1 Corinthians 3:13-14
1 Corinthians 3:13-14 King James Version (KJV)
every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
1 Corinthians 3:9-15 The Message (MSG)
Or, to put it another way, you are God’s house. Using the gift God gave me as a good architect, I designed blueprints; Apollos is putting up the walls. Let each carpenter who comes on the job take care to build on the foundation! Remember, there is only one foundation, the one already laid: Jesus Christ. Take particular care in picking out your building materials. Eventually there is going to be an inspection. If you use cheap or inferior materials, you’ll be found out. The inspection will be thorough and rigorous. You won’t get by with a thing. If your work passes inspection, fine; if it doesn’t, your part of the building will be torn out and started over. But you won’t be torn out; you’ll survive—but just barely.
1 Corinthians 3:13-14 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)

1 Corinthians 3:13-14 New Century Version (NCV)

1 Corinthians 3:13-14 American Standard Version (ASV)

If his work stands the test of fire, he will be rewarded.
