1 Brothers, I could not address you⁺ as spiritual, but as worldly—as infants in Christ (the Anointed One). 2 I gave you⁺ milk, not solid food, for you⁺ were not yet ready for solid food. In fact, you⁺ are still not ready, 3 for you⁺ are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and dissension among you⁺, are you⁺ not worldly? Are you not walking in the way of man? 4 For when one of you says, “I follow Paul (humble), and another, “I follow Apollos (of Alexandria), are you⁺ not mere men? 5 What then is Apollos (of Alexandria)? And what is Paul (humble)? They are servants {diakonoi} through whom you⁺ believed (had faith), as the Lord {Kyrios} has assigned to each his role. 6 I planted the seed and Apollos (of Alexandria) watered it, but God {Theos} made it grow. 7 So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God {Theos}, who makes things grow. 8 He who plants and he who waters are one in purpose \are one/, and each will be rewarded according to his own labor. 9 For we are God’s {Theou} fellow workers; you⁺ are God’s field, God’s building. 1 Corinthians 3:1-9, Berean Annotated Bible.
