Ad Corinthios I 3

VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Et ego, fratres, non potui vobis loqui quasi spiritualibus, sed quasi carnalibus. Tamquam parvulis in Christo,	1 And so, brothers, I was not able to speak to you as if to those who are spiritual, but rather as if to those who are carnal. For you are like infants in Christ.
2 lac vobis potum dedi, non escam : nondum enim poteratis : sed nec nunc quidem potestis : adhuc enim carnales estis.	2 I gave you milk to drink, not solid food. For you were not yet able. And indeed, even now, you are not able; for you are still carnal.
3 Cum enim sit inter vos zelus, et contentio : nonne carnales estis, et secundum hominem ambulatis ?	3 And since there is still envy and contention among you, are you not carnal, and are you not walking according to man?
4 Cum enim quis dicat : Ego quidem sum Pauli ; alius autem : Ego Apollo : nonne homines estis ? Quid igitur est Apollo ? quid vero Paulus ?	4 For if one says, “Certainly, I am of Paul,” while another says, “I am of Apollo,” are you not men? But what is Apollo, and what is Paul?
5 ministri ejus, cui credidistis, et unicuique sicut Dominus dedit.	5 We are only the ministers of him in whom you have believed, just as the Lord has granted to each of you.
6 Ego plantavi, Apollo rigavit : sed Deus incrementum dedit.	6 I planted, Apollo watered, but God provided the growth.
7 Itaque neque qui plantat est aliquid, neque qui rigat : sed qui incrementum dat, Deus.	7 And so, neither he who plants, nor he who waters, is anything, but only God, who provides the growth.
8 Qui autem plantat, et qui rigat, unum sunt. Unusquisque autem propriam mercedem accipiet, secundum suum laborem.	8 Now he who plants, and he who waters, are one. But each shall receive his proper reward, according to his labors.
9 Dei enim sumus adjutores : Dei agricultura estis, Dei ædificatio estis.	9 For we are God’s assistants. You are God’s cultivation; you are God’s construction.
10 Secundum gratiam Dei, quæ data est mihi, ut sapiens architectus fundamentum posui : alius autem superædificat. Unusquisque autem videat quomodo superædificet.	10 According to the grace of God, which has been given to me, I have laid the foundation like a wise architect. But another builds upon it. So then, let each one be careful how he builds upon it.
11 Fundamentum enim aliud nemo potest ponere præter id quod positum est, quod est Christus Jesus.	11 For no one is able to lay any other foundation, in place of that which has been laid, which is Christ Jesus.
12 Si quis autem superædificat super fundamentum hoc, aurum, argentum, lapides pretiosos, ligna, fœnum, stipulam,	12 But if anyone builds upon this foundation, whether gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or stubble,
13 uniuscujusque opus manifestum erit : dies enim Domini declarabit, quia in igne revelabitur : et uniuscujusque opus quale sit, ignis probabit.	13 each one’s work shall be made manifest. For the day of the Lord shall declare it, because it will be revealed by fire. And this fire will test each one’s work, as to what kind it is.
14 Si cujus opus manserit quod superædificavit, mercedem accipiet.	14 If anyone’s work, which he has built upon it, remains, then he will receive a reward.
15 Si cujus opus arserit, detrimentum patietur : ipse autem salvus erit, sic tamen quasi per ignem.	15 If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer its loss, but he himself will still be saved, but only as through fire.
16 Nescitis quia templum Dei estis, et Spiritus Dei habitat in vobis ?	16 Do you not know that you are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God lives within you?
17 Si quis autem templum Dei violaverit, disperdet illum Deus. Templum enim Dei sanctum est, quod estis vos.	17 But if anyone violates the Temple of God, God will destroy him. For the Temple of God is holy, and you are that Temple.
18 Nemo se seducat : si quis videtur inter vos sapiens esse in hoc sæculo, stultus fiat ut sit sapiens.	18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become foolish, so that he may be truly wise.
19 Sapientia enim hujus mundi, stultitia est apud Deum. Scriptum est enim : Comprehendam sapientes in astutia eorum.	19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. And so it has been written: “I will catch the wise in their own astuteness.”
20 Et iterum : Dominus novit cogitationes sapientium quoniam vanæ sunt.	20 And again: “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.”
21 Nemo itaque glorietur in hominibus.	21 And so, let no one glory in men.
22 Omnia enim vestra sunt, sive Paulus, sive Apollo, sive Cephas, sive mundus, sive vita, sive mors, sive præsentia, sive futura : omnia enim vestra sunt :	22 For all is yours: whether Paul, or Apollo, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or the present, or the future. Yes, all is yours.
23 vos autem Christi : Christus autem Dei.	23 But you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
