1 Corinthians 12

1Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be ignorant:

περι δε των πνευματικων, αδελφοι, ου θελω υμας αγνοειν.

2You know that you were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, however you were led.

οιδατε οτι, οτε εθνη ητε, προς τα ειδωλα τα αφωνα ως αν ηγεσθε απαγομενοι.

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

διο γνωριζω υμιν οτι ουδεις εν πνευματι θεου λαλων λεγει αναθεμα ιησουν, και ουδεις δυναται ειπειν κυριον ιησουν ει μη εν πνευματι αγιω.

4There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

διαιρεσεις δε χαρισματων εισιν, το δε αυτο πνευμα·

5There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

και διαιρεσεις διακονιων εισιν, και ο αυτος κυριος·

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

και διαιρεσεις ενεργηματων εισιν, ο δε αυτος εστιν θεος, ο ενεργων τα παντα εν πασιν.

7But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all:

εκαστω δε διδοται η φανερωσις του πνευματος προς το συμφερον.

8for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

ω μεν γαρ δια του πνευματος διδοται λογος σοφιας, αλλω δε λογος γνωσεως κατα το αυτο πνευμα,

9to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

ετερω δε πιστις εν τω αυτω πνευματι, αλλω δε χαρισματα ιαματων εν τω αυτω πνευματι,

10to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

αλλω δε ενεργηματα δυναμεων, αλλω δε προφητεια, αλλω δε διακρισεις πνευματων, ετερω δε γενη γλωσσων, αλλω δε ερμηνεια γλωσσων·

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

παντα δε ταυτα ενεργει το εν και το αυτο πνευμα, διαιρουν ιδια εκαστω καθως βουλεται.

12For as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of that one body, being many, are one body, so also is Christ.

καθαπερ γαρ το σωμα εν εστιν και μελη εχει πολλα, παντα δε τα μελη του σωματος του ενος, πολλα οντα, εν εστιν σωμα, ουτως και ο χριστος·

13For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.

και γαρ εν ενι πνευματι ημεις παντες εις εν σωμα εβαπτισθημεν, ειτε ιουδαιοι ειτε ελληνες, ειτε δουλοι ειτε ελευθεροι, και παντες εις εν πνευμα εποτισθημεν.

14For in fact the body is not one member but many.

και γαρ το σωμα ουκ εστιν εν μελος, αλλα πολλα.

15If the foot should say, 'Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body,' is it therefore not of the body?

εαν ειπη ο πους, οτι ουκ ειμι χειρ, ουκ ειμι εκ του σωματος, — ου παρα τουτο ουκ εστιν εκ του σωματος;

16And if the ear should say, 'Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body,' is it therefore not of the body?

και εαν ειπη το ους, οτι ουκ ειμι οφθαλμος, ουκ ειμι εκ του σωματος, — ου παρα τουτο ουκ εστιν εκ του σωματος;

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

ει ολον το σωμα οφθαλμος, που η ακοη; ει ολον ακοη, που η οσφρησις;

18But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body just as He pleased.

νυνι δε ο θεος εθετο τα μελη εν εκαστον αυτων εν τω σωματι καθως ηθελησεν.

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

ει δε ην τα παντα εν μελος, που το σωμα;

20But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.

νυν δε πολλα μεν μελη, εν δε σωμα.

21And the eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you'; nor again the head to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'

ου δυναται δε οφθαλμος ειπειν τη χειρι· χρειαν σου ουκ εχω· η παλιν η κεφαλη τοις ποσιν· χρειαν υμων ουκ εχω·

22No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

αλλα πολλω μαλλον τα δοκουντα μελη του σωματος ασθενεστερα υπαρχειν αναγκαια εστιν,

23And those members of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow greater honor; and our unpresentable parts have greater modesty,

και α δοκουμεν ατιμοτερα ειναι του σωματος, τουτοις τιμην περισσοτεραν περιτιθεμεν, και τα ασχημονα ημων ευσχημοσυνην περισσοτεραν εχει,

24but our presentable parts have no need. But God composed the body, having given greater honor to that part which lacks it,

τα δε ευσχημονα ημων ου χρειαν εχει. αλλ ο θεος συνεκερασεν το σωμα, τω υστερουντι περισσοτεραν δους τιμην,

25that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

ινα μη η σχισμα εν τω σωματι, αλλα το αυτο υπερ αλληλων μεριμνωσιν τα μελη·

26And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

και ειτε πασχει εν μελος, συμπασχει παντα τα μελη, ειτε δοξαζεται εν μελος, συγχαιρει παντα τα μελη.

27Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

υμεις δε εστε σωμα χριστου και μελη εκ μερους.

28And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

και ους μεν εθετο ο θεος εν τη εκκλησια πρωτον αποστολους, δευτερον προφητας, τριτον διδασκαλους, επειτα δυναμεις, ειτα χαρισματα ιαματων, αντιληψεις, κυβερνησεις, γενη γλωσσων.

29Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?

μη παντες αποστολοι; μη παντες προφηται; μη παντες διδασκαλοι; μη παντες δυναμεις;

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

μη παντες χαρισματα εχουσιν ιαματων; μη παντες γλωσσαις λαλουσιν; μη παντες διερμηνευουσιν;

31But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you more excellent way.

ζηλουτε δε τα χαρισματα τα κρειττονα. και ετι καθ υπερβολην οδον υμιν δεικνυμι.
