1 Corinthians 4:6-8
New English Translation
6 I have applied these things to myself and Apollos because of you, brothers and sisters,[a] so that through us you may learn “not to go beyond what is written,” so that none of you will be puffed up in favor of the one against the other. 7 For who concedes you any superiority? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you received it, why do you boast as though you did not? 8 Already you are satisfied! Already you are rich! You have become kings without us! I wish you had become kings so that we could reign with you!

6 Now these things, brothers, I have applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us you may learn not to go beyond (A)what is written, so that no one of you will (B)become puffed up (C)on behalf of one against the other. 7 For who regards you as superior? (D)What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?
8 You are (E)already filled, you have already become rich, you have ruled without us—and how I wish that you had ruled indeed so that we also might rule with you.

New International Version
6 Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.”(A) Then you will not be puffed up in being a follower of one of us over against the other.(B) 7 For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive?(C) And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?
8 Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich!(D) You have begun to reign—and that without us! How I wish that you really had begun to reign so that we also might reign with you!
