ABP - I Corinthians - 12

12:1  But concerning the spirituals, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant.

12:2  You know that when you were nations, [2to 3the 5idols 4voiceless 6even as 7you were led 1being led away].

12:3  Therefore I make known to you, that no one [2in 3spirit 4of God 1speaking] says, Jesus is anathema; and no one is able to say, Lord Jesus, except by [2spirit 1holy].

12:4  But [2divisions 3of favors 1there are], but the same spirit;

12:5  and [2divisions 3of services 1there are], and the same Lord.

12:6  And [2divisions 3of operations 1there are], [3the 1but 4same 2it is] God, the one operating all things in all.

12:7  And to each is given the open display of the spirit for advantage.

12:8  For indeed one through the spirit is given word of wisdom; and to another word of knowledge, according to the same spirit.

12:9  And to another belief, in the same spirit; and to another favors of cures, in the same spirit;

12:10  and to another operations of powers; and to another prophecy; and to another distinction of spirits; and to another types of languages; and to another translation of languages.

12:11  But all these operate by the one and the same spirit, dividing privately to each as he wills.

12:12  For just as the body is one, and [3members 1has 2many], but all the members of the [2body 1one], being many, are one body; so also the Christ.

12:13  For also in one spirit we all in one body were immersed, whether Jews, whether Greeks, whether slaves, whether free; and all into one spirit given to drink.

12:14  For also the body is not one member, but many.

12:15  If [3should say 1the 2foot] that, I am not a hand, I am not of the body; it is not because of this it is not of the body.

12:16  And if [3should say 1the 2ear] that, I am not an eye, I am not of the body; it is not because of this it is not of the body.

12:17  If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? If all was hearing, where would be the smelling?

12:18  But now God made the members, [2one 1each] of them in the body, as he wanted.

12:19  But if it was all were one member, where the body?

12:20  But now there are many members indeed, but one body.

12:21  [3is not 4able 1And 2the eye] to say to the hand, [2need 3of you 1I have no]; or again the head to the feet, [2need 3of you 1I have no].

12:22  But more rather, the [4which seem 1members 2of the 3body 6weaker 5to be] are important;

12:23  and the ones which seem to be exceedingly without honor of the body, these [3honor 2more extra 1we invest]; and [2indecent parts 1our 5decency 4more extra 3have];

12:24  but [2decent parts 1our 4no 5need 3have]. But God mixed together the body to the part lacking, [2more extra 1having given] honor,

12:25  that there might not be a split in the body, but [4the 5same 7for 8one another 3should have 6concern 1that the 2members].

12:26  And whether [3suffers 1one 2member], [4suffer along 1all 2the 3members]; whether [3be glorified 1one 2member], [4rejoice along 1all 2the 3members].

12:27  But you are the body of Christ, and members in turn.

12:28  And whom indeed [2appointed 1God] in the assembly, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, thereupon works of power, then favors of cures, assistance, guidance, types of languages.

12:29  Not all are apostles. Not all are prophets. Not all are teachers. Not all are works of power.

12:30  Not all [2favors 1have] of cures. Not all [2languages 1speak]. Not all interpret.

12:31  But be zealous for the [2favors 1better]. And yet [3that exceeds 2a way 1I will show to you].
