1 Corinthians 3:8-23 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

8. And he who plants and he who waters are one, and each one shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

9. For we are fellow workers of Elohim, you are the field of Elohim, the building of Elohim.

10. According to the favour of Elohim which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But each one should look how he builds on it.

11. For no one is able to lay any other foundation except that which is laid, which is יהושע Messiah.

12. And if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,

13. each one’s work shall be revealed, for the day shall show it up, because it is revealed by fire. And the fire shall prove the work of each one, what sort it is.

14. If anyone’s work remains, which he has built on, he shall receive a reward.

15. If anyone’s work is burned, he shall suffer loss, but he himself shall be saved, but so as through fire.

16. Do you not know that you are a Dwelling Place of Elohim and that the Spirit of Elohim dwells in you?

17. If anyone destroys the Dwelling Place of Elohim, Elohim shall destroy him. For the Dwelling Place of Elohim is set-apart, which you are.

18. Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become foolish, so that he might become wise.

19. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with Elohim. For it has been written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness,”

20. and again, “יהוה knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are worthless.”

21. So then, let no one boast in men, for all belongs to you,

22. whether Sha’ul or Apollos or Kĕpha, or the world, or life, or death, or the present or the future – all belongs to you.

23. And you belong to Messiah, and Messiah belongs to Elohim.
