< 1 Corinthians 3 >

1 And I, brothers, could not speak to you as spiritual people, but instead as to fleshly people, as to little children in Christ.
και εγω αδελφοι ουκ ηδυνηθην υμιν λαλησαι ως πνευματικοις αλλ ως σαρκικοις ως νηπιοις εν χριστω
2 I fed you milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it; and even now you are not yet ready.
γαλα υμας εποτισα και ου βρωμα ουπω γαρ εδυνασθε αλλ ουτε ετι νυν δυνασθε
3 For you are still fleshly. For where jealousy and strife exist among you, are you not living according to the flesh, and are you not walking by human standards?
ετι γαρ σαρκικοι εστε οπου γαρ εν υμιν ζηλος και ερις και διχοστασιαι ουχι σαρκικοι εστε και κατα ανθρωπον περιπατειτε
4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another says, “I follow Apollos,” are you not living as human beings?
οταν γαρ λεγη τις εγω μεν ειμι παυλου ετερος δε εγω απολλω ουχι σαρκικοι εστε
5 Who then is Apollos? Who is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, to each of whom the Lord gave tasks.
τις ουν εστιν παυλος τις δε απολλως αλλ η διακονοι δι ων επιστευσατε και εκαστω ως ο κυριος εδωκεν
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.
εγω εφυτευσα απολλως εποτισεν αλλ ο θεος ηυξανεν
7 So then, neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything. But it is God who gives the growth.
ωστε ουτε ο φυτευων εστιν τι ουτε ο ποτιζων αλλ ο αυξανων θεος
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his own wages according to his own labor.
ο φυτευων δε και ο ποτιζων εν εισιν εκαστος δε τον ιδιον μισθον ληψεται κατα τον ιδιον κοπον
9 For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's garden, God's building.
θεου γαρ εσμεν συνεργοι θεου γεωργιον θεου οικοδομη εστε
10 According to the grace of God that was given to me as a skilled master builder, I laid a foundation and another is building on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.
κατα την χαριν του θεου την δοθεισαν μοι ως σοφος αρχιτεκτων θεμελιον τεθεικα αλλος δε εποικοδομει εκαστος δε βλεπετω πως εποικοδομει
11 For no one can lay a foundation other than the one that has been laid, that is, Jesus Christ.
θεμελιον γαρ αλλον ουδεις δυναται θειναι παρα τον κειμενον ος εστιν ιησους χριστος
12 Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw,
ει δε τις εποικοδομει επι τον θεμελιον τουτον χρυσον αργυρον λιθους τιμιους ξυλα χορτον καλαμην
13 his work will be revealed, for the daylight will reveal it. For it will be revealed in fire. The fire will test the quality of what each one had done.
εκαστου το εργον φανερον γενησεται η γαρ ημερα δηλωσει οτι εν πυρι αποκαλυπτεται και εκαστου το εργον οποιον εστιν το πυρ δοκιμασει
14 If anyone's work remains, he will receive a reward;
ει τινος το εργον μενει ο εποικοδομησεν μισθον ληψεται
15 but if anyone's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, as though escaping through fire.
ει τινος το εργον κατακαησεται ζημιωθησεται αυτος δε σωθησεται ουτως δε ως δια πυρος
16 Do you not know that you are God's temple and that the Spirit of God lives in you?
ουκ οιδατε οτι ναος θεου εστε και το πνευμα του θεου οικει εν υμιν
17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy that person. For God's temple is holy, and so are you.
ει τις τον ναον του θεου φθειρει φθερει τουτον ο θεος ο γαρ ναος του θεου αγιος εστιν οιτινες εστε υμεις
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks he is wise in this age, let him become a “fool” that he may become wise. (aiōn g165)
μηδεις εαυτον εξαπατατω ει τις δοκει σοφος ειναι εν υμιν εν τω αιωνι τουτω μωρος γενεσθω ινα γενηται σοφος (aiōn g165)
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness.”
η γαρ σοφια του κοσμου τουτου μωρια παρα τω θεω εστιν γεγραπται γαρ ο δρασσομενος τους σοφους εν τη πανουργια αυτων
20 And again, “The Lord knows that the reasoning of the wise is futile.”
και παλιν κυριος γινωσκει τους διαλογισμους των σοφων οτι εισιν ματαιοι
21 For this reason, let no one boast in men. All things are yours,
ωστε μηδεις καυχασθω εν ανθρωποις παντα γαρ υμων εστιν
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All things are yours,
ειτε παυλος ειτε απολλως ειτε κηφας ειτε κοσμος ειτε ζωη ειτε θανατος ειτε ενεστωτα ειτε μελλοντα παντα υμων εστιν
23 and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
υμεις δε χριστου χριστος δε θεου
