1 Corinthians 4:4

For I know nothing against myself. Yet I am not justified by this, but he who judges me is the Lord.

World English Bible

In The King James Version

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

In Context

3But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged by you, or by a human court. Yes, I don’t even judge my own self.

5Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.
