Wißt ihr nicht, daß die Heiligen die Welt richten werden? So nun die Welt von euch soll gerichtet werden, seid ihr denn nicht gut genug, geringe Sachen zu richten?

¿O no saben que los santos juzgarán al mundo? Y si el mundo será juzgado por ustedes, ¿son incapaces de juzgar asuntos de poca importancia?
Ne savez-vous pas que les saints jugeront le monde? Et si c'est par vous que le monde est jugé, êtes-vous indignes de rendre les moindres jugements?
Non sapete voi che i santi giudicheranno il mondo? e se il mondo è giudicato per voi, siete voi indegni de’ minimi giudicii?
Não sabeis vós que os santos hão de julgar o mundo? Ora, se o mundo deve ser julgado por vós, sois porventura indignos de julgar as coisas mínimas?
你們豈不知聖徒要審判世界嗎?若世界要受你們的審判,難道你們不配審判這最小的事嗎?
