1 Corinthians 3:4-9
New American Standard Bible
4 For when (A)one person says, “I am [a]with Paul,” and another, “I am [b]with Apollos,” are you not ordinary (B)people?
5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? (C)Servants through whom you believed, even (D)as the Lord gave opportunity to each one. 6 (E)I planted, (F)Apollos watered, but (G)God was causing the growth. 7 So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth. 8 Now the one who plants and the one who waters are one; but each will (H)receive his own [c]reward according to his own labor. 9 For we are God’s (I)fellow workers; you are God’s [d](J)field, God’s (K)building.

New International Version
4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,”(A) are you not mere human beings?
5 What, after all, is Apollos?(B) And what is Paul? Only servants,(C) through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. 6 I planted the seed,(D) Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow. 7 So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor.(E) 9 For we are co-workers in God’s service;(F) you are God’s field,(G) God’s building.(H)
