< 1 Corinthians 12 >
1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.
Ní ti Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ ẹ̀yin ará, kò yẹ́ kí ẹ jẹ́ òpè.
2 You know that when you were heathen, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
Ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀ pé nígbà tí ẹ̀yin jẹ́ kèfèrí, a fà yín lọ sọ́dọ̀ àwọn odi òrìṣà.
3 Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Yeshua is accursed.” No one can say, “Yeshua is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.
Nítorí náà, èmí ń sọ fún un yín pé kò sí ẹni ti ń sọ̀rọ̀ nípasẹ̀ Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run tí ó lè wí pé, “Ẹni ìfibú ni Jesu,” àti pé kò sí ẹni tí ó lè sọ pé, “Olúwa ni Jesu,” bí kò ṣe nípasẹ̀ Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́.
4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Ǹjẹ́ onírúurú ẹ̀bùn ni ó wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ẹ̀mí kan náà ni o ń pín wọn.
5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
Onírúurú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ni ó sì wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kan náà sì ni.
6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God who works all things in all.
Onírúurú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ni ó sì wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kan náà ni ẹni tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ gbogbo wọn nínú gbogbo wọn.
7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
Ṣùgbọ́n à ń fi ẹ̀bùn Ẹ̀mí fún olúkúlùkù ènìyàn láti fi jèrè.
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,
Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ lè fún ẹnìkan ní ọgbọ́n láti lè fún ènìyàn nímọ̀ràn, ẹlòmíràn ní ẹ̀bùn láti sọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú ìmọ̀ ńlá. Láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ kan náà ni èyí ti wá.
9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
Ó fi ẹ̀bùn ìgbàgbọ́ fún ẹlòmíràn, ẹlòmíràn ló sì fi agbára ìwòsàn fún nípa Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ kan náà.
10 and to another workings of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of languages, and to another the interpretation of languages.
Ó fi agbára fún àwọn mìíràn láti ṣe àwọn iṣẹ́ ìyanu. Ó fún àwọn mìíràn lágbára láti sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ àti láti wàásù pẹ̀lú ìmísí. Bákan náà ló fún àwọn kan lẹ́bùn láti mọ ìyàtọ̀ láàrín àwọn ẹ̀mí. Ó fún àwọn ẹlòmíràn ní ẹ̀bùn àti agbára láti lè sọ èdè tí wọn kò mọ̀. Bákan náà ó fún àwọn ẹlòmíràn lágbára láti mọ̀ àti láti túmọ̀ èdè tí wọn kò gbọ́ rí.
11 But the one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
Àní, Ẹ̀mí kan ṣoṣo ní ń fún ni ní gbogbo ẹ̀bùn àti agbára wọ̀nyí. Òun ni ẹni tí ń ṣe ìpinnu ẹ̀bùn tí ó yẹ láti fún ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan.
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.
Ara jẹ́ ọ̀kan tí ó ní àwọn ẹ̀yà púpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀yà ara tí ó pọ̀ wọ̀nyí ni ó papọ̀ láti jẹ́ ara kan ṣoṣo. Bákan náà ni ó rí pẹ̀lú ara Kristi tí í ṣe ìjọ.
13 For in one Spirit we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.
Nítorí pé nínú Ẹ̀mí kan ní a ti bamitiisi gbogbo wa sínú ara kan, ìbá à ṣe Júù, ìbá à ṣe Giriki, ìbá à ṣe ẹrú, ìbá à ṣe òmìnira, gbogbo wa ni a mu nínú Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ kan náà.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ara, kì í ṣe ẹ̀yà kan ṣoṣo bí kò ṣe púpọ̀.
15 If the foot would say, “Because I’m not the hand, I’m not part of the body,” it is not therefore not part of the body.
Tí ẹsẹ̀ bá wí pé, “Nítorí èmi kì í ṣe ọwọ́, èmi kì í ṣe ti ara,” èyí kò wí pé kì í ṣe ọ̀kan lára nínú ẹ̀yà ara.
16 If the ear would say, “Because I’m not the eye, I’m not part of the body,” it’s not therefore not part of the body.
Bí etí bá wí pé, “Nítorí èmi kì í ṣe ojú, èmi kì í ṣe apá kan ara,” èyí kò le mú kí ó má jẹ́ apá kan ara mọ́.
17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?
