1 Kolinta 12

1 N kpiiba, yaala n tie U Tienu Fuoma paabu yaapo, mii bua lan ya boani yi.

Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.

2 Yi bani ke yin den tie nilanba ya yogunu, yi den tuodi ke bi dia ki caani yi i buli yi n ki maadi po.

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

3 Lanwani n kadi ki waani yi ke U Tienu Fuoma n gobidi yua kuli kan yedi: Jesu tie ti solindi yua, oba kuli mo kan yedi: «Jesu n tie o Diedo, » kali U Tienu Fuoma yua gobidi o.

Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Jesus is accursed.” No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.

4 Bu paabu buoli yaba, ama Fuoma yendo n puuni likuli.

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

5 I todibuoli moko yaba ama o Diedo yua n die likuli tie yendo.

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

6 I tuonbuoli yada, ama U Tienyendu n tuuni laa tuona kuli bi niba kuli nni.

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

7 Yua kuli baa U Tienu Fuoma doagidima li nitaanli kuli todima po.

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

8 O Fuoma puni niyendo mi yanfomaama. Mi Fuoma yenma yeni go puni nitoa mi bandima maama.

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

9 Mi Fuoma yenma yeni n puni niyendo li dandanli, ki go puni nitoa mo wan ya paagidi a yiama.

to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

10 O puni niyendo ke o baa fidi ki ya tiendi mi bancianma, ki go puni nitoa ke o baa fidi ki ya wangi U Tienu maama, ki puni nitoa goga U Tienu Fuoma leni mu cicibiadimu gagidima paabu. O puni mi malanma paabu ki go puni nitoa mi malanma soaginma paabu.

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.

11 Laa Fuoma yenma n tuuni laa bonbuoli kuli, ki puuni nilo kuli oba nani wani oba n bua maama.

But the one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

12 Kelima, nani ti gbanandi n tie yenma ki nan pia ya gbananbuoli n yaba maama, ama baa ke ti buoli yaba yeni, tikuli taani ki tie gbananyendi. Li moko tie yene leni kilisiti.

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.

13 Ti kuli den batisi mi Fuoma yenma yeni ya niinni, ke tin tua gbananyendi, lan tie Jufinba leni bi nilanba, lan tie i yonbi bi yaaba n die bi yula, U Tienu puni tikuli ke ti baa ki ñuni Fuoma yenma ya kani.

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 into one Spirit.

14 Lanyaapo, ti gbanandi naa tie gbanan -buoyendu bebe ka ama gbananbuoli boncianla.

For the body is not one member, but many.

15 Li ya tie ke li taali yedi: «Min ki tie nu yeni, mii n taa ti gbanandi nni, » lani kan teni ke li kaa taa ti gbanandi nni.

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.

16 Li ya tie ke li tubili mo yedi: «Min ki tie nunbu yeni, mii taa ti gbanandi, » lani kan teni ke li kaa taa ti gbanandi.

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.

17 Li ya tie ke ti gbanandi kuli bi tie nunbu bebe, mi gbadima bi baa ye le? Bi ti kuli ya bi ti tubili bebe, ti baa gba u nuulu lede?

If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?

18 Moamoani U tienu bili gbananbuolu kuli uba uba ti gbanandi nii nani wan bua maama.

But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

19 I gbananbuoli yeni kuli ya bi tie gbanan-buoyendu bebe, ti gbanandi bi baa ye le?

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

20 To, baa ke i gbananbuoli yaba, ti gbanandi tie gbananyendi.

But now they are many members, but one body.

21 Lanwani bu nunbu naa pia sanu ki yedi u nu: «Min pia leni a hantaado.» Li yuli mo naa pia sanu ki yedi a taana: «Mii pia leni a hantaado.»

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.”

22 Ama ya gbananbuoli n naani ke i tadi ki cie moko tie tiladi.

No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

23 Ya gbananbuoli n kaa pia jigidi ti gbanandi nii, ti jigindi ti boncianla. Ya gbananbuoli n kaa pia jawaama, ti tiani ipo ki kubi i leni li fanginli.

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,

24 Ya gbananbuoli n pia mi jawaama mo, yii bua pugima. U tienu den tagi ti gbanandi ki taani ti buolu, ki teni ke ya gbananbuoli n kaa pia jigidi n baa ti jigidi ki pugini.

while our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,

25 O den tieni yeni ke mi paadima da ye ti gbanandi nii, ama gbananbuoli kuli ya bua ki todi iyi yenma. Gbanan - buoyendu ya laadi fala, i gbananbuoli kuli taani leni u laa fala nni.

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

26 Gbanan- buoyendu ya baa ti jigidi, i gbananbuoli kuli mangi i pala lieni.

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

27 Yinba kuli taani ki tie kilisiti gbanandi, yi siiga yua kuli tie o gbananbuolu,

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

28 U tienu kpa bili Kilisiti n yini yaaba siiga bi tondiba miliema bi mawangikaaba, mi taama bi bangikaaba. Li yaapuoli li pia yaaba n tiendi mi bancianma, tianba ke bi baa paagidi a yiama, tianba mi todima paabu, bi tianba mi gobidima paabu, tianba malanma maama paabu.

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

29 Bikuli tie tondiba bi? Bikuli tie mawangikaaba bi? Bikuki tie bangikaaba bi? Bikuli tiendi mi bancianma bi?

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

30 Bi kuli baa a yiama paagima paabu yoo? Bi ki maadi mi malanma yoo? Bi ki fidi ki soangindi mi malanma yoo? Yeni ka.

Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?

31 Lawani yin ya bua mani ya paabu n hani ki cie. N go baa waani yi ya sanu n hani ki cie likuli.

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