1 Corinthians 3

1 And I, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; as to babes in Christ.

I also, brethren, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual men, but as those who are not spiritual, as to babes in Christ.

2 I have given you milk to drink, not meat, for ye have not yet been able, nor indeed are ye yet able;

I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it. Nor indeed are ye able even now;

3 for ye are yet carnal. For whereas [there are] among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?

for ye are yet unspiritual. For while there is among you rivalry and strife, are ye not unspiritual, and walking after the manner of men?

4 For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are ye not men?

For while one saith, I am of Paul, and another, I am of Apollos, are ye not [[like common]] men?

5 Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each.

Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but ministers through whom ye believed, and that as the Lord gave to each?

6 I have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase.

I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the growth.

7 So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase.

So then, neither he that planteth nor he that watereth is anything, but God that giveth the growth.

8 But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

And he that planteth and he that watereth are one; and each will receive his own reward, according to his own labor.

9 For we are God's fellow-workmen; ye are God's husbandry, God's building.

For we are God's fellow-laborers; ye are God's field, ye are God's building.

10 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.

According to the grace of God bestowed on me, I, as a skilful master-builder, have laid the foundation; and another buildeth thereon; but let every one take heed, how he buildeth thereon.

11 For other foundation can no man lay besides that which [is] laid, which is Jesus Christ.

For other foundation can no one lay than that which is laid, which is Christ Jesus.

12 Now if any one build upon [this] foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw,

But if any one build upon this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble,

13 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.

the work of every one will be made manifest; for the day will show it; because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will prove what every one's work is.

14 If the work of any one which he has built upon [the foundation] shall abide, he shall receive a reward.

If the work which any one built thereon remaineth, he will receive reward;

15 If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but he shall be saved, but so as through [the] fire.

if any one's work shall be burned up, he will lose the reward; but he will be saved himself, yet as one escaping through fire.

16 Do ye not know that ye are [the] temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwells in you?

Know ye not, that ye are God's temple, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

17 If any one corrupt the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.

If any one defaceth the temple of God, God will deface him; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.

18 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)

Let no one deceive himself; if any one thinketh himself wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise. (aiōn g165)

19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He who takes the wise in their craftiness.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written: “He that taketh the wise in their craftiness;”

20 And again, [The] Lord knows the reasonings of the wise that they are vain.

and again: “The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.”

21 So that let no one boast in men; for all things are yours.

So then let no one glory 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 coming, all are yours;

whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come, —all are yours;

23 and ye [are] Christ's, and Christ [is] God's.

and ye are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