Bí gbogbo ara bá jẹ́ ojú, níbo ni ìgbọ́ran ìbá gbé wà? Bí gbogbo ara bá jẹ́ etí, níbo ni ìgbóórùn ìbá gbé wà?
18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.
Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ti fi àwọn ẹ̀yà ara si ara wa, ó sí fi ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan sí ibi tí ó fẹ́ kí ó wà.
19 If they were all one member, where would the body be?
Bí gbogbo wọn bá sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan ṣoṣo nínú ẹ̀yà ara, níbo ni ara yóò gbé wà.
20 But now they are many members, but one body.
Ọlọ́run dá ẹ̀yà ara púpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ara kan ṣoṣo ni.
21 The eye can’t tell the hand, “I have no need for you,” or again the head to the feet, “I have no need for you.”
Bí ó tí rí yìí, ojú kò lè sọ fún ọwọ́ pé, “Èmi kò nílò rẹ.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni orí kò le sọ fún ẹsẹ̀ pé, “Èmi kò nílò rẹ.”
22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
Àwọn ẹ̀yà ara tí ó dàbí ẹni pé wọ́n ṣe aláìlágbára jùlọ, tí ó dàbí ẹni pé kò ṣe pàtàkì rárá, àwọn gan an ni a kò le ṣe aláìnílò.
23 Those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, on those we bestow more abundant honor; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant modesty,
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yà ara tí a rò pé kò lọ́lá rárá ni àwa ń fi ọlá fún jùlọ. Àwọn ẹ̀yà ara tí a rò pé ko yẹ rárá ni àwa ń fi si ipò ọlá ẹ̀yẹ tí ó ga jùlọ.
24 while our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,
Nítorí pé àwọn ibi tí ó ní ẹ̀yẹ ní ara wa kò nílò ìtọ́jú ọ̀tọ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ti pa gbogbo ẹ̀yà ara pọ̀ ṣọ̀kan lọ́nà kan, ó sì ti fi ẹ̀yẹ tó ga jùlọ fún ibi tí ó ṣe aláìní.
25 that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
Kí ó má ṣe sí ìyàtọ̀ nínú ara, ṣùgbọ́n kí àwọn ẹ̀yà ara le máa jẹ́ olùrànlọ́wọ́ fún ara wọn.
26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. When one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
Bí ẹ̀yà ara kan bá ń jìyà, gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀yà ara ìyókù a máa bá a pín nínú ìyà náà. Tí a bá sì bu ọlá fún ẹ̀yà ara kan, gbogbo ẹ̀yà ara ìyókù a máa bá a yọ̀.
27 Now you are the body of Messiah, and members individually.
Gbogbo yín jẹ́ ara Kristi, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan yín sì jẹ́ ẹ̀yà ara ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ nínú ara Kristi.
28 God has set some in the assembly: first emissaries, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.
Ọlọ́run sì gbé àwọn mìíràn kalẹ̀ nínú ìjọ, èkínní àwọn aposteli, èkejì àwọn wòlíì, ẹ̀kẹta àwọn olùkọ́ni, lẹ́yìn náà, àwọn tó ń ṣiṣẹ́ ìyanu, lẹ́yìn náà àwọn tí ó ní ẹ̀bùn ìmúláradá, àwọn olùrànlọ́wọ́ àti àwọn agbani nímọ̀ràn, àwọn tí ń sọ onírúurú èdè.
29 Are all emissaries? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
Ǹjẹ́ gbogbo ènìyàn ni ó jẹ́ aposteli bi? Tàbí gbogbo ènìyàn ni wòlíì bí? Ṣe gbogbo ènìyàn ní olùkọ́ni? Ṣé gbogbo ènìyàn ló ní agbára láti ṣe iṣẹ́ ìyanu bí?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?
Ṣé gbogbo ènìyàn ló lè wonisàn bí? Rárá. Ǹjẹ́ gbogbo wa ni Ọlọ́run fún ní ẹ̀bùn láti le sọ̀rọ̀ ní èdè tí a kò ì tí ì gbọ́ rí bí? Ṣé ẹnikẹ́ni ló lè túmọ̀ èdè tí wọ́n sọ tí kò sì yé àwọn ènìyàn bí?
31 But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
Ṣùgbọ́n, ẹ máa fi ìtara ṣàfẹ́rí ẹ̀bùn ti ó tóbi jù. Síbẹ̀ èmi o fi ọ̀nà kan tí ó tayọ rékọjá hàn yín.
