1st Corinthians 哥林多前书_1Co_06

1If any of you has a dispute with another, dare he take it before the ungodly for judgment¹ instead of before the saints?

2Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases?

3Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!

4Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, appoint as judges even men of little account in the church!

5I say this to shame you. Is it possible that there is nobody among you wise enough to judge a dispute between believers?

6But instead, one brother goes to law against another--and this in front of unbelievers!

7The very fact that you have lawsuits² among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

8Instead, you yourselves cheat and do wrong, and you do this to your brothers.

9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral³ nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders⁴

10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.

11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified⁵ in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.

12"Everything is permissible⁶ for me"--but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"--but I will not be mastered by anything.

13"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"--but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality⁷, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

14By his power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also.

15Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never!

16Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, "The two will become one flesh."

17But he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.

18Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.

19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

20you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body.
