1 Corinthians 12

English Standard Version

1 Now concerning[1] spiritual gifts,[2] brothers,[3] I do not want you to be uninformed. (1Co 14:1)2 You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led. (Ps 115:5; Isa 46:7; Jer 10:5; Hab 2:18; 1Co 6:11; Eph 2:11; 1Th 1:9; 1Pe 4:3)3 Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one can say “Jesus is Lord” except in the Holy Spirit. (Mt 16:17; Joh 15:26; Ro 9:3; Ro 10:9; 1Jo 4:2)4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; (Ro 12:6; Eph 4:4; Heb 2:4)5 and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; (Ro 12:7; 1Co 12:4; Eph 4:11)6 and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. (1Co 12:4)7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. (Ro 12:3; 1Co 14:26; Eph 4:7)8 For to one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, (1Co 1:5; 1Co 2:6)9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, (1Co 12:28; 1Co 12:30; 1Co 13:2; 2Co 4:13)10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. (Mr 16:17; 1Co 12:28; 1Co 12:30; 1Co 13:2; 1Co 13:8; 1Co 14:1; 1Co 14:26; 1Co 14:29; Ga 3:5; 1Jo 4:1)11 All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills. (2Co 10:13; Heb 2:4)12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. (1Co 10:17; 1Co 12:27)13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves[4] or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. (Joh 7:37; Ro 6:5; Ga 3:28; Eph 2:13; Eph 2:18; Col 3:11)14 For the body does not consist of one member but of many.15 If the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.16 And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.17 If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?18 But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose. (Ro 12:3; 1Co 3:5; 1Co 12:11; 1Co 12:28)19 If all were a single member, where would the body be?20 As it is, there are many parts,[5] yet one body.21 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.”22 On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,23 and on those parts of the body that we think less honorable we bestow the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,24 which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving greater honor to the part that lacked it,25 that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same care for one another.26 If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together. (Ro 12:15)27 Now you are the body of Christ and individually members of it. (Ro 12:5; Eph 1:23; Eph 4:12; Eph 5:30; Col 1:24)28 And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, helping, administrating, and various kinds of tongues. (Ac 20:35; Ro 12:8; 1Co 12:9; 1Co 12:10; 1Co 12:18; Eph 2:20; Eph 3:5; Eph 4:11; 1Ti 5:17; Heb 13:7; Heb 13:17; Heb 13:24)29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?30 Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?31 But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way. (1Co 14:1; 1Co 14:39)

