1CO-1:1 Paul, called [to be] an apostle of Jesus Christ through

the will of God, and Sosthenes [our] brother,

1CO-1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that

are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called [to be] saints, with all

that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord,

both theirs and ours:

1CO-1:3 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and

[from] the Lord Jesus Christ.

1CO-1:4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of

God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

1CO-1:5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all

utterance, and [in] all knowledge;

1CO-1:6 Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:

1CO-1:7 So that ye come behind in no gift; waiting for the

coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:

1CO-1:8 Who shall also confirm you unto the end, [that ye may

be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

1CO-1:9 God [is] faithful, by whom ye were called unto the

fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.

1CO-1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord

Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there

be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined

together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

1CO-1:11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren,

by them [which are of the house] of Chloe, that there are

contentions among you.

1CO-1:12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of

Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.

1CO-1:13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were

ye baptized in the name of Paul?

1CO-1:14 I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus

and Gaius;

1CO-1:15 Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own

name.

1CO-1:16 And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides,

I know not whether I baptized any other.

1CO-1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the

gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ

should be made of none effect.

1CO-1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish

foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

1CO-1:19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the

wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

1CO-1:20 Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is]

the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom

of this world?

1CO-1:21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom

knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to

save them that believe.

1CO-1:22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after

wisdom:

1CO-1:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a

stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

1CO-1:24 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks,

Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

1CO-1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and

the weakness of God is stronger than men.

1CO-1:26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many

wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are

called]:

1CO-1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to

confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the

world to confound the things which are mighty;

1CO-1:28 And base things of the world, and things which are

despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to

bring to nought things that are:

1CO-1:29 That no flesh should glory in his presence.

1CO-1:30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made

unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and

redemption:

1CO-1:31 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let

him glory in the Lord.

1CO-2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with

excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the

testimony of God.

1CO-2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save

Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

1CO-2:3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much

trembling.

1CO-2:4 And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing

words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of

power:

1CO-2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men,

but in the power of God.

1CO-2:6 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet

not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world,

that come to nought:

1CO-2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the

hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our

glory:

1CO-2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had

they known [it], they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

1CO-2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard,

neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God

hath prepared for them that love him.

1CO-2:10 But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for

the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

1CO-2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the

spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth

no man, but the Spirit of God.

1CO-2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but

the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that

are freely given to us of God.

1CO-2:13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which

man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth;

comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

1CO-2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the

Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he

know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

1CO-2:15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he

himself is judged of no man.

1CO-2:16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may

instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

1CO-3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto

spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ.

1CO-3:2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for

hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye

able.

1CO-3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you

envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk

as men?

1CO-3:4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I [am]

of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

1CO-3:5 Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by

whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

1CO-3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the

increase.

1CO-3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither

he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

1CO-3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and

every man shall receive his own reward according to his own

labour.

1CO-3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's

husbandry, [ye are] God's building.

1CO-3:10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me,

as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another

buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth

thereupon.

1CO-3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid,

which is Jesus Christ.

1CO-3:12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver,

precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

1CO-3:13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day

shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the

fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

1CO-3:14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon,

he shall receive a reward.

1CO-3:15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss:

but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

1CO-3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that]

the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

1CO-3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God

destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

1CO-3:18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you

seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he

may be wise.

1CO-3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.

1CO-3:20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise,

that they are vain.

1CO-3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are

yours;

1CO-3:22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or

life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are

yours;

1CO-3:23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ [is] God's.

1CO-4:1 Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of

Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

1CO-4:2 Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found

faithful.

1CO-4:3 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.

1CO-4:4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby

justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

1CO-4:5 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.

1CO-4:6 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.

1CO-4:7 For who maketh thee to differ [from another]? and what

hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive

[it], why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received [it]?

1CO-4:8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as

kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also

might reign with you.

1CO-4:9 For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last,

as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto

the world, and to angels, and to men.

1CO-4:10 We [are] fools for Christ's sake, but ye [are] wise in

Christ; we [are] weak, but ye [are] strong; ye [are] honourable,

but we [are] despised.

1CO-4:11 Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst,

and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain

dwellingplace;

1CO-4:12 And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled,

we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

1CO-4:13 Being defamed, we entreat: we are made as the filth of

the world, [and are] the offscouring of all things unto this day.

1CO-4:14 I write not these things to shame you, but as my

beloved sons I warn [you].

