1Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I would not have you ignorant. 2You know that when you were Gentiles you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led. 3Therefore I make known to you, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God says, Yeshua is anathema; and no man can say, Yeshua is Lord, except in the Holy Spirit. 4Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord. 6And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all. 7But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: 9to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit; 10and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits: to another various kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues: 11but all these the one and the same Spirit works, distributing to each one individually even as he wills. 12For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Messiah. 13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slave or free; and were all made to drink of one Spirit. 14For the body is not one member, but many. 15If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; it is not for that reason not of the body. 16And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; it is not for that reason not of the body. 17If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be? 18But now God has set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him. 19And if they were all one member, where would the body be? 20But now they are many members, but one body. 21And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary: 23and those parts of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant presentability; 24whereas our presentable parts have no need: but God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to that part which lacked; 25that there should be no division in the body; but that the members should have the same care for one another. 26And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. 27Now you are the body of Messiah, and individually members of it. 28And God has set some in the assembly, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, various kinds of tongues. 29Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30do all have gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? 31But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover I show you a most excellent way.
