| 1 ܘܐܢܐ ܐܚܝ ܠܐ ܐܫܟܚܬ ܕܐܡܠܠ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܥܡ ܪܘܚܢܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܥܡ ܦܓܪܢܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܕܠܝܠܘܕܐ ܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܀ | 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 ܚܠܒܐ ܐܫܩܝܬܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܝܗܒܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܗܫܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀ | 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 ܥܕܟܝܠ ܓܝܪ ܒܒܤܪ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܝܟܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܟܘܢ ܚܤܡܐ ܘܚܪܝܢܐ ܘܦܠܓܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܗܐ ܦܓܪܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܒܒܤܪ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀ | 3 And since there is still envy and contention among you, are you not carnal, and are you not walking according to man? |
| 4 ܡܐ ܕܐܡܪ ܓܝܪ ܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܕܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܢܐ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܦܠܘ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܗܐ ܦܓܪܢܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀ | 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 ܡܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܘ ܡܢܘ ܐܦܠܘ ܐܠܐ ܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܒܐܝܕܝܗܘܢ ܗܝܡܢܬܘܢ ܘܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܐܝܟ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܡܪܝܐ ܀ | 5 We are only the ministers of him in whom you have believed, just as the Lord has granted to each of you. |
| 6 ܐܢܐ ܢܨܒܬ ܘܐܦܠܘ ܐܫܩܝ ܐܠܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܪܒܝ ܀ | 6 I planted, Apollo watered, but God provided the growth. |
| 7 ܠܐ ܗܟܝܠ ܗܘ ܕܢܨܒ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܡܕܡ ܘܠܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܫܩܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܡܪܒܐ ܀ | 7 And so, neither he who plants, nor he who waters, is anything, but only God, who provides the growth. |
| 8 ܡܢ ܕܢܨܒ ܕܝܢ ܘܡܢ ܕܡܫܩܐ ܚܕ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܐܢܫ ܐܝܟ ܥܡܠܗ ܐܓܪܗ ܡܩܒܠ ܀ | 8 Now he who plants, and he who waters, are one. But each shall receive his proper reward, according to his labors. |
| 9 ܥܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܦܠܚܝܢܢ ܘܦܘܠܚܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܒܢܝܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܀ | 9 For we are God’s assistants. You are God’s cultivation; you are God’s construction. |
| 10 ܘܐܝܟ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܐܬܝܗܒܬ ܠܝ ܤܡܬ ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܐܪܕܟܠܐ ܚܟܝܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܠܝܗ ܒܢܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܕܝܢ ܢܚܙܐ ܐܝܟܢ ܒܢܐ ܥܠܝܗ ܀ | 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 ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܐܚܪܬܐ ܤܛܪ ܡܢ ܗܕܐ ܕܤܝܡܐ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܤܡ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܀ | 11 For no one is able to lay any other foundation, in place of that which has been laid, which is Christ Jesus. |
| 12 ܘܐܢ ܐܢܫ ܕܝܢ ܒܢܐ ܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܕܗܒܐ ܐܘ ܤܐܡܐ ܐܘ ܟܐܦܐ ܝܩܝܪܬܐ ܐܘ ܩܝܤܐ ܐܘ ܥܡܝܪܐ ܐܘ ܚܒܬܐ ܀ | 12 But if anyone builds upon this foundation, whether gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or stubble, |
| 13 ܥܒܕܐ ܕܟܠܢܫ ܡܬܓܠܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܓܝܪ ܗܘ ܓܠܐ ܠܗ ܡܛܠ ܕܒܢܘܪܐ ܡܬܓܠܐ ܘܥܒܕܗ ܕܟܠܢܫ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܢܘܪܐ ܬܦܪܫܝܘܗܝ ܀ | 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 ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܢܩܘܐ ܥܒܕܗ ܗܘ ܕܒܢܐ ܐܓܪܗ ܢܩܒܠ ܀ | 14 If anyone’s work, which he has built upon it, remains, then he will receive a reward. |
| 15 ܘܐܝܢܐ ܕܥܒܕܗ ܢܐܩܕ ܢܚܤܪ ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܢܫܬܘܙܒ ܗܟܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܢ ܢܘܪܐ ܀ | 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 ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܗܝܟܠܗ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܪܘܚܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܥܡܪܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܀ | 16 Do you not know that you are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God lives within you? |
| 17 ܘܡܢ ܕܡܚܒܠ ܗܝܟܠܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܚܒܠ ܠܗ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܝܟܠܗ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܩܕܝܫ ܗܘ ܕܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܀ | 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 ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܢܛܥܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܡܢ ܕܤܒܪ ܒܟܘܢ ܕܚܟܝܡ ܗܘ ܒܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܤܟܠܐ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܚܟܝܡܐ ܀ | 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 ܚܟܡܬܗ ܓܝܪ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܗܢܐ ܠܠܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܠܘܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܟܬܝܒ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܕܐܚܕ ܚܟܝܡܐ ܒܚܪܥܘܬܗܘܢ ܀ | 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 ܘܬܘܒ ܡܪܝܐ ܝܕܥ ܡܚܫܒܬܗܘܢ ܕܚܟܝܡܐ ܕܤܪܝܩܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܀ | 20 And again: “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.” |
| 21 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܢܫܬܒܗܪ ܒܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܓܝܪ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܗܘ ܀ | 21 And so, let no one glory in men. |
| 22 ܐܢ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܘܐܢ ܐܦܠܘ ܘܐܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܢ ܥܠܡܐ ܘܐܢ ܚܝܐ ܘܐܢ ܡܘܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܕܩܝܡܢ ܘܐܢ ܕܥܬܝܕܢ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܝܠܟܘܢ ܗܘ ܀ | 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 ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܘܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀ | 23 But you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s. |
