1 Corinthians 3
1 And I, brothers, could not address you as spiritual, but as fleshly, as infants in Christ.
hE bhrAtaraH, ahamAtmikairiva yuSmAbhiH samaM sambhASituM nAzaknavaM kintu zArIrikAcAribhiH khrISTadharmmE zizutulyaizca janairiva yuSmAbhiH saha samabhASE|
2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you weren't yet ready. And even now you are still not ready,
yuSmAn kaThinabhakSyaM na bhOjayan dugdham apAyayaM yatO yUyaM bhakSyaM grahItuM tadA nAzaknuta idAnImapi na zaknutha, yatO hEtOradhunApi zArIrikAcAriNa AdhvE|
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?
yuSmanmadhyE mAtsaryyavivAdabhEdA bhavanti tataH kiM zArIrikAcAriNO nAdhvE mAnuSikamArgENa ca na caratha?
4 For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not merely human?
paulasyAhamityApallOrahamiti vA yadvAkyaM yuSmAkaM kaizcit kaizcit kathyatE tasmAd yUyaM zArIrikAcAriNa na bhavatha?
5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him.
paulaH kaH? ApallO rvA kaH? tau paricArakamAtrau tayOrEkaikasmai ca prabhu ryAdRk phalamadadAt tadvat tayOrdvArA yUyaM vizvAsinO jAtAH|
6 I planted. Apollos watered. But God made it grow.
ahaM rOpitavAn ApallOzca niSiktavAn IzvarazcAvarddhayat|
7 So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who makes it grow.
atO rOpayitRsEktArAvasArau varddhayitEzvara Eva sAraH|
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
rOpayitRsEktArau ca samau tayOrEkaikazca svazramayOgyaM svavEtanaM lapsyatE|
9 For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, God's building.
AvAmIzvarENa saha karmmakAriNau, Izvarasya yat kSEtram Izvarasya yA nirmmitiH sA yUyamEva|
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.
Izvarasya prasAdAt mayA yat padaM labdhaM tasmAt jnjAninA gRhakAriNEva mayA bhittimUlaM sthApitaM tadupari cAnyEna nicIyatE| kintu yEna yannicIyatE tat tEna vivicyatAM|
11 For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.
yatO yIzukhrISTarUpaM yad bhittimUlaM sthApitaM tadanyat kimapi bhittimUlaM sthApayituM kEnApi na zakyatE|
12 But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw;
EtadbhittimUlasyOpari yadi kEcit svarNarUpyamaNikASThatRNanalAn nicinvanti,
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.
tarhyEkaikasya karmma prakAziSyatE yataH sa divasastat prakAzayiSyati| yatO hatOstana divasEna vahnimayEnOdEtavyaM tata Ekaikasya karmma kIdRzamEtasya parIkSA bahninA bhaviSyati|
14 If any man's work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward.
yasya nicayanarUpaM karmma sthAsnu bhaviSyati sa vEtanaM lapsyatE|
15 If any man's work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.
yasya ca karmma dhakSyatE tasya kSati rbhaviSyati kintu vahnE rnirgatajana iva sa svayaM paritrANaM prApsyati|
16 Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and that God's Spirit lives in you?
yUyam Izvarasya mandiraM yuSmanmadhyE cEzvarasyAtmA nivasatIti kiM na jAnItha?
17 If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him; for God's temple is holy, which you are.
Izvarasya mandiraM yEna vinAzyatE sO'pIzvarENa vinAzayiSyatE yata Izvarasya mandiraM pavitramEva yUyaM tu tanmandiram AdhvE|
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 g165)
kOpi svaM na vanjcayatAM| yuSmAkaM kazcana cEdihalOkasya jnjAnEna jnjAnavAnahamiti budhyatE tarhi sa yat jnjAnI bhavEt tadarthaM mUPhO bhavatu| (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, "He traps the wise in their craftiness."
yasmAdihalOkasya jnjAnam Izvarasya sAkSAt mUPhatvamEva| Etasmin likhitamapyAstE, tIkSNA yA jnjAninAM buddhistayA tAn dharatIzvaraH|
20 And again, "The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile."
punazca| jnjAninAM kalpanA vEtti paramEzO nirarthakAH|
21 Therefore let no one boast about people. For all things are yours,
ataEva kO'pi manujairAtmAnaM na zlAghatAM yataH sarvvANi yuSmAkamEva,
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours,
paula vA ApallO rvA kaiphA vA jagad vA jIvanaM vA maraNaM vA varttamAnaM vA bhaviSyadvA sarvvANyEva yuSmAkaM,
23 and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
