They are servants through whom you believed, as the Lord has assigned to each. 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. 7 So then, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters are one, and each will receive their reward according to their own labor.
