10AccordingG2596 to 5the graceG5485 of GodG2316 which was givenG1325 to me, likeG5613 a wiseG4680 masterG753 builderG753 6I laidG5087 a foundationG2310, and 7anotherG243 is buildingG2026 on it. But eachG1538 manG1538 must be carefulG991 howG4459 he buildsG2026 on it. 11For noG3762 manG3762 canG1410 layG5087 a 8foundationG2310 otherG243 thanG3844 the one which is laidG2749, whichG3739 is JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 12NowG1161 ifG1487 anyG5100 manG5100 buildsG2026 on the foundationG2310 with goldG5553, silverG694, 9preciousG5093 stonesG3037, woodG3586, hayG5528, strawG2562, 1310eachG1538 man’sG1538 workG2041 will becomeG1096 evidentG5318; for 11the dayG2250 will showG1213 it becauseG3754 it is to be revealedG601 with fireG4442, and the fireG4442 itselfG846 will testG1381 12the qualityG3697 of eachG1538 man’sG1538 workG2041.
