1 Corinthians 6:2
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?
Or know ye not that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Do you not know that the saints (God’s people) will [one day] judge the world? If the world is to be judged by you, are you not competent to try trivial (insignificant, petty) cases?
Do you not know that the saints (the believers) will [one day] judge and govern the world? And if the world [itself] is to be judged and ruled by you, are you unworthy and incompetent to try [such petty matters] of the smallest courts of justice?
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?
Or don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the trivial cases?
Or don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the trivial cases?
Or don’t you know that God’s people will judge the world? If the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to judge trivial cases?
Don’t you know that God’s people are going to judge the universe? If you are going to judge the universe, are you incompetent to judge these minor matters?
Don't you know that God's people will judge the world? And if you are going to judge the world, can't you settle small problems?
Do ye not then know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy of [the] smallest judgments?
Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy of the smallest cases?
Know you not that the saints shall judge this world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Don’t you know that God’s people will judge the world? So if you will judge the world, then surely you can judge small arguments like this.
It is God's people who will judge all the people in the world one day. You surely know that. Since that is true, you should be able to decide about small quarrels between yourselves.
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you not competent to deal with insignificant lawsuits?
Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?
Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?
·Surely [L Don’t…?] you know that ·God’s people [T the saints] will judge the world. So if you are to judge the world, are you not able to judge ·small [trivial; the smallest of] cases as well?
Do ye not know that the Saints shall judge the world? If the world then shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Don’t you know that God’s people will judge the world? So if you’re going to judge the world, aren’t you capable of judging insignificant cases?
Don't you know that God's people will judge the world? Well, then, if you are to judge the world, aren't you capable of judging small matters?
Or don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest cases?
Surely you know that God’s people will judge the world. So if you are to judge the world, then surely you are able to judge small things as well.
You know that the saints will rule the world, don’t you? And if the world is going to be ruled by you, can’t you handle insignificant cases?
When any of you has a grievance against another, aren’t you ashamed to bring the matter to be settled before a pagan court instead of before the church? Don’t you know that Christians will one day judge the world? And if you are to judge the world do you consider yourselves incapable of settling such infinitely smaller matters? Don’t you also know that we shall judge the very angels themselves—how much more then matters of this world only! In any case, if you find you have to judge matters of this world, why choose as judges those who count for nothing in the church? I say this deliberately to rouse your sense of shame. Are you really unable to find among your number one man with enough sense to decide a dispute between one and another of you, or must one brother resort to law against another and that before those who have no faith in Christ! It is surely obvious that something must be seriously wrong in your church for you to be having lawsuits at all. Why not let yourself be wronged or cheated? For when you go to law against your brother you yourself do him wrong, for you cheat him of Christian love and forgiveness.
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?

Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not worthy to constitute the smallest law courts?
Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if by you the world is judged, are you unworthy of the most insignificant courts?
Don’t you know that someday we Christians are going to judge and govern the world? So why can’t you decide even these little things among yourselves?
And how dare you take each other to court! When you think you have been wronged, does it make any sense to go before a court that knows nothing of God’s ways instead of a family of Christians? The day is coming when the world is going to stand before a jury made up of followers of Jesus. If someday you are going to rule on the world’s fate, wouldn’t it be a good idea to practice on some of these smaller cases? Why, we’re even going to judge angels! So why not these everyday affairs? As these disagreements and wrongs surface, why would you ever entrust them to the judgment of people you don’t trust in any other way?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you not competent to settle trivial suits?
Or don’t you know that the Lord’s people will judge the world? Since this is true, aren’t you able to judge small cases?

Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Did you not know that those who belong to Christ will someday judge this world? If you judge the people of the world as guilty, are you not able to do this in small things?
Don’t you realize that someday we believers will judge the world? And since you are going to judge the world, can’t you decide even these little things among yourselves?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world will be judged by you, are you not good enough to judge small trifles?

Don’t you know that God’s people will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you really incompetent to try smaller matters?
Or do you not have da’as that the Kadoshim will sit in mishpat over the Olam Hazeh? And if the Olam Hazeh is to be judged by you, are you incompetent dayanim to try the smallest cases?
Do you not know that the Saints shall judge the world? If the world then shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases?
Don’t you know that the kedoshim will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to judge trivial matters?
Don’t you know that His people are destined to judge the world? If you have the authority to judge the world, can’t you handle these small matters and render a better judgment than the civil courts?
Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
Do you not know that some day God's people will judge the world? If you are going to judge the world, can you not judge small things now?
Whether ye know not, that saints shall deem this world? And if the world shall be deemed by you, be ye unworthy to deem the least things?
have ye not known that the saints shall judge the world? and if by you the world is judged, are ye unworthy of the smaller judgments?
