1 Korinterne 3

1 Og jeg, Brødre! kunde ikke tale med Eder, som med Aandelige, men som med Kjødelige, som med Børn i Christus.2 Jeg gav Eder Melk at drikke, og ikke haard mad; thi da kunde I end ikke taale den, ja, I kunne endnu ikke;3 thi I ere endnu kjødelige. Efterdi der er Nid og Kiv og Tvedragt iblandt Eder, ere I da ikke kjødelige, og omgaaes efter menneskelig Viis?4 Naar En siger: jeg er Paulus', men en anden: jeg er Apollos', ere I da ikke kjødelige?5 Hvo er da Paulus? og hvo er Apollos? uden Tjenere, ved hvilke I bleve troende, og det, eftersom Herren har givet enhver.6 Jeg plantede, Apollos vandede men Gud gav Væxt.7 Saa er nu hverken den Noget, som planter, ikke heller den, som vander, men Gud, som giver Væxt.8 Den, som planter, og den, som vander, ere eet; men hver skal faae sin egen Løn efter sit eget Arbeide.9 Thi vi ere Guds Medarbeidere; I ere Guds Ager, Guds Bygning.10 Jeg lagde Grundvolden som en viis Bygmester, efter den Guds Naade, som mig er given, men en Anden bygger derpaa; hver see til, hvorledes han bygger.11 Thi ingen kan lægge anden Grundvold end den, som lagt er, hvilken er Jesus Christus;12 men dersom Nogen bygger paa denne Grundvold Guld, Sølv, dyrebare Stene, træ, hø, straa,13 da skal hvers Gjerning blive aabenbar; thi Dagen skal gjøre det klart, ved Ild skal det aabenbares, og Ilden skal prøve, hvordan hvers Gjerning er.14 Dersom Nogens gjerning, som han byggede derpaa, bliver fast, da skal han faae Løn;15 dersom Nogens Gjerning bliver opbrændt, da skal han lide Skade; men han selv skal blive frelst, dog som igjennem Ild.16 Vide I ikke, at I ere Guds Tempel, og Guds Aand boer i Eder?17 Dersom Nogen fordærver Guds Tempel, han skal Gud fordærve; thi Guds Tempel er helligt, hvilket I ere.18 Ingen bedrage sig selv! dersom Nogen lader sig tykkes at være viis iblandt Eder i denne Verden, han vorde en Daare, at han kan vorde viis.19 Thi denne Verdens Viisdom er Daarlighed hos Gud, som skrevet staar: han er den, som griber de Vise i deres Trædskhed;20 og atter: Herren kjende de Vises Tanker, at de ere forfængelige.21 Derfor rose Ingen sig af Mennesker, thi alle Ting ere Eders;22 være sig Paulus, eller Apollos, eller Kephas, eller Verden, eller Liv, eller Død, eller det Nærværende, elller det Tilkommende; alle Ting ere Eders;23 men I ere Christi, men Christus Guds.

1 Corinthians 3

Immaturity and Self-deception

1 So, brothers and sisters,t I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but instead as people of the flesh,t as infants in Christ.2 I fed you milk,s not solid food, for you were not yet ready. In fact, you are still not ready,3 for you are still influenced by the flesh.t For since there is still jealousy and dissension among you, are you not influenced by the flesh and behaving like unregenerate people?t

4 For whenever someone says, “I am with Paul,” or “I am with Apollos,” are you not merely human?t
5 What is Apollos, really? Or what is Paul? Servants through whom you came to believe, and each of us in the ministry the Lord gave us.t6 I planted,s Apollos watered, but God caused it to grow.7 So neither the one who plants counts for anything,t nor the one who waters, but God who causes the growth.8 The one who plants and the one who waters work as one,t but each will receive his reward according to his work.9 We are coworkers belonging to God.t You are God’s field, God’s building.10 According to the grace of God given to me, like a skilled master-builder I laid a foundation, but someone else builds on it. And each one must be careful how he builds.11 For no one can lay any foundation other than what is being laid, which is Jesus Christ.12 If anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw,s13 each builder’st work will be plainly seen, for the Dayts will make it clear, because it will be revealed by fire. And the firess will test what kind of work each has done.14 If what someone has built survives, he will receive a reward.

15 If someone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss.t He himself will be saved, but only as through fire.
16 Do you not know that you are God’s temples and that God’s Spirit lives in you?

17 If someone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him. For God’s temple is holy, which is what you are.
18 Guard against self-deception, each of you.t If someone among you thinks he is wise in this age, let him become foolish so that he can become wise.19 For the wisdom of this age is foolishness with God. As it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness.”s20 And again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.”s21 So then, no more boasting about mere mortals!t For everything belongs to you,22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future. Everything belongs to you,

23 and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
