1 Corinthians 12
1 Ní ti Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ ẹ̀yin ará, kò yẹ́ kí ẹ jẹ́ òpè.
Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
2 Ẹ̀yin kò mọ̀ pé nígbà tí ẹ̀yin jẹ́ kèfèrí, a fà yín lọ sọ́dọ̀ àwọn odi òrìṣà.
All of you know that all of you were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as all of you were led.
3 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.
Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit (pneuma) of God calls Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Spirit. (pneuma)
4 Ǹjẹ́ onírúurú ẹ̀bùn ni ó wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ẹ̀mí kan náà ni o ń pín wọn.
Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. (pneuma)
5 Onírúurú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ni ó sì wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kan náà sì ni.
And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 Onírúurú iṣẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ ni ó sì wà, ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run kan náà ni ẹni tí ń ṣiṣẹ́ gbogbo wọn nínú gbogbo wọn.
And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which works all in all.
7 Ṣùgbọ́n à ń fi ẹ̀bùn Ẹ̀mí fún olúkúlùkù ènìyàn láti fi jèrè.
But the manifestation of the Spirit (pneuma) is given to every man to profit likewise.
8 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.
In order to one is given by the Spirit (pneuma) the word (logos) of wisdom; to another the word (logos) of knowledge by the same Spirit; (pneuma)
9 Ó fi ẹ̀bùn ìgbàgbọ́ fún ẹlòmíràn, ẹlòmíràn ló sì fi agbára ìwòsàn fún nípa Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ kan náà.
To another faith by the same Spirit; (pneuma) to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; (pneuma)
10 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.
To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; (pneuma) to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 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.
But all these works that one and the very same Spirit, (pneuma) dividing to every man severally as he will.
12 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.
For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
13 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.
For by one Spirit (pneuma) are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. (pneuma)
14 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ara, kì í ṣe ẹ̀yà kan ṣoṣo bí kò ṣe púpọ̀.
For the body is not one member, but many.
15 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.
If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
16 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.
And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
17 Bí gbogbo ara bá jẹ́ ojú, níbo ni ìgbọ́ran ìbá gbé wà? Bí gbogbo ara bá jẹ́ etí, níbo ni ìgbóórùn ìbá gbé wà?
If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
18 Ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run ti fi àwọn ẹ̀yà ara si ara wa, ó sí fi ẹ̀yà kọ̀ọ̀kan sí ibi tí ó fẹ́ kí ó wà.
But now has God set the members every one of them in the body, as it has pleased him.
19 Bí gbogbo wọn bá sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan ṣoṣo nínú ẹ̀yà ara, níbo ni ara yóò gbé wà.
And if they were all one member, where were the body?
20 Ọlọ́run dá ẹ̀yà ara púpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n ara kan ṣoṣo ni.
But now are they many members, yet but one body.
21 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.”
And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
22 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.
Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
23 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.
And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our indecent parts have more abundant loveliness.
24 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.
For our comely parts have no need: but God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked.
25 Kí ó má ṣe sí ìyàtọ̀ nínú ara, ṣùgbọ́n kí àwọn ẹ̀yà ara le máa jẹ́ olùrànlọ́wọ́ fún ara wọn.
That there should be no division in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
26 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.
And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Gbogbo yín jẹ́ ara Kristi, ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan yín sì jẹ́ ẹ̀yà ara ọ̀tọ̀ọ̀tọ̀ nínú ara Kristi.
Now all of you are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
28 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.
And God has set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
29 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?
Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
30 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?
Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
31 Ṣùgbọ́n, ẹ máa fi ìtara ṣàfẹ́rí ẹ̀bùn ti ó tóbi jù. Síbẹ̀ èmi o fi ọ̀nà kan tí ó tayọ rékọjá hàn yín.
But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way.
