- 1And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.Κἀγώ ἀδελφοί οὐκ ἠδυνήθην ⸂λαλῆσαι ὑμῖν⸃ ὡς πνευματικοῖς ἀλλ’ ὡς ⸀σαρκίνοις ὡς νηπίοις ἐν Χριστῷ
- 2I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.γάλα ὑμᾶς ἐπότισα ⸀οὐ βρῶμα οὔπω γὰρ ἐδύνασθε ἀλλ’ ⸀οὐδὲ ἔτι νῦν δύνασθε
- 3For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?ἔτι γὰρ σαρκικοί ἐστε ὅπου γὰρ ἐν ὑμῖν ζῆλος καὶ ⸀ἔρις οὐχὶ σαρκικοί ἐστε καὶ κατὰ ἄνθρωπον περιπατεῖτε
- 4For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?ὅταν γὰρ λέγῃ Ἐγὼ μέν εἰμι Παύλου ἕτερος δέ Ἐγὼ Ἀπολλῶ ⸂οὐκ ἄνθρωποί⸃ ἐστε
- 5Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?⸀Τί οὖν ἐστιν ⸂Ἀπολλῶς τί δέ ἐστιν Παῦλος⸃ ⸀διάκονοι δι’ ὧν ἐπιστεύσατε καὶ ἑκάστῳ ὡς ὁ κύριος ἔδωκεν
- 6I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.ἐγὼ ἐφύτευσα Ἀπολλῶς ἐπότισεν ἀλλὰ ὁ θεὸς ηὔξανεν
- 7So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.ὥστε οὔτε ὁ φυτεύων ἐστίν οὔτε ὁ ποτίζων ἀλλ’ ὁ αὐξάνων θεός
- 8Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.ὁ φυτεύων δὲ καὶ ὁ ποτίζων ἕν εἰσιν ἕκαστος δὲ τὸν ἴδιον μισθὸν λήμψεται κατὰ τὸν ἴδιον κόπον
- 9For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.θεοῦ γάρ ἐσμεν συνεργοί θεοῦ γεώργιον θεοῦ οἰκοδομή ἐστε
- 10According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.Κατὰ τὴν χάριν τοῦ θεοῦ τὴν δοθεῖσάν μοι ὡς σοφὸς ἀρχιτέκτων θεμέλιον ⸀ἔθηκα ἄλλος δὲ ἐποικοδομεῖ ἕκαστος δὲ βλεπέτω πῶς ἐποικοδομεῖ
- 11For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.θεμέλιον γὰρ ἄλλον οὐδεὶς δύναται θεῖναι παρὰ τὸν κείμενον ὅς ἐστιν Ἰησοῦς Χριστός
- 12Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;εἰ δέ ἐποικοδομεῖ ἐπὶ τὸν ⸀θεμέλιον ⸂χρυσόν ἄργυρον⸃ λίθους τιμίους ξύλα χόρτον καλάμην
- 13Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.ἑκάστου τὸ ἔργον φανερὸν γενήσεται ἡ γὰρ ἡμέρα δηλώσει ὅτι ἐν πυρὶ ἀποκαλύπτεται καὶ ἑκάστου τὸ ἔργον ὁποῖόν ἐστιν τὸ πῦρ ⸀αὐτὸ δοκιμάσει
- 14If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.εἴ τὸ ἔργον μενεῖ ὃ ἐποικοδόμησεν μισθὸν λήμψεται
- 15If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.εἴ τὸ ἔργον κατακαήσεται ζημιωθήσεται αὐτὸς δὲ δὲ ὡς διὰ πυρός
- 16Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?Οὐκ ὅτι ναὸς θεοῦ ἐστε καὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τοῦ θεοῦ ⸂οἰκεῖ ἐν ὑμῖν⸃
- 17If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.εἴ τὸν ναὸν τοῦ θεοῦ φθείρει φθερεῖ τοῦτον ὁ θεός ὁ γὰρ ναὸς τοῦ θεοῦ ἅγιός ἐστιν οἵτινές ἐστε ὑμεῖς
- 18Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.Μηδεὶς ἑαυτὸν ἐξαπατάτω εἴ δοκεῖ σοφὸς εἶναι ἐν ὑμῖν ἐν τῷ αἰῶνι τούτῳ μωρὸς γενέσθω ἵνα γένηται σοφός
- 19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.ἡ γὰρ σοφία τοῦ κόσμου τούτου μωρία παρὰ τῷ θεῷ ἐστιν γέγραπται γάρ Ὁ δρασσόμενος τοὺς σοφοὺς ἐν τῇ πανουργίᾳ αὐτῶν
- 20And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.καὶ πάλιν Κύριος γινώσκει τοὺς διαλογισμοὺς τῶν σοφῶν ὅτι εἰσὶν μάταιοι
- 21Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;ὥστε μηδεὶς καυχάσθω ἐν ἀνθρώποις πάντα γὰρ ὑμῶν ἐστιν
- 22Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;εἴτε Παῦλος εἴτε Ἀπολλῶς εἴτε Κηφᾶς εἴτε κόσμος εἴτε ζωὴ εἴτε θάνατος εἴτε ἐνεστῶτα εἴτε μέλλοντα πάντα ⸀ὑμῶν
- 23And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.ὑμεῖς δὲ Χριστοῦ Χριστὸς δὲ θεοῦ