1CO-4:15 For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ,

yet [have ye] not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have

begotten you through the gospel.

1CO-4:16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me.

1CO-4:17 For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is

my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you

into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every

where in every church.

1CO-4:18 Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to

you.

1CO-4:19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and

will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the

power.

1CO-4:20 For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

1CO-4:21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in

love, and [in] the spirit of meekness?

1CO-5:1 It is reported commonly [that there is] fornication

among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among

the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.

1CO-5:2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that

he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.

1CO-5:3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit,

have judged already, as though I were present, [concerning] him

that hath so done this deed,

1CO-5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are

gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord

Jesus Christ,

1CO-5:5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of

the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord

Jesus.

1CO-5:6 Your glorying [is] not good. Know ye not that a little

leaven leaveneth the whole lump?

1CO-5:7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new

lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is

sacrificed for us:

1CO-5:8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven,

neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the

unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.

1CO-5:9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with

fornicators:

1CO-5:10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world,

or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for

then must ye needs go out of the world.

1CO-5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if

any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous,

or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner;

with such an one no not to eat.

1CO-5:12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are

without? do not ye judge them that are within?

1CO-5:13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put

away from among yourselves that wicked person.

1CO-6:1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to

law before the unjust, and not before the saints?

1CO-6:2 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?

1CO-6:3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more

things that pertain to this life?

1CO-6:4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this

life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

1CO-6:5 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?

1CO-6:6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before

the unbelievers.

1CO-6:7 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?

1CO-6:8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that [your] brethren.

1CO-6:9 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,

1CO-6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers,

nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1CO-6:11 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.

1CO-6:12 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.

1CO-6:13 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.

1CO-6:14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also

raise up us by his own power.

1CO-6:15 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.

1CO-6:16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot

is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

1CO-6:17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

1CO-6:18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without

the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his

own body.

1CO-6:19 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?

1CO-6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God

in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

1CO-7:1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: [It

is] good for a man not to touch a woman.

1CO-7:2 Nevertheless, [to avoid] fornication, let every man have

his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.

1CO-7:3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence:

and likewise also the wife unto the husband.

1CO-7:4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband:

and likewise also the husband hath not power of his own body,

but the wife.

1CO-7:5 Defraud ye not one the other, except [it be] with

consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and

prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for

your incontinency.

1CO-7:6 But I speak this by permission, [and] not of commandment.

1CO-7:7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But

every man hath his proper gift of God, one after this manner,

and another after that.

1CO-7:8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good

for them if they abide even as I.

1CO-7:9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is

better to marry than to burn.

1CO-7:10 And unto the married I command, [yet] not I, but the

Lord, Let not the wife depart from [her] husband:

1CO-7:11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be

reconciled to [her] husband: and let not the husband put away

[his] wife.

1CO-7:12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother

hath a wife that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with

him, let him not put her away.

1CO-7:13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not,

and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.

1CO-7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife,

and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were

your children unclean; but now are they holy.

1CO-7:15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A

brother or a sister is not under bondage in such [cases]: but

God hath called us to peace.

1CO-7:16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save

[thy] husband? or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt

save [thy] wife?

1CO-7:17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord

hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all

churches.

1CO-7:18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become

uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be

circumcised.

1CO-7:19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing,

but the keeping of the commandments of God.

1CO-7:20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was

called.

1CO-7:21 Art thou called [being] a servant? care not for it: but

if thou mayest be made free, use [it] rather.

1CO-7:22 For he that is called in the Lord, [being] a servant,

is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, [being]

free, is Christ's servant.

1CO-7:23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of

men.

1CO-7:24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein

abide with God.

1CO-7:25 Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the

Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of

the Lord to be faithful.

1CO-7:26 I suppose therefore that this is good for the present

distress, [I say], that [it is] good for a man so to be.

1CO-7:27 Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art

thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.

1CO-7:28 But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a

virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have

trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.

1CO-7:29 But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it

remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had

none;

1CO-7:30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they

that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as

though they possessed not;

1CO-7:31 And they that use this world, as not abusing [it]: for

the fashion of this world passeth away.

1CO-7:32 But I would have you without carefulness. He that is

unmarried careth for the things that belong to the Lord, how he

may please the Lord:

1CO-7:33 But he that is married careth for the things that are

of the world, how he may please [his] wife.

1CO-7:34 There is difference [also] between a wife and a virgin.

The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she

may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married

careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her]

husband.

