1 Corinthians - douay rheims

Chapter 12

¹ NOW concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
² You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.
³ Wherefore 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.
⁴ Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit;
⁵ And there are diversities of ministries, but the same Lord;
⁶ And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.
⁷ And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit.
⁸ To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
⁹ To another, faith in the same spirit; to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit;
¹⁰ To 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.
¹¹ But all these things one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.
¹² For 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.
¹³ For 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.
¹⁴ For the body also is not one member, but many.
¹⁵ If the foot should say, because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body ?
¹⁶ And if the ear should say, because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body ?
¹⁷ If the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
¹⁸ But now God hath set the members every one of them in the body as it hath pleased him.
¹⁹ And if they all were one member, where would be the body?
²⁰ But now there are many members indeed, yet one body.
²¹ And 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.
²² Yea, much more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body, are more necessary.
²³ And 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.
²⁴ But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour,
²⁵ That there might be no schism in the body; but the members might be mutually careful one for another.
²⁶ And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it; or if one member glory, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ, and members of member.
²⁸ And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors; after that miracles; then the graces of healing, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.
²⁹ Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors?
³⁰ Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
³¹ But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.

Chapter 12

¹ Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
² Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
³ Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God, calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.
⁴ Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
⁵ And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
⁶ And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh all in all.
⁷ But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man for profit.
⁸ For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another, the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
⁹ To another, faith by the same Spirit; to another, the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
¹⁰ To another, the working of miracles; to another, prophecy; to another, discerning of spirits; to another, divers kinds of languages; to another, the interpretation of languages:
¹¹ But all these worketh that one and the same Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
¹² For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
¹³ For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
¹⁴ For the body is not one member, but many.
¹⁵ If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁶ And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
¹⁷ If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
¹⁸ But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
¹⁹ And if they were all one member, where were the body?
²⁰ But now are they many members, yet but one body.
²¹ And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
²² Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
²³ And those members 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 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked:
²⁵ That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
²⁶ And thus if one member suffers all the members suffer with it; or, if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷ Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
²⁸ And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, next miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of languages.
²⁹ Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
³⁰ Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak in languages? do all interpret?
³¹ But covet earnestly the best gifts. And yet I show to you a more excellent way.

Chapter 12

¹ concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don't want you to be ignorant.
² know that when you were heathen, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
³ 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 there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
⁵ are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
⁶ are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
⁷ to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
⁸ to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
⁹ another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit;
¹⁰ 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 the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
¹² 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 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 the body is not one member, but many.
¹⁵ 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 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 the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?
¹⁸ now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.
¹⁹ they were all one member, where would the body be?
²⁰ now they are many members, but one body.
²¹ 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 much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
²³ 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 our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,
²⁵ there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
²⁶ one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. Or when one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷ you are the body of Christ, and members individually.
²⁸ 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 all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
³⁰ all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?
³¹ earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.

Chapter 12

¹ But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
² Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.
³ I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in [the power of the] Spirit of God, says, Curse [on] Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in [the power of the] Holy Spirit.
⁴ But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;
⁵ and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;
⁶ and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.
⁷ But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.
⁸ For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
⁹ and 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;
¹⁰ and 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.
¹¹ But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.
¹² For 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.
¹³ For 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.
¹⁴ For also the body is not one member but many.
¹⁵ If 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?
¹⁶ And 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?
¹⁷ If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
¹⁸ But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].
¹⁹ But if all were one member, where the body?
²⁰ But now the members [are] many, and the body one.
²¹ The 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.
²² But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
²³ and 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;
²⁴ but our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;
²⁵ that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.
²⁶ And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].
²⁷ Now *ye* are Christ's body, and members in particular.
²⁸ And God has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues.
²⁹ [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?
³⁰ have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
³¹ But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.

Chapter 12

¹ Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
² Ye know that when ye were Gentiles [ye were] led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might led.
³ 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 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
⁵ And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord.
⁶ And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all.
⁷ But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal.
⁸ 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 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;
¹⁰ 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 but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.
¹² 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 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 For the body is not one member, but many.
¹⁵ 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 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 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
¹⁸ 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 But now they are many members, but one body.
²¹ 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 Nay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary:
²³ 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 whereas our comely [parts] have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that [part] which lacked;
²⁵ that there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.
²⁶ And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or [one] member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
²⁷ Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof.
²⁸ 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 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all [workers of] miracles?
³⁰ have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
³¹ But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you.

Chapter 12

¹ But about the things of the spirit, my brothers, it is not right for you to be without teaching.
² You are conscious that when you were Gentiles, in whatever way you were guided, you went after images without voice or power.
³ So it is my desire for you to be clear about this; that no one is able to say by the Spirit of God that Jesus is cursed; and no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.
⁴ Now there are different qualities given to men, but the same Spirit.
⁵ And there are different sorts of servants, but the same Lord.
⁶ And there are different operations, but the same God, who is working all things in all.
⁷ But to every man some form of the Spirit's working is given for the common good.
⁸ For to one are given words of wisdom through the Spirit; and to another words of knowledge through the same Spirit:
⁹ To another faith in the same Spirit; and to another the power of taking away disease, by the one Spirit;
¹⁰ And to another the power of working wonders; and to another the prophet's word; and to another the power of testing spirits; to another different sorts of tongues; and to another the power of making clear the sense of the tongues:
¹¹ But all these are the operations of the one and the same Spirit, giving to every man separately as his pleasure is.
¹² For as the body is one, and has a number of parts, and all the parts make one body, so is Christ.
¹³ For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit.
¹⁴ For the body is not one part, but a number of parts.
¹⁵ If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not a part of the body; it is no less a part of the body.
¹⁶ And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not a part of the body; it is a part of the body all the same.
¹⁷ If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? if all was hearing, where would be the smelling?
¹⁸ But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.
¹⁹ And if they were all one part, where would the body be?
²⁰ But now they are all different parts, but one body.
²¹ And the eye may not say to the hand, I have no need of you: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
²² No, those parts which seem to be feeble are the more necessary;
²³ And to those parts of the body which seem to have less honour we give all the more honour; and to those parts of the body which are a cause of shame to us we give the greater respect;
²⁴ But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;
²⁵ So that there might be no division in the body; but all the parts might have the same care for one another.
²⁶ And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.
²⁷ Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.
²⁸ And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.
²⁹ Are all Apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? have all the power of working wonders?
³⁰ Are all able to take away disease? have all the power of tongues? are all able to give their sense?
³¹ But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.
