1 Corinthians 12
1 Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
Me nuanom, mempɛ sɛ morenhu nsɛm a ɛfa Honhom Kronkron akyɛde no ho no.
2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
Munim sɛ bere a na moyɛ abosonsomfo no, moyeraa kwan kɔɔ ahoni a awuwu no nkyɛn.
3 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and [that] no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
Nea ɛsɛ sɛ mote ase ne sɛ, obiara a ɔwɔ Onyankopɔn Honhom akwankyerɛ no ka se “Yesu yɛ Awurade,” na ɔnnome Yesu.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Akyɛde no gu ahorow nanso Honhom koro no ara na ɛkyekyɛ.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
Akwan ahorow bebree wɔ hɔ a wɔfa so som nanso Awurade koro no ara na wɔsom no.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
Tumi ahorow bebree wɔ hɔ a wɔnam so som, nanso Onyankopɔn koro no ara na ɔma obiara tumi ma ɔde som.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
Honhom Kronkron no nam yɛn mmaako mmaako so da ne ho adi wɔ akwan bi so ma ɛboa yɛn nyinaa.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
Honhom Kronkron no ma obi nyansa na Honhom Kronkron no ara nso ama obi osuahu.
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
Saa Honhom Kronkron no ara ma obi gyidi na ɔma obi nso tumi a ɔde sa nyarewa.
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another [divers] kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
Honhom Kronkron no ma obi tumi ma ɔyɛ anwonwade; obi nso, ɔma no tumi ma ɔka Onyankopɔn asɛm; na ɔfoforo nso ɔma no tumi ma ɔkyerɛ nsonoe a ɛda akyɛde a efi Honhom Kronkron no ne nea emfi Honhom Kronkron no mu. Honhom Kronkron no ma obi tumi ma ɔka kasa foforo na ɔma ɔfoforo nso tumi ma ɔkyerɛ kasa foforo no ase.
11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
Ɛyɛ Honhom Kronkron koro no ara na ɔyɛ eyinom nyinaa; akyɛde ahorow a ɔpɛ sɛ ɔde ma obiara no, ɔde ma no.
12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also [is] Christ.
Kristo te sɛ onipadua baako a ɛwɔ akwaa bebree; ɛwɔ mu sɛ ɛwɔ akwaa bebree de, nanso ɛyɛ nipadua koro no ara.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether [we be] bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Wɔnam saa ɔkwan koro no ara so abɔ yɛn Yudafo ne amanamanmufo ne nkoa ne yɛn a yɛde yɛn ho no asu. Wɔnam Honhom Kronkron koro no so abɔ yɛn asu ahyɛ saa onipa koro no ara mu. Na wɔde saa Honhom Kronkron no ama yɛn nyinaa se yɛnnom.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Onipadua no ankasa nyɛ akwaa baako; ɛyɛ akwaa bebree.
15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
Sɛ nan ka se, “Esiane sɛ menyɛ nsa nti, menka nipadua no ho” a, ɛnyɛ ɛno na ɛremma no nyɛ nipadua no fa bi.
16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
Na sɛ aso ka se, “Esiane sɛ menyɛ aniwa nti, menka nipadua no ho” a, ɛnyɛ ɛno na ɛremma no nyɛ nipadua no fa bi.
17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?
Na sɛ nipadua no nyinaa yɛ aniwa a, anka ɛbɛyɛ dɛn ate asɛm? Na sɛ ɛyɛ aso a anka ɛbɛyɛ dɛn ahua ade?
18 But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
Sɛnea Onyankopɔn pɛ no no na ɔde akwaa biara sii.
19 And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?
Sɛ nipadua no nyinaa yɛ akwaa koro a, anka nipadua no bɛyɛ dɛn?
20 But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.
Sɛnea ɛte no, akwaa gu ahorow, nanso nipadua no yɛ baako pɛ.
21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
Eyi nti, aniwa ntumi nka nkyerɛ nsa se, “Wo ho nhia me!” Saa ara na eti rentumi nka nkyerɛ nan se, “Wo ho nhia me!”
22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
Saa ara na yɛrentumi nyɛ biribiara a akwaa a ɛyɛ mmerɛw no nka ho mma ɛnyɛ yiye.
23 And those [members] of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness.
Akwaa a yesusuw sɛ enni mu pii no mmom na yɛhwɛ no yiye, na nea ɛnyɛ fɛ wɔ nipadua ho no nso yɛhwɛ no yiye pa ara.
24 For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that [part] which lacked:
Na akwaa a edi mu no, saa ɔhwɛ no ho nhia no. Onyankopɔn ankasa nam ɔkwan bi so akeka nipadua no asisi anim de ahyɛ akwaa a wommu no no anuonyam.
25 That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.
Enti nkyekyɛmu biara nni nipadua no mu. Akwaa no nyinaa keka wɔn ho wɔn ho bɔ mu.
26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
Sɛ akwaa baako ho ka a, akwaa a aka no nyinaa ho ka bi. Na sɛ wɔkamfo akwaa no bi a, anigye ka akwaa a aka no nyinaa.
27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
Enti mo nyinaa moyɛ Kristo nipadua. Na mo mu biara yɛ nʼakwaa.
28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
Onyankopɔn ahyehyɛ biribiara pɛpɛɛpɛ wɔ asafo no mu: Nea edi kan, asomafo; nea ɛto so abien, adiyifo; nea ɛto so abiɛsa, akyerɛkyerɛfo; afei wɔn a wɔyɛ anwonwade na wɔn a wɔama wɔn tumi de sa yare anaa wɔboa afoforo anaa wɔkyerɛ wɔn kwan anaa wɔka kasa foforo.
29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?
Wɔn nyinaa nyɛ asomafo anaa adiyifo anaa akyerɛkyerɛfo. Ɛnyɛ wɔn nyinaa na wɔwɔ tumi a wɔde yɛ anwonwade
30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
anaa wɔsa nyarewa, anaa wɔka kasa foforo anaa wɔkyerɛ nea wɔka no ase.
31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
Monhwehwɛ akyɛde a ɛbɛboa mo yiye akyi kwan. Mɛkyerɛ mo ɔkwan foforo a eye pa ara.
