| # Chapter 12
| Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
| Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
| 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.
| Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
| And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
| And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God who worketh all in all.
| But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man for profit.
| For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another, the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
| To another, faith by the same Spirit; to another, the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
| 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:
| But all these worketh that one and the same Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
| 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.
| 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.
| For the body is not one member, but many.
| If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
| 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?
| If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
| But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.
| And if they were all one member, where were the body?
| But now are they many members, yet but one body.
| 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.
| Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
| 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.
| For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked:
| That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
| And thus if one member suffers all the members suffer with it; or, if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
| Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
| 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.
| Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
| Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak in languages? do all interpret?
| But covet earnestly the best gifts. And yet I show to you a more excellent way.