1CO-7:35 And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may

cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that ye

may attend upon the Lord without distraction.

1CO-7:36 But if any man think that he behaveth himself uncomely

toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of [her] age, and need

so require, let him do what he will, he sinneth not: let them

marry.

1CO-7:37 Nevertheless he that standeth stedfast in his heart,

having no necessity, but hath power over his own will, and hath

so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, doeth well.

1CO-7:38 So then he that giveth [her] in marriage doeth well;

but he that giveth [her] not in marriage doeth better.

1CO-7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband

liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be

married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

1CO-7:40 But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment:

and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.

1CO-8:1 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that

we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity

edifieth.

1CO-8:2 And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he

knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.

1CO-8:3 But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

1CO-8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that

are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol [is]

nothing in the world, and that [there is] none other God but one.

1CO-8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in

heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)

1CO-8:6 But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom

[are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by

whom [are] all things, and we by him.

1CO-8:7 Howbeit [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for

some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat [it] as a

thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is

defiled.

1CO-8:8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we

eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.

1CO-8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours

become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.

1CO-8:10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at

meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which

is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to

idols;

1CO-8:11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish,

for whom Christ died?

1CO-8:12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound

their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

1CO-8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will

eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to

offend.

1CO-9:1 Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen

Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?

1CO-9:2 If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am

to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.

1CO-9:3 Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,

1CO-9:4 Have we not power to eat and to drink?

1CO-9:5 Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as

well as other apostles, and [as] the brethren of the Lord, and

Cephas?

1CO-9:6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear

working?

1CO-9:7 Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who

planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who

feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?

1CO-9:8 Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the

same also?

1CO-9:9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not

muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God

take care for oxen?

1CO-9:10 Or saith he [it] altogether for our sakes? For our

sakes, no doubt, [this] is written: that he that ploweth should

plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be

partaker of his hope.

1CO-9:11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, [is it] a

great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?

1CO-9:12 If others be partakers of [this] power over you, [are]

not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but

suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

1CO-9:13 Do ye not know that they which minister about holy

things live [of the things] of the temple? and they which wait

at the altar are partakers with the altar?

1CO-9:14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach

the gospel should live of the gospel.

1CO-9:15 But I have used none of these things: neither have I

written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for [it

were] better for me to die, than that any man should make my

glorying void.

1CO-9:16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory

of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I

preach not the gospel!

1CO-9:17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but

if against my will, a dispensation [of the gospel] is committed

unto me.

1CO-9:18 What is my reward then? [Verily] that, when I preach

the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that

I abuse not my power in the gospel.

1CO-9:19 For though I be free from all [men], yet have I made

myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.

1CO-9:20 And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain

the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that

I might gain them that are under the law;

1CO-9:21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being

not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I

might gain them that are without law.

1CO-9:22 To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the

weak: I am made all things to all [men], that I might by all

means save some.

1CO-9:23 And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be

partaker thereof with [you].

1CO-9:24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but

one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.

1CO-9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is

temperate in all things. Now they [do it] to obtain a

corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.

1CO-9:26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not

as one that beateth the air:

1CO-9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring [it] into

subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to

others, I myself should be a castaway.

1CO-10:1 Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be

ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all

passed through the sea;

1CO-10:2 And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in

the sea;

1CO-10:3 And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

1CO-10:4 And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they

drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock

was Christ.

1CO-10:5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for

they were overthrown in the wilderness.

1CO-10:6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we

should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.

1CO-10:7 Neither be ye idolaters, as [were] some of them; as it

is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to

play.

1CO-10:8 Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them

committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.

1CO-10:9 Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also

tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.

1CO-10:10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and

were destroyed of the destroyer.

1CO-10:11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples:

and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of

the world are come.

1CO-10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed

lest he fall.

1CO-10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is

common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to

be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation

also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it].

1CO-10:14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

1CO-10:15 I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.

1CO-10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the

communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is

it not the communion of the body of Christ?

1CO-10:17 For we [being] many are one bread, [and] one body: for

we are all partakers of that one bread.

1CO-10:18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat

of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?

1CO-10:19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that

which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?

1CO-10:20 But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles

sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would

not that ye should have fellowship with devils.

1CO-10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of

devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the

table of devils.

1CO-10:22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger

than he?

1CO-10:23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not

expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify

not.

1CO-10:24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's

[wealth].

