I ALSO, brethren, was not able to speak to you as spiritual, but as carnal, as babes in Christ. (2)I fed you with milk, and not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it; nay, nor even now are ye able. (3)For ye are yet carnal; for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and do ye not walk as men? (4)For when one says, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? (5)Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to each one? (6)I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. (7)So then neither is he that plants anything, nor he that waters; but God that gives the increase. (8)And he that plants and he that waters are one; and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. (9)For we are God's fellow-laborers; ye are God's field, God's building. (10)According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master-builder I laid a foundation, and another builds thereon. But let each one take heed how he builds thereon. (11)For other foundation can no one lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. (12)And if any one builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; (13)the work of each one will be made manifest; for the day will show it, because it is revealed in fire, and the fire itself will prove of what sort is each one's work. (14)If any one's work which he built thereon remains, he will receive reward. (15)If any one's work shall be burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved; yet so as through fire. (16)Know ye not that ye are God's temple, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? (17)If any one defiles[3:17] the temple of God, him will God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, the which are ye. (18)Let no one deceive himself. If any one seems to be wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise. (19)For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: He that takes the wise in their craftiness. (20)And again: The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, That they are vain. (21)So then, let no one glory 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 ye are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
