1But I, brothers,[1] could not address you as spiritual people, but as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ. (羅7:14; 林前2:6; 林前2:14; 林前2:15; 來5:13)2I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, (约16:12; 來5:12; 彼前2:2)3for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way? (羅13:13; 林前1:11; 林前11:18; 加5:19)4For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not being merely human? (林前1:12; 林前3:3)5What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, as the Lord assigned to each. (羅12:6; 林后3:3; 林后6:4; 弗3:7; 西1:25)6I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. (徒18:4; 徒18:27; 林前4:15; 林前9:1; 林前15:1; 林前15:10; 林后10:14; 西1:18)7So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. (林后12:11; 加2:6; 加6:3)8He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according to his labor. (太16:27; 羅2:6; 林前3:14; 林前4:5; 林前15:58; 加6:4; 约二1:8)9For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building. (诗127:1; 可16:20; 林前3:16; 林后6:1; 弗2:20; 西2:7)10According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled[2] master builder I laid a foundation, and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how he builds upon it. (羅12:3; 羅15:20; 林前3:11; 林前4:15; 彼后3:15; 启21:14)11For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. (赛28:16; 林后11:4; 加1:6; 弗2:20)12Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw—13each one’s work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. (林前3:15; 林前4:5; 帖后1:8; 彼前1:7)14If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward. (林前3:8)15If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss, though he himself will be saved, but only as through fire. (诗66:12; 赛43:2; 犹1:23)16Do you not know that you[3] are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you? (林前6:19; 林后6:16; 弗2:21)17If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple. (林后7:1)18Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. (赛5:21; 耶8:8; 林前8:2; 加6:3)19For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness,” (伯5:13; 林前1:20)20and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” (诗94:11)21So let no one boast in men. For all things are yours, (羅8:28; 林前1:12; 林前3:4; 林前4:6)22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours,23and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s. (林前11:3; 林后10:7; 加3:29)
