你们互相指控，已经是很大的失败，为什么不能甘愿受欺负、吃点亏呢？

夫爾曹相訟、其失已甚、盍寧受枉受虧乎、

爾曹爭訟、其過大矣、孰若受害受虧為美、

爾彼此爭訟、已為爾之大過、何不忍以受欺、何不忍以受虧乎、

又有進者、兄弟間有爭訟之事、已屬不是；孰若甘心抱屈、犯而不校之為善乎？

The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means you have been completely defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

When you take another believer to court, you have lost the battle already. Why not be treated wrongly? Why not be cheated?

To have lawsuits at all with one another is already a defeat for you. Why not rather suffer wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?

Even to have such lawsuits with one another is a defeat for you. Why not just accept the injustice and leave it at that? Why not let yourselves be cheated?

As it is, to have legal disputes against one another is already a defeat for you. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

Actually, then, it is already a defeat for you, that you have lawsuits with one another. Why not rather suffer the wrong? Why not rather be defrauded?

Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated?

Nay, already it is altogether a defect in you, that ye have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather take wrong? why not rather be defrauded?

Therefore, to have legal disputes against one another is already a moral failure for you. Why not rather put up with injustice? Why not rather be cheated?

Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather[ suffer yourselves to] be defrauded?

The fact that you have lawsuits among yourselves demonstrates that you have already been defeated. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?

不可以恶报恶。大家以为美的事，要努力去作。可能的话，总要尽你们的所能与人和睦。亲爱的啊，不要为自己伸冤，宁可等候主的忿怒，因为经上记着，主说：“伸冤在我，我必报应。”

不要以恶报恶，以辱骂还辱骂，倒要祝福，因为你们就是为此蒙召，好叫你们承受福气。

因为人若在神面前为良心的缘故，忍受冤屈的苦楚，是有福的。你们若因犯罪受责打而能忍耐，有什么可夸的呢？但你们若因行善而受苦，能忍耐，在神看来，这是有福的。你们就是为此蒙召，因基督也为你们受过苦，给你们留下榜样，叫你们跟随他的脚踪行。“他从来没有犯过罪，口里也找不到诡诈。”他被骂的时候不还嘴，受苦的时候也不说恐吓的话；只把自己交托给那公义的审判者。

你不要说：“我要以恶报恶”；要等候耶和华，他必拯救你。

可是我告诉你们，不要与恶人对抗，有人打你的右脸，把另一边也转过来让他打；有人要告你，想拿你的衬衫，就连外套也让他拿去。有人要强迫你走一里路，就陪他走两里。

你们中间的争执和打斗是从哪里来的呢？不是从你们肢体中好斗的私欲来的吗？你们放纵贪欲，如果得不到，就杀人；你们嫉妒，如果一无所得，就打斗争执。你们得不到，因为你们不求；你们求也得不到，因为你们的动机不良，要把所得的耗费在你们的私欲上。

你们要注意，不管是谁都不要以恶报恶，却要在彼此相处和对待众人这方面，常常追求良善。

有人打你一边的脸，把另一边也转给他打；有人拿你的外衣，连内衣也让他拿去。

为要看顾正直人的路径，护卫虔诚人的道路。这样，你就明白公义、公正、正直，以及一切善道。智慧必进入你的心，知识必使你欢悦。

他们心怀诡诈，现在要承担这罪的惩罚。耶和华必拆毁他们的祭坛，毁坏他们的柱像。

你就明白怎样敬畏耶和华，并且获得对神的认识。