الكتاب المقدس

1 وَأَمَّا بِخُصُوصِ الْمَوَاهِبِ الرُّوحِيَّةِ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، فَلا أُرِيدُ أَنْ يَخْفَى عَلَيْكُمْ أَمْرُهَا.2 تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّكُمْ، عِنْدَمَا كُنْتُمْ مِنَ الأُمَمِ، كُنْتُمْ تَنْجَرِفُونَ إِلَى الأَصْنَامِ الْخَرْسَاءِ أَيَّمَا انْجِرَافٍ.3 لِذَلِكَ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا أَنَّهُ لَا أَحَدَ وَهُوَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِرُوحِ اللهِ يَقُولُ: «يَسُوعُ أَنَاثِيمَا (أَيْ مَلْعُونٌ)!» وَكَذَلِكَ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَقُولَ: «يَسُوعُ رَبٌّ» إِلّا بِالرُّوحِ الْقُدُسِ.4 هُنَاكَ مَوَاهِبُ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ، وَلَكِنَّ الرُّوحَ وَاحِدٌ.5 وَهُنَاكَ خِدْمَاتٌ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ، وَالرَّبُّ وَاحِدٌ.6 وَهُنَاكَ أَيْضاً أَعْمَالٌ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ وَاحِدٌ، وَهُوَ يَعْمَلُ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ فِي الْجَمِيعِ.7 وَإِنَّمَا كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ يُوهَبُ مَوْهِبَةً يَتَجَلَّى الرُّوحُ فِيهَا لأَجْلِ الْمَنْفَعَةِ.8 فَوَاحِدٌ يُوهَبُ، عَنْ طَرِيقِ الرُّوحِ، كَلامَ الْحِكْمَةِ، وَآخَرُ كَلامَ الْمَعْرِفَةِ وَفْقاً لِلرُّوحِ نَفْسِهِ،9 وَآخَرُ إِيمَاناً بِالرُّوحِ نَفْسِهِ. وَيُوهَبُ آخَرُ مَوْهِبَةَ شِفَاءِ الأَمْرَاضِ بِالرُّوحِ الْوَاحِدِ،10 وَآخَرُ عَمَلَ الْمُعْجِزَاتِ، وَآخَرُ النُّبُوءَةَ وَآخَرُ التَّمْيِيزَ بَيْنَ الأَرْوَاحِ، وَآخَرُ التَّكَلُّمَ بِلُغَاتٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ، وَآخَرُ تَرْجَمَةَ اللُّغَاتِ تِلْكَ.11 وَلَكِنَّ هَذَا كُلَّهُ يُشَغِّلُهُ الرُّوحُ الْوَاحِدُ نَفْسُهُ، مُوَزِّعاً الْمَوَاهِبَ، كَمَا يَشَاءُ، عَلَى كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ.12 فَكَمَا أَنَّ الْجَسَدَ وَاحِدٌ وَلَهُ أَعْضَاءُ كَثِيرَةٌ، وَلكِنَّ أَعْضَاءَ الْجَسَدِ كُلَّهَا تُشَكِّلُ جِسْماً وَاحِداً مَعَ أَنَّهَا كَثِيرَةٌ، فَكَذَلِكَ حَالُ الْمَسِيحِ أَيْضاً.13 فَإِنَّنَا، بِالرُّوحِ الْوَاحِدِ، قَدْ تَعَمَّدْنَا جَمِيعاً لِنَصِيرَ جَسَداً وَاحِداً، سَوَاءٌ كُنَّا يَهُوداً أَمْ يُونَانِيِّينَ، عَبِيداً أَمْ أَحْرَاراً، وَقَدْ سُقِينَا جَمِيعاً الرُّوحَ الْوَاحِدَ.14 فَلَيْسَ الْجَسَدُ عُضْواً وَاحِداً بَلْ مَجْمُوعَةُ أَعْضَاءَ.15 فَإِنْ قَالَتِ الرِّجْلُ: «لأَنِّي لَسْتُ يَداً، لَسْتُ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ!» فَهَلْ تُصْبِحُ مِنْ خَارِجِ الْجَسَدِ فِعْلاً؟16 وَإِنْ قَالَتِ الأُذُنُ: «لأَنِّي لَسْتُ عَيْناً، لَسْتُ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ!» فَهَلْ تُصْبِحُ مِنْ خَارِجِ الْجَسَدِ فِعْلاً؟17 فَلَوْ كَانَ الْجَسَدُ كُلُّهُ عَيْناً، فَكَيْفَ كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ؟ وَلَوْ كَانَ كُلُّهُ أُذُناً، فَكَيْفَ كُنَّا نَشُمُّ؟18 عَلَى أَنَّ اللهَ قَدْ رَتَّبَ كُلًّا مِنَ الأَعْضَاءِ فِي الْجَسَدِ كَمَا أَرَادَ.19 فَلَوْ كَانَتْ كُلُّهَا عُضْواً وَاحِداً، فَكَيْفَ يَتَكَوَّنُ الْجَسَدُ؟20 فَالْوَاقِعُ أَنَّ الأَعْضَاءَ كَثِيرَةٌ، وَالْجَسَدُ وَاحِدٌ.21 وَهَكَذَا، لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ الْعَيْنُ أَنْ تَقُولَ لِلْيَدِ: «أَنَا لَا أَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْكِ!» وَلا الرَّأْسُ أَنْ تَقُولَ لِلرِّجْلَيْنِ: «أَنَا لَا أَحْتَاجُ إِلَيْكُمَا!»22 بَلْ بِالأَحْرَى جِدّاً، أَعْضَاءُ الْجَسَدِ الَّتِي تَبْدُو أَضْعَفَ الأَعْضَاءِ هِيَ ضَرُورِيَّةٌ،23 وَتِلْكَ الَّتِي نَعْتَبِرُهَا أَقَلَّ مَا فِي الْجَسَدِ كَرَامَةً، نَكْسُوهَا بِإِكْرَامٍ أَوْفَرَ. وَالأَعْضَاءُ غَيْرُ اللائِقَةِ يَكُونُ لَهَا لِيَاقَةٌ أَوْفَرُ؛24 أَمَّا اللائِقَةُ، فَلا تَحْتَاجُ إِلَى ذَلِكَ. وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ أَحْكَمَ صُنْعَ الْجَسَدِ بِجُمْلَتِهِ، مُعْطِياً كَرَامَةً أَوْفَرَ لِمَا تَنْقُصُهُ الْكَرَامَةُ،25 لِكَيْ لَا يَكُونَ فِي الْجَسَدِ انْقِسَامٌ بَلْ يَكُونَ بَيْنَ الأَعْضَاءِ اهْتِمَامٌ وَاحِدٌ لِمَصْلَحَةِ الْجَسَدِ.26 فَحِينَ يُصِيبُ الأَلَمُ وَاحِداً مِنَ الأَعْضَاءِ، تَشْعُرُ الأَعْضَاءُ الْبَاقِيَةُ مَعَهُ بِالأَلَمِ. وَحِينَ يَنَالُ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الأَعْضَاءِ إِكْرَاماً، تَفْرَحُ مَعَهُ الأَعْضَاءُ الْبَاقِيَةُ.27 فَالْوَاقِعُ أَنَّكُمْ أَنْتُمْ جَمِيعاً جَسَدُ الْمَسِيحِ، وَأَعْضَاءٌ فِيهِ كُلٌّ بِمُفْرَدِهِ.28 وَقَدْ رَتَّبَ اللهُ فِي الْكَنِيسَةِ أَشْخَاصاً مَخْصُوصِينَ: أَوَّلاً الرُّسُلَ، ثَانِياً الأَنْبِيَاءَ، ثَالِثاً الْمُعَلِّمِينَ، وَبَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَصْحَابَ الْمَوَاهِبِ الْمُعْجِزِيَّةِ أَوْ مَوَاهِبِ الشِّفَاءِ أَوْ إِعَانَةِ الآخَرِينَ أَوْ تَدْبِيرِ الشُّؤُونِ أَوِ التَّكَلُّمِ بِاللُّغَاتِ الْمُخْتَلِفَةِ.29 فَهَلْ هُمْ جَمِيعاً رُسُلٌ؟ أَجَمِيعُهُمْ أَنْبِيَاءُ؟ أَجَمِيعُهُمْ مُعَلِّمُونَ؟ أَجَمِيعُهُمْ حَائِزُونَ عَلَى مَوَاهِبَ مُعْجِزِيَّةٍ؟30 أَجَمِيعُهُمْ يَمْلِكُونَ مَوَاهِبَ الشِّفَاءِ؟ أَجَمِيعُهُمْ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ بِلُغَاتٍ؟ أَجَمِيعُهُمْ يُتَرْجِمُونَ؟31 وَلكِنْ تَشَوَّقُوا إِلَى الْمَوَاهِبِ الْعُظْمَى. وَهَا أَنَا أَرْسُمُ لَكُمْ بَعْدُ طَرِيقاً أَفْضَلَ جِدّاً.
