1 Corinthians 12
1 But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
Na mo nga mea wairua, e oku teina, kahore ahau e pai kia kuware koutou.
2 Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.
E matau ana koutou, i a koutou e Tauiwi ana, he mea kahaki koutou ki nga whakapakoko reokore, me koutou i kahakina ra.
3 I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in [the power of the] Spirit of God, says, Curse [on] Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in [the power of the] Holy Spirit.
Koia ahau ka whakakite nei ki a koutou, e kore tetahi tangata, na te Wairua nei o te Atua ana korero, e ki, He mea kanga a Ihu: e kore ano e taea e tetahi te mea, Ko Ihu te Ariki, ki te kahore te Wairua Tapu.
4 But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;
Na, he maha nga wehewehenga o nga mea e homai ana, kotahi ano ia Wairua.
5 and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;
A he maha nga wehewehenga o nga minitatanga, kotahi ano ia Ariki.
6 and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.
He maha ano hoki nga tu ahua o nga mahi; kotahi ano ia Atua hei mahi i nga mea katoa i roto i te katoa.
7 But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.
Otira e homai ana ki tena, ki tena, te whakakitenga a te Wairua hei pai.
8 For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
E homai ana hoki ki tetahi e te Wairua te kupu whakaaro; ki tetahi atu ko te kupu matau, he mea na taua Wairua ano;
9 and to a different one faith, in [the power of] the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in [the power of] the same Spirit;
Ki tetahi atu ko te whakapono, na taua Wairua ra ano; ki tetahi atu ko nga mana whakaora, na taua Wairua ano:
10 and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues.
Ki tetahi atu ko nga mahi merekara; ki tetahi atu ko te mahi poropiti; ki tetahi atu ko te matauranga ki nga wairua; ki tetahi atu ko nga reo huhua; ki tetahi atu ko te whakamaoritanga i nga reo:
11 But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.
Na, ko enei mea katoa, he mea mahi na taua Wairua kotahi ra ano, ko ia hei tuwha i tana e pai ai ki tetahi, ki tetahi.
12 For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ.
Pera hoki i te tinana e kotahi ana, he tini ano ona wahi, a ko nga wahi katoa o taua tinana kotahi, ahakoa tini, kotahi ano tinana; he pera hoki a te Karaiti.
13 For also in [the power of] one Spirit we have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit.
Kotahi nei hoki te Wairua i iriiria ai tatou katoa ki roto ki te tinana kotahi, ahakoa nga Hurai, ahakoa nga Kariki, ahakoa herehere, ahakoa rangatira; kotahi tonu te Wairua i whakainumia mai ai tatou katoa.
14 For also the body is not one member but many.
Ehara hoki te tinana i te wahi kotahi, engari he tini.
15 If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
Ki te mea te waewae, He teka no te tinana ahau, ehara hoki ahau i te ringa; ehara ma tena e kahore ai ia hei wahi mo te tinana.
16 And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
Ki te mea te taringa, He teka no te tinana ahau, ehara hoki ahau i te kanohi; ehara ma tena e kahore ai ia hei wahi mo te tinana.
17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
Mehemea hoki he kanohi te tinana katoa, kei hea te wahi hei whakarongo? Mehemea he whakarongo ta te katoa, kei hea te wahi hei hongi?
18 But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].
Ko tenei, kua oti i te Atua te whakanoho tenei wahi, tenei wahi, ki roto ki te tinana, ana hoki i pai ai.
19 But if all were one member, where the body?
Mehemea hoki kotahi ano wahi ratou katoa, kei hea te tinana?
20 But now the members [are] many, and the body one.
Ko tenei, he tini nga wahi, kotahi ano te tinana.
21 The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you.
E kore hoki te kanohi e ahei te mea ki te ringa, Kahore aku mahi mau: te mahunga ranei ki nga waewae, Kahore aku mahi ma korua.
22 But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
Engari, ko nga wahi o te tinana e kiia ana he ngoikore, nui rawa te mahi ma era;
23 and those [parts] of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;
Ko nga wahi hoki o te tinana e kiia ana e tatou he iti te honore, nui atu te honore e whakataua iho ana e tatou ki era; nui atu hoki te ataahua ki o tatou wahi marutuna;
24 but our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;
Ko o tatou wahi ataahua ia kahore he aha e meatia ai; heoi he mea huihui marire na te Atua nga wahi o te tinana, he mea whakarite marie, nui atu hoki te honore i hoatu e ia ki te wahi i hapa:
25 that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.
Kia kore ai he wehewehenga o te tinana; engari kia kotahi tonu te whakaaro o nga wahi mo tetahi, mo tetahi.
26 And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].
A ki te mamae tetahi wahi, mamae tahi ana nga wahi katoa; ki te whakahonoretia tetahi wahi, hari tahi ana nga wahi katoa.
27 Now ye are Christ's body, and members in particular.
Na, ko koutou te tinana o te Karaiti, he wahi ano nona tenei, tenei.
28 And God has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues.
A kua whakanohoia e te Atua etahi i roto i te hahi, ko nga apotoro ki mua, tuarua ko nga poropiti, tuatoru ko nga kaiwhakaako, muri iho ko nga merekara, me i reira ko nga mana whakaora, ki nga hoa mahi, ko nga kaiwhakahaere tikanga, ko nga reo h uhua.
29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?
He apotoro oti katoa? he poropiti oti katoa? he kaiwhakaako katoa? he kaimahi katoa i te merekara?
30 have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
Kei te katoa oti nga mana whakaora? e korero katoa ana oti i nga reo? he kaiwhakamaori anake ranei?
31 But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.
Na, whaia nga mea homai papai rawa: tenei ia te ara tino pai rawa, maku e whakaatu ki a koutou.
