New Revised Standard NRS
New International Version NIV
1 And so, brothers and sisters, I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but rather as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ.
1
Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ.
2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for solid food. Even now you are still not ready,
2
I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.
3 for you are still of the flesh. For as long as there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not of the flesh, and behaving according to human inclinations?
3
You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans?
4 For when one says, "I belong to Paul," and another, "I belong to Apollos," are you not merely human?
4
For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere human beings?
