| 1. | And I, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; 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; |
| 3. | for ye are yet carnal. For whereas there are among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man? |
| 4. | For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are ye not men? |
| 5. | Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each. |
| 6. | I have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase. |
| 7. | So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase. |
| 8. | But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. |
| 9. | For we are God`s fellow-workmen; ye are God`s husbandry, 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. |
| 11. | For other foundation can no man lay besides that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. |
| 12. | Now if any one build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw, |
| 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. |
| 14. | If the work of any one which he has built upon the foundation shall abide, he shall receive a 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. |
| 16. | Do ye not know that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells 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. |
| 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. |
| 19. | For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He who takes the wise in their craftiness. |
| 20. | And again, The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise that they are vain. |
| 21. | So that let no one boast 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; |
| 23. | and ye are Christ`s, and Christ is God`s. |
