1 Corinthians 3 — GNV
3Verse 1And I could not speake vnto you, brethren, as vnto spirituall men, but as vnto carnall, euen as vnto babes in Christ.Verse 2I gaue you milke to drinke, and not meat: for yee were not yet able to beare it, neither yet nowe are yee able.Verse 3For yee are yet carnall: for whereas there is among you enuying, and strife, and diuisions, are ye not carnall, and walke as men?Verse 4For when one sayeth, I am Pauls, and another, I am Apollos, are yee not carnall?Verse 5Who is Paul then? and who is Apollos, but the ministers by whome yee beleeued, and as the Lord gaue to euery man?Verse 6I haue planted, Apollos watred, but God gaue the increase.Verse 7So then, neither is hee that planteth any thing, neither hee that watreth, but God that giueth the increase.Verse 8And he that planteth, and he that watreth, are one, and euery man shall receiue his wages, according to his labour.Verse 9For we together are Gods labourers: yee are Gods husbandrie, and Gods building.Verse 10According to the grace of God giuen to mee, as a skilfull master builder, I haue laide the foundation, and another buildeth thereon: but let euery man take heede how he buildeth vpon it.Verse 11For other foundation can no man laie, then that which is laied, which is Iesus Christ.Verse 12And if any man builde on this foundation, golde, siluer, precious stones, timber, haye, or stubble,Verse 13Euery mans worke shalbe made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shalbe reueiled by the fire: and the fire shall trie euery mans worke of what sort it is.Verse 14If any mans worke, that he hath built vpon, abide, he shall receiue wages.Verse 15If any mans worke burne, he shall lose, but he shalbe saued himselfe: neuerthelesse yet as it were by the fire.Verse 16Knowe ye not that ye are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?Verse 17If any man destroy the Temple of God, him shall God destroy: for the Temple of God is holy, which ye are.Verse 18Let no man deceiue himselfe: If any man among you seeme to be wise in this world, let him be a foole, that he may be wise.Verse 19For the wisdome of this worlde is foolishnesse with God: for it is written, He catcheth the wise in their owne craftinesse.Verse 20And againe, The Lord knoweth that the thoughtes of the wise be vaine.Verse 21Therefore let no man reioyce in men: for all things are yours.Verse 22Whether it be Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death: whether they be things present, or thinges to come, euen all are yours,Verse 23And ye Christes, and Christ Gods.
