1 Corinthians 3:5-15

English Standard Version

⁵ What then is Apollos? What is Paul? ^(A)Servants through whom you believed, ^(B)as the Lord assigned to each. ^6 (C)I planted, ^(D)Apollos watered, ^(E)but God gave the growth. ⁷ So ^(F)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 ^(G)will receive his wages according to his labor. ⁹ For we are ^(H)God's fellow workers. You are God's field, ^(I)God's building.

^10 (J)According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled^[a] master builder I laid a ^(K)foundation, and ^(L)someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. ¹¹ For no one can lay a ^(M)foundation other ^(N)than that which is laid, ^(O)which is Jesus Christ. ¹² Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw— ^13 (P)each one's work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed ^(Q)by fire, and ^(R)the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. ¹⁴ If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, ^(S)he will receive a reward. ¹⁵ If anyone's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, ^(T)but only as through fire.
