1 Corinthians 3:7-14

7SoG5620 thenG5620 neitherG3777 the one who plantsG5452 norG3777 the one who watersG4222 is anythingG5100, but GodG2316 who causesG837 theG837 growthG837. 8NowG1161 the one who plantsG5452 and the one who watersG4222 are oneG1520; but eachG1538 will 1receiveG2983 his ownG2398 2rewardG3408 accordingG2596 to his ownG2398 laborG2873. 9For we are God’sG2316 3fellowG4904 workersG4904; you are God’sG2316 4 5fieldG1091, God’sG2316 6buildingG3619.

10AccordingG2596 to 7the graceG5485 of GodG2316 which was givenG1325 to me, likeG5613 a wiseG4680 masterG753 builderG753 8I laidG5087 a foundationG2310, and 9anotherG243 is buildingG2026 onG2026 it. But eachG1538 personG1538 must be carefulG991 howG4459 he buildsG2026 onG2026 it. 11For noG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 layG5087 a 10foundationG2310 otherG243 thanG3844 the one which is laidG2749, whichG3739 is JesusG2424 ChristG5547. 12NowG1161 ifG1487 anyoneG5100 buildsG2026 on the foundationG2310 with goldG5553, silverG694, preciousG5093 stonesG3037, woodG3586, hayG5528, or strawG2562, 13 11eachG1538 one’sG1538 workG2041 will becomeG1096 evidentG5318; for 12the dayG2250 will showG1213 it becauseG3754 it is to be revealedG601 with fireG4442, and the fireG4442 itselfG846 will testG1381 13the qualityG3697 of eachG1538 one’sG1538 workG2041. 14IfG1487 anyone’sG5100 workG2041 whichG3739 he has builtG2026 onG2026 it remainsG3306, he will 14receiveG2983 a rewardG3408.
