1COR Chapter 6

1 Cor 6

Never sue fellow-brethren to public court 

1 Should anyone of you, who have a matter (pragma) towards another, venture to sue him at law before the unrighteous men, and not indeed before the saints?

2 or are you not aware that the holy-saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you not fit with the rules of judgment (criterion) on the least case? 

3 Are you not aware that we will judge (fallen) angels? How much less things relating to the present life?

4 therefore, in case they could indeed have the criteria to judge things relating to the present life, should the church be least-esteemed on this thing? Will you Settle down!

5  by doing otherwise, I will likewise say towards you: there is no wise man, not even among you, who can discern/thoroughly dissect the same matter up between the Brethren?

6 but amid this, a brother sue (another) brother to law court, and before an infidel (unbeliever), oh!

7 therefore, it is already a total failure/defeat indeed for you, for having law suits judgments amid yourselves. why not rather be hurt on the account?why not rather be defrauded on that account? 

8 buy you hurt and defraud brethren even on those things!

Know who you are 

9 or, are you not aware that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Never be deceived: neither prostitute (pornoi), nor idolaters, nor adulterers (paramour), nor effeminate (catamite), nor homosexual (sodomite), 

10 nor thieves, nor covetous, (and even) no drunkard/tipsy person, no insulters, no extortioners, will inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And we WERE someone with those things (before) , but, we have been fully washed, but we have been made holy (consecrated), but we have been justified, even by the SPIRIT of God, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Glorify God, with your body

12 All things to me are right, but not all are of advantage/go along well; all things to me are right (in public view), but I will not be controlled under everything,

13 broma food (religiously allowed and forbidden food) is for the belly, and even the belly is for the food; moreover God has abolished those things, and those things also, in the body/church of the Lord, but, the body of the Lord is not for harlotry.

14 And, God WHO raised the Lord up, shall also fully awaken/resuscitate us up, through HIS power. 

15 Are you not aware that, the parts (limbs) of your body are for Christ, then, should the parts of the body of Christ be taken away, to do things with part of the body of a strumpet/whore? It will never happen!

16 Or, are you not aware that, those who glue/join to a strumpet (whore) are unto one body (with her)? To make His thought known: - for the two shall be unto one flesh. (Gen 2:24)

17 Moreover, the one who glues himself to the Lord is by One SPIRIT.

18 Flee harlotry (adultery, fornication and incest). All sins, which in case are committed unto a man, is outside the body, but those who commit harlotry, commit sin with their own body.

19 Or are you not aware that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, WHOM you have in you from God, and you are not on your own.

20 for, you are really purchased with a price/honor, glorify God in your body, + and by the SPIRIT in you, WHO is of God+.
