3:1  And I, my brethren, have not been able to speak with you as with spiritual ones but as with the carnal and as to babies in The Messiah.
3:2  I gave you milk to drink and I did not give you solid food, for you have not been able to bear it until now, neither now are you able.
3:3  For you are still in the flesh, and wherever there is among you contention and division, behold, are you not carnal? You are walking in the flesh.
3:4  For whenever each of you says, “I am of Paulus”, and another says, “I am of Apollo”, behold, are you not carnal?
3:5  For who is Paulus or who is Apollo, but Ministers by whom you have believed? And each man is according to what THE LORD JEHOVAH has given him.
3:6  I planted and Apollo watered but God made it grow.
3:7  Therefore he who plants is nothing, neither is he who waters anything, but God who gives growth.
3:8  But whoever plants and whoever waters, they are one; and a man receives wages according to his labor.
3:9  For we labor with God and you are the crop and the building of God.
3:10  And according to the grace of God given to me, I laid the foundation as a wise architect and another built upon it, and every person should pay attention to how he builds upon it.
3:11  For no man can lay another foundation than that which has been laid, which is Yeshua The Messiah.
3:12  And if a man builds on this foundation, gold or silver or precious stones, or wood, hay or stubble,
3:13  The work of every person is revealed, for that day reveals it, because the work of every person is revealed by fire, what sort it is; the fire will test it.
3:14  And whosever work shall remain shall receive his reward from The Builder.
3:15  And whosever work will burn up will suffer loss, but he shall escape, but as if by fire.
3:16  Do you not know that you are the Temple of God, and that The Spirit of God dwells within you?
3:17  Whoever destroys the Temple of God, God destroys; for the Temple of God is holy, which you are.
3:18  Let no man deceive himself; whoever among you thinks that he is wise in this world, let him become a fool that he may be wise.
3:19  For the wisdom of this world is nonsense to God, for it is written: “He has seized the wise in their craftiness.”
3:20  And again, “THE LORD JEHOVAH knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are worthless.”
3:21  Therefore, let no man glory in the children of men, for everything is yours,
3:22  Whether Paul, or Apollo, or Kaypha, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things future; everything is yours.
3:23  And you are The Messiah's and The Messiah is God's.
