3:1 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ:

3:2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able:

3:3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men:

3:4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are ye not carnal:

3:5 Who then is Paul, and who [is] Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man:

3:6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase:

3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase:

3:8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour:

3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God' s husbandry, [ye are] God' s building:

3:10 According 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:

3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ:

3:12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble:

3:13 Every 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:

3:14 If any man' s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward:

3:15 If any man' s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire:

3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you:

3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are:

3:18 Let 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:

3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness:

3:20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain:

3:21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your' s:

3:22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your' s:

3:23 And ye are Christ' s; and Christ [is] God' s:
