1 Corinthians 3:8

⁶who “will pay back to everyone according to their works:”

²⁷For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will give to everyone according to his deeds.

³⁶He who reaps receives wages and gathers fruit to eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. ³⁷For in this the saying is true, ‘One sows, and another reaps.’ ³⁸I sent you to reap that for which you haven’t labored. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor.”

¹²Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.

⁸Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.

⁵⁸Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the Lord’s work, because you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

⁷Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. ⁸For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

¹²“Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.

⁴But let each man examine his own work, and then he will have reason to boast in himself, and not in someone else.

⁴When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
