chapter three

¹and I, brothers, could not speak to you (PL) as to spiritual (men) but as to fleshly, as to suckling infants in the Moshiach.

²milk did I you (PL) give to drink, not any (solid) food; because you (PL) have it not be able to tolerate; and even now can you (PL) it still also not to tolerate;

³because you (PL) are still all carnal; because all time there is here among you (PL) envy and discord, are you (PL) then not carnal and lives as (ordinary) men?

⁴because when one says: I am of Paul; and an other: I am of Apollos: are you (PL) (then) not (ordinary) men?

⁵what is then Apollos? and what Paul? only servants, through whom you (PL) had believed; and every one, as the L-rd has him given.

⁶I did plant, Apollos did water; Hashem however did make (it) grow.

⁷so around is already the planter nothing, and the waterer nothing; but Hashem, who makes grow.

⁸the planter and the waterer are one; and each one will received his own reward according to his own labor.

⁹because we are Hashem's co-workers: Hashem's ploughfield, Hashem's building are you (PL).

¹⁰according to the grace of Hashem, which is me given become, did I as a wise master builders laid a foundation; an another however builds (thereon). let therefore everyone attention give, how he does thereon build.

¹¹because anyone can not lay any other foundation, except the one, which (is) laid (already), which is Yehoshua the Moshiach.

¹²if however someone builds on the this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,

¹³will everyone's work revealed become; because the Day will it make (obvious) clear, because it will itself be revealed through fire; and the fire itself will test everyone's work, of what for a sort it is.

¹⁴will (if) anyone's work, which he has thereon built, remain (standing), will he received a reward.

¹⁵will (if) anyone's work burned become, will he to suffer loss; himself however will he saved become; yet as through fire.

¹⁶(question) know you (PL) (then) not, that you (PL) are Hashem's Heikhal, and that the Spirit of Hashem dwells in you (PL)?

¹⁷if someone destroys Hashem's Heikhal, will Hashem him destroy; because Hashem's Heikhal is holy, and you (PL) are it.

¹⁸let anyone not deceive. if someone among you (PL) thinks, that he is a wise one in the world, shall he become a fool, so that he shall become wise.

¹⁹because the wisdom of the this one world is foolishness with Hashem; because it stands written: he catches the wise ones in their cunning; (Job 5, 13.)

²⁰and again: the L-rd know the thoughts of the wise ones, that they are futile. (Psalms 94, 11.)

²¹let himself therefore anyone not boast in man. because all is yours,

²²whether Paul, or Apollos, or Kefa, or the world, or the life, or the death, or the present, or the future: all belongs to you (PL),

²³and you (PL) to the Moshiach, and the Moshiach to Hashem.
