| 1 Cor. 12:1 |
Now concerning spiritual [gifts,] brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant. |
| 1 Cor. 12:2 |
You know that when you were Gentiles, you were [always] being led away to dumb idols, whenever and however you were led. |
| 1 Cor. 12:3 |
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking in the Spirit of God says, Jesus [is] accursed; and no one can say, Jesus [is] Lord! except in the Holy Spirit. |
| 1 Cor. 12:4 |
But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit; |
| 1 Cor. 12:5 |
And there are distinctions of ministries, yet the same Lord; |
| 1 Cor. 12:6 |
And there are distinctions of operations, but the same God, who operates all things in all. |
| 1 Cor. 12:7 |
But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for what is profitable. |
| 1 Cor. 12:8 |
For to one through the Spirit a word of wisdom is given, and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit; |
| 1 Cor. 12:9 |
To a different one faith in the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healing in the one Spirit, |
| 1 Cor. 12:10 |
And to another operations of works of power, and to another prophecy, and to another discerning of spirits; to a different one [various] kinds of tongues, and to another interpretation of tongues. |
| 1 Cor. 12:11 |
But the one and the same Spirit operates all these things, distributing to each one respectively even as He purposes. |
| 1 Cor. 12:12 |
For even as the body is one and has many members, yet all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ. |
| 1 Cor. 12:13 |
For also in one Spirit we were all baptized into one Body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and were all given to drink one Spirit. |
| 1 Cor. 12:14 |
For the body is not one member but many. |
| 1 Cor. 12:15 |
If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body, [it is] not [that] because of this it is not of the body. |
| 1 Cor. 12:16 |
And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body, [it is] not [that] because of this it is not of the body. |
| 1 Cor. 12:17 |
If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were the hearing, where would the smelling be? |
| 1 Cor. 12:18 |
But now God has placed the members, each one of them, in the body, even as He willed. |
| 1 Cor. 12:19 |
And if all were one member, where would the body be? |
| 1 Cor. 12:20 |
But now the members are many, but the body one. |
| 1 Cor. 12:21 |
And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you; nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. |
| 1 Cor. 12:22 |
But much rather the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary. |
| 1 Cor. 12:23 |
And those [members] of the body which we consider to be less honorable, these we clothe with more abundant honor; and our uncomely [members come to] have more abundant comeliness, |
| 1 Cor. 12:24 |
But our comely [members] have no need. But God has blended the body together, giving more abundant honor to the [member] that lacked, |
| 1 Cor. 12:25 |
That there would be no division in the body, but [that] the members would have the same care for one another. |
| 1 Cor. 12:26 |
And whether one member suffers, all the members suffer with [it;] or one member is glorified, all the members rejoice with [it.] |
| 1 Cor. 12:27 |
Now you are the Body of Christ, and members individually. |
| 1 Cor. 12:28 |
And God has placed some in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers; then works of power, then gifts of healing, helps, administrations, [various] kinds of tongues. |
| 1 Cor. 12:29 |
Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all [have] works of power? |
| 1 Cor. 12:30 |
Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret [tongues?] |
| 1 Cor. 12:31 |
But earnestly desire the greater gifts. And moreover I show to you a most excellent way. |
