1 And I, brethren, not was able to speak to you as to spiritual ones, but as to fleshly ones, even as to babes in Anointed.
2 Milk you I gave to drink, not solid food; not yet were you able. But not even yet now are you able;
3 yet for fleshly ones you are. Where for among you envy and strife and divisions, not fleshly ones you are, and according to man walk you?
4 When for may say any one: I indeed am of Paul; another and: I, of Apollos; not fleshly ones are you?
5 Who then is Paul, who and Apollos? Servants, through whom you believed, and to each as the Lord gave.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but the God caused to grow;
7 so neither he planting is anything, nor he watering, but he causing to grow God.
8 He planting but and he watering one are; each and the own reward will receive according to the own labor.
9 Of God for we are fellowworkers; of God a farm, of God a building you are.
10 According to the favor of the God that having been given to me, as a wise architect a foundation I have laid; another but builds up; each one but let see, how he builds up.
11 Foundation for another no one is able to have laid besides that being laid, who is Jesus Anointed.
12 If but any one builds on the foundation this gold, silver, stones costly, wood, hay, straw;
13 of each one the work manifest shall become; the for day will show, because in fire it is revealed; and of each one the work what kind it is, the fire will try.
14 If of any one the work abides which he built up, a reward he will receive;
15 if of any one the work shall be consumed, he will suffer loss; he himself but shall be saved, in this way but as through fire.
16 Not know you, that a temple of God you are, and the spirit of the God dwells in you?
17 If any one the temple of the God destroys, will destroy him the God; the for temple of the God holy is, who ever are you.
18 No one himself let deceive; if any one seems wise to be among you in the age this, a fool let him become, so that he may become wise.
19 The for wisdom of the world this, foolish with the God is; it has been written for: He is catching the wise ones in the craftiness of them;
20 and again: Lord knows the reasonings of the wise ones, that they are vain.
21 Therefore no one let boast in men; all things for of you is,
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or world, or life, or death, or present things, or being about to be; all things of you is;
23 you and, of Anointed; Anointed and, of God.
1 Brothers, I was not able to speak to you as to spiritual men, but as fleshly men, as babes infants in Christ.
2 I fed you milk and not solid food. You were not able to receive it. You are not able now!
3 You are still fleshly! There is envy, strife, and divisions among you. Do you not walk as ordinary men?
4 While one said, »I belong to Paul;« and another, »I belong to Apollos;« are you not fleshly human beings?
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God caused the growth.
7 Neither he that plants and neither he that waters is anything; but God gives the increase.
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one in purpose and every man will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9 For we are fellow workers together with God. You are God's field under cultivation. You are God's building.
10 According to the grace of God that is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let every man take heed how he builds.
11 No other foundation can be laid than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if any man builds upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, and stubble;
13 every man's work will be made known, for the day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will prove what sort every man's work is.
14 If a man's work that he built upon lasts, he will receive a reward.
15 If a man's work will be burned, he will suffer loss: but he will be saved by fire.
16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17 God will destroy any man who defiles the temple of God! For the temple of God is holy. You are that temple!
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
19 For the wisdom of this age is foolishness with God. It is written: »He catches the wise in their own craftiness deception.« (Job 5:13)
20 And again: »Jehovah knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain uselessempty.« (Psalm 94:11)
21 Therefore let no man 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 to come; all are yours!
23 And you belong to Christ and Christ belongs to God.
