1Ipalagay nga kami ng sinoman na mga ministro ni Cristo, at mga katiwala ng mga hiwaga ng Dios. 2Bukod dito'y kinakailangan sa mga katiwala, na ang bawa't isa ay maging tapat. 3Datapuwa't sa ganang akin ay isang bagay na totoong maliit ang ako'y siyasatin ninyo, o ng pagsisiyasat ng tao: oo, ako'y hindi nagsisiyasat sa aking sarili. 4Sapagka't wala akong nalalamang anomang laban sa aking sarili; bagaman hindi dahil dito'y inaaring-ganap ako: sapagka't ang nagsisiyasat sa akin ay ang Panginoon. 5Kaya nga huwag muna kayong magsihatol ng anoman, hanggang sa dumating ang Panginoon, na siya ang maghahayag ng mga bagay na nalilihim sa kadiliman, at ipahahayag naman ang mga haka ng mga puso; at kung magkagayon ang bawa't isa ay magkakaroon ng kapurihan sa Dios. 6Ang mga bagay ngang ito, mga kapatid, ay inianyo ko sa halimbawa sa aking sarili at kay Apolos dahil sa inyo; upang sa amin ay mangatuto kayo na huwag magsihigit sa mga bagay na nangasusulat; upang ang sinoman sa inyo ay huwag magpalalo ang isa laban sa iba. 7Sapagka't sino ang gumawa na ikaw ay matangi? at anong nasa iyo na hindi mo tinanggap? nguni't kung tinanggap mo, ay bakit mo ipinagmamapuri na tulad sa hindi mo tinanggap? 8Kayo'y mga busog na, kayo'y mayayaman na, kayo'y nangaghari nang wala kami: at ibig ko sanang mangaghari kayo, upang kami nama'y mangagharing kasama ninyo. 9Sapagka't iniisip ko, na pinalitaw ng Dios kaming mga apostol na mga kahulihulihan sa lahat, na tulad sa mga itinalaga sa kamatayan: sapagka't kami'y ginawang panoorin ng sanglibutan, at ng mga anghel, at ng mga tao. 10Kami'y mga mangmang dahil kay Cristo, nguni't kayo'y marurunong kay Cristo; kami'y mahihina, nguni't kayo'y malalakas; kayo'y may karangalan, datapuwa't kami ay walang kapurihan. 11Hanggang sa oras na ito'y nangagugutom kami, at nangauuhaw, at mga hubad, at mga tinampal, at wala kaming tiyak na tahanan; 12At kami'y nangagpapagal, na nangagsisigawa ng aming sariling mga kamay: bagama't inuupasala, ay kami'y nangagpapala; bagama't mga pinaguusig, ay nangagtitiis kami; 13Bagama't mga sinisiraangpuri, ay aming pinamamanhikan: kami'y naging tulad ng yagit sa sanglibutan, sukal ng lahat ng mga bagay hanggang ngayon. 14Hindi ko isinusulat ang mga bagay na ito upang kayo'y hiyain, kundi upang paalalahanan kayong tulad sa aking mga minamahal na anak. 15Sapagka't bagaman mangagkaroon kayo ng sampung libong mga guro kay Cristo, ay wala nga kayong maraming mga ama; sapagka't kay Cristo Jesus ipinanganak ko kayo sa pamamagitan ng evangelio. 16Ipinamamanhik ko nga sa inyo, na kayo'y maging mga tagatulad sa akin. 17Dahil dito'y aking sinugo sa inyo si Timoteo, na aking minamahal at tapat na anak sa Panginoon, na siya ang sa inyo'y magpapaalaala ng aking mga daang nanga kay Cristo, gaya ng itinuturo ko saan mang dako sa bawa't iglesia. 18Ang mga iba nga'y nangagpapalalo, na waring hindi na ako mapapariyan sa inyo. 19Nguni't ako'y paririyan agad sa inyo, kung loloobin ng Panginoon; at aking aalamin, hindi ang salita ng nangagpapalalo, kundi ang kapangyarihan. 20Sapagka't ang kaharian ng Dios ay hindi sa salita, kundi sa kapangyarihan. 21Anong ibig ninyo? paririyan baga ako sa inyo na may panghampas, o sa pagibig, at sa espiritu ng kahinahunan?
