¹And I, brethren, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly — as to babes in Christ;

¹Ka mina, vennad, ei võinud rääkida teile kui vaimsetele, vaid pidin rääkima kui lihalikele, nagu väetitele lastele Kristuses.

²with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for ye were not yet able, but not even yet are ye now able,

²Ma jootsin teile piima ega andnud tahket rooga, sest seda te ei oleks veel talunud. Kuid ega te nüüdki veel talu,

³for yet ye are fleshly, for where [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not fleshly, and in the manner of men do walk?

³sest et olete ju alles lihalikud. Kui teie seas on kiivust ja riidu - eks te siis ole lihalikud ja eks te käitu inimlikult?

⁴for when one may say, `I, indeed, am of Paul;` and another, `I — of Apollos;` are ye not fleshly?

⁴Sest kui üks ütleb: 'Mina olen Pauluse poolel!', teine aga: 'Mina Apollose!' - eks te siis ole nagu inimesed ikka?

⁵Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but ministrants through whom ye did believe, and to each as the Lord gave?

⁵Mis on siis Apollos? Mis on Paulus? Teenrid, kelle kaudu te olete saanud usklikuks, nõnda nagu Issand igaühele on andnud.

⁶I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;

⁶Mina istutasin, Apollos kastis, kuid Jumal laskis kasvada.

⁷so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth — God;

⁷Nõnda siis ei ole midagi see, kes istutab, ega see, kes kastab, vaid Jumal, kes kasvatab.

⁸and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each his own reward shall receive, according to his own labour,

⁸Istutaja ja kastja teevad sama tööd, aga kumbki saab oma palga vastavalt oma vaevanägemisele.

⁹for of God we are fellow-workmen; God`s tillage, God`s building ye are.

⁹Sest Jumala kaastöölised oleme meie; Jumala põllumaa, Jumala hoone olete teie.

¹⁰According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, a foundation I have laid, and another doth build on [it],

¹⁰Mulle antud Jumala armu järgi olen ma kui tark hooneehitaja rajanud aluse, aga teine ehitab sellele. Igaüks vaadaku siis, kuidas ta ehitab!

¹¹for other foundation no one is able to lay except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;

¹¹Jah, teist alust ei saa keegi rajada selle kõrvale, mis on juba olemas - see on Jeesus Kristus.

¹²and if any one doth build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw —

¹²Kas keegi ehitab sellele alusele hoone kullast, hõbedast, kalliskividest, puudest, heintest või õlgedest -

¹³of each the work shall become manifest, for the day shall declare [it], because in fire it is revealed, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire shall prove;

¹³kord saab igaühe töö avalikuks. Issanda päev teeb selle teatavaks, sest see ilmub tules, ja tuli katsub läbi igaühe töö, missugune see on.

¹⁴if of any one the work doth remain that he built on [it], a wage he shall receive;

¹⁴Kui kellegi töö, mis ta on ehitanud, jääb püsima, siis ta saab palga.

¹⁵if of any the work is burned up, he shall suffer loss; and himself shall be saved, but so as through fire.

¹⁵Kui kellegi töö põleb ära, siis ta saab kahju, aga ta ise päästetakse otsekui läbi tule.

¹⁶have ye not known that ye are a sanctuary of God, and the Spirit of God doth dwell in you?

¹⁶Eks te tea, et te olete Jumala tempel ja teie sees elab Jumala Vaim?

¹⁷if any one the sanctuary of God doth waste, him shall God waste; for the sanctuary of God is holy, the which ye are.

¹⁷Kui keegi rikub Jumala templi, siis Jumal rikub ka tema, sest Jumala tempel on püha, ja see olete teie.

¹⁸Let no one deceive himself; if any one doth seem to be wise among you in this age — let him become a fool, that he may become wise,

¹⁸Ärgu ükski petku ennast! Kes teie seas tundub endale targana selles maailmas, see saagu narriks, et ta saaks targaks!

¹⁹for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it hath been written, `Who is taking the wise in their craftiness;`

¹⁹Jumala juures on ju praeguse maailma tarkus narrus, sest on kirjutatud: 'Tema tabab targad nende riugastelt.'

²⁰and again, `The Lord doth know the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.`

²⁰Ja taas: 'Issand tunneb ära tarkade arutlused, et need on tühised.'

²¹So then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,

²¹Nõnda ärgu siis ükski kiidelgu inimestest, sest teie päralt on kõik:

²²whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things about to be — all are yours,

²²olgu Paulus, olgu Apollos, olgu Keefas, olgu maailm, olgu elu, olgu surm, olgu käesolev, olgu tulev - kõik on teie päralt,

²³and ye [are] Christ`s, and Christ [is] God`s.

²³teie olete aga Kristuse päralt ja Kristus on Jumala päralt.
