ONBV Biblica Open New Living Bible (Nueva Biblia Viva 2008)
WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 ¿Cómo es que ustedes, cuando tienen algo contra otro creyente, acuden a las autoridades paganas para que juzguen el asunto, en vez de acudir a los cristianos?
1 Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?
2 ¿Ignoran acaso que un día los cristianos van a juzgar al mundo? Y si esto es así, ¿por qué entonces no resuelven entre ustedes los pequeños litigios?
2 Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?
3 ¿No saben que vamos a juzgar a los ángeles? Con mayor razón podrán muy bien resolver las cuestiones de esta vida.
3 Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?
4 ¿Por qué acudir entonces a jueces que no pertenecen a la iglesia para resolver sus asuntos?
4 If then you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?
5 Lo digo para que se avergüencen. ¿Es que no hay nadie en la iglesia que sea lo suficientemente sabio para resolver las disputas entre cristianos?
5 I say this to move you to shame. Isn’t there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?
6 En vez de esto, un hermano demanda a otro ¡ante los incrédulos!
6 But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!
7 De por sí, el hecho de que haya litigios entre ustedes es ya una gran vergüenza. ¿Por qué no soportar la injusticia? ¿No sería mejor dejar que los defrauden?
7 Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?
8 Más doloroso es que ustedes mismos cometan agravios y defrauden a otros hermanos.
8 No, but you yourselves do wrong and defraud, and that against your brothers.
9 ¿No saben que los que hacen eso no tendrán parte en el reino de Dios? Sépanlo bien: Los fornicarios, los idólatras, los adúlteros, los homosexuales y los pervertidos sexuales,
9 Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,
10 los ladrones, los avaros, los borrachos, los calumniadores y los estafadores no tendrán parte en el reino de Dios.
10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom.
11 Varios de ustedes merecían antes estos calificativos, pero ya el Señor les lavó sus pecados, los santificó y los justificó en el nombre del Señor Jesucristo y por el Espíritu de nuestro Dios.
11 Some of you were such, but you were washed. You were sanctified. You were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God.
12 «Todo me está permitido», pero no todo es para mi bien. «Todo me está permitido», pero no haré nada que luego pueda dominarme.
12 “All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are expedient. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be brought under the power of anything.
13 «Los alimentos son para el estómago y el estómago para los alimentos», y así es, aunque Dios los destruirá a ambos. Ahora bien, el cuerpo no está hecho para la inmoralidad sexual, sino para el Señor; y el Señor para el cuerpo.
13 “Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
14 Un día, con su poder, Dios va a resucitar nuestro cuerpo al igual que resucitó al Señor.
14 Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.
15 ¿No comprenden que sus cuerpos son miembros de Cristo? ¿Tomaremos un miembro de Cristo y lo uniremos a una prostituta? ¡Jamás!
15 Don’t you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!
16 ¿No saben que cuando un hombre se une a una prostituta se hace parte de ella y ella de él? Dios nos dice en las Escrituras que «los dos se vuelven una sola persona».
16 Or don’t you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body? For, “The two”, he says, “will become one flesh.”
17 Pero cuando alguien se une al Señor, el Señor y esa persona se vuelven uno en el Espíritu.
17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
18 Por eso, precisamente, les digo que huyan de los pecados sexuales. Ningún otro tipo de pecado afecta al cuerpo como este. Cuando uno comete esos pecados, peca contra su propio cuerpo.
18 Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
19 ¿No saben que el cuerpo es templo del Espíritu Santo, que Dios les dio, y que el Espíritu habita en ustedes? Ustedes no son sus propios dueños,
19 Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,
20 porque Dios nos compró a gran precio. Por tanto, honren con su cuerpo a Dios.
20 for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 6:12 John Chrysostom, Homilies on First Corinthians (Homily XVII)

    lawful:" but of things which seem to be indifferent. To illustrate my meaning: "It is lawful," he says, "to eat and to drink; but it is not expedient with excess." And so that marvellous and unexpected turn of his, which he is often wont to adopt; (Cf. Rom. xii. 21; 1 Cor. vii.

  2. Quotes verse 6:9 Polycarp of Smyrna, Epistle to the Philippians (The Epistle of Polycarp to the Philippians)

    For it is well that they should be cut off from the lusts that are in the world, since "every lust warreth against the spirit;" and "neither fornicators, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, shall inherit the kingdom of God," nor those who do things inconsistent and unbecoming.

    Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, not effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God." And as it was not to those who are without that he said these things, but to us, lest we should be cast forth from the kingdom …

    … of Judas the traitor, the Apostle Paul, though he labored more than them all, should have no throne of judgment; but he unmistakeably considers himself to be included in the number of the judges when he says, "Know ye not that we shall judge angels?" The same rule is to be observed in applying the number twelve to those who …
