ASV 1 Corinthians Chapter 12
12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. 12:2 Ye know that when ye were Gentiles ye were led away unto those dumb idols, howsoever ye might led. 12:3 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. 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 12:5 And there are diversities of ministrations, and the same Lord. 12:6 And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who worketh all things in all. 12:7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal. 12:8 For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit: 12:9 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit; 12:10 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: 12:11 but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will. 12:12 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. 12:13 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. 12:14 For the body is not one member, but many. 12:15 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. 12:16 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. 12:17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 12:18 But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him. 12:19 And if they were all one member, where were the body? 12:20 But now they are many members, but one body. 12:21 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. 12:22 Nay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary: 12:23 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; 12:24 whereas our comely parts have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that part which lacked; 12:25 that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 12:26 And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and severally members thereof. 12:28 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. 12:29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 12:30 have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? 12:31 But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you.
