*We* [are] fools for Christ's sake, but *ye* prudent in Christ: *we* weak, but *ye* strong: *ye* glorious, but *we* in dishonour.

Not [as] chiding do I write these things to you, but as my beloved children I admonish [you].

But some have been puffed up, as if I were not coming to you;

but I will come quickly to you, if the Lord will; and I will know, not the word of those that are puffed up, but the power.

For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.

For *I*, [as] absent in body but present in spirit, have already judged as present,

so that let us celebrate the feast, not with old leaven, nor with leaven of malice and wickedness, but with unleavened [bread] of sincerity and truth.

But now I have written to you, if any one called brother be fornicator, or avaricious, or idolater, or abusive, or a drunkard, or rapacious, not to mix with [him]; with such a one not even to eat.

But those without God judges. Remove the wicked person from amongst yourselves.

And these things were some of you; but ye have been washed, but ye have been sanctified, but ye have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

All things are lawful to me, but all things do not profit; all things are lawful to me, but *I* will not be brought under the power of any.

Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will bring to nothing both it and them: but the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

But he that [is] joined to the Lord is one Spirit.

Flee fornication. Every sin which a man may practise is without the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body.

But concerning the things of which ye have written [to me]: [It is] good for a man not to touch a woman;

but on account of fornications, let each have his own wife, and each [woman] have her own husband.

The wife has not authority over her own body, but the husband: in like manner also the husband has not authority over his own body, but the wife.

But this I say, as consenting [to], not as commanding [it].
