< 1 Corinthians 12 >
1 BUT concerning spirituals, my brethren, I wish you to know
And concerning the spiritual things, brothers, I do not wish you to be ignorant;
2 that you were Heathens, and unto idols which have no voice you were led without discernment.
you have known that you were nations, being carried away as you were led to the mute idols;
3 I therefore make known to you, that there is no man who by the Spirit of Aloha speaketh, and saith that Jeshu is accursed; and no man also can say that Jeshu is THE LORD unless by the Spirit of Holiness.
for this reason, I give you to understand that no one, speaking in the Spirit of God, says Jesus [is] accursed, and no one is able to say Jesus [is] LORD, except in the Holy Spirit.
4 Now, there are distributions of gifts, but one is the Spirit;
And there are diversities of gifts, and the same Spirit;
5 and there are distributions of ministries, but one is the Lord;
and there are diversities of ministries, and the same Lord;
6 and distributions of powers, but one is Aloha, who worketh all in every man.
and there are diversities of workings, and it is the same God—who is working all in all.
7 But to each is given (such) a revelation of the Spirit as is profitable to him.
And to each has been given the manifestation of the Spirit for profit;
8 To one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom, but to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
for to one through the Spirit has been given a word of wisdom, and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
9 and to another, faith by the same Spirit; and to another, the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
and to another faith in the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings in the same Spirit;
10 but to another, powers; to another, prophecy; to another, the discernment of spirits; but to another, kinds of tongues; and to another, the interpretation of tongues.
and to another in-workings of mighty deeds; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; and to another [various] kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues:
11 But all these one Spirit effecteth, and divideth unto every man as he willeth.
and the one and the same Spirit works all these, dividing to each individually as He intends.
12 For, as the body is one, and in it are many members, but all the members of the body, though many, are one body; so also is the Meshiha.
For even as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ,
13 For we all by one Spirit into one body are baptized; whether Jihudoyee or Aramoyee; whether servants or sons of freedom; and all of us have imbibed one Spirit.
for also in one Spirit we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all were made to drink one Spirit,
14 For the body also is not one member, but many.
for also the body is not one member, but many.
15 For if the foot should say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body itself, would it therefore not be of the body itself?
If the foot may say, “Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,” is it not, because of this, not of the body?
16 And if the ear should say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body itself, would it therefore not be of the body itself?
And if the ear may say, “Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,” is it not, because of this, not of the body?
17 For if the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? And if the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? If the whole hearing, where the smelling?
18 But now hath Aloha set all the members severally in the body as he willed.
And now, God set the members, each one of them in the body, according as He willed,
19 But if all were one member, where would be the body?
and if all were one member, where [is] the body?
20 But now the members are many, but the body one.
And now, indeed, [are] many members, but one body;
21 The eye is not able to say to the hand, Thou art not needful to me; nor is the hand able to say to the feet, You are not needful to me.
and an eye is not able to say to the hand, “I have no need of you”; nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.”
22 But those members which are considered to be feeble, of them is the more especial need;
But much more the members of the body seeming to be weaker are necessary,
23 and those which we consider contemptible in the body, to these the more we increase the honour; and on those which are of shame we bestow the greater decoration.
and those that we think to be less honorable of the body, around these we put more abundant honor, and our unseemly things have more abundant seemliness,
24 But those members that are honourable in us have no need of adornment: but Aloha hath contempered the body, and given the more honour to the member which is inconsiderable;
and our seemly things have no need; but God tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to the lacking part,
25 that there should be no divisions in the body, but all the members equally one of the other should have care:
that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,
26 as that when one member shall be diseased, all may suffer; and if one member be glorified, all the members may be glorified.
and whether one member suffers, all the members suffer with [it], or one member is glorified, all the members rejoice with [it];
27 But you are the body of the Meshiha, and members in your place.
and you are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28 FOR Aloha hath placed in the church, first, apostles; after them, prophets; after them, teachers; after them, workers of miracles; after them, gifts of healing, and helpers, and leaders, and kinds of tongues.
And some, indeed, God set in the Assembly: first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, afterward powers, afterward gifts of healings, helpings, governings, various kinds of tongues.
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?
[Are] all apostles? [Are] all prophets? [Are] all teachers? [Are] all powers?
30 Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues, or do all interpret?
[Do] all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
31 But if you are emulous of great gifts, I will yet show you a way more admirable.
And earnestly desire the better gifts; and yet I show to you a far [more] excelling way:
