Corinthios I 6
1 Audet aliquis vestrum habens negotium adversus alterum, iudicari apud iniquos, et non apud sanctos?
If any of you has a dispute against another, does he dare go to court before the unrighteous, instead of the saints?
2 An nescitis quoniam sancti de hoc mundo iudicabunt? Et si in vobis iudicabitur mundus, indigni estis qui de minimis iudicetis?
Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
3 Nescitis quoniam Angelos iudicabimus? Quanto magis sæcularia?
Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?
4 Sæcularia igitur iudicia si habueritis: contemptibiles, qui sunt in Ecclesia, illos constituite ad iudicandum!
If then, you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who have no standing in the church?
5 Ad verecundiam vestram dico. Sic non est inter vos sapiens quisquam, qui possit iudicare inter fratrem suum?
I say this to move you to shame. Is not there even one wise person among you who would be able to decide between a brother and his brother?
6 Sed frater cum fratre iudicio contendit: et hoc apud infideles!
But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers.
7 Iam quidem omnino delictum est in vobis, quod iudicia habetis inter vos. Quare non magis iniuriam accipitis? Quare non magis fraudem patimini?
Actually, it is already a defeat for you, that you have lawsuits among yourselves. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
8 Sed vos iniuriam facitis, et fraudatis: et hoc fratribus.
No, but you yourselves do wrong, and cheat, and that against your brothers.
9 An nescitis quia iniqui regnum Dei non possidebunt? Nolite errare: Neque fornicarii, neque idolis servientes, neque adulteri,
Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor men who have sexual relations with men,
10 neque molles, neque masculorum concubitores, neque fures, neque avari, neque ebriosi, neque maledici, neque rapaces regnum Dei possidebunt.
nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.
11 Et hæc quidam fuistis: sed abluti estis, sed sanctificati estis, sed iustificati estis in nomine Domini nostri Iesu Christi, et in Spiritu Dei nostri.
Such were some of you, but you were washed. But you were sanctified. But you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God.
12 Omnia mihi licent, sed non omnia expediunt: Omnia mihi licent, sed ego sub nullis redigar potestate.
"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are expedient. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be brought under the power of anything.
13 Esca ventri, et venter escis: Deus autem et hunc, et has destruet: corpus autem non fornicationi, sed Domino: et Dominus corpori.
"Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods," but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
14 Deus vero et Dominum suscitavit: et nos suscitabit per virtutem suam.
Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.
15 Nescitis quoniam corpora vestra membra sunt Christi? Tollens ergo membra Christi, faciam membra meretricis? Absit.
Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Should I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a prostitute? Absolutely not.
16 An nescitis quoniam qui adhæret meretrici, unum corpus efficitur? Erunt enim (inquit) duo in carne una.
Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For he says, "The two will become one flesh."
17 Qui autem adhæret Domino, unus spiritus est.
But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
18 Fugite fornicationem. Omne peccatum, quodcumque fecerit homo, extra corpus est: qui autem fornicatur, in corpus suum peccat.
Flee sexual immorality. "Every sin that a person does is outside the body," but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
19 An nescitis quoniam membra vestra, templum sunt Spiritus Sancti, qui in vobis est, quem habetis a Deo, et non estis vestri?
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
20 Empti enim estis pretio magno. Glorificate, et portate Deum in corpore vestro.
for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body.
