1 WOULD any of you, having a lawsuit against his brother, dare to go to trial before the wicked rather than before the saints? 2 Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is to be judged by you, are you not worthy to judge small affairs? 3 Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more then should we judge those who belong to this world? 4 You have worldly affairs to be settled, and yet you have put men of bad reputation in the church on the judgment seat. 5 I say this to you to make you feel ashamed. Is it so, that there is not a single wise man among you, who could settle a dispute between a brother and his brother? 6 But brother goes to court against brother, and at that before unbelievers. 7 Now therefore you are already at fault because you go to court one with another. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather let yourselves be defrauded? 1 Corinthians 6:1-7, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
