2. Don’t you know that the kedoshim will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to judge trivial matters?
3. Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more the matters of this life!
4. So if you have courts for matters of this life, why do you appoint as judges those who have no standing in the community?
5. I say this to put you to shame! Isn’t there even one wise man among you who will be able to settle disputes between his brethren?
6. Instead, a brother goes to court against a brother—and before unbelievers at that!
7. Therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you have lawsuits among yourselves. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?
8. But you yourselves do wrong and cheat—and against your brothers and sisters at that!
9. Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Don’t be deceived! The sexually immoral, idolaters, adulterers, those who practice homosexuality,
10. thieves, the greedy, drunkards, slanderers, swindlers—none of these will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. That is what some of you were—but you were washed, you were made holy, you were set right in the name of the Lord Yeshua the Messiah and by the Ruach of our God.