1CO-10:25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking

no question for conscience sake:

1CO-10:26 For the earth [is] the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

1CO-10:27 If any of them that believe not bid you [to a feast],

and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat,

asking no question for conscience sake.

1CO-10:28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in

sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that showed it, and

for conscience sake: for the earth [is] the Lord's, and the

fulness thereof:

1CO-10:29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other:

for why is my liberty judged of another [man's] conscience?

1CO-10:30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken

of for that for which I give thanks?

1CO-10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye

do, do all to the glory of God.

1CO-10:32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the

Gentiles, nor to the church of God:

1CO-10:33 Even as I please all [men] in all [things], not

seeking mine own profit, but the [profit] of many, that they may

be saved.

1CO-11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also [am] of Christ.

1CO-11:2 Now I praise you, brethren, that ye remember me in all

things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered [them] to you.

1CO-11:3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man

is Christ; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head

of Christ [is] God.

1CO-11:4 Every man praying or prophesying, having [his] head

covered, dishonoureth his head.

1CO-11:5 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with [her]

head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one

as if she were shaven.

1CO-11:6 For if the woman be not covered, let her also be shorn:

but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her

be covered.

1CO-11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover [his] head,

forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is

the glory of the man.

1CO-11:8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the

man.

1CO-11:9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the

woman for the man.

1CO-11:10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on [her]

head because of the angels.

1CO-11:11 Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman,

neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.

1CO-11:12 For as the woman [is] of the man, even so [is] the man

also by the woman; but all things of God.

1CO-11:13 Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray

unto God uncovered?

1CO-11:14 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man

have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

1CO-11:15 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her:

for [her] hair is given her for a covering.

1CO-11:16 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such

custom, neither the churches of God.

1CO-11:17 Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you]

not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

1CO-11:18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church,

I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe

it.

1CO-11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they

which are approved may be made manifest among you.

1CO-11:20 When ye come together therefore into one place, [this]

is not to eat the Lord's supper.

1CO-11:21 For in eating every one taketh before [other] his own

supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

1CO-11:22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or

despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What

shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise [you]

not.

1CO-11:23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I

delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the [same] night in

which he was betrayed took bread:

1CO-11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake [it], and said,

Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in

remembrance of me.

1CO-11:25 After the same manner also [he took] the cup, when he

had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood:

this do ye, as oft as ye drink [it], in remembrance of me.

1CO-11:26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup,

ye do show the Lord's death till he come.

1CO-11:27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink

[this] cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body

and blood of the Lord.

1CO-11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of

[that] bread, and drink of [that] cup.

1CO-11:29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and

drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

1CO-11:30 For this cause many [are] weak and sickly among you,

and many sleep.

1CO-11:31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be

judged.

1CO-11:32 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord,

that we should not be condemned with the world.

1CO-11:33 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat,

tarry one for another.

1CO-11:34 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye

come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in

order when I come.

1CO-12:1 Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not

have you ignorant.

1CO-12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these

dumb idols, even as ye were led.

1CO-12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man

speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that]

no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

1CO-12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

1CO-12:5 And there are differences of administrations, but the

same Lord.

1CO-12:6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the

same God which worketh all in all.

1CO-12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every

man to profit withal.

1CO-12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom;

to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

1CO-12:9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the

gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

1CO-12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another

prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers]

kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

1CO-12:11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit,

dividing to every man severally as he will.

1CO-12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all

the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also

[is] Christ.

1CO-12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body,

whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free;

and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

1CO-12:14 For the body is not one member, but many.

1CO-12:15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am

not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

1CO-12:16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I

am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

1CO-12:17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the

hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?

1CO-12:18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in

the body, as it hath pleased him.

1CO-12:19 And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?

1CO-12:20 But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.

1CO-12:21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need

of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

1CO-12:22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem

to be more feeble, are necessary:

1CO-12:23 And those [members] of the body, which we think to be

less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and

our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness.

1CO-12:24 For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath

tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to

that [part] which lacked:

1CO-12:25 That there should be no schism in the body; but [that]

the members should have the same care one for another.

1CO-12:26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer

with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with

it.

1CO-12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in

particular.

1CO-12:28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles,

secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles,

then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of

tongues.

1CO-12:29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all

teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?

1CO-12:30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with

tongues? do all interpret?

1CO-12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I

unto you a more excellent way.

1CO-13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels,

and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a

tinkling cymbal.

1CO-13:2 And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and

understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have

all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not

charity, I am nothing.

