1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God. |
2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful. |
3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self. |
4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord. |
5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God. |
6 And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another. |
