And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slave—

谁愿为首，就必作你们的仆人。

谁愿为首，就要作你们的仆人。

谁愿为首，就要作你们的仆人。

谁要居首位，谁就要做大家的奴仆。

谁想在你们中间为首的，就要作你们的奴仆。

无论谁想在你们当中为首，谁就该做你们的奴仆，

誰願為首，就必作你們的僕人。

誰願為首，就要作你們的僕人。

誰願為首，就要作你們的僕人。

誰要居首位，誰就要做大家的奴僕。

誰想在你們中間為首的，就要作你們的奴僕。

你們中間凡想要為首的，就該做你們的奴僕；

無論誰想在你們當中為首，誰就該做你們的奴僕，

欲為首者、當為爾僕、

爾中欲為大者、當為爾役、欲為首者、當為爾僕、

欲為首者、當為爾僕、

孰願為首、當為爾僕。

and whoever wants to be first must be your slave—

And anyone who wants to be first must be your slave.

and whoever would be first among you must be your slave,

and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave.

and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave;

and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your slave;

and whosoever would be first among you shall be your servant:

and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave;

And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:

and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave–

Whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant,

For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake.

But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them,“ What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?”But they kept silent, for on the road they had disputed among themselves who would be the greatest.And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them,“ If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.”

Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win the more;and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might win those who are under the law;to those who are without law, as without law( not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law;to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.Now this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.

Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provided for my necessities, and for those who were with me.I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said,‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Are they ministers of Christ?— I speak as a fool— I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.From the Jews five times I received forty stripes minus one.Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;in weariness and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness—

For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles.

I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to wise and to unwise.

And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I am loved.
