1 And I, brothers, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal, as to the childlike in Christ.
2 I gave you milk to drink and not solid food, for ye were not yet able. But not even yet are ye able,
3 for ye are still carnal. For whereas among you is envy and strife and divisions, are ye not carnal and walk according to man?
4 For while one may say, I am of Paul, and another, I am of Apollos, are ye not carnal?
5 Who therefore is Paul and who is Apollos? But rather helpers through whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to each man.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God caused growth.
7 So then neither is he who plants anything, nor he who waters, but God who causes growth.
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, but each man will receive his own payment according to his own labor.
9 For we are co-workmen of God. Ye are a tillage of God, an edifice of God.
10 According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master builder, I laid a foundation and another man is building on it. But let each man take heed how he is building on it.
11 For no man can lay another foundation besides that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 And if any man builds upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
13 each man's work will become manifest. For the day will make it known, because it is revealed by fire. And the fire will test each man's work of what kind it is.
14 If any man's work that he built on will remain, he will receive benefit.
15 If any man's work will be burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but so as through fire.
16 Know ye not that ye are a temple of God and the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17 If any man destroys the temple of God, God will destroy this man, for the temple of God is holy, which ye are.
18 Let not one man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become foolish so that he may become wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, He who catches the wise in their craftiness,
20 and again, Lord knows the thoughts of the wise that they are vain.
21 Therefore let not one man boast in men. For all things are yours,
22 whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things coming, all are yours,
23 and ye are Christ's, and Christ is God's.
1 And I coulde not speake vnto you brethre as vnto spretuall: but as vnto carnall even as it were vnto babes in Christ.
2 I gave you mylke to drinke and not meate. For ye then were not stronge no nether yet are.
3 For ye are yet carnall. As longe verely as ther is amoge you envyige stryfe and dissencio: are ye not carnall and walke after ye manner of me?
4 As loge as one sayth I holde of Paul and another I am of Apollo are ye not carnall?
5 What is Paul? What thinge is Apollo? Only miministers are they by who ye beleved even as the Lorde gave every ma grace.
6 I have planted: Apollo watred: but god gave increace.
7 So then nether is he that planteth eny thinge nether he yt watreth: but god which gave the increace.
8 He that planteth and he that watreth are nether better then the other. Every man yet shall receave his rewarde accordynge to his laboure.
9 We are goddis labourers ye are goddis husbandrye ye are goddis byldynge.
10 Accordynge to the grace of god geven vnto me as a wyse bylder have I layde the foundacio And another bylt thero But let every ma take hede how he bildeth apo.
11 For other foundacion can no man laye then yt which is layde which is Iesus Christ.
12 Yf eny man bilde on this foundacion golde silver precious stones tymber haye or stoble:
13 every mannes worke shall appere. For the daye shall declare it and it shalbe shewed in fyre. And ye fyre shall trye euery mannes worke what it is.
14 Yf eny mannes worke yt he hath bylt apon byde he shall receave a rewarde.
15 If eny manes worke burne he shall suffre losse: but he shalbe safe him selfe: neverthelesse yet as it were thorow fyre.
16 Are ye not ware that ye are the temple of god and how that the sprete of god dwelleth in you?
17 Yf eny man defyle the temple of god him shall god destroye. For the temple of god is holy which temple ye are.
18 Let no man deceave him silfe. Yf eny man seme wyse amonge you let him be a fole in this worlde that he maye be wyse.
19 For ye wisdome of this worlde is folysshnes with god. For it is writte: he compaseth the wyse in their craftynes.
20 And agayne God knoweth the thoughtes of the wyse that they be vayne.
22 Therfore let no ma reioyce in men. For all thinges are youres whether it be Paul other Apollo other Cephas: whether it be ye worlde other lyfe other deeth whether they be present thinges or thinges to come: all are youres
23 and ye are Christes and Christ is goddis.
