1 Corinthians 3

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

²I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able to bear it: nay, not even now are ye able;

³for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and do ye not walk after the manner of men?

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

⁵What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? Ministers through whom ye believed; and each as the Lord gave to him.

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

⁷So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

⁸Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.

⁹For we are God’s fellow-workers: ye are God’s husbandry, God’s building.

¹⁰According to the grace of God which was given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder I laid a foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let each man take heed how he buildeth thereon.

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

¹²But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble;

¹³each man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man’s work of what sort it is.