1CO-13:3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor],

and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it

profiteth me nothing.

1CO-13:4 Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth

not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

1CO-13:5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own,

is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

1CO-13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

1CO-13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all

things, endureth all things.

1CO-13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether [there be]

prophecies, they shall fail; whether [there be] tongues, they

shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away.

1CO-13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

1CO-13:10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that

which is in part shall be done away.

1CO-13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood

as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put

away childish things.

1CO-13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face

to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also

I am known.

1CO-13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but

the greatest of these [is] charity.

1CO-14:1 Follow after charity, and desire spiritual [gifts], but

rather that ye may prophesy.

1CO-14:2 For he that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue speaketh

not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth [him];

howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

1CO-14:3 But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men [to]

edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

1CO-14:4 He that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue edifieth

himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

1CO-14:5 I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that

ye prophesied: for greater [is] he that prophesieth than he that

speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may

receive edifying.

1CO-14:6 Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues,

what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by

revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?

1CO-14:7 And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe

or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall

it be known what is piped or harped?

1CO-14:8 For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall

prepare himself to the battle?

1CO-14:9 So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words

easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for

ye shall speak into the air.

1CO-14:10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the

world, and none of them [is] without signification.

1CO-14:11 Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I

shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that

speaketh [shall be] a barbarian unto me.

1CO-14:12 Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual

[gifts], seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.

1CO-14:13 Wherefore let him that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue

pray that he may interpret.

1CO-14:14 For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit

prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

1CO-14:15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I

will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the

spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

1CO-14:16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall

he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy

giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?

1CO-14:17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is

not edified.

1CO-14:18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:

1CO-14:19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with

my understanding, that [by my voice] I might teach others also,

than ten thousand words in an [unknown] tongue.

1CO-14:20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in

malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

1CO-14:21 In the law it is written, With [men of] other tongues

and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all

that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.

1CO-14:22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that

believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying [serveth]

not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.

1CO-14:23 If therefore the whole church be come together into

one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in [those

that are] unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye

are mad?

1CO-14:24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that

believeth not, or [one] unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is

judged of all:

1CO-14:25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest;

and so falling down on [his] face he will worship God, and

report that God is in you of a truth.

1CO-14:26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every

one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a

revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto

edifying.

1CO-14:27 If any man speak in an [unknown] tongue, [let it be]

by two, or at the most [by] three, and [that] by course; and let

one interpret.

1CO-14:28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence

in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.

1CO-14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other

judge.

1CO-14:30 If [any thing] be revealed to another that sitteth by,

let the first hold his peace.

1CO-14:31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn,

and all may be comforted.

1CO-14:32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the

prophets.

1CO-14:33 For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace,

as in all churches of the saints.

1CO-14:34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is

not permitted unto them to speak; but [they are commanded] to be

under obedience, as also saith the law.

1CO-14:35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their

husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the

church.

1CO-14:36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it

unto you only?

1CO-14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual,

let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are

the commandments of the Lord.

1CO-14:38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.

1CO-14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not

to speak with tongues.

1CO-14:40 Let all things be done decently and in order.

1CO-15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which

I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye

stand;

1CO-15:2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I

preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

1CO-15:3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also

received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the

scriptures;

1CO-15:4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the

third day according to the scriptures:

1CO-15:5 And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve:

1CO-15:6 After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren

at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but

some are fallen asleep.

1CO-15:7 After that, he was seen of James; then of all the

apostles.

1CO-15:8 And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born

out of due time.

1CO-15:9 For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to

be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

1CO-15:10 But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace

which [was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured

more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God

which was with me.

1CO-15:11 Therefore whether [it were] I or they, so we preach,

and so ye believed.

1CO-15:12 Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead,

how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead?

1CO-15:13 But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is

Christ not risen:

1CO-15:14 And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching

vain, and your faith [is] also vain.

1CO-15:15 Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because

we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he

raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not.

1CO-15:16 For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised:

1CO-15:17 And if Christ be not raised, your faith [is] vain; ye

are yet in your sins.

1CO-15:18 Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are

perished.

1CO-15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of

all men most miserable.

1CO-15:20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, [and] become

the firstfruits of them that slept.

1CO-15:21 For since by man [came] death, by man [came] also the

resurrection of the dead.

1CO-15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be

made alive.

1CO-15:23 But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits;

afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.

1CO-15:24 Then [cometh] the end, when he shall have delivered up

the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down

all rule and all authority and power.

