LITV - I Corinthians - 3

3:1  And, brothers, I was not able to speak to you as to spiritual ones, but as to fleshly ones, as to babes in Christ.

3:2  I gave you milk to drink, and not food, for you were not then able, but neither now are you yet able.

3:3  For you are yet fleshly. For where among you is jealousy, and strife, and divisions, are you not fleshly and walk according to man?

3:4  For when one may say, Truly I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos; are you not fleshly?

3:5  What then is Paul? And what Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, and to each as the Lord gave?

3:6  I planted, Apollos watered, but God made to grow.

3:7  So as neither he planting is anything, nor he watering, but God making to grow.

3:8  So he planting and he watering are one, and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

3:9  For we are fellow workers of God, a field of God, and you are a building of God.

3:10  According to God's grace given to me, as a wise master builder, I laid a foundation, but another builds on it . But let each one be careful how he builds.

3:11  For no one is able to lay any other foundation beside the One having been laid, who is Jesus Christ.

3:12  And if anyone builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw,

3:13  the work of each will be revealed; for the Day will make it known, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire will prove the work of each, what sort it is.

3:14  If the work of anyone which he built remains, he will receive a reward.

3:15  If the work of anyone shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss; but he will be saved, but so as through fire.

3:16  Do you not know that you are a sanctuary of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?

3:17  If anyone corrupts the sanctuary of God, God will bring that one to corruption; for the sanctuary of God is holy, which you are.

3:18  Let no one deceive himself, if anyone thinks to be wise among you in this age, let him become foolish, that he may become wise.

3:19  For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it has been written, "He takes the wise in their own craftiness." Job 5:13

3:20  And again, " The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are worthless." LXX-Psa. 93:11; MT-Psa. 94:11

3:21  So let no one glory in men; for all things are yours,

3:22  whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours,

3:23  and you are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
