1 Corinthians 12
1 Now concerning spiritual things, I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers.
Ugbu a ụmụnna m, achọrọ m ka unu mata ihe gbasara onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ na-enye.
2 You know that when you were Gentiles, you approached mute idols, doing what you were led to do.
Unu matara na mgbe unu bụ ndị na-amaghị Chineke, e duru unu nʼotu ụzọ maọbụ nke ọzọ, duhie unu ụzọ iso arụsị ndị ahụ dara ogbi.
3 Because of this, I would have you know that no one speaking in the Spirit of God utters a curse against Jesus. And no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, except in the Holy Spirit.
Ya mere, achọrọ m ka unu ghọta nke ọma na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla na-ekwu okwu site nʼodudu Mmụọ nke Chineke, pụrụ ị sị, “Ka Jisọs bụrụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ.” Ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla pụrụ ikwu, na “Jisọs bụ Onyenwe anyị,” ma ọ bụghị site na Mmụọ Nsọ.
4 Truly, there are diverse graces, but the same Spirit.
Onyinye amara dị iche iche dị, ma otu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ na-enye ha niile.
5 And there are diverse ministries, but the same Lord.
E nwekwara ụdị ije ozi dị iche iche, maọbụ otu Onyenwe anyị ahụ ka a na-ejere ozi.
6 And there are diverse works, but the same God, who works everything in everyone.
Ụdị ike dị iche iche nke eji arụ ọrụ dịkwa, ma otu Chineke ahụ na-etinye ike ndị a nʼime onye ọbụla iji jee ozi.
7 However, the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one toward what is beneficial.
Ọ na-enyekwa onye ọbụla amara izipụta ike nke Mmụọ Nsọ maka ọdịmma mmadụ niile.
8 Certainly, to one, through the Spirit, is given words of wisdom; but to another, according to the same Spirit, words of knowledge;
Mmụọ Nsọ na-enye otu onye onyinye ikwu okwu amamihe, na-enyekwa onye ọzọ onyinye ịma ihe ọmụma, site nʼotu Mmụọ ahụ.
9 to another, in the same Spirit, faith; to another, in the one Spirit, the gift of healing;
Otu Mmụọ nsọ a na-enye onye ọzọ onyinye inwe okwukwe, na-enyekwa onye ọzọ onyinye inwe ike ịgwọ ọrịa.
10 to another, miraculous works; to another, prophecy; to another, the discernment of spirits; to another, different kinds of languages; to another, the interpretation of words.
Onye ọzọ ka ọ na-enye onyinye ịrụ ọrụ ịtụnanya, onye ọzọ ike ibu amụma. Onye ọzọ ka ọ na-enye ike ịkọwa ụdị mmụọ dị iche iche, ma onye ọzọkwa ka ọ na-enye ike ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche. Ma ọ na-enyekwa onye ọzọ ike ịkọwa ihe onye na-asụ asụsụ ndị a na-ekwu.
11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one according to his will.
Ọ bụ otu Mmụọ ahụ na-enye onyinye ndị a niile. Ọ na-enye onye ọbụla onyinye dị iche iche dịka Mmụọ Nsọ si kpebie.
12 For just as the body is one, and yet has many parts, so all the parts of the body, though they are many, are only one body. So also is Christ.
Dịka ahụ anyị si nwe akụkụ dị iche iche, ma bụrụkwa otu ahụ, nʼagbanyeghị na o nwere ọtụtụ akụkụ, otu a ka anụ ahụ Kraịst dịkwa.
13 And indeed, in one Spirit, we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether servant or free. And we all drank in the one Spirit.
Site nʼotu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ ka e mere anyị niile baptizim nʼotu nʼotu, ma ndị Juu ma ndị Griik, ma ohu ma ndị nwe onwe ha. E meela ka anyị ṅụọ ọbara ya, nʼime njikọ nke otu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ.
14 For the body, too, is not one part, but many.
Ahụ mmadụ abụghị naanị otu akụkụ, kama o nwere ọtụtụ akụkụ ahụ.
15 If the foot were to say, “Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body,” would it then not be of the body?
Ọ bụrụ na ụkwụ asị, “Nʼihi na-abụghị m aka, esoghị nʼahụ,” nke a agaghị egbochi ya ka ọ gharakwa ịbụ otu nʼakụkụ anụ ahụ.
16 And if the ear were to say, “Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body,” would it then not be of the body?
Otu a kwa, ọ bụrụ na ntị asị, “Ebe m na-abụghị anya abụghị m otu akụkụ anụ ahụ.” Okwu a kwa agaghị eme ka ntị ghara ịbụ akụkụ anụ ahụ.
