3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and1 behaving like mere men?
4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
Watering, Working, Warning
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but aministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?
6 aI planted, bApollos watered, cbut God gave the increase.
7 So then aneither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, aand each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9 For awe are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are bGod’s building.
10 aAccording to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid bthe foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.
