4 Therefore, if you have disputes about such matters, do you ask for a ruling from those whose way of life is scorned in the church?

4 So if you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who have no standing in the church?

4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.

4 If you have legal disputes about such matters, why go to outside judges who are not respected by the church?

4 If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge?

4 If you have ordinary cases that must be judged, are you going to appoint people as judges who mean nothing to the church?

4 If then ye have to judge things pertaining to this life, do ye set them to judge who are of no account in the church?

4 If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those to judge who are little esteemed in the assembly.

4 When you have cases dealing with this life, why do you allow people whom the church has a low opinion of to be your judges?

4 So if you have cases pertaining to this life, do you select those who have no standing in the church to judge?

4 If you have ordinary cases, then, do you appoint as judges those who have no standing in the church?

4 Therefore, if you have courts with regard to ordinary matters, do you seat these despised people in the church?

4 So if you want to press charges in matters like that, appoint as judges members of the church who aren’t very important!
