1 Corinthians - Chapter: 4


4:1	Let men thus wyse esteme vs, euen as the ministers of Christ, and disposers of the secretes of of God.
4:2	Furthermore it is requyred of the dysposers, that they be found faithfull.
4:3	Wyth me it is but a very smal thinge, that I shoulde be iudged of you, eyther of (mans daye). No I iudge not myne owne selfe.
4:4	I knowe nought by my selfe: yet am I not therby iustified. It is the Lorde that iudgeth me.
4:5	Therfore iudge nothinge before the tyme vntill the Lorde come, who wyll lyghten thinges, that are hyd in darckenes, and open the counsels of the hertes. And then shall euery man haue praise of God.
4:6	These thinges brethren I haue described in myne owne person and Apollos for youre sakes, that ye myght learne by vs, that no man counte of him selfe beionde that, which is aboue written: that one swell not against another for anye mans cause.
4:7	For who preferreth the? What haste thou, that thou hast not receyued? Yf thou haue receyued it ewhy reioyseste thou as thoughe thou haddeste not receiued it?
4:8	Now ye are ful: now ye are made rych: ye reigne as kinges without vs: and I would to God ye dyd reygne that we might reygne wyth you.
4:9	Me thinketh that God hath sente forth vs, which are Apostles for the lowest, of al as it were men appointed to death. For we are a gasyng stoke vnto the world, and to the aungels, and to men.
4:10	We are foles for Christes sake and ye are wise thorow Christe. We are weake, and ye are stronge. Ye are honorable, and we are despised.
4:11	Euen vnto this daye we honger and thyrst, and are naked, and are boffetted wyth fystes, and haue no certayne dwellinge place,
4:12	and labour workinge wyth oure handes. We are reuiled, & yet we blesse. We are persecuted and suffer it.
4:13	We are euyl spoken of and we pray. We are made as it were the filthines of the worlde, the ofscowring of all thynges, euen vnto this time.
4:14	I wryte not these thinges to shame you but as my beloued sonnes I warne you.
4:15	For thoughe ye haue ten thousand instructours in Christ: yet haue ye not many fathers. In Christe Iesu, I haue begotten you thorowe the Gospell.
4:16	Wherfore I desyre you to folowe me.
4:17	For this cause haue I sent vnto you Tymotheus, which is my deare sonne, and faithfull in the Lorde, whiche shall put you in remembraunce of my waies, whiche I haue in Christ euen as I teache euery wher in all congregations.
4:18	Some swell as though, I would come no more at you.
4:19	But I wil come to you shortly yf God wil: and will knowe not the wordes of them, which swel, but the power,
4:20	for the kyngdom of God is not in wordes, but in power.
4:21	What wyll ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rodde, or els in loue and in the spyryte of mekenes?


