1 Corinthians 4:6

Now I have applied these things [that is, the analogies about factions] to myself and Apollos for your benefit, believers, so that you may learn from us not to go beyond what is written [in Scripture], so that none of you will become arrogant and boast in favor of one [minister or teacher] against the other.

And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.

All I’m doing right now, friends, is showing how these things pertain to Apollos and me so that you will learn restraint and not rush into making judgments without knowing all the facts. It’s important to look at things from God’s point of view. I would rather not see you inflating or deflating reputations based on mere hearsay. 7-8 For who do you know that really knows you, knows your heart? And even if they did, is there anything they would discover in you that you could take credit for? Isn’t everything you have and everything you are sheer gifts from God? So what’s the point of all this comparing and competing? You already have all you need. You already have more access to God than you can handle. Without bringing either Apollos or me into it, you’re sitting on top of the world—at least God’s world—and we’re right there, sitting alongside you! 9-13 It seems to me that God has put us who bear his Message on stage in a theater in which no one wants to buy a ticket. We’re something everyone stands around and stares at, like an accident in the street. We’re the Messiah’s misfits. You might be sure of yourselves, but we live in the midst of frailties and uncertainties. You might be well-thought-of by others, but we’re mostly kicked around. Much of the time we don’t have enough to eat, we wear patched and threadbare clothes, we get doors slammed in our faces, and we pick up odd jobs anywhere we can to eke out a living. When they call us names, we say, “God bless you.” When they spread rumors about us, we put in a good word for them. We’re treated like garbage, potato peelings from the culture’s kitchen. And it’s not getting any better. 14-16 I’m not writing all this as a neighborhood scold just to make you feel rotten. I’m writing as a father to you, my children. I love you and want you to grow up well, not spoiled. There are a lot of people around who can’t wait to tell you what you’ve done wrong, but there aren’t many fathers willing to take the time and effort to help you grow up. It was as Jesus helped me proclaim God’s Message to you that I became your father. I’m not, you know, asking you to do anything I’m not already doing myself.

Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us you may learn not to exceed what is written, so that no one of you will become [e]arrogant in behalf of one against the other.

En atención a vosotros he aplicado a Apolos y a mí lo que he venido diciendo, para que, poniéndonos por ejemplo, no vayáis vosotros más allá de lo debido envaneciéndoos con preferencias personales, lo que sólo puede conducir a dividiros unos contra otros.

Brothers and sisters, I have used myself and Apollos as examples to help you. You can learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Don’t go beyond what is written.” Then you won’t be proud that you follow one of us instead of the other.

Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.” Then you will not be puffed up in being a follower of one of us over against the other.

Dear brothers and sisters,[a] I have used Apollos and myself to illustrate what I’ve been saying. If you pay attention to what I have quoted from the Scriptures,[b] you won’t be proud of one of your leaders at the expense of another.

Sɛ Dawid kaa onipa bi a Onyankopɔn agye no sɛ ɔtreneeni a nnwuma nka ho a, na ɔkyerɛ sɛ,

فِيمَا سَبَقَ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، قَدَّمْتُ نَفْسِي وَأَبُلُّوسَ إِيضَاحاً لَكُمْ، لِتَتَعَلَّمُوا مِنَّا أَنْ لَا تُحَلِّقُوا بِأَفْكَارِكُمْ فَوْقَ مَا قَدْ كُتِبَ، فَلا يُفَاخِرَ أَحَدُكُمُ الآخَرَ تَحَزُّباً لأَحَدٍ.

Mga igsoon, gigamit ko ang akong kaugalingon ug si Apolos isip sumbanan, aron makat-onan ninyo ang gi-ingon nga “Ayaw pasobrahi ang giingon sa Kasulatan.” Busa ayaw ninyo ipasigarbo ang usa sa pag-ingon nga mas maayo siya kaysa usa.

Bratři, jistě rozumíte, že nemluvím jen o sobě a Apollovi, když vám tohle všechno říkám. Chtěl jsem jen na tom příkladu zdůraznit, že nemáte prosazovat své oblíbené kazatele proti jiným.

Både Apollos og jeg har valgt at følge de principper, jeg lige har omtalt, for at vi kan være et eksempel for jer, og for at I kan lære at leve efter de skriftsteder, jeg har citeret ovenfor.[a] I må lære ikke at fremhæve én person over en anden.

Liebe Brüder und Schwestern, ich habe jetzt nur von Apollos und mir gesprochen. An unserem Beispiel sollt ihr lernen, was der Satz bedeutet: »Geht nicht über das hinaus, was in der Heiligen Schrift steht.« Seid nicht überheblich und spielt nicht einen von uns gegen den anderen aus!

Hermanos, todo esto lo he aplicado a Apolos y a mí mismo para vuestro beneficio, con el fin de que aprendáis de nosotros aquello de «no ir más allá de lo que está escrito». Así ninguno de vosotros podrá engreírse de haber favorecido al uno en perjuicio del otro.

Frères et sœurs, je viens d’employer diverses images à propos d’Apollos et de moi-même pour que vous appreniez, à notre sujet, à appliquer cette règle[a] : « Ne pas aller au-delà de ce qui est écrit[b] », et ainsi qu’aucun de vous ne s’enfle d’orgueil en prenant le parti de l’un contre l’autre.

