1 Corinthians 4:1–4 · Berean Standard Bible

1 So then, men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God.

2 Now it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.

3 I care very little, however, if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

4 My conscience is clear, but that does not vindicate me. It is the Lord who judges me.
