Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.
1人应当以我们为基督的执事，为 神奥秘事的管家。
2Now it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.
2所求于管家的，是要他有忠心。
3I care very little, however, if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.
3我被你们论断，或被别人论断，我都以为极小的事；连我自己也不论断自己。
4My conscience is clear, but that does not vindicate me. It is the Lord who judges me.
4我虽不觉得自己有错，却也不能因此得以称义；但判断我的乃是主。
5Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of men’s hearts. At that time each will receive his praise from God.
5所以，时候未到，什么都不要论断，只等主来，他要照出暗中的隐情，显明人心的意念。那时，各人要从 神那里得着称赞。
6Brothers, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written. Then you will not take pride in one man over another.
6弟兄们，我为你们的缘故，拿这些事转比自己和 亚波罗 ，叫你们效法我们不可过于 圣经 所记，免得你们自高自大，贵重这个，轻看那个。
7For who makes you so superior? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not?
7使你与人不同的是谁呢？你有什么不是领受的呢？若是领受的，为何自夸，仿佛不是领受的呢？
8Already you have all you want. Already you have become rich. Without us, you have become kings. How I wish you really were kings, so that we might be kings with you!
8你们已经饱足了！已经丰富了！不用我们，自己就作王了！我愿意你们果真作王，叫我们也得与你们一同作王。
9For it seems to me that God has displayed us apostles at the end of the procession, like prisoners appointed for death. We have become a spectacle to the whole world, to angels as well as to men.
9我想 神把我们使徒明明列在末后，好像定死罪的囚犯；因为我们成了一台戏，给世人和天使观看。
10We are fools for Christ, but you are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are honored, but we are dishonored.
10我们为基督的缘故算是愚拙的，你们在基督里倒是聪明的；我们软弱，你们倒强壮；你们有荣耀，我们倒被藐视。
11To this very hour we are hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clothed, we are brutally treated, we are homeless.
11直到如今，我们还是又饥又渴，又赤身露体，又挨打，又没有一定的住处，
12We work hard with our own hands. When we are vilified, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it;
12并且劳苦，亲手做工。被人咒骂，我们就祝福；被人逼迫，我们就忍受；
13when we are slandered, we answer gently. Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world.
13被人毁谤，我们就善劝。直到如今，人还把我们看作世界上的污秽，万物中的渣滓。
14I am not writing this to shame you, but to warn you as my beloved children.
14我写这话，不是叫你们羞愧，乃是警戒你们，好像我所亲爱的儿女一样。
15Even if you have ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.
15你们学基督的，师傅虽有一万，为父的却是不多，因我在基督耶稣里用福音生了你们。
16Therefore I urge you to imitate me.
16所以，我求你们效法我。
17That is why I have sent you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which is exactly what I teach everywhere in every church.
17因此我已打发 提摩太 到你们那里去。他在主里面，是我所亲爱、有忠心的儿子。他必提醒你们，记念我在基督里怎样行事，在各处各教会中怎样教导人。
18Some of you have become arrogant, as if I were not coming to you.
18有些人自高自大，以为我不到你们那里去；
19But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord is willing, and then I will find out not only what these arrogant people are saying, but what power they have.
19然而，主若许我，我必快到你们那里去，并且我所要知道的，不是那些自高自大之人的言语，乃是他们的权能。
20For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.
20因为 神的国不在乎言语，乃在乎权能。
21Which do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod, or in love and with a gentle spirit?
21你们愿意怎么样呢？是愿意我带着刑杖到你们那里去呢？还是要我存慈爱温柔的心呢？
