1But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.

1Now concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

2Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.

2You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.

3I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in [the power of the] Spirit ofGod, says, Curse [on] Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in [the power of the] Holy Spirit.

3Wherefore, I give you to understand that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say The Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost.

4But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;

4Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit.

5and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;

5And there are diversities of ministries. but the same Lord.

6and there are distinctions of operations, but the sameGod who operates all things in all.

6And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.

7But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.

7And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit.

8For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

8To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit:

9and to a different one faith, in [the power of] the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in [the power of] the same Spirit;

9To another, faith in the same spirit: to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit:

10and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues.

10To another the working of miracles: to another, prophecy: to another, the discerning of spirits: to another, diverse kinds of tongues: to another, interpretation of speeches.

11But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.

11But all these things, one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.

12For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ.

12For as the body is one and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body: So also is Christ.

13For also in [the power of] one Spirit we have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit.

13For in one Spirit were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free: and in one Spirit we have all been made to drink.

14For also the body is not one member but many.

14For the body also is not one member, but many.

15If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?

15If the foot should say: Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body: Is it therefore not of the Body?

16And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?

16And if the ear should 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 the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?

17If the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

18But nowGod has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].

18But now God hath set the members, every one of them, in the body as it hath pleased him.

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

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

20But now the members [are] many, and the body one.

20But now there are many members indeed, yet one body.

21The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you.

21And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help. Nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you.

22But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;

22Yea, much, more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body are more necessary

23and those [parts] of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;

23And such as we think to be the less honourable members of the body, about these we put more abundant honour: and those that are our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.

24but our comely [parts] have not need. ButGod has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;

24But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour.

25that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.

25That there might be no schism in the body: but the members might be mutually careful one for another.

26And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].

26And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it: or if one member glory, all the members rejoice with it.

27Now ye are Christ's body, and members in particular.

27Now you are the body of Christ and members of member.

28AndGod has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues.

28And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors: after that miracles: then the graces of healings, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.

29[Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?

29Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors?

30have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

30Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

31But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.

31But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.
