1 Corinthians 3

1 And I, brothers, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly—as to babies in Christ;

And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal, [even] as to babes in Christ.

2 with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for you were not yet able, but not even yet are you now able,

I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able.

3 for yet you are fleshly, for where [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are you not fleshly, and walk in the manner of men?

For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

4 For when one may say, “I, indeed, am of Paul,” and another, “I—of Apollos,” are you not fleshly?

For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are ye not carnal?

5 Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but servants through whom you believed, and to each as the LORD gave?

Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?

6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;

I have planted, Apollos watered: but God hath given the increase.

7 so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth—God;

So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth: but God that giveth the increase.

8 and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor,

Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own labor.

9 for we are fellow-workmen of God; you are God’s tillage, God’s building.

For we are laborers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building.

10 According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid a foundation, and another builds on [it],

According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth upon it. But let every man take heed how he buildeth upon it.

11 for no one is able to lay another foundation except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;

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

12 and if anyone builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw—

Now if any man buildeth upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

13 the work will become visible of each, for the day will declare [it], because it is revealed in fire, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire will prove;

Every man's work will be made manifest: for the day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will try every man's work, of what sort it is.

14 if the work of anyone remains that he built on [it], he will receive a wage;

If any man's work abideth which he hath built upon it, he shall receive a reward.

15 if the work of any is burned up, he will suffer loss, but himself will be saved, but so as through fire.

If any man's work shall be burned, he will suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.

16 Have you not known that you are a temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?

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

17 If anyone ruins the temple of God, God will ruin him; for the temple of God is holy, which you are.

If any man defileth the temple of God, him will God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are.

18 Let no one deceive himself; if anyone seems to be wise among you in this age—let him become a fool, that he may become wise, (aiōn g165)

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. (aiōn g165)

19 for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it has been written: “Who is taking the wise in their craftiness”;

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own 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 then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,

Therefore let no man 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 about to be—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 you [are] Christ’s, and Christ [is] God’s.

And ye are Christ's; and Christ [is] God's.
