1 Corinthians · Πρὸς Κορινθίους Αʹ

1 Corinthians 4:9

Δοκῶ γὰρ ὅτι ὁ Θεὸς ἡμᾶς τοὺς ἀποστόλους ἐσχάτους ἀπέδειξεν ὡς ἐπιθανατίους· ὅτι θέατρον ἐγενήθημεν τῷ κόσμῳ, καὶ ἀγγέλοις, καὶ ἀνθρώποις.
Dokō gar oti o Theos ēmas toys apostoloys eschatoys apedeixen ōs epithanatioys· oti theatron egenēthēmen tō kosmō, kai aggelois, kai anthrōpois.
King James Version (KJV)

For I think that God hath set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.

Modern English

For it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display at the end of the procession, like those condemned to die in the arena. We have been made a spectacle to the whole universe, to angels as well as to human beings.