1CO-15:25 For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under

his feet.

1CO-15:26 The last enemy [that] shall be destroyed [is] death.

1CO-15:27 For he hath put all things under his feet. But when he

saith all things are put under [him, it is] manifest that he is

excepted, which did put all things under him.

1CO-15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then

shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all

things under him, that God may be all in all.

1CO-15:29 Else what shall they do which are baptized for the

dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized

for the dead?

1CO-15:30 And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?

1CO-15:31 I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ

Jesus our Lord, I die daily.

1CO-15:32 If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts

at Ephesus, what advantageth it me, if the dead rise not? let us

eat and drink; for to morrow we die.

1CO-15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good

manners.

1CO-15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not

the knowledge of God: I speak [this] to your shame.

1CO-15:35 But some [man] will say, How are the dead raised up?

and with what body do they come?

1CO-15:36 [Thou] fool, that which thou sowest is not quickened,

except it die:

1CO-15:37 And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body

that shall be, but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of

some other [grain]:

1CO-15:38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and

to every seed his own body.

1CO-15:39 All flesh [is] not the same flesh: but [there is] one

[kind of] flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of

fishes, [and] another of birds.

1CO-15:40 [There are] also celestial bodies, and bodies

terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial [is] one, and the

[glory] of the terrestrial [is] another.

1CO-15:41 [There is] one glory of the sun, and another glory of

the moon, and another glory of the stars: for [one] star

differeth from [another] star in glory.

1CO-15:42 So also [is] the resurrection of the dead. It is sown

in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:

1CO-15:43 It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is

sown in weakness; it is raised in power:

1CO-15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual

body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

1CO-15:45 And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a

living soul; the last Adam [was made] a quickening spirit.

1CO-15:46 Howbeit that [was] not first which is spiritual, but

that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.

1CO-15:47 The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second

man [is] the Lord from heaven.

1CO-15:48 As [is] the earthy, such [are] they also that are

earthy: and as [is] the heavenly, such [are] they also that are

heavenly.

1CO-15:49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall

also bear the image of the heavenly.

1CO-15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot

inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit

incorruption.

1CO-15:51 Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep,

but we shall all be changed,

1CO-15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last

trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised

incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1CO-15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and

this mortal [must] put on immortality.

1CO-15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on

incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality,

then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death

is swallowed up in victory.

1CO-15:55 O death, where [is] thy sting? O grave, where [is] thy

victory?

1CO-15:56 The sting of death [is] sin; and the strength of sin

[is] the law.

1CO-15:57 But thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory

through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1CO-15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast,

unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch

as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

1CO-16:1 Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have

given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.

1CO-16:2 Upon the first [day] of the week let every one of you

lay by him in store, as [God] hath prospered him, that there be

no gatherings when I come.

1CO-16:3 And when I come, whomsoever ye shall approve by [your]

letters, them will I send to bring your liberality unto

Jerusalem.

1CO-16:4 And if it be meet that I go also, they shall go with me.

1CO-16:5 Now I will come unto you, when I shall pass through

Macedonia: for I do pass through Macedonia.

1CO-16:6 And it may be that I will abide, yea, and winter with

you, that ye may bring me on my journey whithersoever I go.

1CO-16:7 For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to

tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.

1CO-16:8 But I will tarry at Ephesus until Pentecost.

1CO-16:9 For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and

[there are] many adversaries.

1CO-16:10 Now if Timotheus come, see that he may be with you

without fear: for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also

[do].

1CO-16:11 Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct him

forth in peace, that he may come unto me: for I look for him

with the brethren.

1CO-16:12 As touching [our] brother Apollos, I greatly desired

him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at

all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have

convenient time.

1CO-16:13 Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men,

be strong.

1CO-16:14 Let all your things be done with charity.

1CO-16:15 I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of

Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and [that] they

have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,)

1CO-16:16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one

that helpeth with [us], and laboureth.

1CO-16:17 I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus

and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have

supplied.

1CO-16:18 For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore

acknowledge ye them that are such.

1CO-16:19 The churches of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla

salute you much in the Lord, with the church that is in their

house.

1CO-16:20 All the brethren greet you. Greet ye one another with

an holy kiss.

1CO-16:21 The salutation of [me] Paul with mine own hand.

1CO-16:22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be

Anathema Maranatha.

1CO-16:23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

1CO-16:24 My love [be] with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.