נתתי לכם כדוגמה את אפולוס ואותי, מפני שרציתי להדגיש את כוונתי: אל תפלו בין המאמינים! אל תתנשאו אחד על השני בשם שליח מסוים.

Mga utod, gin-gamit ko nga halimbawa para sa inyo ang akon kaugalingon kag si Apolos, agod matun-an ninyo ang ginasiling nga “Indi magpasobra sa ginasiling sang Kasulatan.” Gani indi ninyo pag-ipabugal ang isa kag magsiling nga mas maayo siya sang sa isa.

Draga braćo, Apolona i sebe uzeo sam za primjer da biste od nas naučili što znači: 'Ne preko onoga što stoji pisano!' te da se ne nadimate što pristajete uz jednog učitelja protiv drugoga.

Fratelli, ho fatto lʼesempio mio e di Apollo, perché impariate a non andare oltre ciò che è scritto. Non esaltate nessuno ai danni di un altro.

형제 여러분, 나는 여러분을 위하여 나 자신과 아볼로의 경우를 들어서 말하였습니다. 그것은 여러분이 기록된 말씀의 범위를 넘어서지 말라는 말의 의미를 우리에게 배워서 어떤 사람은 자랑하고 어떤 사람은 멸시하는 일이 없도록 하기 위한 것입니다.

Bilde om tjenere og forvaltere som jeg har brukt på meg selv og Apollos, viser at dere ikke skal skryte av enkelte personer, mens dere nedvurderer andre. Nei, følg oppfordringen: ”hold dere til Skriften”[a] da skal dere forstå.

Ik heb dit op Apollos en mijzelf toegepast, vrienden, om u een voorbeeld te geven. Ik hoop dat u van ons leert om u te houden aan wat geschreven staat en om iets bescheidener te zijn. Door over de één hoog op te geven, doet u de ander tekort.

Na przykładzie własnym i Apollosa pokazałem wam, że nie wolno wykraczać ponad to, co mówi Pismo, i wywyższać jednych nauczycieli, poniżając drugich.

Irmãos, apliquei essas coisas a mim e a Apolo por amor a vocês, para que aprendam de nós o que significa: “Não ultrapassem o que está escrito”. Assim, ninguém se orgulhe a favor de um homem em detrimento de outro.

Meus irmãos, tomei-me a mim próprio e a Apolo como exemplos, para ilustrar aquilo que tenho vindo a dizer: o que cada um pensa deve ser submetido ao que dizem as Escrituras. Em relação àqueles que vos ensinam as coisas de Deus, não devem envaidecer-se a respeito de um e mostrar desfavor por outro.

Huauqui, panicuna, cancunata c'uyashpami, cancunapaj allipajllataj Apolosmantapish, ñucamantapish yuyachishpa rimani. «Dios Quillcachishcapi nicushcata ama yallirichijchu» nishcataca ñucanchij shinallataj yachashpa, ama jatun tucuchunmi, chashna nini. Maijanpish quiquinlla shujcunata yalli cashcata yuyashpaca, jatun tucushpa caishujcunatapish p'iñachinguichijmari.

Fraţilor, am aplicat toate acestea mie şi lui Apolos, de dragul vostru, pentru ca, prin noi, să învăţaţi ce înseamnă „nimic dincolo de ceea ce este scris“ şi astfel nici unul dintre voi să nu se mândrească cu cineva împotriva altcuiva.

Я говорю это, братья, обо мне и об Аполлосе ради вашего блага, чтобы вы на нашем примере постигли, что означает изречение: «Ничего сверх того, что написано[a]», и чтобы вы не хвастались кем-то одним, ставя его выше другого.

Bratia, iste chápete, že nehovorím len o sebe a o Apolovi, keď vám toto všetko píšem. Chcel som len na tomto príklade zdôrazniť, že nemáte vyzdvihovať svojich obľúbených kazateľov nad iných.

Detta har jag, syskon, för er skull tillämpat på mig själv och Apollos, för att ni ska lära er av oss vad ”håll er till Skriften”[a] betyder, så att ingen skryter över en annan.

Basi ndugu zangu nimetumia mfano wa Apolo na mimi kwa faida yenu ili muweze kujifunza kutoka kwetu maana ya usemi, “Usivuke mpaka wa yale yaliyoandikwa.” Na hivyo hamtajivunia mtu fulani na kumdharau mwingine.

พี่น้องทั้งหลาย ที่ข้าพเจ้ายกเรื่องตัวเองกับอปอลโลมาพูดก็เพื่อประโยชน์ของท่าน เพื่อท่านจะได้เรียนรู้จากพวกเราถึงความหมายของคำกล่าวที่ว่า “อย่าไปไกลกว่าที่เขียนไว้” แล้วท่านจะไม่ยกคนนั้นมาข่มคนนี้

弟兄姊妹，为了你们的益处，我以亚波罗和自己作例子，好让你们效法我们不越过圣经的准则，免得有人自高自大、厚此薄彼。

弟 兄 们 ， 我 为 你 们 的 缘 故 ， 拿 这 些 事 转 比 自 己 和 亚 波 罗 ， 叫 你 们 效 法 我 们 不 可 过 於 圣 经 所 记 ， 免 得 你 们 自 高 自 大 ， 贵 重 这 个 ， 轻 看 那 个 。
