1 And I coulde not speake vnto you brethren, as vnto spirituall, but as vnto carnall [eue] as vnto babes in Christe
2 I gaue you mylke to drynke, and not meate: For ye then were not stronge, neither are ye as yet
3 For ye are carnal. Seing then, there is among you enuying, & stryfe, and sectes, are ye not carnall, and walke as men
4 For whyle one sayth, I am of Paul, and another, I am of Apollo, are ye not carnall
5 What is Paul? what is Apollo? Only ministers are they by whom ye beleued, euen as the Lorde gaue to euery man
6 I haue planted, Apollo watered: but God gaue the encrease
7 So then, neither is he that planteth any thyng, neither he that watreth: but God that geueth the encrease
8 He that planteth, & he that watreth, are one, and euery man shal receaue his rewarde accordyng to his labour
9 For we together are Gods labourers, ye are Gods husbandrie [ye are] Gods buyldyng
10 Accordyng to the grace of God geuen vnto me, as a wise maister builder haue I layde the foundation, and another buyldeth theron. But let euery man take heede howe he buyldeth vpon
11 For other foundation can no man lay, then that that is layde, which is Iesus Christe
12 If any man buylde on this foundation, golde, syluer, precious stones, tymber, haye [or] stubble
13 Euery mans worke shal appeare. The day shall declare it, because it shalbe reuealed by the fire: And the fire shall trie euery mans worke what it is
14 If any mans worke that he hath built vpon abyde, he shall receaue a reward
15 If any mans worke burne, he shall suffer losse, but he shalbe safe hym selfe: neuertheles, yet as it were through fire
16 Knowe ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the spirite of God dwelleth in you
17 If any man defyle the temple of God, hym shall God destroy. For the temple of God is holy, which [temple] ye are
18 Let no man deceaue him selfe. Yf any man among you seeme to be wise in this worlde, let hym be a foole, that he may be wyse
19 For the wisedome of this worlde, is foolishnesse with God. For it is writte: He compasseth the wise in their own craftynesse
20 And agayne The Lorde knoweth the thoughtes of the wyse, that they be vayne
21 Therfore, let no man reioyce in men: For all thynges are yours
22 Whether it be Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, either the worlde, either lyfe, or death, whether they be present thinges, or thynges to come, all are yours
23 And ye are Christes, and Christe (is) Gods
