1 Corinthians 4

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Peshitta
1 Let a man so account of us as of the ministers of Christ, and the dispensers of the mysteries of God.	1 ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܚܫܝܒܝܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܪܒܝ ܒܬܐ ܕܐܪܙܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀
2 Here now it is required among the dispensers, that a man be found faithful.	2 ܗܪܟܐ ܡܟܝܠ ܡܬܒܥܐ ܒܪܒܝ ܒܬܐ ܕܐܢܫ ܟܕ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܢܫܬܟܚ ܀
3 But to me it is a very small thing to be judged by you, or by man's day; but neither do I judge my own self.	3 ܠܝ ܕܝܢ ܗܕܐ ܒܨܝܪܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܠܝ ܕܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܬܕܝܢ ܐܘ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܒܪ ܐܢܫ ܐܠܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܐܢܐ ܢܦܫܝ ܕܐܢ ܐܢܐ ܀
4 For I am not conscious to myself of any thing, yet am I not hereby justified; but he that judgeth me, is the Lord.	4 ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܕܡ ܒܢܦܫܝ ܚܫܝܫ ܐܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܘ ܒܗܕܐ ܐܙܕܕܩܬ ܕܝܢܝ ܓܝܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܀
5 Therefore judge not before the time; until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and then shall every man have praise from God.	5 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܠܐ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܙܒܢܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܕܝܢܝܢ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܡܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܢܗܪ ܟܤܝܬܗ ܕܚܫܘܟܐ ܘܓܠܐ ܡܚܫܒܬܗܘܢ ܕܠܒܘܬܐ ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܠܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܀
6 But these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollo, for your sakes; that in us you may learn, that one be not puffed up against the other for another, above that which is written.	6 ܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܝ ܡܛܠܬܟܘܢ ܗܘ ܤܡܬ ܥܠ ܦܪܨܘܦܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܘܕܐܦܠܘ ܕܒܢ ܬܐܠܦܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܬܬܪܥܘܢ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܡܐ ܕܟܬܝܒ ܘܐܢܫ ܥܠ ܚܒܪܗ ܠܐ ܢܬܪܝܡ ܡܛܠ ܐܢܫ ܀
7 For who distinguisheth thee ? Or what hast thou that thou hast not received ? And if thou hast received, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it ?	7 ܡܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܒܨܟ ܐܘ ܡܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܟ ܕܠܐ ܢܤܒܬ ܘܐܢ ܢܤܒܬ ܠܡܢܐ ܡܫܬܒܗܪ ܐܢܬ ܐܝܟ ܗܘ ܕܠܐ ܢܤܒܬ ܀
8 You are now full; you are now become rich; you reign without us; and I would to God you did reign, that we also might reign with you.	8 ܡܢ ܟܕܘ ܤܒܥܬܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܥܬܪܬܘܢ ܘܒܠܥܕܝܢ ܐܡܠܟܬܘܢ ܐܫܬܘܦ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܠܟܬܘܢ ܕܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܢܡܠܟ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܀
9 For I think that God hath set forth us apostles, the last, as it were men appointed to death: we are made a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men.	9 ܤܒܪ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܠܢ ܠܫܠܝܚܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܗܘ ܤܡܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܡܘܬܐ ܕܗܘܝܢ ܬܐܛܪܘܢ ܠܥܠܡܐ ܘܠܡܠܐܟܐ ܘܠܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܀
10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honourable, but we without honour.	10 ܚܢܢ ܫܛܝܐ ܡܛܠ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܚܟܝܡܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܚܢܢ ܟܪܝܗܐ ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܚܝܠܬܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܫܬܒܚܝܢ ܘܚܢܢ ܡܨܛܥܪܝܢ ܀
11 Even unto this hour we both hunger and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no fixed abode;	11 ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܕܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܟܦܢܝܢܢ ܘܨܗܝܢܢ ܘܥܪܛܠܝܝܢܢ ܘܡܬܩܦܚܝܢܢ ܘܒܝܬ ܩܝܡܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܢ ܀
12 And we labour, working with our own hands: we are reviled, and we bless; we are persecuted, and we suffer it.	12 ܘܠܐܝܢܢ ܟܕ ܦܠܚܝܢܢ ܒܐܝܕܝܢ ܡܨܥܪܝܢ ܠܢ ܘܡܒܪܟܝܢܢ ܪܕܦܝܢ ܠܢ ܘܡܤܝܒܪܝܢܢ ܀
13 We are blasphemed, and we entreat; we are made as the refuse of this world, the offscouring of all even until now.	13 ܡܨܚܝܢ ܠܢ ܘܒܥܝܢܢ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܢܦܬܐ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܟܘܦܪܐ ܕܟܠܢܫ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܫܐ ܀
14 I write not these things to confound you; but I admonish you as my dearest children.	14 ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܐܒܗܬܟܘܢ ܟܬܒ ܐܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܒܢܝܐ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܡܪܬܐ ܐܢܐ ܀
15 For if you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet not many fathers. For in Christ Jesus, by the gospel, I have begotten you.	15 ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܪܒܘ ܬܪܐܐ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܒܗܐ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܓܝܪ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܢܐ ܗܘ ܐܘܠܕܬܟܘܢ ܒܤܒܪܬܐ ܀
16 Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me, as I also am of Christ.	16 ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܒܝ ܬܬܕܡܘܢ ܀
17 For this cause have I sent to you Timothy, who is my dearest son and faithful in the Lord; who will put you in mind of my ways, which are in Christ Jesus; as I teach every where in every church.	17 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܫܕܪܬ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܛܝܡܬܐܘܤ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܒܪܝ ܚܒܝܒܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܒܡܪܝܐ ܕܗܘ ܢܥܗܕܟܘܢ ܐܘܪܚܬܝ ܕܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܕܡ ܕܡܠܦ ܐܢܐ ܒܟܠܗܝܢ ܥܕܬܐ ܀
18 As if I would not come to you, so some are puffed up.	18 ܐܝܟ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܐܬܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܬܚܬܪܘ ܐܢܫܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܀
19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will: and will know, not the speech of them that are puffed up, but the power.	19 ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܡܪܝܐ ܨܒܐ ܒܥܓܠ ܐܬܐ ܐܢܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܐܕܥ ܠܐ ܡܠܬܗܘܢ ܕܗܠܝܢ ܕܡܪܝܡܝܢ ܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܚܝܠܗܘܢ ܀
20 For the kingdom of God is not in speech, but in power.	20 ܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܒܡܠܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܒܚܝܠܐ ܀
21 What will you ? shall I come to you with a rod; or in charity, and in the spirit of meekness ?	21 ܐܝܟܢܐ ܨܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܚܘܛܪܐ ܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܘ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܘܒܪܘܚܐ ܡܟܝܟܬܐ ܀
