Now I say this. That each of you actually say, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.

Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.

But God chose the foolish things of the world, so that he might humiliate the wise, and God chose the weak things of the world, so that he might humiliate the powerful.

Who therefore is Paul and who is Apollos? But rather helpers through whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to each man.

Now he who plants and he who waters are one, but each man will receive his own payment according to his own labor.

According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master builder, I laid a foundation and another man is building on it. But let each man take heed how he is building on it.

each man's work will become manifest. For the day will make it known, because it is revealed by fire. And the fire will test each man's work of what kind it is.

Therefore do not judge anything before time, until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make public the deliberations of the hearts. And then praise will come to each man from God.

We are foolish for the sake of Christ, but ye are wise in Christ. We are weak, but ye are strong. Ye are esteemed, but we are disreputable.

But because of fornications, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

Do not defraud each other except from agreement for a time, so that ye may have time for fasting and prayer. And come together again for the same thing, so that Satan not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

For I wish all men to be even as myself. However each man has his own gift from God, one in this way, and another after that.

Except, as God has distributed to each man, as the Lord has called each, so let him walk. And so I command in all the congregations.

Each man, in the situation in which he was called, in this he should remain.

Brothers, each man, in what he was called, should remain in this before God.

Nevertheless the knowledge is not in all men, but some, with conscience of the idol until now, eat as sacrificed to idols, and their weak conscience is defiled.

But take heed lest somehow this privilege of yours becomes a stumbling-block to those who are weak.

For if some man sees thee, who have knowledge, dining in an idol-temple, will not his conscience, being weak, be strengthened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

And by thy knowledge the brother, being weak, will be ruined, for whom Christ died.

And sinning this way against the brothers, and wounding their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

To the weak I became as weak, so that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, so that by all means I might save some.

Let not one man seek that of himself, but each man that of the other.

For each man proceeds to eat his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunken.

Because of this many are weak and sickly among you, and a considerable sleep.

Therefore, my brothers, when ye come together to eat, await each other.

But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each man toward that which is beneficial.

But the one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each man individually as it wills.

But now God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body just as he intended.

so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other.

What is it therefore, brothers? When ye come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

But each in his own order. Christ the first fruit, then those of Christ at his coming.

But God gives it a body as he wills, and to each of the seeds its own body.

Upon the first day of the week let each of you set something aside near himself, storing up whatever he may prosper, so that when I come no collections may be made then.

All the brothers salute you. Salute each other by a holy kiss.
