1 Corinthians 4:7-13
7For whoG5101 regardsG1252 you as superiorG1252? 1WhatG5101 do you haveG2192 that you did not receiveG2983? And ifG1487 you did receiveG2983 it, whyG5101 do you boastG2744 as ifG5613 you had not receivedG2983 it?
8You are 2alreadyG2235 filledG2880, you have alreadyG2235 becomeG4147 richG4147, you have becomeG936 kingsG936 withoutG5565 us; and indeedG1065, I wishG3785 that you had becomeG936 kingsG936 soG2443 that we alsoG2532 might reignG4821 with you. 9For, I thinkG1380, GodG2316 has exhibitedG584 us apostlesG652 lastG2078 of allG2078, as menG1935 3condemnedG1935 to deathG1935; becauseG3754 we 4have becomeG1096 a spectacleG2302 to the worldG2889, 5bothG2532 to angelsG32 and to menG444. 10We are 6foolsG3474 for Christ’sG5547 sakeG1223, but 7you are prudentG5429 in ChristG5547; 8we are weakG772, but you are strongG2478; you are distinguishedG1741, but we are withoutG820 honorG820. 11To thisG3588 presentG737 hourG5610 we are bothG2532 9hungryG3983 and thirstyG1372, and are poorlyG1130 clothedG1130, and are roughlyG2852 treatedG2852, and are homelessG790; 12and we toilG2872, 10workingG2038 with our ownG2398 handsG5495; when we are 11reviledG3058, we blessG2127; when we are 12persecutedG1377, we endureG430; 13when we are slanderedG1426, we try to 13conciliateG3870; we have 14becomeG1096 as the scumG4027 of the worldG2889, the dregsG4067 of allG3956 thingsG3956, even untilG2193 nowG737.
