You already have everything you want, don’t you? Have you already become rich? Have you already begun to rule? And did you do that without us? I wish that you really had begun to rule. Then we could also rule with you!

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。

爾已飽足、已富有、外乎我而秉權、我誠願之、俾我偕爾秉權、

我不在哥林多、爾飽足、富有、乘權、吾誠願爾乘權、俾吾及汝乘權、

爾已飽飫、已豐富、不賴我儕、爾自掌權、爾自掌權或作爾目掌權乎我誠願爾掌權、使我儕可同掌權、

今爾等已饜足矣、爾等已富裕矣、駸駸乎將捨吾儕而獨立稱王矣。然吾固願爾等之真能為王、而使我輩亦得彈冠相慶、揚眉吐氣也！

Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have begun to reign— and that without us! How I wish that you really had begun to reign so that we also might reign with you!

Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! Without us you have become kings! And would that you did reign, so that we might share the rule with you!

You think you already have everything you need. You think you are already rich. You have begun to reign in God’s kingdom without us! I wish you really were reigning already, for then we would be reigning with you.

You are already full! You are already rich! You have begun to reign as kings without us— and I wish you did reign, so that we could also reign with you!

You are already filled, you have already become rich, you have become kings without us; and indeed, I wish that you had become kings so that we also might reign with you!

You are already full! You are already rich! You have reigned as kings without us— and indeed I could wish you did reign, that we also might reign with you!

Already are ye filled, already ye are become rich, ye have come to reign without us: yea and I would that ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

You are already full! You are already rich! You have begun to reign as kings without us— and I wish you did reign, so that we could also reign with you!

Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.

Already you are satisfied! Already you are rich! You have become kings without us! I wish you had become kings so that we could reign with you!

You are already filled. You have already become rich. You have come to reign without us. Yes, and I wish that you did reign, that we also might reign with you.

Be joyful with those who are joyful. Be sad with those who are sad.Agree with one another. Don’t be proud. Be willing to be a friend of people who aren’t considered important. Don’t think that you are better than others.

If anyone thinks they are somebody when they are nobody, they are fooling themselves.

You have made them members of a royal family. You have made them priests to serve our God. They will rule on the earth.”

You have been blessed in every way because of him. You have been blessed in all your speech and knowledge.

The thrones of the family line of David are there. That’s where the people are judged.Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Say,“ May those who love you be secure.May there be peace inside your walls. May your people be kept safe.”I’m concerned for my family and friends. So I say to Jerusalem,“ May you enjoy peace.”I’m concerned about the house of the Lord our God. So I pray that things will go well with Jerusalem.

How terrible it will be for those who think they are wise! How terrible for those who think they are really clever!

God’s grace has been given to me. So here is what I say to every one of you. Don’t think of yourself more highly than you should. Be reasonable when you think about yourself. Keep in mind the faith God has given to each of you.

No matter what happens, live in a way that brings honor to the good news about Christ. Then I will know that you remain strong together in the one Spirit. I will know this if I come and see you or only hear about you. I will know that you work together as one person. I will know that you work to spread the teachings about the good news.

How terrible for you who are well fed now! You will go hungry. How terrible for you who laugh now! You will cry and be sad.

You say,“ I am rich. I’ve become wealthy and don’t need anything.” But you don’t realize how pitiful and miserable you have become. You are poor, blind and naked.

A person who brags about gifts never given is like wind and clouds that don’t produce rain.

I’m glad when I am weak but you are strong. I pray that there will be no more problems among you.

What is our hope? What is our joy? When our Lord Jesus returns, what is the crown we will delight in? Isn’t it you?Yes, you are our glory and our joy.

Some people pretend to be rich but have nothing. Others pretend to be poor but have great wealth.

Brothers and sisters, I couldn’t speak to you as people who live by the Holy Spirit. I had to speak to you as people who were still following the ways of the world. You aren’t growing as Christ wants you to. You are still like babies.The words I spoke to you were like milk, not like solid food. You weren’t ready for solid food yet. And you still aren’t ready for it.

Jeremiah said,“ Amen, Hananiah! May the Lord do those things! May he make the words you have prophesied come true. May he bring back from Babylon the objects that belong to the Lord’ s house. May he bring back to this place all the people who were taken away.

He has done mighty things with his powerful arm. He has scattered those who are proud in their deepest thoughts.He has brought down rulers from their thrones. But he has lifted up people who are not considered important.He has filled with good things those who are hungry. But he has sent away empty those who are rich.

Here is a saying you can trust. If we died with him, we will also live with him.If we don’t give up, we will also rule with him. If we say we don’t know him, he will also say he doesn’t know us.

I know that after I leave, wild wolves will come in among you. They won’t spare any of the sheep.Even men from your own people will rise up and twist the truth. They want to get the believers to follow them.

I hope you will put up with me in a little foolish bragging. Yes, please put up with me!

Paul replied,“ I don’t care if it takes a short time or a long time. I pray to God for you and all who are listening to me today. I pray that you may become like me, except for these chains.”

But Timothy has come to us from you just now. He has brought good news about your faith and love. He has told us that you always have happy memories of us. He has also said that you desire to see us, just as we desire to see you.Brothers and sisters, in all our trouble and suffering your faith encouraged us.Now we really live, because you are standing firm in the Lord.How can we thank God enough for you? We thank God because of all the joy we have in his presence. We have this joy because of you.

But Moses replied,“ Are you jealous for me? I wish that all the Lord’ s people were prophets. And I wish that the Lord would put his Spirit on them.”

Some of you have become proud. You act as if I weren’t coming to you.

My dear friends, you have always obeyed God. You obeyed while I was with you. And you have obeyed even more while I am not with you. So continue to work out your own salvation. Do it with fear and trembling.

Your bragging is not good. It is like yeast. Don’t you know that just a little yeast makes the whole batch of dough rise?
