Corinthios I 9
Clementine Vulgate, 1598Translation
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Non sum liber? non sum Apostolus? nonne Christum Jesum Dominum nostrum vidi? nonne opus meum vos estis in Domino?
1Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?
2Et si aliis non sum Apostolus, sed tamen vobis sum: nam signaculum apostolatus mei vos estis in Domino.
2If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.
3Mea defensio apud eos qui me interrogant, hæc est:
3Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,
4Numquid non habemus potestatem manducandi et bibendi?
4Have we not power to eat and to drink?
5numquid non habemus potestatem mulierem sororem circumducendi sicut et ceteri Apostoli, et fratres Domini, et Cephas?
5Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
6aut ego solus, et Barnabas, non habemus potestatem hoc operandi?
6Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
7Quis militat suis stipendiis umquam? quis plantat vineam, et de fructu ejus non edit? quis pascit gregem, et de lacte gregis non manducat?
7Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
8Numquid secundum hominem hæc dico? an et lex hæc non dicit?
8Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
9Scriptum est enim in lege Moysi: Non alligabis os bovi trituranti. Numquid de bobus cura est Deo?
9For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
10an propter nos utique hoc dicit? Nam propter nos scripta sunt: quoniam debet in spe qui arat, arare: et qui triturat, in spe fructus percipiendi.
10Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
11Si nos vobis spiritualia seminavimus, magnum est si nos carnalia vestra metamus?
11If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
12Si alii potestatis vestræ participes sunt, quare non potius nos? Sed non usi sumus hac potestate: sed omnia sustinemus, ne quod offendiculum demus Evangelio Christi.
12If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.
13Nescitis quoniam qui in sacrario operantur quæ de sacrario sunt, edunt: et qui altari deserviunt, cum altari participant?
13Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
14Ita et Dominus ordinavit iis qui Evangelium annuntiant, de Evangelio vivere.
14Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
15Ego autem nullo horum usus sum. Non autem scripsi hæc ut ita fiant in me: bonum est enim mihi magis mori, quam ut gloriam meam quis evacuet.
15But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
16Nam si evangelizavero, non est mihi gloria: necessitas enim mihi incumbit: væ enim mihi est, si non evangelizavero.
16For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
17Si enim volens hoc ago, mercedem habeo: si autem invitus, dispensatio mihi credita est.
17For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
18Quæ est ergo merces mea? ut Evangelium prædicans, sine sumptu ponam Evangelium, ut non abutar potestate mea in Evangelio.
18What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
19Nam cum liber essem ex omnibus, omnium me servum feci, ut plures lucrifacerem.
19For though I be free from all men , yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
20Et factus sum Judæis tamquam Judæus, ut Judæos lucrarer:
20And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
21iis qui sub lege sunt, quasi sub lege essem (cum ipse non essem sub lege) ut eos qui sub lege erant, lucrifacerem: iis qui sine lege erant, tamquam sine lege essem (cum sine lege Dei non essem: sed in lege essem Christi) ut lucrifacerem eos qui sine lege erant.
21To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
22Factus sum infirmis infirmus, ut infirmos lucrifacerem. Omnibus omnia factus sum, ut omnes facerem salvos.
22To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men , that I might by all means save some.
23Omnia autem facio propter Evangelium: ut particeps ejus efficiar.
23And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you .
24Nescitis quod ii qui in stadio currunt, omnes quidem currunt, sed unus accipit bravium? Sic currite ut comprehendatis.
24Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
25Omnis autem qui in agone contendit, ab omnibus se abstinet, et illi quidem ut corruptibilem coronam accipiant: nos autem incorruptam.
25And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26Ego igitur sic curro, non quasi in incertum: sic pugno, non quasi aërem verberans:
26I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27sed castigo corpus meum, et in servitutem redigo: ne forte cum aliis prædicaverim, ipse reprobus efficiar.
27But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
