哥林多前书 第 6 章

¹你们中间有彼此相争的事，怎敢在不义的人面前求审，不在圣徒面前求审呢？Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

²岂不知圣徒要审判世界么？若世界为你们所审，难道你们不配审判这最小的事么？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岂不知我们要审判天使么？何况今生的事呢？Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

⁴既是这样，你们若有今生的事当审判，是派教会所轻看的人审判么？If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

⁵我说这话是要叫你们羞耻。难道你们中间没有一个智慧人能审断弟兄们的事么？I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?

⁶你们竟是弟兄与弟兄告状，而且告在不信主的人面前。But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.

⁷你们彼此告状，这已经是你们的大错了。为甚么不情愿受欺呢？为甚么不情愿吃亏呢？Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

⁸你们倒是欺压人、亏负人，况且所欺压所亏负的就是弟兄。Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.

⁹你们岂不知不义的人不能承受神的国么？不要自欺！无论是淫乱的、拜偶像的、奸淫的、作娈童的、亲男色的、Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

¹⁰偷窃的、贪婪的、醉酒的、辱骂的、勒索的，都不能承受神的国。Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

¹¹你们中间也有人从前是这样；但如今你们奉主耶稣基督的名，并借着我们神的灵，已经洗净，成圣，称义了。And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

¹²凡事我都可行，但不都有益处。凡事我都可行，但无论那一件，我总不受他的辖制。All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

¹³食物是为肚腹，肚腹是为食物；但神要叫这两样都废坏。身子不是为淫乱，乃是为主；主也是为身子。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并且神已经叫主复活，也要用自己的能力叫我们复活。And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.

¹⁵岂不知你们的身子是基督的肢体么？我可以将基督的肢体作为娼妓的肢体么？断乎不可！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 an harlot? God forbid.

¹⁶岂不知与娼妓联合的，便是与他成为一体么？因为主说：二人要成为一体。What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

¹⁷但与主联合的，便是与主成为一灵。But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

¹⁸你们要逃避淫行。人所犯的，无论甚么罪，都在身子以外，惟有行淫的，是得罪自己的身子。Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

¹⁹岂不知你们的身子就是圣灵的殿么？这圣灵是从神而来，住在你们里头的；并且你们不是自己的人；What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

²⁰因为你们是重价买来的。所以，要在你们的身子上荣耀神。For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.
