< 1 Corinthians 12 >

1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.
Koeinaakhqi, myihla ben them peek ve a sim kaana nami awm ham amni ngaih nak khqi nyng.
2 You know that when you were unbelievers, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
Maana lukih na nami awm awh ikawmyih na awm a ngaihnaak amyihna, ce myiqawl awi amak takhqi benna ceh pyi na awm uhyk ti sim uhyk ti.
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.
Cedawngawh ka nik kqawn peek khqi, u awm Khawsa myihla ing awi ak kqawn ingtaw, “Jesu taw khawsii zawk seh,” am ti uhy, u ingawm Ciim Myihla ak caming kataw, “Jesu taw Boei ni,” am ti thai hy.
4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Them pek ak chang chang awm hlai hy, Myihla taw pynoet ni.
5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
Bibinaak ak chang chang awm hlai hy, Bawipa taw pynoet ni.
6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
Bibinaak ak chang chang awm hlai hy, Khawsa ing ni thlang boeih awh bi a bi hy.
7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
Hawihkhaangnaak a hamna Myihla simsaknaak ce thlang boeih a venawh pek na awm hy.
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;
Thlang pynoet a venawh Myihla ing cyihnaak awithang pe nawh, ak chang a venawh Myihla ing awithang simnaak pe bai hy.
9 to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the one Spirit;
Thlak chang pynoet a venawh Myihla awh cangnaak ce pe nawh, thlang pynoet a venawh thlak tlo qoei sak thainaak pe hy.
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.
Thlang pynoet a venawh kawpoek kyi thaawmnaak pe nawh, pynoet a venawh awithang khypyinaak pe hy. Pynoet a venawh myihlakhqi hqimhqa thainaak pe nawh, ak chang pynoet a venawh awi ak chang chang pau thainaak pehy. Ak chang pynoet a ven bai awh ce am sim awi zaaksim thainaak pe hy.
11 But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
Cehlai vekkhqi boeih ve Myihla pynoet ing thlang boeih a venawh ak ngaihnaak amyihna teei nawh bibi hy.
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.
Pum ve pynoet doeng hlai ni a baai khawzah awm hy; cawhkaw a baai khawzah ing pum pynoet coeng sak hy. Cemyih nani Khrih awm a awm hy.
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.
Ikawtih ningnih boeih ve Myihla pynoet ing ni pumoet na awm a hamna baptisma ani peek khqi boeih hy; Juda awm Greek awm tamnaa awm ak tamnaa am awm, awk hly kawi Myihla pynoet doeng ni ningnih a venawh a ni peek khqi hy.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Pum ve pynoet doengna am sai nawh a baai khawzah nani a sai.
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.
Khaw ing, “Kai taw kut na am awm nyng saw pum awh am paa nyng,” a ti mantaw, cemyihna a ti ak camawh pum awh a paa kaana am awm thai hy.
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.
Haa ing, “Kai taw mik na am awm nyng saw pum awh am paa thai nyng,” a ti mantaw, cemyihna a ti ak camawh pum awh a paa kaana am awm thai hy.
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?
Pum ve mik hqoeng na a awm mantaw, ikaw ing nu awi ang zaak kaw? Pum ve haa hqoeng na a awm mantaw, ikaw ing nu baw ang zaak bai kaw?
18 But as a matter of fact, God has arranged the members of the body, each one of them, according to his design.
Cehlai Khawsa ing pum awhkaw a baaikhqi boeih ce amah ing a ngaihnaak a hun awh ta boeih hy.
19 If they were all the same member, where would the body be?
Pum a baaikhqi ve pynoet na a awm boeih mantaw pum ve hana nu a awm kaw?
20 So now there are many members, but one body.
Cedawngawh, a pang kqeng soeih hlai hy, pum taw pynoet ni.
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."
Mik ing kut a venawh, Amni ngoe nyng! am tina thai hy. Lu ing khaw a venawh, “Amni ngoe nyng!” am tina thai bai hy.
22 On the contrary, those members which seem to be weaker are essential,
Cemyihna pum a baai tha amak awn amyihna ak dangkhqi ve phu ak ta boeihkhqi na awm uhy.
23 and the parts which we think less honorable we treat with greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with dignity,
Cekcoengawh zoeksang kawina am ning ngaih pum a baaikhqi ce, ce qoe ce huhhly kawina awm uhy; huh sitna ak awm ni baaikhqi ing zoeksangnaak khawzah hu uhy.
24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the lesser member,
Ni baai huhlhy ak cukhqi ingtaw cemyihna sai am ngaih hy. Pum-awh ve hqeengnaak qoe qoe am awm nawh, a baaikhqi ing ang myih qipna amik bawng qunaak qip thai a hamna
25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same concern for one another.
Khawsa ing dawnaak amak ta a baai ce zoeksang khqoet nawh, pum ve pumoetna a sai ni.
26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. If a member is honored, all rejoice with it.
Cemyihna a baai pynoet ing ang yh awhtaw a baai changkhqi boeih ingawm yh lawt unawh, a baai pynoet zoeksangna a awm awhtaw a baaikhqi boeih ing ym pyi uhy.
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
Nangmih taw Khrih a pumna awm unawh, a baaikhqi boeihna awm uhyk ti.
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.
Khawsa ing thlangvang ce thlangboel khuiawh ta nawh, a pynoetnaak awh ceityih na, a pakkhihnaak awh awihkqawnkung na, ak pakthumnaak awh cawngpyikung na ta hy; cekcoengawh kawpoek saithainaak, ak tlo qoei saknaak, awi a phyn phyn na awikqawn thainaak them pekkhqi ce awm bai hy.
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
Ami cu boeih ceityih na awm boeih unawh nu? Ami cu boeih tawngha na awm boeih unawh nu? Ami cu boeih cawngpyikung na awm boeih unawh nu? Ami cu boeih ing kawpoek kyi them sai boeih unawh nu?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
Ami cu boeih ing thlaktlo qoei sai thai boeih unawh nu? Ami cu boeih ing awi kqawncaihnaak thai ta boeih unawh nu?
31 But earnestly desire the greater gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
Cehlai thempeek ak bau soeihkhqi ce ngaih soeih kawm uk ti. Cawhce lamleek soeih nim huh khqi kawng nyng. soeih lah uh.
