1 Corinthians 3:4-17

4For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are ye not men?

5Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each.

6I have planted; Apollos watered; but 1God has given the increase.

7So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but 2God the giver of the increase.

8But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

9For we are 3God's fellow-workmen; ye are 4God's husbandry, 5God's building.

10According to the grace of 6God which has been given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation, but another builds upon it. But let each see how he builds upon it.

11For other foundation can no man lay besides that which [is] laid, which is Jesus Christ.

12Now if any one build upon [this] foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw,

13the work of each shall be made manifest; for the day shall declare [it], because it is revealed in fire; and the fire shall try the work of each what it is.

14If the work of any one which he has built upon [the foundation] shall abide, he shall receive a reward.

15If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but he shall be saved, but so as through [the] fire.

16Do ye not know that ye are [the] temple of 7God, and [that] the Spirit of 8God dwells in you?

17If any one corrupt the temple of 9God, him shall 10God destroy; for the temple of 11God is holy, and such are ye.
