1 Corinthians 6

Third Millennium Bible TMB

1 Dare any of you, having a complaint against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? And if the world shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

4 If then ye have judgments to make on things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church!

5 I speak to shame you! Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, no, not one, who shall be able to judge between his brethren?

6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers!

7 Now therefore, there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one against another. Why do ye not rather accept wrong? Why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

8 Nay, ye do wrong and defraud, and that your own brethren!

9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Be not deceived: Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10 nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners shall inherit the Kingdom of God.

11 And such were some of you. But ye are washed, ye are sanctified, ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

12 "All things are lawful unto me," but all things are notŒexpedient. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be brought under the power of any.

13 "Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats," but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

14 And God hath both raised up the Lord and will also raise up us by His own power.

15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them the members of a harlot? God forbid!

16 What? Know ye not that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? "For two," saith He, "shall be one flesh."

17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

18 Flee fornication. Every other sin which a man doeth is outside the body, but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

19 What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you and which ye have from God, and that ye are not your own?

20 For ye are bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

1 When one of you has a complaint against another, how dare you go to court to settle the matter in front of wicked people. Why don't you settle it in front of God's holy people?

2 Don't you know that God's people will judge the world? So if you're going to judge the world, aren't you capable of judging insignificant cases?

3 Don't you know that we will judge angels, not to mention things in this life?

4 When you have cases dealing with this life, why do you allow people whom the church has a low opinion of to be your judges?

5 You should be ashamed of yourselves! Don't you have at least one wise person who is able to settle disagreements between believers?

6 Instead, one believer goes to court against another believer, and this happens in front of unbelievers.

7 You are already totally defeated because you have lawsuits against each other. Why don't you accept the fact that you have been wronged? Why don't you accept that you have been cheated?

8 Instead, you do wrong and cheat, and you do this to other believers.

9 Don't you know that wicked people won't inherit the kingdom of God? Stop deceiving yourselves! People who continue to commit sexual sins, who worship false gods, those who commit adultery, homosexuals,

10 or thieves, those who are greedy or drunk, who use abusive language, or who rob people will not inherit the kingdom of God.

11 That's what some of you were! But you have been washed and made holy, and you have received God's approval in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

12 Someone may say, "I'm allowed to do anything," but not everything is helpful. I'm allowed to do anything, but I won't allow anything to gain control over my life.

13 Food is for the stomach, and the stomach is for food, but God will put an end to both of them. However, the body is not for sexual sin but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body.

14 God raised the Lord, and by his power God will also raise us.

15 Don't you realize that your bodies are parts of Christ's body? Should I take the parts of Christ's body and make them parts of a prostitute's body? That's unthinkable!

16 Don't you realize that the person who unites himself with a prostitute becomes one body with her? God says, "The two will be one."

17 However, the person who unites himself with the Lord becomes one spirit with him.

18 Stay away from sexual sins. Other sins that people commit don't affect their bodies the same way sexual sins do. People who sin sexually sin against their own bodies.

19 Don't you know that your body is a temple that belongs to the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit, whom you received from God, lives in you. You don't belong to yourselves.

20 You were bought for a price. So bring glory to God in the way you use your body.
