1 Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brothers, I would not have you{+} ignorant.
2 You{+} know that when you{+} were Gentiles [you{+} were] led away to those mute idols, however you{+} might be led.
3 Therefore I make known to you{+}, that no man speaking in the Spirit of God says, Accursed Jesus; and no man can say, Lord Jesus, but in the Holy Spirit.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are diversities of servings, and the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
7 But to each is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit as well.
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:
9 to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;
10 and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another [diverse] kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues:
11 but the one and the same Spirit works all these, dividing to each individually even as he wills.
12 For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.
13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free; and were all made to drink of one Spirit.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
15 If the foot will say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.
16 And if the ear will say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; it is not therefore not of the body.
17 If the whole body is an eye, where is the hearing? If the whole is hearing, where is the smelling?
18 But now God has set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased him.
19 And if there is only one member, where is the body?
20 But now there are many members, but one body.
21 And the eye can't say to the hand, I have no need of you: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you{+}.
22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary:
23 and those [parts] of the body, which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely [parts] have more abundant comeliness;
24 whereas our comely [parts] have no need: but God tempered the body together, giving more abundant honor to that [part] which lacked;
25 that there should be no schism in the body; but [that] the members should have the same care one for another.
26 And whether one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
27 Now you{+} are the body of Christ, and severally members of it.
28 And God has set some in the church, first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, [diverse] kinds of tongues.
29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all [workers of] miracles?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
31 But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way I show to you{+}.
