1 Corinthians 3

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 Brothers and sisters, I couldn't speak to you as if you were guided by the Holy Spirit. I had to speak to you as if you were following the ways of the world. You aren't growing as Christ wants you to. You are still like babies.

2 The words I spoke to you were like milk, not like solid food. You weren't ready for solid food yet. And you still aren't ready for it.

3 You are still following the ways of the world. Some of you are jealous. Some of you argue. So aren't you following the ways of the world? Aren't you acting like ordinary human beings?

4 One of you says, "I follow Paul." Another says, "I follow Apollos." Aren't you acting like ordinary human beings?

5 After all, what is Apollos? And what is Paul? We are only people who serve. We helped you to believe. The Lord has given each of us our own work to do.

6 I planted the seed. Apollos watered it. But God made it grow.

7 So the one who plants is not important. The one who waters is not important. It is God who makes things grow. He is the One who is important.

8 The one who plants and the one who waters have the same purpose. The Lord will give each of us a reward for our work.

9 We work together with God. You are like God's field. You are like his building.

10 God has given me the grace to lay a foundation as a master builder. Now someone else is building on it. But each one should build carefully.

11 No one can lay any other foundation than the one that has already been laid. That foundation is Jesus Christ.

12 A person may build on it using gold, silver, jewels, wood, hay or straw.

13 But each person's work will be shown for what it is. On judgment day it will be brought to light. It will be put through fire. The fire will test how good everyone's work is.

14 If the building doesn't burn up, God will give the builder a reward for his work.

15 If the building burns up, the builder will lose everything. The builder will be saved, but only like one escaping through the flames.

16 Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple? God's Spirit lives in you.

17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. God's temple is holy. And you are that temple.

18 Don't fool yourselves. Suppose some of you think you are wise by the standards of the world. Then you should become a "fool" so that you can become wise.

19 The wisdom of this world is foolish in God's eyes. It is written, "God catches wise people in their own tricks."(Job 5:13)

20 It is also written, "The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise don't amount to anything."(Psalm 94:11)

21 So no more bragging about human beings! All things are yours.

22 That means Paul or Apollos or Peter or the world or life or death or the present or the future. All are yours.

23 You are joined to Christ and belong to him. And Christ is joined to God.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 et ego fratres non potui vobis loqui quasi spiritalibus sed quasi carnalibus tamquam parvulis in Christo

2 lac vobis potum dedi non escam nondum enim poteratis sed ne nunc quidem potestis adhuc enim estis carnales

3 cum enim sit inter vos zelus et contentio nonne carnales estis et secundum hominem ambulatis

4 cum enim quis dicit ego quidem sum Pauli alius autem ego Apollo nonne homines estis quid igitur est Apollo quid vero Paulus

5 ministri eius cui credidistis et unicuique sicut Dominus dedit

6 ego plantavi Apollo rigavit sed Deus incrementum dedit

7 itaque neque qui plantat est aliquid neque qui rigat sed qui incrementum dat Deus

8 qui plantat autem et qui rigat unum sunt unusquisque autem propriam mercedem accipiet secundum suum laborem

9 Dei enim sumus adiutores Dei agricultura estis Dei aedificatio estis

10 secundum gratiam Dei quae data est mihi ut sapiens architectus fundamentum posui alius autem superaedificat unusquisque autem videat quomodo superaedificet

11 fundamentum enim aliud nemo potest ponere praeter id quod positum est qui est Christus Iesus

12 si quis autem superaedificat supra fundamentum hoc aurum argentum lapides pretiosos ligna faenum stipulam

13 uniuscuiusque opus manifestum erit dies enim declarabit quia in igne revelabitur et uniuscuiusque opus quale sit ignis probabit

14 si cuius opus manserit quod superaedificavit mercedem accipiet

15 si cuius opus arserit detrimentum patietur ipse autem salvus erit sic tamen quasi per ignem

16 nescitis quia templum Dei estis et Spiritus Dei habitat in vobis

17 si quis autem templum Dei violaverit disperdet illum Deus templum enim Dei sanctum est quod estis vos

18 nemo se seducat si quis videtur inter vos sapiens esse in hoc saeculo stultus fiat ut sit sapiens

19 sapientia enim huius mundi stultitia est apud Deum scriptum est enim conprehendam sapientes in astutia eorum

20 et iterum Dominus novit cogitationes sapientium quoniam vanae sunt

21 itaque nemo glorietur in hominibus omnia enim vestra sunt

22 sive Paulus sive Apollo sive Cephas sive mundus sive vita sive mors sive praesentia sive futura omnia enim vestra sunt

23 vos autem Christi Christus autem Dei
