1 Corinthians 3:1-9

CEB

NRS

1 Brothers and sisters, I couldn't talk to you like spiritual people but like unspiritual people, like babies in Christ.
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.
2 I gave you milk to drink instead of solid food, because you weren't up to it yet.
2 I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for solid food. Even now you are still not ready,
3 Now you are still not up to it because you are still unspiritual. When jealousy and fighting exist between you, aren't you unspiritual and living by human standards?
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?
4 When someone says, "I belong to Paul," and someone else says, "I belong to Apollos," aren't you acting like people without the Spirit?
4 For when one says, "I belong to Paul," and another, "I belong to Apollos," are you not merely human?
5 After all, what is Apollos? What is Paul? They are servants who helped you to believe. Each one had a role given to them by the Lord:
5 What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants through whom you came to believe, as the Lord assigned to each.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God made it grow.
6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth.
7 Because of this, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but the only one who is anything is God who makes it grow.
7 So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.
8 The one who plants and the one who waters work together, but each one will receive their own reward for their own labor.
8 The one who plants and the one who waters have a common purpose, and each will receive wages according to the labor of each.
9 We are God's coworkers, and you are God's field, God's building.
9 For we are God's servants, working together; you are God's field, God's building.
