1 Corinthians 4:3

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.

But {G1161} with me {G1698} it is {G2076} a very small thing {G1519}{G1646} that {G2443} I should be judged {G350} of {G5259} you {G5216}, or {G2228} of {G5259} man's {G442} judgment {G2250}: yea {G235}, I judge {G350} not {G3761} mine own self {G1683}.

And it matters very little to me how I am evaluated by you or by any human court; in fact, I don’t even evaluate myself.

I care very little, however, if I am judged by you or by any human court. In fact, I do not even judge myself.

But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man’s judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
