1 Corinthians 12

1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.

Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

2 You know that when you were unbelievers, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by God's Ruach says, "Yeshua is accursed." No one can say, "Yeshua is Lord," but by the Ruach ha-Kodesh.

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.

4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Ruach.

Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.

And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.

And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Ruach for the profit of all.

But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

8 For to one is given through the Ruach the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Ruach;

For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

9 to another faith, by the same Ruach; and to another gifts of healings, by the one Ruach;

To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

10 and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues.

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:

11 But the one and the same Ruach works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

12 For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Messiah.

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.

13 For in one Ruach we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink of one Ruach.

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.

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

For the body is not one member, but many.

15 If the foot would say, "Because I'm not a hand, I'm not part of the body," that would not make it less a part of the body.

If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

16 And if the ear would say, "Because I'm not the eye, I'm not part of the body," that would not make it less a part of the body.

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?

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

If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?

18 But as a matter of fact, God has arranged the members of the body, each one of them, according to his design.

But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

19 If they were all the same member, where would the body be?

And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?

20 So now there are many members, but one body.

But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.

21 The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need for you," or again the head to the feet, "I have no need for you."

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.

22 On the contrary, those members which seem to be weaker are essential,

Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:

23 and the parts which we think less honorable we treat with greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with dignity,

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.

24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the lesser member,

For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that [part] which lacked:

25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same concern for one another.

That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.

26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. If a member is honored, all rejoice with it.

And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

28 God has set some in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of tongues.

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.

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?

[Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?

30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

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

31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.

But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
