¹ And I, brethren, could not speak to you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, as unto babes in Christ.² I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it: nor are ye now able.³ For ye are still carnal: for while there is among you emulation, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?⁴ For while one saith, I am of Paul,

⁵ and another, I am of Apollos, are ye not carnal? Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?⁶ I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.⁷ So then, neither is he that planteth any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.⁸ But he that planteth and he that watereth are one; and every one shall receive his own reward, according to his own labour.⁹ For we are fellow-labourers of God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.¹⁰ According to the grace of God given to me, as a wise master-builder I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon; but let every one take heed how he buildeth thereon.

¹¹ For other foundation can no man lay, than what is laid, which is Jesus Christ: And if any one build on this foundation, gold, silver, costly stones;¹² wood, hay, stubble, Every one's work shall be made manifest;¹³ for the day shall declare it: for it is revealed by fire; yea the fire shall try every one's work, of what sort it is.¹⁴ If any one's work which he hath built thereon shall remain, he shall receive a reward.¹⁵ If any one's work shall be burnt, he shall suffer loss, but himself shall be saved, yet so as through the fire.

¹⁶ Know ye not, that ye are the temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?¹⁷ If any man destroy the temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

¹⁸ Let none deceive himself: if any one among you thinketh himself to be wise, let him become a fool in this world, that he may become wise.¹⁹ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; as it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.²⁰ And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

²¹ Therefore let none 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,²³ all are yours, And ye are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
