1 Corinthians 6:1-11

RHE

NIV

1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust: and not before the saints?
1 If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people?
2 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?
2 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?
3 Know you not that we shall judge angels? How much more things of this world?
3 Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!
4 If therefore you have judgments of things pertaining to this world, set them to judge who are the most despised in the church.
4 Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, do you ask for a ruling from those whose way of life is scorned in the church?
5 I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not among you any one wise man that is able to judge between his brethren?
5 I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers?
6 But brother goeth to law with brother: and that before unbelievers.
6 But instead, one brother takes another to court—and this in front of unbelievers!
7 Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have law suits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?
7 The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
8 But you do wrong and defraud: and that to your brethren.
8 Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers and sisters.
9 Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: Neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers:
9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men
10 Nor the effeminate nor liers with mankind nor thieves nor covetous nor drunkards nor railers nor extortioners shall possess the kingdom of God.
10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such some of you were. But you are washed: but you are sanctified: but you are justified: in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Spirit of our God.
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.
