1 Corinthians 4:13

βλασφημούμενοι παρακαλοῦμεν· ὡς περικαθάρματα τοῦ κόσμου ἐγενήθημεν, πάντων περίψημα ἕως ἄρτι.
blasphēmoymenoi parakaloymen· ōs perikatharmata toy kosmoy egenēthēmen, pantōn peripsēma eōs arti.
King James Version (KJV)

Being defamed, we intreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.

Modern English

when we are slandered, we answer kindly. We have become the scum of the earth, the garbage of the world — right up to this moment.
