1 Corinthians 6
1 If any of you has a grievance against another, how dare he go to law before the unrighteous instead of before the saints!
Audet aliquis vestrum habens negotium adversus alterum, iudicari apud iniquos, et non apud sanctos?
2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases?
An nescitis quoniam sancti de hoc mundo iudicabunt? Et si in vobis iudicabitur mundus, indigni estis qui de minimis iudicetis?
3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!
Nescitis quoniam angelos iudicabimus? quanto magis saecularia?
4 So if you need to settle everyday matters, do you appoint as judges those of no standing in the church?
Saecularia igitur iudicia si habueritis: contemptibiles, qui sunt in Ecclesia, illos constituite ad iudicandum.
5 I say this to your shame. Is there really no one among you wise enough to arbitrate between his brothers?
Ad verecundiam vestram dico. Sic non est inter vos sapiens quisquam, qui possit iudicare inter fratrem suum?
6 Instead, one brother goes to law against another, and this in front of unbelievers!
Sed frater cum fratre iudicio contendit: et hoc apud infideles?
7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means that you are thoroughly defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
Iam quidem omnino delictum est in vobis, quod iudicia habetis inter vos. Quare non magis iniuriam accipitis? quare non magis fraudem patimini?
8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, even against your own brothers!
Sed vos iniuriam facitis, et fraudatis: et hoc fratribus.
9 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who submit to or perform homosexual acts,
An nescitis quia iniqui regnum Dei non possidebunt? Nolite errare: Neque fornicarii, neque idolis servientes, neque adulteri,
10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.
neque molles, neque masculorum concubitores, neque fures, neque avari, neque ebriosi, neque maledici, neque rapaces regnum Dei possidebunt.
11 And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Et haec quidem fuistis: sed abluti estis, sed sanctificati estis, sed iustificati estis in nomine Domini nostri Iesu Christi, et in Spiritu Dei nostri.
12 “Everything is permissible for me,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is permissible for me,” but I will not be mastered by anything.
Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia expediunt: Omnia mihi licent, sed ego sub nullis redigar potestate.
13 “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food,” but God will destroy them both. The body is not intended for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
Esca ventri, et venter escis: Deus autem et hunc, et has destruet: corpus autem non fornicationi, sed Domino: et Dominus corpori.
14 By His power God raised the Lord from the dead, and He will raise us also.
Deus vero et Dominum suscitavit: et nos suscitabit per virtutem suam.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never!
Nescitis quoniam corpora vestra membra sunt Christi? Tollens ergo membra Christi, faciam membra meretricis? Absit.
16 Or don’t you 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.”
An nescitis quoniam qui adhaeret meretrici, unum corpus efficitur? Erunt enim (inquit) duo in carne una.
17 But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with Him in spirit.
Qui autem adhaeret Domino, unus spiritus est.
18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a man can commit is outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.
Fugite fornicationem. Omne enim peccatum, quodcumque fecerit homo, extra corpus est: qui autem fornicatur, in corpus suum peccat.
19 Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;
An nescitis quoniam membra vestra, templum sunt Spiritus sancti, qui in vobis est, quem habetis a Deo, et non estis vestri?
20 you were bought at a price. Therefore glorify God with your body.
Empti enim estis pretio magno. Glorificate, et portate Deum in corpore vestro.
