1 Corinthians 12

1 Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed.

1 弟兄姊妹，谈到圣灵的恩赐，我不希望你们无知。

2 You know that when you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.

2 你们知道，自己在信主前曾受到迷惑和引诱去拜不会说话的偶像。

3 Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.

3 因此我希望你们知道，一个被上帝的灵感动的人绝不会说“耶稣该受咒诅”；若不是受了圣灵的感动，没有人会说“耶稣是主”。

4 There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.

4 恩赐各有不同，但圣灵是同一位。

5 There are different ministries, but the same Lord.

5 事奉各有不同，但主是同一位。

6 There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all people.

6 工作各有不同，但上帝是同一位，祂在众人当中成就万事。

7 Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.

7 圣灵给各人不同的恩赐为要使众人得益处。

8 To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by the same Spirit,

8 这人从圣灵领受智慧的话，那人从圣灵领受知识；

9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,

9 圣灵赐这人信心，赐那人医病的恩赐；

10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in various tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.

10 圣灵使这人能行神迹，使那人能做先知讲道；使这人能辨别诸灵，使那人能说方言 ，又使另一人能翻译方言。

11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines.

11 这一切都是同一位圣灵所赐的，是祂按自己的旨意分别赐给各人的。

12 The body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.

12 这如同一个身体有许多肢体，肢体虽多，仍同属一个身体。基督的身体也是这样。

13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free, and we were all given one Spirit to drink.

13 不论是犹太人或希腊人，是奴隶或自由人，我们都领受了同一位圣灵的洗礼，归入了同一个身体，同饮一位圣灵。

14 For the body does not consist of one part, but of many.

14 人的身体并非只有一个肢体，而是由许多肢体组成的。

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.

15 如果脚说：“我不是手，所以我不属于身体”，难道它就因此不属于身体吗？

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.

16 如果耳朵说：“我不是眼睛，所以我不属于身体，”难道它就因此不属于身体吗？

17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?

17 如果整个身体是一只眼睛，哪里有听觉呢？如果整个身体是一只耳朵，哪里有嗅觉呢？

18 But in fact, God has arranged the members of the body, every one of them, according to His design.

18 其实，上帝按自己的旨意将各个肢体安置在身体上了。

19 If they were all one part, where would the body be?

19 全身如果只有一个肢体，还会是身体吗？

20 As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

20 如今肢体虽多，但身体只有一个。

21 The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you.” Nor can the head say to the feet, “I do not need you.”

21 眼睛不能对手说：“我不需要你。”头也不能对脚说：“我不需要你。”

22 On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,

22 相反，看起来不太重要的肢体其实是不可或缺的。

23 and the parts we consider less honorable, we treat with greater honor. And our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,

23 我们认为身体上不体面的肢体，越要加以美化；不雅观的肢体，越要精心呵护。

24 whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has composed the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,

24 我们身上体面的肢体用不着美化。上帝把身体的各肢体安排在一起，使那些不体面的肢体更体面，

25 so that there should be no division in the body, but that its members should have mutual concern for one another.

25 这样身体各肢体才可以彼此相顾，不会分门别类。

26 If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.

26 如果一个肢体感到痛苦，全身也一同受苦。如果一个肢体得到荣耀，全身也一同喜乐。

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.

27 你们就是基督的身体，并且各自都是身体的肢体。

28 And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, and those with gifts of healing, helping, administration, and various tongues.

28 上帝在教会中设立的第一是使徒，第二是先知，第三是教师，其次是行神迹的，然后是有医病恩赐的，帮助别人的，管理事务的，说各种方言的。

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?

29 岂是都做使徒吗？都做先知吗？都做教师吗？都行神迹吗？

30 Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?

30 都有医病的恩赐吗？都会说方言吗？都会翻译方言吗？

31 But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way.

31 你们应该热心追求更大的恩赐。 现在，我要将一条奇妙无比的道路指示你们！
