¹Brothers, I couldn’t speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ.

¹[Ny amin'ny raharahan'ny mpitoriteny, sy ny mbola hizahan-toetra azy] Ary izaho, ry rahalahy, tsy nahazo niteny taminareo tahaka ny amin'izay araka ny Fanahy, fa tahaka ny amin'izay mbola nofo, dia tahaka izay mbola zaza ihany ao amin'i Kristy.

²I fed you with milk, not with meat; for you weren’t yet ready. Indeed, not even now are you ready,

²Ronono no nomeko anareo, fa tsy ventin-kanina, satria tsy mbola natanjaka ianareo; eny, mbola tsy matanjaka mandraka ankehitriny aza,

³for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?

³fa mbola araka ny nofo ihany ianareo. Fa raha misy fialonana sy fifandirana eo aminareo, tsy araka ny nofo va ianareo ka mandeha araka ny fanaon'ny olona?

⁴For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you fleshly?

⁴Fa raha hoy ny anankiray: Izaho an'i Paoly, ary ny anankiray kosa: Izaho an'i Apolosy, moa tsy olona ihany va ianareo?

⁵Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed; and each as the Lord gave to him?

⁵Koa inona moa Apolosy, ary inona moa Paoly? Mpanompo ihany izay nahatonga anareo ho mpino ireo, dia samy araka ny nomen'ny Tompo azy avy.

⁶I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase.

⁶Izaho namboly, Apolosy nandena, fa Andriamanitra no nampitombo.

⁷So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

⁷Ka dia tsinontsinona izay mamboly, na izay mandena, fa Andriamanitra Izay mampitombo no izy.

⁸Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

⁸Ary iray ihany ny mpamboly sy ny mpandena; nefa samy handray izay valim-pitiany avy araka ny fisasarany izy.

⁹For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s farming, God’s building.

⁹Fa mpiara-miasa amin'Andriamanitra izahay; ary sahan'Andriamanitra sy trano arafitr'Andriamanitra ianareo.

¹⁰According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.

¹⁰Araka ny fahasoavan'Andriamanitra nomena ahy, tahaka ny fanaon'ny mpità-marika mahay no nanaovako ny fanorenana, ary ny hafa mandrafitra eo amboniny; nefa aoka ny olona rehetra hitandrina izay arafiny eo amboniny.

¹¹For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.

¹¹Fa tsy misy mahay manao fanorenana hafa afa-tsy izay natao, dia Jesosy Kristy.

¹²But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or stubble;

¹²Ary raha misy mandrafitra volamena, na volafotsy, na vato tsara, na hazo, na bozaka, na mololo, eo ambonin'ny fanorenana,

¹³each man’s work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man’s work is.

¹³dia haseho avokoa ny asan'ny olona rehetra; fa ny andro no hampiseho azy, satria haseho amin'afo izany andro izany, ka dia hozahan-toetra, amin'ny afo ny asan'ny olona rehetra. [ Na: izany]

¹⁴If any man’s work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward.

¹⁴Raha maharitra ny asan'ny olona, izay narafiny teo amboniny, dia handray valim-pitia izy.

¹⁵If any man’s work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.

¹⁵Raha ho levon'ny afo ny asan'ny olona, dia ho fatiantoka izy; fa ny tenany kosa dia hovonjena, nefa toy ny avy ao amin'ny afo ihany izy.

¹⁶Don’t you know that you are a temple of God, and that God’s Spirit lives in you?

¹⁶Tsy fantatrareo va fa tempolin'Andriamanitra ianareo, ary ny Fanahin'Andriamanitra mitoetra no anatinareo?

¹⁷If anyone destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are.

¹⁷Raha misy manimba ny tempolin'Andriamanitra, dia mba hosimban'Andriamanitra kosa izy; fa masina ny tempolin'Andriamanitra, dia ianareo izany. [ Na: dia masina koa ianareo]

¹⁸Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

¹⁸Aza misy mamita-tena. Raha misy eo aminareo manao azy ho hendry amin'izao tontolo izao, aoka ho adala izy mba ho hendry.

¹⁹For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.” Job 5:13

¹⁹Fa ny fahendren'izao tontolo izao dia fahadalana eo anatrehan'Andriamanitra; fa voasoratra hoe: Ny hafetsen'ny hendry ihany no entiny misambotra azy (Joba 5. 13).

²⁰And again, “The Lord knows the reasoning of the wise, that it is worthless.” Psalm 94:11

²⁰Ary indray: Jehovah no mahalala ny hevitry ny hendry fa zava-poana izany (Sal. 94. 11)

²¹Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours,

²¹Ka dia aza misy manao olona ho reharehany; fa anareo ny zavatra rehetra:

²²whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours,

²²na Paoly, na Apolosy, na Kefasy, na izao tontolo izao, na fiainana, na fahafatesana, na ny zavatra ankehitriny, na ny zavatra ho avy; dia anareo izany rehetra izany;ary ianareo an'i Kristy ary Kristy an'Andriamanitra.

²³and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

²³ary ianareo an'i Kristy ary Kristy an'Andriamanitra.
