哥林多前书 3
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
不可分派結黨
3 弟兄們，我從前對你們說話，還不能把你們看作屬靈的人，只能看作屬肉體的人，看作在基督裡的嬰孩。 2 我餵給你們吃的是奶，不是飯，因為那時你們不能吃，就是現在還是不能， 3 因為你們仍然是屬肉體的。在你們當中既然有嫉妒紛爭，你們不還是屬肉體，照著世人的方式而行嗎？ 4 有人說“我是保羅派的”，又有人說“我是亞波羅派的”，你們不是和世人一樣嗎？ 5 亞波羅算甚麼？保羅算甚麼？我們不過是 神的僕人，你們藉著我們信了主；按著主所賜給各人的， 6 我栽種了，亞波羅澆灌了，唯有 神使它生長。 7 所以，栽種的算不得甚麼，澆灌的也算不得甚麼，只在乎那使它生長的 神。 8 栽種的和澆灌的都是一樣，只是各人要照著自己的勞苦得著自己的報酬。 9 我們是 神的同工，你們是 神的田地， 神的房屋。
10 我照著 神賜給我的恩典，就像一個聰明的工程師，立好了根基，別人在上面建造。各人要注意怎樣在上面建造， 11 因為除了那已經立好的根基以外，沒有人能立別的根基。那根基就是耶穌基督。 12 如果有人用金、銀、寶石、草、木、禾稭，在這根基上建造， 13 各人的工程將來必要顯露，因為那日子必把它顯明出來。有火要把它顯露出來，那火要考驗各人的工程是怎樣的。 14 如果有人在這根基上建造的工程存得住，他就要得到賞賜； 15 如果有人的工程被燒毀，他就要受虧損；自己卻要得救，只是要像從火裡經過一樣。 16 難道不知道你們是 神的殿， 神的靈住在你們裡面嗎？ 17 如果有人毀壞 神的殿， 神必要毀壞這人，因為 神的殿是聖潔的，這殿就是你們。
18 誰也不要自欺。如果你們當中有人以為自己在這世代裡是有智慧的，他就應該變為愚笨，好讓他有智慧。 19 因為這世界的智慧，在 神看來是愚笨的，如經上所記：
“他使有智慧的人中了自己的詭計。”
20 又說：
“主知道智慧人的意念是虛妄的。”
21 所以，誰都不可拿人來誇耀，因為一切都是你們的。 22 無論是保羅，是亞波羅，是磯法，是世界，是生，是死，是現在的事，是將來的事，都是你們的。 23 你們是屬基督的，基督是屬 神的。

English Standard Version
Divisions in the Church
3 But I, brothers,[a] could not address you as (A)spiritual people, but as (B)people of the flesh, as (C)infants in Christ. 2 (D)I fed you with milk, not solid food, for (E)you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, 3 for you are still of the flesh. For while there is (F)jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way? 4 For (G)when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” (H)are you not being merely human?
5 What then is Apollos? What is Paul? (I)Servants through whom you believed, (J)as the Lord assigned to each. 6 (K)I planted, (L)Apollos watered, (M)but God gave the growth. 7 So (N)neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. 8 He who plants and he who waters are one, and each (O)will receive his wages according to his labor. 9 For we are (P)God's fellow workers. You are God's field, (Q)God's building.
10 (R)According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled[b] master builder I laid a (S)foundation, and (T)someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. 11 For no one can lay a (U)foundation other (V)than that which is laid, (W)which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw— 13 (X)each one's work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed (Y)by fire, and (Z)the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. 14 If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, (AA)he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, (AB)but only as through fire.
16 (AC)Do you not know that you[c] are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? 17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For (AD)God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.
18 (AE)Let no one deceive himself. (AF)If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 19 For (AG)the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, (AH)“He catches the wise in their craftiness,” 20 and again, (AI)“The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” 21 So (AJ)let no one boast in men. For (AK)all things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours, 23 and (AL)you are Christ's, and (AM)Christ is God's.

1 Corinthians 3
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 3
You Are Still Infants in Christ. 1 Brethren, I could not talk to you as spiritual people, but as worldly, as infants in Christ. 2 I fed you with milk, rather than with solid food that you were not ready to digest. Indeed, even now you are still not ready to receive it, 3 for you are still of the flesh.
As long as jealousy and rivalry continue among you, are you not of the flesh and acting as mere mortals? 4 Whenever someone says, “I belong to Paul,” and another asserts, “I belong to Apollos,” are you not acting in a merely human fashion?
Missionaries and Servants of Christ[a]
God’s Coworkers. 5 What then is Apollos? What is Paul? We are only servants through whom you have come to believe, as the Lord assigned each to accomplish. 6 I planted the seed, and Apollos watered it, but God caused it to grow.
7 Therefore, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is of any importance but only God who causes the growth. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters have a common end, and each will be rewarded in accordance with his labor. 9 For we are God’s coworkers; you are God’s field, God’s building.
10 By the grace that God has given to me, I laid a foundation like a skilled master builder, and someone else is building on that foundation. But each one must be careful how he builds on it. 11 For no one can lay any foundation other than the one that has already been laid, namely, Jesus Christ.
12 Now if anyone builds on that foundation with gold, silver, and precious stones, or with wood, hay, and straw, 13 the work of each person will come to light. For the Day[b] will disclose it, because it will be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the worth of each person’s work 14 If what has been built survives, the builder will be rewarded. 15 If it burns down, that person will suffer loss. The person will be saved, though only by passing through fire.[c]
16 You Belong to Christ. Do you not realize that you are God’s temple, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person. For the temple of God is holy, and you are that temple.
18 Let no one delude himself. If anyone among you considers himself to be wise by worldly standards, he must become a fool in order to be truly wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. It is written,
“He catches the wise in their own craftiness,”
20 and again,
“The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise,
that they are futile.”
21 And so, let no one boast about human beings. For everything belongs to you, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, the world or life or death, the present or the future. All belong to you, 23 and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
Footnotes
- 1 Corinthians 3:5 The apostles are not inventors of foreign mysteries and strange secrets. They are sent to build up the community of God, and are therefore subject to the Lord’s judgment. This is one of the main texts in which Paul gives a glimpse of how he understood his personal mission.
- 1 Corinthians 3:13 The Day: the day of judgment—to the joy of the righteous and the gloom of the wicked. Fire: an element that destroys but also purifies.
- 1 Corinthians 3:15 Many theologians see in this verse an implicit reference to purgatory.
