1 Corinto 3
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Mga Lingkod ng Diyos
3 Mga kapatid, hindi ko kayo makausap bilang mga taong nagtataglay ng Espiritu. Kailangang kausapin ko kayo bilang mga taong namumuhay pa ayon sa laman at mga sanggol pa sa pananampalataya kay Cristo. 2 Gatas(A) ang ibinigay ko sa inyo noon at hindi matigas na pagkain, sapagkat hindi ninyo kaya iyon. Subalit hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ninyo kaya, 3 sapagkat nananaig pa sa inyo ang laman. Ang inyong pag-iinggitan at pag-aaway-away ay palatandaan na makasanlibutan pa kayo at namumuhay ayon sa laman. 4 Kapag(B) sinasabi ng isa, “Ako'y kay Pablo,” at ng iba, “Ako'y kay Apolos,” hindi ba't palatandaan iyan na kayo'y namumuhay pa ayon sa laman?
5 Sino ba si Apolos at sino si Pablo? Kami'y mga lingkod lamang ng Diyos na kinasangkapan niya upang akayin kayo sa pananampalataya kay Cristo. Ginawa lamang ng bawat isa sa amin ang tungkuling ibinigay ng Panginoon. 6 Ako(C) ang nagtanim, si Apolos ang nagdilig, subalit ang Diyos ang nagpatubo at nagpalago. 7 Hindi ang nagtatanim o nagdidilig ang mahalaga kundi ang Diyos, sapagkat siya ang nagpapatubo at nagpapalago. 8 Ang nagtatanim at ang nagdidilig ay parehong manggagawa lamang, at bawat isa'y tatanggap ng gantimpala ayon sa kanyang pagsisikap. 9 Kami'y kapwa manggagawa ng Diyos at kayo ang kanyang bukirin.
Kayo rin ay gusali ng Diyos. 10 Ayon sa kagandahang-loob ng Diyos sa akin, inilagay ko ang pundasyon, tulad ng isang mahusay na tagapagtayo. Iba naman ang nagpapatuloy sa pagtatayo ng gusali. Ngunit dapat maging maingat ang bawat nagtatayo, 11 sapagkat wala nang ibang pundasyong maaaring ilagay maliban sa nailagay na, walang iba kundi si Jesu-Cristo. 12 May nagtatayo na gumagamit ng ginto, pilak, o mahahalagang bato; mayroon namang gumagamit ng kahoy, damo, o dayami. 13 Makikilala ang uri ng gawa ng bawat isa sa Araw ng Paghuhukom sapagkat mahahayag sa pamamagitan ng apoy kung anong uri ang ginawa ng bawat isa. 14 Kung ang itinayo sa ibabaw ng pundasyon ay hindi masunog, tatanggap ng gantimpala ang nagtayo noon. 15 Ngunit kung masunog naman, mawawalan siya ng gantimpala. Gayunman, maliligtas siya, kaya lang ay para siyang nagdaan sa apoy.
16 Hindi(D) ba ninyo alam na kayo'y templo ng Diyos at naninirahan sa inyo ang kanyang Espiritu? 17 Paparusahan ng Diyos ang sinumang magwasak ng templo niya. Sapagkat banal ang templo ng Diyos, at kayo ang templong iyan.
18 Huwag dayain ninuman ang kanyang sarili. Kung may nag-aakalang siya'y matalino ayon sa sanlibutang ito, aminin niyang siya'y mangmang upang maging tunay na marunong. 19 Sapagkat(E) ang karunungan ng sanlibutang ito ay kamangmangan sa paningin ng Diyos. Gaya ng nasusulat, “Ginagamit niya ang katusuhan ng mga marurunong para mabitag sila.” 20 Gayundin,(F) “Batid ng Panginoon na ang iniisip ng marurunong ay walang kabuluhan.” 21 Kaya't huwag ipagmalaki ninuman na siya'y tagasunod ng sinuman, sapagkat ang lahat ay para sa inyo: 22 si Pablo, si Apolos, at si Pedro, ang sanlibutang ito, ang buhay, ang kamatayan, ang kasalukuyan, at ang hinaharap; lahat ng ito'y para sa inyo. 23 At kayo'y para kay Cristo, at si Cristo nama'y para sa Diyos.
1 Corinthians 3
King James Version
3 And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2 I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3 For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
6 I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
8 Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.
10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's;
22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your's;
23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
1 Corinthians 3
New King James Version
Sectarianism Is Carnal
3 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to (A)babes in Christ. 2 I fed you with (B)milk and not with solid food; (C)for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; 3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and [a]behaving like mere men? 4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
Watering, Working, Warning
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but (D)ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one? 6 (E)I planted, (F)Apollos watered, (G)but God gave the increase. 7 So then (H)neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase. 8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, (I)and each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9 For (J)we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are (K)God’s building. 10 (L)According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid (M)the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than (N)that which is laid, (O)which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one’s work will become clear; for the Day (P)will declare it, because (Q)it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
16 (R)Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 If anyone [b]defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.
Avoid Worldly Wisdom
18 (S)Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, (T)“He catches the wise in their own craftiness”; 20 and again, (U)“The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” 21 Therefore let no one boast in men. For (V)all things are yours: 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come—all are yours. 23 And (W)you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
