| 1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. |
|
| 2 Ye know that when ye were Gentiles ye were led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might be led. |
|
| 3 Wherefore I make known unto you, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God saith, Jesus is a curse; and no man can say, Jesus is Lord, but in the Holy Spirit. |
|
| 4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. |
|
| 5 And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord. |
|
| 6 And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all. |
|
| 7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal. |
|
| 8 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 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit; |
|
| 10 and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits: to another diverse kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues: |
|
| 11 but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as it will. |
|
| 12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ. |
|
| 13 For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free, and were all made to drink of one Spirit. |
|
| 14 For the body is not one member, but many. |
|
| 15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body. |
|
| 16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body. |
|
| 17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? |
|
| 18 But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him. |
|
| 19 And if they were all one member, where were the body? |
|
| 20 But now they are many members, but one body. |
|
| 21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. |
|
| 22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary: |
|
| 23 and those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comliness; |
|
| 24 whereas our comely parts have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that part which lacked; |
|
| 25 that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. |
|
| 26 And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or a member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. |
|
| 27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof. |
|
| 28 And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, after that gifts of healings, helps, leaderships, divers kinds of tongues. |
|
| 29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? |
|
| 30 have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? |
|
| 31 But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you. |
