New International Reader's Version

1 Corinthians 3:1-2 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Brothers and sisters, I couldn't speak to you as if you were guided by the Holy Spirit. I had to speak to you as if you were following the ways of the world. You aren't growing as Christ wants you to. You are still like babies.

2. The words I spoke to you were like milk, not like solid food. You weren't ready for solid food yet. And you still aren't ready for it.
