1 ¶ And I, brothers, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.

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

2 I have fed you with milk, and not with solid food, for until now ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.

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

3 F or ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying and strife and divisions, are ye not carnal and walk as men?

for yet ye are fleshly, for where among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?

4 F or while one says, I am of Paul, and another, I am of Apollos, are ye not carnal?

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 is Apollos? but servants by whom ye believed, each one according to that which the Lord gave.

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

6 I have planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.

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

7 S o then neither is he that plants anything, neither he that waters, but God that gives the increase.

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

8 N ow he that plants and he that waters are one although each one shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

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 F or we are labourers together with God; ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

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

10 A ccording to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds upon it. But let each one see how the building is built.

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,

11 ¶ For no one can lay another foundation than that laid, which is Jesus the Christ.

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

12 N ow if anyone builds upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble,

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

13 t he work of each one shall be made manifest, for the day shall declare it because it shall be revealed by fire; the work of each one, whatever sort it is, the fire shall put it to test.

of each the work shall become manifest, for the day shall declare, because in fire it is revealed, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire shall prove;

14 I f the work of anyone abides which he has built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.

if of any one the work doth remain that he built on, a wage he shall receive;

15 I f anyone’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss, but he himself shall be saved, yet so as by fire.

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

16 ¶ Know ye not that ye are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?

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

17 I f anyone defiles the temple of God, God shall destroy that one; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

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 among you seems to be wise in this age, let them become a fool that they may be wise.

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 F or the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.

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

20 A nd again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

and again, `The Lord doth know the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.'

21 ¶ Therefore let no one glory in men. For all things are yours;

So then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,

22 w hether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come, all are yours;

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 a nd ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s.

and ye Christ's, and Christ God's.