17 If the whole body were the eye, how would it hear? If the whole were hearing, how would it smell?
Ọ bụrụ na ahụ niile bụ anya, olee ka ahụ ga-esi nụ ihe? Ọ bụrụkwa na ahụ mmadụ bụ naanị ntị ọ ga-esi aṅaa nụ isisi ihe ọbụla?
18 But instead, God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body, just as it has pleased him.
Ma otu ihe si dị, Chineke debere nʼotu nʼotu akụkụ niile dị nʼahụ dịka o si chọọ.
19 So if they were all one part, how would it be a body?
A sị na akụkụ niile dị nʼahụ bụ otu ihe, kedụ ebe ahụ ga-adị?
20 But instead, there are many parts, indeed, yet one body.
Otu ọ dị, ọ bụ ezie na ihe dị nʼahụ dị ọtụtụ, ma ha niile bụ otu ahụ.
21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need for your works.” And again, the head cannot say to the feet, “You are of no use to me.”
Nʼihi nke a, anya enweghị ike ịgwa aka sị, “Achọghị m gị, nʼihi na ị dịghị m mkpa.” Isi agakwaghị agwa ụkwụ sị, “Achọghị m inyeaka gị.”
22 In fact, so much more necessary are those parts of the body which seem to be weaker.
Kama ọ bụ akụkụ ahụ anyị ndị na-esighị ike bụ ndị dị anyị mkpa karịa.
23 And though we consider certain parts of the body to be less noble, we surround these with more abundant dignity, and so, those parts which are less presentable end up with more abundant respect.
E e, akụkụ ndị ahụ anyị na-eche na ha adịghị mkpa ka anyị na-eji nsọpụrụ na-elekọta. Akụkụ ndị ahụ na-ekwesighị ile anya ka anyị na-enye ugwu, ma na-ekpuchi ha.
24 However, our presentable parts have no such need, since God has tempered the body together, distributing the more abundant honor to that which has the need,
Ma anyị adịghị esi otu a elekọta akụkụ ahụ ndị ahụ anya na-ahụ nʼụzọ pụrụ iche, nʼihi na Chineke kpachapụrụ anya mee ka akụkụ ndị ahụ dịkarịsịrị nta bụrụ nke anyị kwesiri inye nsọpụrụ karịa.
25 so that there might be no schism in the body, but instead the parts themselves might take care of one another.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, nkewa ọbụla adịghị nʼahụ mmadụ. Akụkụ ọbụla maara mkpa ibe ya, ha na-egborịtakwara onwe ha mkpa ha.
26 And so, if one part suffers anything, all the parts suffer with it. Or, if one part finds glory, all the parts rejoice with it.
Ọ bụrụ na otu akụkụ enwe nsogbu, akụkụ ndị ọzọ ga-eketa oke na nsogbu ahụ. Ọ bụrụkwa na otu akụkụ emee ihe ga-eweta otuto ọ bụ ahụ niile na-enwe otuto ahụ.
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and parts like any part.
Ugbu a, unu niile nʼotu nʼotu bụ otu anụ ahụ Kraịst. Unu bụkwa akụkụ ahụ ya nʼotu nʼotu, bụrụkwa ndị dị mkpa nʼahụ ahụ.
28 And indeed, God has established a certain order in the Church: first Apostles, second Prophets, third Teachers, next miracle-workers, and then the grace of healing, of helping others, of governing, of different kinds of languages, and of the interpretation of words.
Nke a bụ ụfọdụ nʼime akụkụ dị iche iche Chineke tinyere na chọọchị; nke mbụ bụ ndị ozi, ndị amụma, ndị nkuzi, ndị na-arụ ọrụ ịtụnanya, ndị na-agwọ ọrịa, ndị pụrụ inyere mmadụ ibe ha aka, ndị nwere onyinye ịchịkọta ihe niile nʼusoro, na ndị na-asụ asụsụ dị iche iche.
29 Are all Apostles? Are all Prophets? Are all Teachers?
Ha niile, ha bụ ndị ozi? Ha niile ha bụ ndị amụma? Ha niile ha bụ ndị nkuzi? Ha niile ha bụ ndị ọrụ ebube?
30 Are all workers of miracles? Do all have the grace of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?
Ha niile ha nwere onyinye ịgwọ ọrịa? Ha niile ha na-asụ nʼolu dị iche iche? Ha niile ha nwere onyinye nke ịkọwa asụsụ dị iche iche?
31 But be zealous for the better charisms. And I reveal to you a yet more excellent way.
Ugbu a, gbalịsienụ ike inweta onyinye kachasị dị elu karịa. Ma aga m ezi unu ụzọ nke kachasị ihe a niile mma.
