1 Corinthians 3:5-9

Expanded Bible

⁵ ·Is Apollos important? No! [^LWhat, then, is Apollos?] ·Is Paul important? No! [^LAnd what is Paul?] We are only servants of God who helped you believe. Each one of us did the work the Lord gave us to do. ⁶ I planted the seed, and Apollos watered it. But God is the One who made it grow. ⁷ So the one who plants is not ·important [^Lanything], and the one who waters is not ·important [^Lanything], but only God, who makes things grow. ⁸ The one who plants and the one who waters ·have the same purpose [or are equal; ^Lare one], and each will ·be rewarded [receive wages] for his own work. ⁹ We are ·God’s workers, working together [coworkers belonging to God; coworkers in God’s service]; you are God’s ·farm [field], God’s building.
