< 1 Corinthians 3 >
1 And I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual, but as fleshly, as infants in Messiah.
AND I, my brethren, could not speak with you as with the spiritual, but as with the carnal, and as with babes in the Meshiha.
2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you weren't yet ready. And even now you are still not ready,
I have sustained you with milk, and have not given you meat; for as yet you could not, nor can you now, (bear it).
3 for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and living by human standards?
For as yet you are in the flesh. For while there are among you envy and contentions and divisions, are you not carnal, and walking in the flesh?
4 For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not merely human?
For while some of you say, I am of Paulos, and another, I am of Apollo, are you not carnal?
5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him.
For who is Paulos, or who Apollo, but ministers by whom you have believed and each as the Lord gave to him?
6 I planted. Apollos watered. But God made it grow.
I have planted, and Apollo watered, but Aloha made to increase.
7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who makes it grow.
He then who planteth is not any thing nor he who watereth; but Aloha who maketh to increase.
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
But he who planteth and he who watereth are one, (and) each according to his labour his recompence receiveth.
9 For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, God's building.
For with Aloha we work; and the work of Aloha and the edifice of Aloha are you.
10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one be careful how he builds on it.
And according to the grace of Aloha which is given to me, I have laid the foundation as a wise architect; but another hath built upon it.
11 For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Yeshua the Messiah.
But let every man beware how he buildeth upon it. For another foundation besides this which is laid no man can lay, (that, namely, ) which is Jeshu the Meshiha.
12 But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw;
And if any man build upon this foundation gold, or silver, or precious stones; or wood, or hay, or stubble;
13 each man's work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man's work is.
the work of every one shall be revealed, for that day shall reveal it; for by the fire shall it be revealed, and the work of every man as it is the fire shall distinguish.
14 If any man's work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward.
And he whose work which he builded shall abide, will receive his recompense;
15 If any man's work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.
and he whose work shall be burned, shall fail; but he (himself) shall be rescued, but so as from fire.
16 Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and that God's Ruach lives in you?
KNOW YOU not that you are the temple of Aloha, and (that) the Spirit of Aloha inhabiteth in you?
17 If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him; for God's temple is holy, which you are.
Whoso destroyeth the temple of Aloha, him will Aloha destroy for the temple of Aloha is holy, which you are.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this age, let him become a fool, that he may become wise. (aiōn )
Let no man deceive himself. Whoever among you supposeth himself wise in this world, let him become foolish, that he may be wise. (aiōn )
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He traps the wise in their craftiness."
For the wisdom of this world is folly with Aloha; for it is written, He hath taken the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, "The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile."
And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
21 Therefore let no one boast about people. For all things are yours,
On this account let no one boast in men: for every thing is yours;
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Kefa, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours,
whether Paulos, or Apolo, or Kipha, or the world, or life, or death, or things standing, or things to be; every thing is yours,
23 and you are Messiah's, and Messiah is God's.
and you are of the Meshiha, and the Meshiha of Aloha.