1So let a man think of us as Christ’s servants, and stewards of God’s mysteries. 2Here, moreover, it is required of stewards, that they be found faithful. 3But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by man’s judgment. Yes, I don’t judge my own self. 4For I know nothing against myself. Yet I am not justified by this, but he who judges me is the Lord. 5Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God. 6Now these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to think beyond the things which are written, that none of you be puffed up against one another. 7For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn’t receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? 8You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you. 9For, I think that God has displayed us, the apostles, last of all, like men sentenced to death. For we are made a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men. 10We are fools for Christ’s sake, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor. 11Even to this present hour we hunger, thirst, are naked, are beaten, and have no certain dwelling place. 12We toil, working with our own hands. When people curse us, we bless. Being persecuted, we endure. 13Being defamed, we entreat. We are made as the filth of the world, the dirt wiped off by all, even until now. 14I don’t write these things to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. 15For though you have ten thousand tutors in Christ, yet not many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the Good News. 16I beg you therefore, be imitators of me. 17Because of this I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every assembly. 18Now some are puffed up, as though I were not coming to you. 19But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing. And I will know, not the word of those who are puffed up, but the power. 20For the Kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. 21What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and a spirit of gentleness?
1Alzo houde ons een ieder mens, als dienaars van Christus, en uitdelers der verborgenheden Gods. 2En voorts wordt in de uitdelers vereist, dat elk getrouw bevonden worde. 3Doch mij is voor het minste, dat ik van ulieden geoordeeld worde, of van een menselijk oordeel; ja, ik oordeel ook mijzelven niet. 4Want ik ben mijzelven van geen ding bewust; doch ik ben daardoor niet gerechtvaardigd; maar Die mij oordeelt, is de Heere. 5Zo dan oordeelt niets voor den tijd, totdat de Heere zal gekomen zijn, Welke ook in het licht zal brengen, hetgeen in de duisternis verborgen is, en openbaren de raadslagen der harten; en alsdan zal een iegelijk lof hebben van God. 6En deze dingen, broeders, heb ik op mijzelven en Apollos bij gelijkenis toegepast, om uwentwil; opdat gij aan ons zoudt leren, niet te gevoelen boven hetgeen geschreven is, dat gij niet, de een om eens anders wil, opgeblazen wordt tegen den ander. 7Want wie onderscheidt u? En wat hebt gij, dat gij niet hebt ontvangen? En zo gij het ook ontvangen hebt, wat roemt gij, alsof gij het niet ontvangen hadt? 8Alrede zijt gij verzadigd, alrede zijt gij rijk geworden, zonder ons hebt gij geheerst; en och, of gij heerstet, opdat ook wij met u heersen mochten! 9Want ik acht, dat God ons, die de laatste apostelen zijn, ten toon heeft gesteld als tot den dood verwezen; want wij zijn een schouwspel geworden der wereld, en den engelen, en den mensen. 10Wij zijn dwazen om Christus' wil, maar gij zijt wijzen in Christus; wij zijn zwakken, maar gij sterken; gij zijt heerlijken, maar wij verachten. 11Tot op deze tegenwoordige ure lijden wij honger, en lijden wij dorst, en zijn naakt, en worden met vuisten geslagen, en hebben geen vaste woonplaats; 12En arbeiden, werkende met onze eigen handen; wij worden gescholden, en wij zegenen; wij worden vervolgd, en wij verdragen; 13Wij worden gelasterd, en wij bidden; wij zijn geworden als uitvaagsels der wereld en aller afschrapsel tot nu toe. 14Ik schrijf deze dingen niet om u te beschamen, maar als mijn lieve kinderen vermaan ik u. 15Want al hadt gij tien duizend leermeesters in Christus, zo hebt gij toch niet vele vaders; want in Christus Jezus heb ik u door het Evangelie geteeld. 16Zo vermaan ik u dan: zijt mijn navolgers. 17Daarom heb ik Timotheus tot u gezonden, die mijn lieve en getrouwe zoon is in den Heere, welke u zal indachtig maken mijn wegen, die in Christus zijn, gelijkerwijs ik alom in alle Gemeenten leer. 18Doch sommigen zijn opgeblazen, alsof ik tot ulieden niet komen zou. 19Maar ik zal haast tot u komen, zo de Heere wil, en ik zal dan verstaan, niet de woorden dergenen, die opgeblazen zijn, maar de kracht. 20Want het Koninkrijk Gods is niet gelegen in woorden, maar in kracht. 21Wat wilt gij? Zal ik met de roede tot u komen, of in liefde en in den geest der zachtmoedigheid?
