Paul is emphasizing that Christians must resolve disagreements among themselves. Alternate translation: "he should not dare to go ... before God's holy people!" or "he should fear God and not go ... before God's holy people!" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
Paul is angry because he thinks that the Corinthians are doing a great wrong by taking their disputes with each other to the civil court. Alternate translation: "it is wrong for him to dare ... holy people." or "he should fear God and not ... God's holy people." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion]])
# civil court
# to go to law before the unrighteous rather than before God's holy people
where a local government judge considers cases and decides who is right
to have the unrighteous, not God's holy people, decide who is right and wrong and how to punish the wrongdoer
# the unrighteous
judges who do not believe in Jesus
