1 Corinthians 6

Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

1 Ref Dare any one of you, having a matter with the other, go to be judged before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

2 Ref have ye not known that the saints shall judge the world? and if by you the world is judged, are ye unworthy of the smaller judgments?

3 Ref have ye not known that we shall judge messengers? why not then the things of life?

4 Ref of the things of life, indeed, then, if ye may have judgment, those despised in the assembly -- these cause ye to sit;

5 Ref unto your shame I speak: so there is not among you one wise man, not even one, who shall be able to discern in the midst of his brethren!

6 Ref but brother with brother doth go to be judged, and this before unbelievers!

1 Ref Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

2 Ref Don't you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3 Ref Don't you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

4 Ref If then, you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?

5 Ref I say this to move you to shame. Isn't there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?

6 Ref But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!
