1 Corinthians 4:6-8
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
Brothers, Learn From Apollos And Paul Not To Be Puffed Up About God’s Ministers
6 Now brothers, I applied[a] these things to myself and Apollos for your sakes, in order that in us you might learn the saying “Do not go[b] beyond the things which have been written”— in order that you might not be puffed-up, one on behalf of the one against the other. 7 For who discerns[c] you to be superior? And what do you have that you did not receive? But if indeed you received it, why do you boast as-though not having received it?
For God Has Displayed Us Apostles As Last And Lowest In This World
8 You are already satisfied[d]! You already became-rich! You became-kings[e] without us! And o-that indeed you became-kings, in order that we also might reign with you.
