⁵Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each. ⁶I have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase. ⁷So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase. ⁸But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. ⁹For we are God’s fellow-workmen; ye are God’s husbandry, God’s building. ¹⁰According to the grace of God which has been given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation, but another builds upon it. But let each see how he builds upon it.

¹¹For other foundation can no man lay besides that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. ¹²Now if any one build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw, ¹³the work of each shall be made manifest; for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire shall try the work of each what it is. ¹⁴If the work of any one which he has built upon the foundation shall abide, he shall receive a reward. ¹⁵If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but he shall be saved, but so as through the fire.

Read in Logos

1 Corinthians 3:9: For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building.
