⁵ For, who is Paul, or who is Apollos, but the ministers by whom ye believed, each one as the Lord gave to him?⁶ I planted, and Apollos watered; but God produced the growth.⁷ Not therefore he that planted, is to be accounted of, nor he that watered, but God who produced the growth.⁸ And he that planted, and he that watered are on a par; each receiveth his reward, according to his labor.⁹ For we labor with God: and ye are God's husbandry, and God's edifice.¹⁰ According to the grace of God which was given me, I laid the foundation like a wise architect; and another buildeth on it. But let each one see, how he buildeth on it.

¹¹ For any other foundation can no man lay, different from that which is laid, which is Jesus Messiah.¹² And if any one buildeth on this foundation, either gold, or silver, or precious stones, or wood, or hay, or stubble;¹³ the work of each will be exposed to view; for the day will expose it; because it is to be tested by fire; and the fire will disclose the work of each, of what sort it is.¹⁴ And that builder whose work shall endure, will receive his reward.¹⁵ And he, whose work shall burn up, will suffer loss; yet himself will escape; but it will be, as from the fire.

¹⁶ Know ye not, that ye are the temple of God? and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?¹⁷ 17 Whoever shall mar the temple of God, God will mar him: for the temple of God is holy, which [fn] ye are.