4:1	Let a man this wyse esteme vs, euen as the minysters of Christ, and stewards of the secretes of God.
4:2	Furthermore it is required of the stewardes, that a man be founde faythfull.
4:3	Wyth me is it but a very small thynge, that I shuld be iudged of you, ether of mans iudgement. No I iudge not myne awne selfe.
4:4	For I knowe nought by my selfe: yet am I not therby iustifyed. It is the Lorde that iudgeth me.
4:5	Therfore iudge nothinge before the tyme vntyll the Lorde come, whych wyll lyghten thinges that are hyd in darcknes, and open the counsels of the hertes. And then shall euery man haue prayse of God.
4:6	These thynges (brethren) I haue for an ensample described in myne awne person, & in Apollos, for youre sakes, that ye myght learne by vs, that noman counte of hym selfe beyonde that which is aboue wrytten: that one swell not agaynst another for eny mans cause.
4:7	For who preferreth the? What hast thou, that thou hast not receaued? If thou haue receaued it, why reioysest thou, as though thou haddest not receaued it?
4:8	Nowe ye are full: nowe ye are made ryche: ye raygne as kinges without vs: and I wolde to God ye dyd raygne, that we myght raygne with you.
4:9	For me thynketh, that God hath set forth vs (which are the last Apostles) as it were men appoynted to deeth. For we are a gasynge stocke vnto the worlde, and to the Angels, and to men.
4:10	We are fooles for Christes sake, but ye are wyse thorowe Chryst. We weake, but ye are stronge. Ye are honorable, but we are despysed.
4:11	Euen vnto this tyme we honger and thyrst, and are naked, and are boffeted with fystes, and haue no certayne dwellynge place,
4:12	& laboure, worckynge wt oure awne handes. We are reuyled, and yet we blesse. We are persecuted, and suffer it.
4:13	We are euyll spoken of, & we praye. We are made as it were the fylthines of the worlde, the ofscowrynge of all thynges, euen vnto thys daye.
4:14	I wryte not these thynges, to shame you: but as my beloued sonnes I warne you.
4:15	For though ye haue ten thousande instructours in Chryst: yet haue ye not many fathers. In Chryst Iesu I haue begotten you thorow the Gospell.
4:16	Wherfore, I desyre you to folowe me.
4:17	For thys cause haue I sent vnto you Tymotheus, which is my deare sonne, and faythfull in the Lorde, whych shall put you in remembraunce of my wayes, that I haue in Chryst, euen as I teach euery where in all congregacions.
4:18	Some swell, as though I wold come nomore at you.
4:19	But I wyll come to you shortely yf God wyll: & will know, not the wordes of them which swell but the power:
4:20	for the Kyngdome of God is not in wordes, but in power.
4:21	What wyll ye? Shall I come vnto you with a rodde, or els in loue and in the sprete of softnesse?


4:1	Let a man so thinke of vs, as of the ministers of Christ, and disposers of the secrets of God:
4:2	And as for the rest, it is required of the disposers, that euery man be found faithfull.
4:3	As touching me, I passe very litle to be iudged of you, or of mans iudgement: no, I iudge not mine owne selfe.
4:4	For I know nothing by my selfe, yet am I not thereby iustified: but he that iudgeth me, is the Lord.
4:5	Therefore iudge nothing before the time, vntill the Lord come, who will lighten things that are hid in darkenesse, and make the counsels of the hearts manifest: and then shall euery man haue praise of God.
4:6	Nowe these things, brethren, I haue figuratiuely applied vnto mine owne selfe and Apollos, for your sakes, that ye might learne by vs, that no man presume aboue that which is written, that one swell not against another for any mans cause.
4:7	For who separateth thee? and what hast thou, that thou hast not receiued? if thou hast receiued it, why reioycest thou, as though thou haddest not receiued it?
4:8	Nowe ye are full: nowe ye are made rich: ye reigne as kings without vs, and would to God ye did reigne, that we also might reigne with you.
4:9	For I thinke that God hath set forth vs the last Apostles, as men appointed to death: for we are made a gasing stocke vnto the worlde, and to the Angels, and to men.
4:10	We are fooles for Christes sake, and ye are wise in Christ: we are weake, and ye are strong: ye are honourable, and we are despised.
4:11	Vnto this houre we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and haue no certaine dwelling place,
4:12	And labour, working with our owne handes: we are reuiled, and yet we blesse: we are persecuted, and suffer it.
4:13	We are euill spoken of, and we pray: we are made as the filth of the world, the offskowring of all things, vnto this time.
4:14	I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloued children I admonish you.
4:15	For though ye haue tenne thousand instructours in Christ, yet haue ye not many fathers: for in Christ Iesus I haue begotten you through the Gospel.
4:16	Wherefore, I pray you, be ye folowers of me.
4:17	For this cause haue I sent vnto you Timotheus, which is my beloued sonne, and faithfull in the Lord, which shall put you in remembrance of my wayes in Christ as I teache euery where in euery Church.
4:18	Some are puffed vp as though I woulde not come vnto you.
4:19	But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will knowe, not the wordes of them which are puffed vp, but the power.
4:20	For the kingdome of God is not in worde, but in power.
4:21	What will ye? shall I come vnto you with a rod, or in loue, and in ye spirite of meekenes?
