¹And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, as unto babes in Christ.

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

²I fed you with milk, not with meat; for ye were not yet able [to bear it]: nay, not even now are ye able;

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

³for ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you jealousy and strife, are ye not carnal, and do ye not walk after the manner of men?

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 saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not men?

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

⁵What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? Ministers through whom ye believed; and each as the Lord gave to him.

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 gave the increase.

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

⁷So then neither is he that planteth anything, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

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

⁸Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.

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

⁹For we are God's fellow-workers: ye are God's husbandry, God's building.

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

¹⁰According to the grace of God which was given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder I laid a foundation; and another buildeth thereon. But let each man take heed how he buildeth thereon.

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 can no man lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

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

¹²But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble;

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

¹³each man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man's work of what sort it is.

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

¹⁴If any man's work shall abide which he built thereon, he shall receive a reward.

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

¹⁵If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as through fire.

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

¹⁶Know ye not that ye are a temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

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

¹⁷If any man destroyeth the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and such are ye.

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

¹⁸Let no man deceive himself. If any man thinketh that he is wise among you in this world, 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 is written, He that taketh 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 knoweth the reasonings of the wise that they are vain.

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

²¹Wherefore 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 to come; 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.
