< 1 Corinthians 3 >

1 And I, brethren, was not able to speak to you, as to spiritual men, but as to those who are carnal, as to babes in Christ.
And I, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; as to babes in Christ.
2 I fed you with milk, not with meat; for you were not then able to bear it; indeed, not even now are you able;
I have given you milk to drink, not meat, for ye have not yet been able, nor indeed are ye yet able;
3 for you are yet carnal. For, since envy and strife and divisions are among you, are you not carnal, and do you not walk as men?
for ye are yet carnal. For whereas [there are] among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?
4 For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are you not carnal?
For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are ye not men?
5 Who, then, is Paul? and who is Apollos? Ministers by whom you have believed, even as the Lord gave to each one.
Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each.
6 I planted, Apollos watered: but God made to grow.
I have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase.
7 So, neither he that plants nor he that waters is any thing: but God that makes to grow.
So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase.
8 But he that plants and he that waters are one; and each one shall receive his own reward, according to his own labor.
But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
9 For we are fellow-laborers for God: you are God’s field, you are God’s building.
For we are God's fellow-workmen; ye are God's husbandry, God's building.
10 According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds on this. But let every one take heed how he builds on this.
According to the grace of God which has been given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation, but another builds upon it. But let each see how he builds upon it.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which, is Jesus Christ.
For other foundation can no man lay besides that which [is] laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 If any man builds on this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble,
Now if any one build upon [this] foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw,
13 each man’s work shall be made manifest; for the day shall make it manifest, for it is revealed with fire: and the fire shall try each man’s work, what sort it is.
the work of each shall be made manifest; for the day shall declare [it], because it is revealed in fire; and the fire shall try the work of each what it is.
14 If any man’s work abide, which he builds on this, he shall receive a reward;
If the work of any one which he has built upon [the foundation] shall abide, he shall receive a reward.
15 if any man’s work be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved, yet so, as through fire.
If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but he shall be saved, but so as through [the] fire.
16 Know you not that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
Do ye not know that ye are [the] temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.
If any one corrupt the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.
18 Let no one deceive himself: if any one among you is considered as wise in this age, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
Let no one deceive himself: if any one thinks himself to be wise among you in this world, let him become foolish, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written: He takes the wise in their own craftiness.
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He who takes the wise in their craftiness.
20 And again: The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
And again, [The] Lord knows the reasonings of the wise that they are vain.
21 Therefore, let no one glory in men; for all things are yours,
So that let no one boast in men; for all things are yours.
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come, all are yours:
Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or [the] world, or life, or death, or things present, or things coming, all are yours;
23 and you are Christ’s: and Christ is God’s.
and ye [are] Christ's, and Christ [is] God's.
