| 1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto fleshly, as unto babes in Christ. |
|
| 2 I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it: no, not even now are ye able; |
|
| 3 for ye are yet fleshly: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not fleshly, and do ye not walk after the manner of men? |
|
| 4 For when one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not men? |
|
| 5 What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? Ministers through whom ye believed; and each as the Lord gave to him. |
|
| 6 I planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. |
|
| 7 So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. |
|
| 8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor. |
|
| 9 For we are God’s fellow-workers: ye are God’s husbandry, Gods building. |
|
| 10 According to the grace of God which was given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder I laid a foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let each man take heed how he buildeth thereon. |
|
| 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. |
|
| 12 But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble; |
|
| 13 each man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man’s work of what sort it is. |
|
| 14 If any mans work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward. |
|
| 15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire. |
|
| 16 Know ye not that ye are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
|
| 17 If any man destroyeth the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye. |
|
| 18 Let no one deceive himself. If any one thinketh that he is 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 is written, He that taketh the wise in their craftiness: |
Of this World – This is correctly translated as "world." In the previous verse the KJV uses the word "world," but there the word is:which is better translated "age." That word is used in Matt. 24:3 when the disciples ask of Jesus "what shall be the sign.. of the end of the "age." |
| 20 and again, The Lord knoweth the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.
|
|
| 21 Wherefore 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 Gods. |
