1 Corinthians 12
1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.
he bhrātaraḥ, yūyaṁ yad ātmikān dāyān anavagatāstiṣṭhatha tadahaṁ nābhilaṣāmi|
2 You know that when you were unbelievers, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
pūrvvaṁ bhinnajātīyā yūyaṁ yadvad vinītāstadvad avākpratimānām anugāmina ādhbam iti jānītha|
3 Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by God's Spirit says, "Jesus is accursed." No one can say, "Jesus is Lord," but by the Holy Spirit.
iti hetorahaṁ yuṣmabhyaṁ nivedayāmi, īśvarasyātmanā bhāṣamāṇaḥ ko'pi yīśuṁ śapta iti na vyāharati, punaśca pavitreṇātmanā vinītaṁ vinānyaḥ ko'pi yīśuṁ prabhuriti vyāharttuṁ na śaknoti|
4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
dāyā bahuvidhāḥ kintveka ātmā
5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
paricaryyāśca bahuvidhāḥ kintvekaḥ prabhuḥ|
6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
sādhanāni bahuvidhāni kintu sarvveṣu sarvvasādhaka īśvara ekaḥ|
7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
ekaikasmai tasyātmano darśanaṁ parahitārthaṁ dīyate|
8 For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
ekasmai tenātmanā jñānavākyaṁ dīyate, anyasmai tenaivātmanādiṣṭaṁ vidyāvākyam,
9 to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the one Spirit;
anyasmai tenaivātmanā viśvāsaḥ, anyasmai tenaivātmanā svāsthyadānaśaktiḥ,
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.
anyasmai duḥsādhyasādhanaśaktiranyasmai ceśvarīyādeśaḥ, anyasmai cātimānuṣikasyādeśasya vicārasāmarthyam, anyasmai parabhāṣābhāṣaṇaśaktiranyasmai ca bhāṣārthabhāṣaṇasāmaryaṁ dīyate|
11 But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
ekenādvitīyenātmanā yathābhilāṣam ekaikasmai janāyaikaikaṁ dānaṁ vitaratā tāni sarvvāṇi sādhyante|
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 Christ.
deha ekaḥ sannapi yadvad bahvaṅgayukto bhavati, tasyaikasya vapuṣo 'ṅgānāṁ bahutvena yadvad ekaṁ vapu rbhavati, tadvat khrīṣṭaḥ|
13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink of one Spirit.
yato heto ryihūdibhinnajātīyadāsasvatantrā vayaṁ sarvve majjanenaikenātmanaikadehīkṛtāḥ sarvve caikātmabhuktā abhavāma|
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
ekenāṅgena vapu rna bhavati kintu bahubhiḥ|
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.
tatra caraṇaṁ yadi vadet nāhaṁ hastastasmāt śarīrasya bhāgo nāsmīti tarhyanena śarīrāt tasya viyogo na bhavati|
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.
śrotraṁ vā yadi vadet nāhaṁ nayanaṁ tasmāt śarīrasyāṁśo nāsmīti tarhyanena śarīrāt tasya viyogo na bhavati|
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?
kṛtsnaṁ śarīraṁ yadi darśanendriyaṁ bhavet tarhi śravaṇendriyaṁ kutra sthāsyati? tat kṛtsnaṁ yadi vā śravaṇendriyaṁ bhavet tarhi ghraṇendriyaṁ kutra sthāsyati?
18 But as a matter of fact, God has arranged the members of the body, each one of them, according to his design.
kintvidānīm īśvareṇa yathābhilaṣitaṁ tathaivāṅgapratyaṅgānām ekaikaṁ śarīre sthāpitaṁ|
19 If they were all the same member, where would the body be?
tat kṛtsnaṁ yadyekāṅgarūpi bhavet tarhi śarīre kutra sthāsyati?
20 So now there are many members, but one body.
tasmād aṅgāni bahūni santi śarīraṁ tvekameva|
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."
ataeva tvayā mama prayojanaṁ nāstīti vācaṁ pāṇiṁ vadituṁ nayanaṁ na śaknoti, tathā yuvābhyāṁ mama prayojanaṁ nāstīti mūrddhā caraṇau vadituṁ na śaknotiḥ;
22 On the contrary, those members which seem to be weaker are essential,
vastutastu vigrahasya yānyaṅgānyasmābhi rdurbbalāni budhyante tānyeva saprayojanāni santi|
23 and the parts which we think less honorable we treat with greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with dignity,
yāni ca śarīramadhye'vamanyāni budhyate tānyasmābhiradhikaṁ śobhyante| yāni ca kudṛśyāni tāni sudṛśyatarāṇi kriyante
24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the lesser member,
kintu yāni svayaṁ sudṛśyāni teṣāṁ śobhanam niṣprayojanaṁ|
25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same concern for one another.
śarīramadhye yad bhedo na bhavet kintu sarvvāṇyaṅgāni yad aikyabhāvena sarvveṣāṁ hitaṁ cintayanti tadartham īśvareṇāpradhānam ādaraṇīyaṁ kṛtvā śarīraṁ viracitaṁ|
26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. If a member is honored, all rejoice with it.
tasmād ekasyāṅgasya pīḍāyāṁ jātāyāṁ sarvvāṇyaṅgāni tena saha pīḍyante, ekasya samādare jāte ca sarvvāṇi tena saha saṁhṛṣyanti|
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
yūyañca khrīṣṭasya śarīraṁ, yuṣmākam ekaikaśca tasyaikaikam aṅgaṁ|
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.
kecit kecit samitāvīśvareṇa prathamataḥ preritā dvitīyata īśvarīyādeśavaktārastṛtīyata upadeṣṭāro niyuktāḥ, tataḥ paraṁ kebhyo'pi citrakāryyasādhanasāmarthyam anāmayakaraṇaśaktirupakṛtau lokaśāsane vā naipuṇyaṁ nānābhāṣābhāṣaṇasāmarthyaṁ vā tena vyatāri|
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
sarvve kiṁ preritāḥ? sarvve kim īśvarīyādeśavaktāraḥ? sarvve kim upadeṣṭāraḥ? sarvve kiṁ citrakāryyasādhakāḥ?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
sarvve kim anāmayakaraṇaśaktiyuktāḥ? sarvve kiṁ parabhāṣāvādinaḥ? sarvve vā kiṁ parabhāṣārthaprakāśakāḥ?
31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
yūyaṁ śreṣṭhadāyān labdhuṁ yatadhvaṁ| anena yūyaṁ mayā sarvvottamamārgaṁ darśayitavyāḥ|
