1 Now{G1161} concerning{G4012} spiritual{G4152} gifts, brethren{G80}, I would{G2309} not{G3756} have{G2309}{(G5719)} you{G5209} ignorant{G50}{(G5721)}.

2 Ye know{G1492}{(G5758)} that{G3754} ye were{G2258}{(G5713)} Gentiles{G1484}, carried away{G520}{(G5746)} unto{G4314} these dumb{G880} idols{G1497}, even as{G5613}{G302} ye were led{G71}{(G5712)}.

3 Wherefore{G1352} I give{G1107} you{G5213} to understand{G1107}{(G5719)}, that{G3754} no man{G3762} speaking{G2980}{(G5723)} by{G1722} the Spirit{G4151} of God{G2316} calleth{G3004}{(G5719)} Jesus{G2424} accursed{G331}: and{G2532} that no man{G3762} can{G1410}{(G5736)} say{G2036}{(G5629)} that Jesus{G2424} is the Lord{G2962}, but{G1508} by{G1722} the Holy{G40} Ghost{G4151}.

4 Now{G1161} there are{G1526}{(G5748)} diversities{G1243} of gifts{G5486}, but{G1161} the same{G846} Spirit{G4151}.

5 And{G2532} there are{G1526}{(G5748)} differences{G1243} of administrations{G1248}, but{G2532} the same{G846} Lord{G2962}.

6 And{G2532} there are{G1526}{(G5748)} diversities{G1243} of operations{G1755}, but{G1161} it is{G2076}{(G5748)} the same{G846} God{G2316} which{G3588} worketh{G1754}{(G5723)} all{G3956} in{G1722} all{G3956}.

7 But{G1161} the manifestation{G5321} of the Spirit{G4151} is given{G1325}{(G5743)} to every man{G1538} to{G4314} profit withal{G4851}{(G5723)}.

8 For{G1063} to one{G3739}{G3303} is given{G1325}{(G5743)} by{G1223} the Spirit{G4151} the word{G3056} of wisdom{G4678};{G1161} to another{G243} the word{G3056} of knowledge{G1108} by{G2596} the same{G846} Spirit{G4151};

9 {G1161} To another{G2087} faith{G4102} by{G1722} the same{G846} Spirit{G4151};{G1161} to another{G243} the gifts{G5486} of healing{G2386} by{G1722} the same{G846} Spirit{G4151};

10 {G1161} To another{G243} the working{G1755} of miracles{G1411};{G1161} to another{G243} prophecy{G4394};{G1161} to another{G243} discerning{G1253} of spirits{G4151};{G1161} to another{G2087} divers kinds{G1085} of tongues{G1100};{G1161} to another{G243} the interpretation{G2058} of tongues{G1100}:

11 But{G1161} all{G3956} these{G5023} worketh{G1754}{(G5719)} that one{G1520} and{G2532} the selfsame{G846} Spirit{G4151}, dividing{G1244}{(G5723)} to every man{G1538} severally{G2398} as{G2531} he will{G1014}{(G5736)}.

12 For{G1063} as{G2509} the body{G4983} is{G2076}{(G5748)} one{G1520}, and{G2532} hath{G2192}{(G5719)} many{G4183} members{G3196}, and{G1161} all{G3956} the members{G3196} of that one{G1520} body{G4983}, being{G5607}{(G5752)} many{G4183}, are{G2076}{(G5748)} one{G1520} body{G4983}: so{G3779} also{G2532} is Christ{G5547}.

13 For{G1063}{G2532} by{G1722} one{G1520} Spirit{G4151} are{G907} we{G2249} all{G3956} baptized{G907}{(G5681)} into{G1519} one{G1520} body{G4983}, whether{G1535} we be Jews{G2453} or{G1535} Gentiles{G1672}, whether{G1535} we be bond{G1401} or{G1535} free{G1658}; and{G2532} have been{G4222} all{G3956} made to drink{G4222}{(G5681)} into{G1519} one{G1520} Spirit{G4151}.

14 {G2532} For{G1063} the body{G4983} is{G2076}{(G5748)} not{G3756} one{G1520} member{G3196}, but{G235} many{G4183}.

15 If{G1437} the foot{G4228} shall say{G2036}{(G5632)}, Because{G3754} I am{G1510}{(G5748)} not{G3756} the hand{G5495}, I am{G1510}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} the body{G4983}; is{G2076}{(G5748)} it therefore{G3756}{G3844}{G5124} not{G3756} of{G1537} the body{G4983}?

