(A)Servants through whom you believed, even (B)as the Lord gave opportunity to each one. 6 (C)I planted, (D)Apollos watered, but (E)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 (F)receive his own [a]reward according to his own labor. 9 For we are God’s (G)fellow workers; you are God’s [b](H)field, God’s (I)building.
