1 - And I, brethren, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly--as to babes in Christ;

2 - with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for ye were not yet able, but not even yet are ye now able,

3 - for yet ye are fleshly, for where <FI>there is<Fi> among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?

4 - for when one may say, `I, indeed, am of Paul;' and another, `I--of Apollos;' are ye not fleshly?

5 - Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but ministrants through whom ye did believe, and to each as the Lord gave?

6 - I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;

7 - so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth--God;

8 - and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each his own reward shall receive, according to his own labour,

9 - for of God we are fellow-workmen; God's tillage, God's building ye are.

10 - According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, a foundation I have laid, and another doth build on <FI>it<Fi> ,

11 - for other foundation no one is able to lay except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;

12 - and if any one doth build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw--

13 - of each the work shall become manifest, for the day shall declare <FI>it<Fi> , because in fire it is revealed, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire shall prove;

14 - if of any one the work doth remain that he built on <FI>it<Fi> , a wage he shall receive;

15 - if of any the work is burned up, he shall suffer loss; and himself shall be saved, but so as through fire.

16 - have ye not known that ye are a sanctuary of God, and the Spirit of God doth dwell in you?

17 - if any one the sanctuary of God doth waste, him shall God waste; for the sanctuary of God is holy, the which ye are.

18 - Let no one deceive himself; if any one doth seem to be wise among you in this age--let him become a fool, that he may become wise,

19 - for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it hath been written, `Who is taking the wise in their craftiness;'

20 - and again, `The Lord doth know the reasonings 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 about to be--all are yours,

23 - and ye <FI>are<Fi> Christ's, and Christ <FI>is<Fi> God's.
