7. Formal Translation Therefore the one who plants is nothing, and the one who waters is nothing, but only God {Theos, Exclusive Growth-Giver}—the One who makes it grow. |
7. Dynamic Translation So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything; only God {Theos, Ongoing Increase-Source} is the One who produces the growth. |
