1 Now concerning the spiritual things, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.

2 Ye know that, while Gentiles, ye were being carried away to the voiceless idols, as ye were led.

3 Therefore I make known to you, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God says, Jesus is accursed, and no man can say, Jesus is Lord, except by Holy Spirit.

4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit.

5 And there are varieties of services, and the same Lord.

6 And there are varieties of functions, but it is the same God who works all in all.

7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each man toward that which is beneficial.

8 For to one, the word of wisdom is given through the Spirit, and to another, the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit,

9 to a different man, faith by the same Spirit, and to another, gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

10 and to another, workings of miracles, and to another, prophecy, and to another, discerning of spirits, and to a different man, kinds of tongues, and to another, the interpretation of tongues.

11 But the one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each man individually as it wills.

12 For just as the body is one and has many parts, and all the parts of the body, being many, are one body, so also is the Christ.

13 For also by one Spirit we are all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or freemen, and we were all made to drink into one Spirit.

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

15 If the foot should say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.

16 And if the ear should say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, it is not by this not of the body.

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

18 But now God has placed the parts, each one of them, in the body just as he intended.

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

20 But now of course there are many body-parts, 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 Instead, much more the parts of the body that seem to be more feeble are necessary.

23 And those things of the body presumed to be without esteem, we place around these more abundant worth. And our unpresentable parts have more abundant propriety,

24 whereas our presentable parts have no need. Instead, God united the body together, having given more abundant worth to the part that lacks,

25 so that there would be no schisms in the body, but that the parts would have the same care for each other.

26 And if one part suffers, all the parts suffer together, or one part is honored, all the parts rejoice together.

27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and body-parts individually.

28 And in the church God has placed men who are first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, kinds of tongues.

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all do miracles?

30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

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

1 In spirituall thinges brethren I wolde not have you ignoraunt.

2 Ye knowe that ye were gentyls and went youre wayes vnto domme ydoles even as ye were ledde.

3 Wherfore I declare vnto you that no man speakynge in the sprete of god defieth Iesus. Also no man can saye that Iesus is the lorde: but by the holy goost.

4 Ther are diversities of gyftes verely yet but one sprete.

5 And ther are differences of administracions and yet but one lorde.

6 And ther are divers maners of operacions and yet but one God which worketh all thinges that are wrought in all creatures.

7 The gyftes of ye sprete are geven to every man to proffit ye congregacion.

8 To one is geven thorow the spirite the vtteraunce of wisdome? To another is geven the vtteraunce of knowledge by ye same sprete.

9 To another is geuen fayth by ye same sprete. To another ye gyftes of healynge by the same sprete.

10 To another power to do myracles. To another prophesie? To another iudgement of spretes. To another divers tonges. To another the interpretacion of toges.

11 And these all worketh eve ye silfe same sprete devydynge to every man severall gyftes even as he will.

12 For as the body is one and hath many mebres and all the membres of one body though they be many yet are but one body: even so is Christ.

13 For in one sprete are we all baptysed to make one body whether we be Iewes or getyls whether we be bonde or fre: and have all dronke of one sprete.

14 For the body is not one member but many.

15 Yf the fote saye: I am not the honde therfore I am not of the body: is he therfore not of ye body:

16 And if ye eare saye I am not the eye: therfore I am not of the body: is he therfore not of the body?

17 If all the body were an eye where were then the eare? If all were hearynge: where were the smellynge?

18 But now hath god disposed the membres every one of them in the body at his awne pleasure.

19 If they were all one member: where were the body?

20 Now are ther many membres yet but one body.

21 And the eye can not saye vnto the honde I have no nede of the: nor ye heed also to the fete. I have no nede of you.

22 Ye rather a greate deale those mebres of the body which seme to be most feble are most necessary.

23 And apo those mebres of yt body which we thinke lest honest put we most honestie on. And oure vngodly parties have most beauty on.

24 For oure honest members nede it not. But God hath so disposed the body ad hath geven most honoure to that parte which laked

25 lest there shuld be eny stryfe in the body: but that the members shuld indifferetly care one for another.

26 And yf one member suffer all suffer with him: yf one member be had in honoure all members be glad also.

27 Ye are the body of Christ and members one of another.

28 And God hath also ordeyned in the congregacion fyrst the Apostels secodarely prophetes thyrdly teachers then the that do miracles: after that the gyftes of healynge helpers governers diversite of tonges.

29 Are all Apostles? Are all Prophetes? Are all teachers? Are all doars of miracles?

30 Have all the gyftes of healinge? Do all speake wt tonges? Do all interprete?

31 Covet after ye best giftes. Amd yet shewe I vnto you a moare excellent waye.
