⁹ For we are God’s ^(A)fellow workers; you are God’s ^[a](B)field, God’s ^(C)building.

¹⁰ According to ^(D)the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder ^(E)I laid a foundation, and ^(F)another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.

²⁰ having been ^(A)built on ^(B)the foundation of ^(C)the apostles and prophets, ^(D)Christ Jesus Himself being the ^(E)corner stone, ^21 (F)in whom the whole building, being joined together, is growing into ^(G)a holy ^[a]sanctuary in the Lord, ²² in whom you also are being ^(H)built together into a ^(I)dwelling of God in the Spirit.

^5 (A)you also, as living stones, ^[a]are being built up as a ^(B)spiritual house for a holy ^(C)priesthood, to ^(D)offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
