{Are one} (hen eisin). The neuter singular again (hen,

planter and the waterer work together. If no one planted, the
watering would be useless. If no one watered, the planting would

these words are written. {According to his own labour} (kata ton
idion kopon). God will bestow to each the reward that his labour
deserves. That is the pay that the preacher is sure to receive.
He may get too little or too much here from men. But the due
reward from God is certain and it will be adequate however
ungrateful men may be.
