He is particularly thinking about how children do not know very much or do very much. Paul thus wants the Corinthians not to be like children in how children know every little. He wants the Corinthians to be like children by doing very little **evil**. If your readers would misunderstand this figure of speech, you could express it as an analogy or in a nonfigurative way. If possible, preserve the metaphor because Paul has already used “child” language in [13:11](../13/11.md).

If your readers would misunderstand this, you could use a comparable phrase that indicates that Paul is quoting from an important text.
