Reading 1 Corinthians chapter 6 in the Darby Bible, public-domain text from 1890.

Verses 1–10

1 Dare any one of you, having a matter against another, prosecute his suit before the unjust, and not before the saints?

2 Do ye not then know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world is judged by you, are ye unworthy of [the] smallest judgments?

3 Do ye not know that we shall judge angels? and not then matters of this life?

4 If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those [to judge] who are little esteemed in the assembly.

5 I speak to you [to put you] to shame. Thus there is not a wise person among you, not even one, who shall be able to decide between his brethren!

6 But brother prosecutes his suit with brother, and that before unbelievers.

7 Already indeed then it is altogether a fault in you that ye have suits between yourselves. Why do ye not rather suffer wrong? why are ye not rather defrauded?

8 But ye do wrong, and defraud, and this [your] brethren.

9 Do ye not know that unrighteous [persons] shall not inherit [the] kingdom ofGod? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who make women of themselves, nor who abuse themselves with men,

10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor [the] rapacious, shall inherit [the] kingdom ofGod.
