c]sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were (F)some of you. (G)But you were washed, but you were [d]sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
Glorify God in Body and Spirit
12 (H)All things are lawful for me, but all things are not [e]helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of [f]any. 13 (I)Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for (J)sexual immorality but (K)for the Lord, (L)and the Lord for the body. 14 And (M)God both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up (N)by His power.
15 Do you not know that (O)your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For (P)“the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.” 17 (Q)But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.
18 (R)Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins (S)against his own body. 19 Or (T)do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, (U)and you are not your own? 20 For (V)you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body [g]and in your spirit, which are God’s.
