121 Corinthians 12

1Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brethren, I would not have you ignorant.Select 1 Corinthians 12:1

2Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, even as ye were led.Select 1 Corinthians 12:2

3Wherefore 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.Select 1 Corinthians 12:3

4Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.Select 1 Corinthians 12:4

5And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.Select 1 Corinthians 12:5

6And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh all in all.Select 1 Corinthians 12:6

7But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man for profit.Select 1 Corinthians 12:7

8For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another, the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;Select 1 Corinthians 12:8

9To another, faith by the same Spirit; to another, the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;Select 1 Corinthians 12:9

10To 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:Select 1 Corinthians 12:10

11But all these worketh that one and the same Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.Select 1 Corinthians 12:11

12For 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.Select 1 Corinthians 12:12

13For 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.Select 1 Corinthians 12:13

14For the body is not one member, but many.Select 1 Corinthians 12:14

15If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?Select 1 Corinthians 12:15

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?Select 1 Corinthians 12:16

17If the whole body [were] an eye, where [were] the hearing? If the whole [were] hearing, where [were] the smelling?Select 1 Corinthians 12:17

18But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.Select 1 Corinthians 12:18

19And if they were all one member, where [were] the body?Select 1 Corinthians 12:19

20But now [are they] many members, yet but one body.Select 1 Corinthians 12:20

21And 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.Select 1 Corinthians 12:21

22Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:Select 1 Corinthians 12:22

23And 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.Select 1 Corinthians 12:23

24For our comely [parts] have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that [part] which lacked:Select 1 Corinthians 12:24

25That there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.Select 1 Corinthians 12:25

26And thus if one member suffers all the members suffer with it; or, if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.Select 1 Corinthians 12:26

27Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.Select 1 Corinthians 12:27

28And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, next miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of languages.Select 1 Corinthians 12:28

29[Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all workers of miracles?Select 1 Corinthians 12:29

30Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak in languages? do all interpret?Select 1 Corinthians 12:30

31But covet earnestly the best gifts. And yet I show to you a more excellent way.Select 1 Corinthians 12:31
