1 Corinthians 12

1 Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed.

BUT concerning spirituals, my brethren, I wish you to know

2 You know that when you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.

that you were Heathens, and unto idols which have no voice you were led without discernment.

3 Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

I therefore make known to you, that there is no man who by the Spirit of Aloha speaketh, and saith that Jeshu is accursed; and no man also can say that Jeshu is THE LORD unless by the Spirit of Holiness.

4 There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

Now, there are distributions of gifts, but one is the Spirit;

5 There are different ministries, but the same Lord.

and there are distributions of ministries, but one is the Lord;

6 There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all people.

and distributions of powers, but one is Aloha, who worketh all in every man.

7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.

But to each is given (such) a revelation of the Spirit as is profitable to him.

8 To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by the same Spirit,

To one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom, but to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,

and to another, faith by the same Spirit; and to another, the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in various tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.

but to another, powers; to another, prophecy; to another, the discernment of spirits; but to another, kinds of tongues; and to another, the interpretation of tongues.

11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines.

But all these one Spirit effecteth, and divideth unto every man as he willeth.

12 The body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.

For, as the body is one, and in it are many members, but all the members of the body, though many, are one body; so also is the Meshiha.

13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free, and we were all given one Spirit to drink.

For we all by one Spirit into one body are baptized; whether Jihudoyee or Aramoyee; whether servants or sons of freedom; and all of us have imbibed one Spirit.

14 For the body does not consist of one part, but of many.

For the body also is not one member, but many.

15 If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.

For if the foot should say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body itself, would it therefore not be of the body itself?

16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.

And if the ear should say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body itself, would it therefore not be of the body itself?

17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?

For if the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? And if the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

18 But in fact, God has arranged the members of the body, every one of them, according to His design.

But now hath Aloha set all the members severally in the body as he willed.

19 If they were all one part, where would the body be?

But if all were one member, where would be the body?

20 As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

But now the members are many, but the body one.

21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you.” Nor can the head say to the feet, “I do not need you.”

The eye is not able to say to the hand, Thou art not needful to me; nor is the hand able to say to the feet, You are not needful to me.

22 On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,

But those members which are considered to be feeble, of them is the more especial need;

23 and the parts we consider less honorable, we treat with greater honor. And our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,

and those which we consider contemptible in the body, to these the more we increase the honour; and on those which are of shame we bestow the greater decoration.

24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has composed the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

But those members that are honourable in us have no need of adornment: but Aloha hath contempered the body, and given the more honour to the member which is inconsiderable;

25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its members should have mutual concern for one another.

that there should be no divisions in the body, but all the members equally one of the other should have care:

26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

as that when one member shall be diseased, all may suffer; and if one member be glorified, all the members may be glorified.

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.

But you are the body of the Meshiha, and members in your place.

28 And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, and those with gifts of healing, helping, administration, and various tongues.

FOR Aloha hath placed in the church, first, apostles; after them, prophets; after them, teachers; after them, workers of miracles; after them, gifts of healing, and helpers, and leaders, and kinds of tongues.

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?

Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?

30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?

Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues, or do all interpret?

31 But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way.

But if you are emulous of great gifts, I will yet show you a way more admirable.
