Глава 12

  • 1. But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
  • 2. Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.
  • 3. I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in [the power of the] Spirit of God, says, Curse [on] Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in [the power of the] Holy Spirit.
  • 4. But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;
  • 5. and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;
  • 6. and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.
  • 7. But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.
  • 8. For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
  • 9. and to a different one faith, in [the power of] the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in [the power of] the same Spirit;
  • 10. and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues.
  • 11. But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.
  • 12. For even as the body is one and has many members, but all the members of the body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ.
  • 13. For also in [the power of] one Spirit *we* have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit.
  • 14. For also the body is not one member but many.
  • 15. If the foot say, Because I am not a hand I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
  • 16. And if the ear say, Because I am not an eye I am not of the body, is it on account of this not indeed of the body?
  • 17. If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
  • 18. But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].
  • 19. But if all were one member, where the body?
  • 20. But now the members [are] many, and the body one.
  • 21. The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you.
  • 22. But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
  • 23. and those [parts] of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;
  • 24. but our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;
  • 25. that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.
  • 26. And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].
  • 27. Now *ye* are Christ's body, and members in particular.
  • 28. And God has set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of tongues.
  • 29. [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?
  • 30. have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
  • 31. But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.
