1With regard to <4012> spiritual gifts <4152>, brothers and sisters <80>, I do <2309> not <3756> want <2309> you <5209> to be uninformed <50>.
2You know <1492> that <3754> when <3753> you were <1510> pagans <1484> you were <520> often led astray <520> by speechless <880> idols <1497>, however <5613> <302> you were led <71>.
3So <1352> I want <1107> you <5213> to understand that <3754> no one <3762> speaking <2980> by <1722> the Spirit <4151> of God <2316> says <3004>, “Jesus <2424> is cursed <331>,” and <2532> no one <3762> can <1410> say <2036>, “Jesus <2424> is Lord <2962>,” except <1487> <3361> by <1722> the Holy <40> Spirit <4151>.
4Now there are <1510> different <1243> gifts <5486>, but <1161> the same <846> Spirit <4151>.
5And <2532> there are <1510> different <1243> ministries <1248>, but <2532> the same <846> Lord <2962>.
6And <2532> there are <1510> different <1243> results <1755>, but <2532> the same <846> God <2316> who produces <1754> all <3956> of them in <1722> everyone <3956>.
7To each <1538> person the manifestation <5321> of the Spirit <4151> is given <1325> for <4314> the benefit <4851> of all.
8For <1063> one person is given <1325> through <1223> the Spirit <4151> the message <3056> of wisdom <4678>, and <1161> another <243> the message <3056> of knowledge <1108> according <2596> to the same <846> Spirit <4151>,
9to another <2087> faith <4102> by <1722> the same <846> Spirit <4151>, and <1161> to another <243> gifts <5486> of healing <2386> by <1722> the one <1520> Spirit <4151>,
10to another <243> performance <1755> of miracles <1411>, to another <243> prophecy <4394>, and <1161> to another <243> discernment <1253> of spirits <4151>, to another different <2087> kinds <1085> of tongues <1100>, and <1161> to another <243> the interpretation <2058> of tongues <1100>.
11It is one <1520> and <2532> the same <846> Spirit <4151>, distributing <1244> as <2531> he decides <1014> to each <1538> person, who produces <1754> all <3956> these things <5023>.
12For <1063> just as <2509> the body <4983> is <1510> one <1520> and <2532> yet has <2192> many <4183> members <3196>, and <1161> all <3956> the members <3196> of the body <4983>– though many <4183>– are <1510> one <1520> body <4983>, so <3779> too <2532> is <1510> Christ <5547>.
13For <1063> in <1722> one <1520> Spirit <4151> we <2249> were all <3956> baptized <907> into <1519> one <1520> body <4983>. Whether <1535> Jews <2453> or <1535> Greeks <1672> or <1535> slaves <1401> or <1535> free <1658>, we were <4222> all <3956> made to drink <4222> of the one <1520> Spirit <4151>.
14For <1063> in fact the body <4983> is <1510> not <3756> a single <1520> member <3196>, but <235> many <4183>.
15If <1437> the foot <4228> says <2036>, “Since <3754> I am <1510> not <3756> a hand <5495>, I am <1510> not <3756> part of <1537> the body <4983>,” it does not <3756> lose its membership in the body <4983> because of <3844> that <5124>.
16And <2532> if <1437> the ear <3775> says <2036>, “Since <3754> I am <1510> not <3756> an eye <3788>, I am <1510> not <3756> part of <1537> the body <4983>,” it does <3756> not lose its membership in the body <4983> because of <3844> that <5124>.
17If <1487> the whole <3650> body <4983> were an eye <3788>, what part would do <4226> the hearing <189>? If <1487> the whole <3650> were an ear <189>, what part would <4226> exercise the sense of smell <3750>?
18But <1161> as a matter of fact, God <2316> has placed <5087> each <1538> of the members <3196> in <1722> the body <4983> just as <2531> he decided <2309>.
19If <1487> they were <1510> all <3956> the same member <3196>, where <4226> would the body <4983> be?
20So <1161> now <3568> there are many <4183> members <3196>, but <1161> one <1520> body <4983>.
21The eye <3788> cannot <1410> say <2036> to the hand <5495>, “I do not <3756> need <5532> you <4675>,” nor in turn <3825> can the head <2776> say to the foot <4228>, “I do <2192> not <3756> need <5532> you <5216>.”
22On the contrary <235> <4183> <3123>, those members <3196> <4983> that seem <1380> to be weaker <772> are <1510> essential <316>,
23and <2532> those members <4983> we consider <1380> less honorable <820> we clothe <4060> with greater <4053> honor <5092>, and <2532> our <2257> unpresentable <2157> members are clothed <4053> <2192> with dignity <809>,
24but <1161> our <2257> presentable <2158> members do <2192> not <3756> need <2192> need <5532> this. Instead <235>, God <2316> has blended together <4786> the body <4983>, giving <1325> greater <4053> honor <5092> to the lesser member <5302>,
25so that <2443> there may be no <3361> <1510> division <4978> in <1722> the body <4983>, but <235> the members <3196> may have mutual concern <3309> for <5228> one another <240>.
26If <1535> one <1520> member <3196> suffers <4841>, everyone <3956> suffers <3958> with it. If <1535> a member <3196> is honored <1392>, all <3956> rejoice <4796> with it.
27Now <1161> you <5210> are <1510> Christ’s <5547> body <4983>, and <2532> each of you is a member <3196> of <1537> it <3313>.
28And <2532> God <2316> has placed <5087> in <1722> the church <1577> first <4412> apostles <652>, second <1208> prophets <4396>, third <5154> teachers <1320>, then <1899> miracles <1411>, gifts <5486> of healing <2386>, helps <484>, gifts of leadership <2941>, different kinds <1085> of tongues <1100>.
29Not <3361> all <3956> are apostles <652>, are they? Not <3361> all <3956> are prophets <4396>, are they? Not <3361> all <3956> are teachers <1320>, are they? Not <3361> all <3956> perform miracles <1411>, do they?
30Not <3361> all <3956> have <2192> gifts <5486> of healing <2386>, do they <2980>? Not <3361> all <3956> speak <2980> in tongues <1100>, do they <1329>? Not <3361> all <3956> interpret <1329>, do they?
31But <1161> you should be eager <2206> for the greater <3173> gifts <5486>. And <2532> now <2089> I will show <1166> you <5213> a way <3598> that is beyond <2596> comparison <5236>.
