Goodspeed(i)
5 What is Apollos? Or what is Paul? Just servants through whom you came to have faith, as the Lord gave each of us opportunity.
6 I did the planting, Apollos the watering, but it was God who made the plants grow.
7 So neither the planter nor the waterer counts for anything, but only God who makes the plants grow.
8 The planter and the waterer are all one, though each of us will be paid for his own work.
9 For we are fellow-laborers for God, and you are God's farm, God's building.
10 Like an expert builder, I laid a foundation, as God commissioned me to do, and now someone else is building upon it. But let everyone be careful how he does so.
11 For no one can lay any other foundation than the one that is laid, that is, Jesus Christ himself.
12 And whether one uses gold or silver or costly stone in building on the foundation, or wood or hay or straw,
13 the quality of everyone's work will appear, for the Day will show it. For the Day will break in fire, and the fire will test the quality of everyone's work.
14 If what a man has built on the foundation stands the test, he will have his pay.
15 If a man's work is burned up, he must stand the loss, though he himself will be saved, but as one who has passed through the fire.
