1 Corinthians 3:11-21 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

11. For other foundation can no man lay besides that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

12. Now if any one build upon this foundation, gold, silver, precious stones, wood, grass, straw,

13. the 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.

14. If the work of any one which he has built upon the foundation shall abide, he shall receive a reward.

15. If the work of any one shall be consumed, he shall suffer loss, but he shall be saved, but so as through the fire.

16. Do ye not know that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?

17. If any one corrupt the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.

18. Let no one deceive himself: if any one thinks himself to be wise among you in this world, let him become foolish, that he may be wise.

19. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He who takes the wise in their craftiness.

20. And again, The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise that they are vain.

21. So that let no one boast in men; for all things are yours.
