| 1 | But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant. |
| 2 | Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led. |
| 3 | I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in [the power of the] Spirit of God, says, Curse [on] Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in [the power of the] Holy Spirit. |
| 4 | But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit; |
| 5 | and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord; |
| 6 | and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all. |
| 7 | But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit. |
| 8 | For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit; |
| 9 | and to a different one faith, in [the power of] the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in [the power of] the same Spirit; |
| 10 | and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues. |
| 11 | But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases. |
| 12 | For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ. |
| 13 | For also in [the power of] one Spirit we have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit. |
| 14 | For also the body is not one member but many. |
| 15 | If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body? |
| 16 | And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body? |
| 17 | If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling? |
| 18 | But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him]. |
| 19 | But if all were one member, where the body? |
| 20 | But now the members [are] many, and the body one. |
| 21 | The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you. |
| 22 | But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; |
| 23 | and those [parts] of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness; |
| 24 | but our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked; |
| 25 | that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another. |
| 26 | And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it]. |
| 27 | Now ye are Christ's body, and members in particular. |
| 28 | And God has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues. |
| 29 | [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers? |
| 30 | have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? |
| 31 | But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence. |
