1 Corinthians 12

12Now ^aconcerning spiritual gifts, brethren, ^bI would not have you ignorant. ²Ye know that ^cye were Gentiles, ^dcarried away unto these ^edumb idols, even as ye were led. ³Wherefore I give you to understand, that ^fno man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus ^||accursed: and that ^gno man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. ⁴Now ^hthere are diversities of gifts, but ⁱthe same Spirit. ⁵And ^kthere are ^ldifferences of ^||administrations, but ⁱthe same Lord. ⁶And there are diversities of ^moperations, but it is ⁱthe same God which worketh all in ⁿall. ^7oBut the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. ⁸For to one is given by the Spirit the word of ^pwisdom; to another the word of ^qknowledge by the same Spirit; ⁹To another ^rfaith ^sby the same Spirit; to another ^tthe gifts of healing by the same Spirit; ¹⁰To another the ^mworking of ^umiracles; to another ^xprophecy; to another ^ydiscerning of spirits; to another ^zdivers kinds of tongues; to another ^athe interpretation of tongues: ¹¹But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, ^aadividing to every man severally ^bas he will.

¹²For ^cas the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, ^cbeing many, are one body: ^dso also is Christ. ¹³For ^eby one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, ^fwhether we be Jews or ^†Gentiles, ^fwhether we be bond or free; and ^ghave been all made to drink into ^hone Spirit. ¹⁴For the body is not one member, but many. ¹⁵If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? ¹⁶And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? ¹⁷If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? ¹⁸But now ⁱhath God set the members every one of them in the body, ^bas ^jit hath pleased him. ¹⁹And if they were all one member, where were the body? ²⁰But now are they ^cmany members, yet but one body. ²¹And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. ²²Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: ²³And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we ^||bestow more abundant honour; and our ^kuncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. ²⁴For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: ²⁵That there should be no ^||schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. ²⁶And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members ^lrejoice with it. ²⁷Now ^dmye are the body of Christ, and ⁿmembers ^oin particular.

²⁸And ⁱGod hath set some in the church, first ^pqapostles, secondarily ^pqrprophets, thirdly ^pteachers, after that ^smiracles, then ^tgifts of healings, ^uhelps, ^xgovernments, ^||diversities of tongues. ²⁹Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all ^||workers of miracles? ³⁰Have all the ^tgifts of healing? ^ydo all speak with tongues? ^ydo all interpret? ³¹But ^zcovet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
