1 Corinthians 3:5-9
New American Standard Bible
5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? (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.

1 Corinthians 3:5-9
New Living Translation
5 After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God’s servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. 6 I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. 7 It’s not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What’s important is that God makes the seed grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. 9 For we are both God’s workers. And you are God’s field. You are God’s building.
