1 Corinthians 4
1 So us should regard a man as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
ουτως ημας λογιζεσθω ανθρωπος ως υπηρετας χριστου και οικονομους μυστηριων θεου
2 (In this case *N+kO) moreover it is required in the stewards that faithful one may be found.
ο δε λοιπον ζητειται εν τοις οικονομοις ινα πιστος τις ευρεθη
3 Me myself however to [the] smallest matter it is that by you I may be examined or by a human court; In fact neither myself do I examine.
εμοι δε εις ελαχιστον εστιν ινα υφ υμων ανακριθω η υπο ανθρωπινης ημερας αλλ ουδε εμαυτον ανακρινω
4 No [thing] for against myself I have been conscious of; yet not by this have I been justified; the [One] however judging me [the] Lord is.
ουδεν γαρ εμαυτω συνοιδα αλλ ουκ εν τουτω δεδικαιωμαι ο δε ανακρινων με κυριος εστιν
5 So then not before [the] time anything do judge until when may have come the Lord, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the motives of the hearts; and then the praise will come to each from God.
ωστε μη προ καιρου τι κρινετε εως αν ελθη ο κυριος ος και φωτισει τα κρυπτα του σκοτους και φανερωσει τας βουλας των καρδιων και τοτε ο επαινος γενησεται εκαστω απο του θεου
6 These things now, brothers, I have applied to myself and Apollos on account of you, so that in us you may learn not beyond (what [things] *N+kO) has been written (to think *k) that not one for one you be puffed up over the other.
ταυτα δε αδελφοι μετεσχηματισα εις εμαυτον και απολλω δι υμας ινα εν ημιν μαθητε το μη υπερ ο γεγραπται φρονειν ινα μη εις υπερ του ενος φυσιουσθε κατα του ετερου
7 Who for you makes different? What now have you which not you did receive? If now even you did receive [it], why boast you as not having received [it]?
τις γαρ σε διακρινει τι δε εχεις ο ουκ ελαβες ει δε και ελαβες τι καυχασαι ως μη λαβων
8 Already satiated you are, already you have been enriched, apart from us you reigned; and I wish that really you did reign, so that also we ourselves you may reign with.
ηδη κεκορεσμενοι εστε ηδη επλουτησατε χωρις ημων εβασιλευσατε και οφελον γε εβασιλευσατε ινα και ημεις υμιν συμβασιλευσωμεν
9 I think for (that *k) God us apostles last has exhibited as appointed to death, because a spectacle we have become to the world both to angels and to men.
δοκω γαρ οτι ο θεος ημας τους αποστολους εσχατους απεδειξεν ως επιθανατιους οτι θεατρον εγενηθημεν τω κοσμω και αγγελοις και ανθρωποις
10 We ourselves [are] fools on account of Christ you yourselves however wise in Christ; we ourselves weak you yourselves however strong; You yourselves honored we ourselves however without honor.
ημεις μωροι δια χριστον υμεις δε φρονιμοι εν χριστω ημεις ασθενεις υμεις δε ισχυροι υμεις ενδοξοι ημεις δε ατιμοι
11 As far as the present hour both we hunger and thirst and are poorly clad and are buffeted and wander homeless
αχρι της αρτι ωρας και πεινωμεν και διψωμεν και γυμνητευομεν και κολαφιζομεθα και αστατουμεν
12 and we toil working with [our] own hands; Being reviled we bless, being persecuted we endure,
και κοπιωμεν εργαζομενοι ταις ιδιαις χερσιν λοιδορουμενοι ευλογουμεν διωκομενοι ανεχομεθα
13 (being defamed *N+kO) we entreat, As [the] scum of the earth we have become, of all [the] refuse until now.
βλασφημουμενοι παρακαλουμεν ως περικαθαρματα του κοσμου εγενηθημεν παντων περιψημα εως αρτι
14 Not shaming you do I write these things, but as children of mine beloved (admonishing [you]. *N+kO)
ουκ εντρεπων υμας γραφω ταυτα αλλ ως τεκνα μου αγαπητα νουθετω
15 If for ten thousand guardians you shall have in Christ yet not many fathers; in for Christ Jesus through the gospel I myself you begot.
εαν γαρ μυριους παιδαγωγους εχητε εν χριστω αλλ ου πολλους πατερας εν γαρ χριστω ιησου δια του ευαγγελιου εγω υμας εγεννησα
16 I exhort therefore you, imitators of mine do become.
παρακαλω ουν υμας μιμηται μου γινεσθε
17 On account of this I sent to you Timothy, who is my child beloved and faithful in [the] Lord, who you will remind of the ways of mine that [are] in Christ (Jesus, *NO) even as everywhere in every church I teach.
δια τουτο επεμψα υμιν τιμοθεον ος εστιν τεκνον μου αγαπητον και πιστον εν κυριω ος υμας αναμνησει τας οδους μου τας εν χριστω καθως πανταχου εν παση εκκλησια διδασκω
18 As to not coming now of me to you were puffed up some;
ως μη ερχομενου δε μου προς υμας εφυσιωθησαν τινες
19 I will come however soon to you, if the Lord wishes, and I will find out not the talk of those puffed up but the power.
ελευσομαι δε ταχεως προς υμας εαν ο κυριος θεληση και γνωσομαι ου τον λογον των πεφυσιωμενων αλλα την δυναμιν
20 Not for in word the kingdom of God [is] but in power.
ου γαρ εν λογω η βασιλεια του θεου αλλ εν δυναμει
21 What desire you? With a rod I may come to you or in love a spirit then of gentleness?
τι θελετε εν ραβδω ελθω προς υμας η εν αγαπη πνευματι τε πραοτητος
