³I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. ⁴My conscience^(A) is clear, but that does not make me innocent.^(B) It is the Lord who judges me.^(C) ⁵Therefore judge nothing^(D) before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes.^(E) He will bring to light^(F) what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.^(G)

1 Corinthians 4:3-5

King James Version

³But 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.

⁴For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.

⁵Therefore 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.
