^{1 Ref} And concerning the spiritual things, brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant;

^{2 Ref} ye have known that ye were nations, unto the dumb idols -- as ye were led -- being carried away;

^{3 Ref} wherefore, I give you to understand that no one, in the Spirit of God speaking, saith Jesus `is' anathema, and no one is able to say Jesus `is' Lord, except in the Holy Spirit.

^{4 Ref} And there are diversities of gifts, and the same Spirit;

^{5 Ref} and there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord;

^{6 Ref} and there are diversities of workings, and it is the same God -- who is working the all in all.

^{7 Ref} And to each hath been given the manifestation of the Spirit for profit;

^{8 Ref} for to one through the Spirit hath been given a word of wisdom, and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

^{9 Ref} and to another faith in the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings in the same Spirit;

^{10 Ref} and to another in-workings of mighty deeds; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; and to another `divers' kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues:

^{11 Ref} and all these doth work the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each severally as he intendeth.

^{12 Ref} For, even as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also `is' the Christ,

^{13 Ref} for also in one Spirit we all to one body were baptized, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all into one Spirit were made to drink,

^{14 Ref} for also the body is not one member, but many;

^{15 Ref} if the foot may say, `Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body;

^{16 Ref} and if the ear may say, `Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body;' it is not, because of this, not of the body?

^{17 Ref} If the whole body `were' an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?

^{18 Ref} and now, God did set the members each one of them in the body, according as He willed,

¹⁹ and if all were one member, where the body?

^{20 Ref} and now, indeed, `are' many members, and one body;

^{21 Ref} and an eye is not able to say to the hand, `I have no need of thee;' nor again the head to the feet, `I have no need of you.'

^{22 Ref} But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,

^{23 Ref} and those that we think to be less honourable of the body, around these we put more abundant honour, and our unseemly things have seemliness more abundant,

^{24 Ref} and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,

^{25 Ref} that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,

^{26 Ref} and whether one member doth suffer, suffer with `it' do all the members, or one member is glorified, rejoice with `it' do all the members;

^{27 Ref} and ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

^{28 Ref} And some, indeed, did God set in the assembly, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, afterwards powers, afterwards gifts of healings, helpings, governings, divers kinds of tongues;

^{29 Ref} `are' all apostles? `are' all prophets? `are' all teachers? `are' all powers?

^{30 Ref} have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

^{31 Ref} and desire earnestly the better gifts; and yet a far excelling way do I shew to you:

^{1 Ref} Now concerning spiritual `gifts', brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

^{2 Ref} Ye know that when ye were Gentiles `ye were' led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might led.

^{3 Ref} Wherefore I make known unto you, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God saith, Jesus is anathema; and no man can say, Jesus is Lord, but in the Holy Spirit.

^{4 Ref} Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

^{5 Ref} And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord.

^{6 Ref} And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all.

^{7 Ref} But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal.

^{8 Ref} 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 Ref} to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;

^{10 Ref} and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another `divers' kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues:

^{11 Ref} but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.

^{12 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} For the body is not one member, but many.

^{15 Ref} If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.

^{16 Ref} And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.

^{17 Ref} If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?

^{18 Ref} 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 Ref} But now they are many members, but one body.

^{21 Ref} 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 Ref} Nay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary:

^{23 Ref} 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 comeliness;

^{24 Ref} whereas our comely `parts' have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that `part' which lacked;

^{25 Ref} that there should be no schism in the body; but `that' the members should have the same care one for another.

^{26 Ref} And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or `one' member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

^{27 Ref} Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof.

^{28 Ref} And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, `divers' kinds of tongues.

^{29 Ref} Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all `workers of' miracles?

^{30 Ref} have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

^{31 Ref} But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you.

^{1 Ref} Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don't want you to be ignorant.

^{2 Ref} You know that when you were heathen{or Gentiles}, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

^{3 Ref} Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God's Spirit says, "Jesus is accursed." No one can say, "Jesus is Lord," but by the Holy Spirit.

^{4 Ref} Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.

^{5 Ref} There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.

^{6 Ref} There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.

^{7 Ref} But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.

^{8 Ref} 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 Ref} to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit;

^{10 Ref} and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages.

^{11 Ref} But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

^{12 Ref} For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

^{13 Ref} For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.

^{14 Ref} For the body is not one member, but many.

^{15 Ref} If the foot would say, "Because I'm not the hand, I'm not part of the body," it is not therefore not part of the body.

^{16 Ref} If the ear would say, "Because I'm not the eye, I'm not part of the body," it's not therefore not part of the body.

^{17 Ref} If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?

^{18 Ref} But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

¹⁹ If they were all one member, where would the body be?

^{20 Ref} But now they are many members, but one body.

^{21 Ref} The eye can't tell the hand, "I have no need for you," or again the head to the feet, "I have no need for you."

^{22 Ref} No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

^{23 Ref} Those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, on those we bestow more abundant honor; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety;

^{24 Ref} whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,

^{25 Ref} that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

^{26 Ref} When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. Or when one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

^{27 Ref} Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

^{28 Ref} God has set some in the assembly: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.

^{29 Ref} Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?

^{30 Ref} Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?

^{31 Ref} But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
