2Here, furthermore, it is sought in stewards, that, faithful, one be found.

Matthew 25:21, Matthew 25:21, Luke 12:42, Luke 12:42, Luke 16:10

3With me, however, it counteth for the very smallest thing, that, by you, I should be examined, or by a human day. Nay! I am not even examining myself,

1 Corinthians 2:15, John 7:24, 1 Corinthians 2:15, John 7:24, 1 Corinthians 3:13

4For, of nothing, to myself, am I conscious: nevertheless, not hereby, am I declared righteous, but, he that doth examine me, is the Lord.

Psalms 143:2, Psalms 143:2, 1 John 3:20, 1 John 3:21, 1 John 3:20

5So then, not before the fitting time, be judging anything,—until the Lord shall come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and, then, the praise shall come to each one, from God.

James 5:7, James 5:7, 2 Corinthians 5:10, 2 Corinthians 5:10, 1 Corinthians 3:13

6But, these things, brethren, have I transferred unto myself and Apollos, for your sakes, that, in us, ye might learn [the lesson] —Not beyond the things that are written…! that ye do not puff yourselves up, individually, for this one against that.

2 Corinthians 11:4, 2 Corinthians 11:4, 2 Corinthians 12:19, 2 Corinthians 12:6, 2 Corinthians 12:19

7For who maketh thee to differ? and what hast thou which thou didst not receive? But, if thou didst even receive it, why dost thou boast, as though thou hadst not received it?

John 3:27, John 3:27, 1 Peter 4:10, 1 Peter 4:10, James 1:17

8Already, ye have become full, already, ye are become rich,—apart from us, ye are become kings! And I would indeed ye had become kings, that, we also, with you, might have together become kings!

Proverbs 13:7, 1 Corinthians 1:5, Luke 1:51, Luke 1:53, 1 Thessalonians 2:19

9For I think that, God, hath set forth, us the apostles, to be last of all, as men devoted to death,—in that, a spectacle, have we been made, unto the world,—both unto messengers and unto men.

Hebrews 10:33, Hebrews 10:33, Romans 8:36, 2 Corinthians 4:8, 2 Corinthians 4:12

10We, are foolish for Christ’s sake, but, ye, prudent in Christ; we are weak, but, ye, mighty; ye, all-glorious, but, we, dishonoured.

1 Corinthians 2:3, 1 Corinthians 2:3, Acts 26:24, Acts 26:24, Acts 17:18

11Until the present hour, we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and are wanderers,

Romans 8:35, Romans 8:35, Philippians 4:12, 2 Corinthians 11:23, 2 Corinthians 11:27

12And toil, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless, being persecuted, we hold on,

1 Peter 3:9, 1 Peter 3:9, Matthew 5:11, Matthew 5:11, 1 Peter 4:12

13Being defamed, we beseech: as the sweepings of the world have we become, the offscouring of all—until even now.

Lamentations 3:45, Lamentations 3:45, Acts 22:22, Acts 22:22

14Not, to shame you, write I these things; but, as my beloved children, I admonish you.

1 Thessalonians 2:11, 1 Thessalonians 2:11, 3 John 1:4, 1 Corinthians 9:15, 1 Corinthians 4:15

15For, though myriads of tutors ye should have in Christ, yet not many fathers; for, in Christ Jesus, through means of the joyful message, I, begat you.

Galatians 4:19, Galatians 4:19, 1 Corinthians 3:10, 1 Corinthians 3:10, 1 Corinthians 9:23

16I beseech you, therefore,—become imitators of me.

2 Thessalonians 3:9, 2 Thessalonians 3:9, Philippians 3:17, 1 Corinthians 11:1, Philippians 3:17

17For this cause, sent I unto you, Timothy,—who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who shall put, you, in mind of my ways which are in Christ [Jesus], even as, everywhere, in every assembly, I teach.

1 Corinthians 16:10, 1 Timothy 1:2, 1 Corinthians 16:10, 1 Timothy 1:2, 1 Corinthians 7:17

18But, as though I were not coming unto you, some are puffed up!

1 Corinthians 5:2, 1 Corinthians 4:6, 1 Corinthians 4:8, 1 Corinthians 5:2, 1 Corinthians 4:6

19Howbeit, I will come quickly unto you,—if, the Lord, please,—and will get to know—not the speech of them who are puffed up, but, the power;

2 Corinthians 13:1, 2 Corinthians 13:4, 2 Corinthians 13:1, 2 Corinthians 13:4, Acts 18:21

20For, not in speech, is the kingdom of God, but, in power.

1 Corinthians 2:4, 1 Corinthians 2:4, 1 Thessalonians 1:5, 1 Thessalonians 1:5, 2 Corinthians 10:4

21What will ye? that, with a rod, I should come unto you? or, with love, and a spirit of meekness?

2 Corinthians 13:2, 2 Corinthians 13:2, 2 Corinthians 12:20, 2 Corinthians 12:21, 2 Corinthians 13:10
