1 Corinthians 6

1 Dare any of you, hauing businesse against an other, be iudged vnder the vniust, and not vnder the Saintes?

Dare any of you, having a matter of complaint against another, try it before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 Doe ye not knowe, that the Saintes shall iudge the worlde? If the worlde then shalbe iudged by you, are ye vnworthie to iudge the smallest matters?

Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy of judging the smallest controversies?

3 Knowe ye not that we shall iudge the Angels? howe much more, things that perteine to this life?

Know ye not that we shall judge angels? what! and not worthy of judging the affairs of this life?

4 If then ye haue iudgements of things perteining to this life, set vp them which are least esteemed in the Church.

Therefore if ye have controversies about the things of this life, do ye set them to judge, who are despised by the church?

5 I speake it to your shame. Is it so that there is not a wise man among you? no not one, that can iudge betweene his brethren?

I speak it to your shame. What! is there not one wise man among you, that is able to judge between his bretheren?

6 But a brother goeth to law with a brother, and that vnder the infidels.

But one brother goeth to law with another, and this before infidels.

7 Nowe therefore there is altogether infirmitie in you, in that yee goe to lawe one with another: why rather suffer ye not wrong? why rather susteine yee not harme?

Now there is certainly a fault among you, that ye have law-suits with one another: why do ye not rather endure wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

8 Nay, yee your selues doe wrong, and doe harme, and that to your brethren.

But ye do wrong and defraud, and that even your brethren.

9 Knowe yee not that the vnrighteous shall not inherite the kingdome of God? Be not deceiued: neither fornicatours, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor wantons, nor buggerers,

What! know ye not that the unjust shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor sodomites, nor thieves,

10 Nor theeues, nor couetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners shall inherite the kingdome of God.

nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor rapacious persons, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And such were some of you: but yee are washed, but yee are sanctified, but yee are iustified in the Name of the Lord Iesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

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 thinges are lawfull vnto mee, but all thinges are not profitable. I may doe all things, but I will not be brought vnder the power of any thing.

All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be under the power of any:

13 Meates are ordeined for the bellie, and the belly for the meates: but God shall destroy both it, and them. Nowe the bodie is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the bodie.

meats are for the belly, and the belly for meats, but God will destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

14 And God hath also raised vp the Lord, and shall raise vs vp by his power.

And as God hath raised up the Lord, so will He raise up us by his power.

15 Knowe yee 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.

Know ye not that your bodies are members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of an harlot?

16 Doe ye not knowe, that he which coupleth himselfe with an harlot, is one body? for two, sayeth he, shalbe one flesh.

God forbid! What! know ye not that he who is joined to an harlot is one body with her? for these two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17 But hee that is ioyned vnto the Lord, is one spirite.

And he that is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication: euery sinne that a man doeth, is without the bodie: but hee that committeth fornication, sinneth against his owne bodie.

Flee from whoredom. Every other sin, that a man committeth, is without the body; but he, that committeth whoredom, sinneth against his own body.

19 Knowe yee not, that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye haue of God? and yee are not your owne.

What! know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have from God?

20 For yee are bought for a price: therefore glorifie God in your bodie, and in your spirit: for they are Gods.

and ye are not your own, for ye are bought with a price. Glorify God therefore in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