16 And{G2532} if{G1437} the ear{G3775} shall say{G2036}{(G5632)}, Because{G3754} I am{G1510}{(G5748)} not{G3756} the eye{G3788}, I am{G1510}{(G5748)} not{G3756} of{G1537} the body{G4983}; is{G2076}{(G5748)} it therefore{G3756}{G3844}{G5124} not{G3756} of{G1537} the body{G4983}?

17 If{G1487} the whole{G3650} body{G4983} were an eye{G3788}, where{G4226} were the hearing{G189}? If{G1487} the whole{G3650} were hearing{G189}, where{G4226} were the smelling{G3750}?

18 But{G1161} now{G3570} hath{G5087} God{G2316} set{G5087}{(G5639)} the members{G3196} every{G1538} one{G1520} of them{G846} in{G1722} the body{G4983}, as{G2531} it hath pleased him{G2309}{(G5656)}.

19 And{G1161} if{G1487} they were{G2258}{(G5713)} all{G3956} one{G1520} member{G3196}, where{G4226} were the body{G4983}?

20 But{G1161} now{G3568}{G3303} are they many{G4183} members{G3196}, yet but{G1161} one{G1520} body{G4983}.

21 And{G1161} the eye{G3788} cannot{G3756}{G1410}{(G5736)} say{G2036}{(G5629)} unto the hand{G5495}, I have{G2192}{(G5719)} no{G3756} need{G5532} of thee{G4675}: nor{G2228} again{G3825} the head{G2776} to the feet{G4228}, I have{G2192}{(G5719)} no{G3756} need{G5532} of you{G5216}.

22 Nay{G235}, much{G4183} more{G3123} those members{G3196} of the body{G4983}, which seem{G1380}{(G5723)} to be{G5225}{(G5721)} more feeble{G772}, are{G2076}{(G5748)} necessary{G316}:

23 And{G2532} those{G3739} members of the body{G4983}, which we think{G1380}{(G5719)} to be{G1511}{(G5750)} less honourable{G820}, upon these{G5125} we bestow{G4060}{(G5719)} more abundant{G4055} honour{G5092}; and{G2532} our{G2257} uncomely{G809} parts have{G2192}{(G5719)} more abundant{G4055} comeliness{G2157}.

24 For{G1161} our{G2257} comely{G2158} parts have{G2192}{(G5719)} no{G3756} need{G5532}: but{G235} God{G2316} hath tempered{G4786} the body{G4983} together{G4786}{(G5656)}, having given{G1325}{(G5631)} more abundant{G4055} honour{G5092} to that part which lacked{G5302}{(G5746)}:

25 That{G3363} there should be{G5600}{(G5753)} no{G3363} schism{G4978} in{G1722} the body{G4983}; but{G235} that the members{G3196} should have{G3309} the same{G846} care{G3309}{(G5725)} one for{G5228} another{G240}.

26 And{G2532} whether{G1535} one{G1520} member{G3196} suffer{G3958}{(G5719)}, all{G3956} the members{G3196} suffer with it{G4841}{(G5719)}; or{G1535} one{G1520} member{G3196} be honoured{G1392}{(G5743)}, all{G3956} the members{G3196} rejoice with it{G4796}{(G5719)}.

27 Now{G1161} ye{G5210} are{G2075}{(G5748)} the body{G4983} of Christ{G5547}, and{G2532} members{G3196} in{G1537} particular{G3313}.

28 And{G2532}{G3739} God{G2316} hath set{G5087}{(G5639)} some{G3303} in{G1722} the church{G1577}, first{G4412} apostles{G652}, secondarily{G1208} prophets{G4396}, thirdly{G5154} teachers{G1320}, after that{G1899} miracles{G1411}, then{G1534} gifts{G5486} of healings{G2386}, helps{G484}, governments{G2941}, diversities{G1085} of tongues{G1100}.

29 Are all{G3361}{G3956} apostles{G652}? are all{G3361}{G3956} prophets{G4396}? are all{G3361}{G3956} teachers{G1320}? are all{G3361}{G3956} workers of miracles{G1411}?

30 Have{G3361}{G2192}{(G5719)} all{G3956} the gifts{G5486} of healing{G2386}? do all{G3956} speak{G3361}{G2980}{(G5719)} with tongues{G1100}? do{G3361} all{G3956} interpret{G1329}{(G5719)}?

31 But{G1161} covet earnestly{G2206}{(G5720)} the best{G2909} gifts{G5486}: and{G2532} yet{G2089} shew I{G1166}{(G5719)} unto you{G5213} a more{G2596} excellent{G5236} way{G3598}.
