1 Corinthians 4:4-6
Disciples’ Literal New Testament

4 For I am conscious of nothing against myself, but I have not been declared-right[a] by this, but the One examining me is the Lord. 5 So then do not be judging anything before the time, until the Lord comes, Who will both[b] illuminate the hidden things of the darkness and reveal the motives[c] of the hearts. And at-that-time the praise[d] will come to each one from God.

Brothers, Learn From Apollos And Paul Not To Be Puffed Up About God’s Ministers

At that time each will receive their praise from God.(G)
