1 Corinthians 3:12-17 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

12. People can build on that foundation using gold, silver, jewels, wood, grass, or straw.

13. But the work that each person does will be clearly seen, because the Day will make it plain. That Day will appear with fire, and the fire will test everyone’s work.

14. If the building they put on the foundation still stands, they will get their reward.

15. But if their building is burned up, they will suffer loss. They will be saved, but it will be like someone escaping from a fire.

16. You should know that you yourselves are God’s temple. God’s Spirit lives in you.

17. If you destroy God’s temple, God will destroy you, because God’s temple is holy. You yourselves are God’s temple.
