1 Corinthians 4:2-5
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 4
2
In this case, moreover, it is required of stewards that one be found trustworthy.
3
But to me it is an insignificant matter that I would be examined by you, or by
any
human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself.
4
For I am not aware of anything against myself; however I am not vindicated by this, but the one who examines me is the Lord.
5
Therefore do not go on passing judgment before
the
time,
but wait
until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of
human
hearts; and then praise will come to each person from God.
King James Version
Chapter 4
2
Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.
3
But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
4
For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.
5
Therefore judge nothing 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 of God.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 4
2
In this regard, it is required that managers be found faithful.
3
It is of little importance to me that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I don’t even judge myself.
4
For I am not conscious of anything against myself, but I am not justified by this. It is the Lord who judges me.
5
So don’t judge anything prematurely, before the Lord comes, who will both bring to light what is hidden in darkness and reveal the intentions of the hearts. And then praise will come to each one from God.
New Living Translation
Chapter 4
2
Now, a person who is put in charge as a manager must be faithful.
3
As for me, it matters very little how I might be evaluated by you or by any human authority. I don’t even trust my own judgment on this point.
4
My conscience is clear, but that doesn’t prove I’m right. It is the Lord himself who will examine me and decide.
5
So don’t make judgments about anyone ahead of time — before the Lord returns. For he will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. Then God will give to each one whatever praise is due.
English Standard Version

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.
4
For I am not aware of anything against myself, but I am not thereby acquitted. It is the Lord who judges me.
5
Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.
New International Version
Chapter 4
2
Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.
3
I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself.
4
My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me.
5
Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.
