1 Ukorintiyawa 12

1 Kitene nfilizunu nfip milau, nuana nilime nin nishono, na ndi nin su iso nin kulon ghe ba.

But about the things of the spirit, my brothers, it is not right for you to be without teaching.

2 Iyiru nenge kubi ko na iwa di anan sali fiu Kutellẹ, iwa wunu minu udu kiti ticil mituri na iwa dofin nij ghinu.

You are conscious that when you were Gentiles, in whatever way you were guided, you went after images without voice or power.

3 Bara nani ndi nin su iyinin na umon masu uliru nin Fip Kutellẹ a woro “Yisa unan la'anari,” anani na umon wasa a woro “Yisa Cikilari,” se nin Nfip milau.

So it is my desire for you to be clear about this; that no one is able to say by the Spirit of God that Jesus is cursed; and no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.

4 Nene unizu nfip migangang duku, a Nfip mirume

Now there are different qualities given to men, but the same Spirit.

5 . Nituawe di ngangang, a Cikilari urum.

And there are different sorts of servants, but the same Lord.

6 A nit wa duku ngangang, nani Kutellẹ kurumere nati kogha uni yinin use nani.

And there are different operations, but the same God, who is working all things in all.

7 Nene kogha ina nighe nkanang Nfip milau bara ulinbun nkogha.

But to every man some form of the Spirit's working is given for the common good.

8 Bara kiti nmon ana ni Nfip nliru nhikima, a mn tutung agbulang licasarak nan nya Nfip mirume.

For to one are given words of wisdom through the Spirit; and to another words of knowledge through the same Spirit:

9 Nan nya Nfip mirume ana ni uyinnu sa uyenu, a umn ufillun Nfip nshizunu nin tikonu.

To another faith in the same Spirit; and to another the power of taking away disease, by the one Spirit;

10 Kiti nmong nituwa tigoh, kiti nmon uanabci, kiting mong tutung uyinu maferuferu nfip, kitinmon tilem ngangang a kiti nmon tutung ukpilizu tilem tilem.

And to another the power of working wonders; and to another the prophet's word; and to another the power of testing spirits; to another different sorts of tongues; and to another the power of making clear the sense of the tongues:

11 Vat nani Nfip mirumere din su katwa nan na mine, adin nizu kogha ku ussamme, nafo na ame nfere.

But all these are the operations of the one and the same Spirit, giving to every man separately as his pleasure is.

12 Nafo na kidowe di kirum nin niti nitiku gbardang tutung vat nitinite nin kidowo kirumere, nanere Kriste di.

For as the body is one, and has a number of parts, and all the parts make one body, so is Christ.

13 Nafo na udi nan nya Nfip mirume iwa shintin nari vat nan nya kidowo kirume, Ayahudawa sa Ahelenawa, sa Acin sa nono kilari, iwa tinari vat tisono nan nya Nfip mirume.

For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit.

14 Bara na kidowe di kirumari ba, amma ki karin.

For the body is not one part, but a number of parts.

15 Kubunu nwa woro, “Na meng ucharari ba, na meng di kubiri kidowo ba,” na uso na meng kidowa ba.

If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not a part of the body; it is no less a part of the body.

16 Kutuf nwa kuru kuworo “Na meng liyiziari ba, na mmyen nin duku nin kidowo ba,” na uso na ame kubiri kidowari ba.

And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not a part of the body; it is a part of the body all the same.

17 Ankuru kidowe vat liyiziari, ulanzu wa yutu nweri? Andi kidowe vat kutufari, ulanzu kuyya wa yitu nweri?

If all the body was an eye, where would be the hearing? if all was hearing, where would be the smelling?

18 Vat nani Kutellẹ na cioe ko kome kubiri kidowo kiti kanga na ame na di nin suwe.

But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.

19 Andi tutung kidowe di kubiri kurumari, kidowe wa yitu nwe?

And if they were all one part, where would the body be?

20 Negene idi niti niti gbardang, amma kidowe kirumari cas.

But now they are all different parts, but one body.

21 Na lizi wasa li woro ucara “Na ndi nin bukatafe ba,'' A na liti ma bellu kubunu, “Na ndi nin bukata fe ba,”

And the eye may not say to the hand, I have no need of you: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.

22 Bara abiri kidowo alenge na tidin yenju fo na ni dinin katwa ba, ni di mun kang.

No, those parts which seem to be feeble are the more necessary;

23 Anin abiri kidowe na tidin yenju nafo na imon icine ba, na ti ni ani ngongong, anin abiri alenge na ti sali sa uyenju tini ani ughantinu kang.

And to those parts of the body which seem to have less honour we give all the more honour; and to those parts of the body which are a cause of shame to us we give the greater respect;

24 Nengene abiri alenge na a sali nin bellen ghatinu, ina malu ghatinuani, negene Kutellẹ na malu udofuzu anin vat ligowe, anin ghantina kang alenge na isali mun.

But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;

25 Ana su nani bara iwa se usalin nmunu nati nan nya kidowe, bara abirie nan mino ati, usu mine so nani urume.

So that there might be no division in the body; but all the parts might have the same care for one another.

26 Nani kubiri kurum nwa lanza ukul, vat ngisin nabiri lanza ligowe nin kone. Sa nkon kubiri nwase ughanitinu, ngisine su liburi libo ligowe nin kunin.

And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.

27 Nengene anung kidowo in Kristiari abiri ngangang kidowo me.

Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.

28 Kutellẹ na fere nan nya nikilisiyẹ ucizune anan kadura, a Anabawa, a Pasto, anan tat anan dursuzu ni nyerte nin na lenge na idin su nitwa nin likara Kutellẹ, nin nanan shizinu nin tikonu, nin nalege na din buzunu anit, nan nalenge na idin su nitwa nan nya ti wofis, nan na lenge na idin bellu tilen ngangang.

And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.

29 Vat bite anan kadurarie? Vat bite a Pastoarie? Vat bite anan dursuzu niyertearie? Sa vat bite din su nitwa nin likara Kutellẹ?

Are all Apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? have all the power of working wonders?

30 Vat bite di nin fillu nshizunu nin tikonua? Vat bite din su uliru nin tilen ugangangha? Vat bite din kpiluzu uliru nin tilen ugangagha?

Are all able to take away disease? have all the power of tongues? are all able to give their sense?

31 Na tisu ntok nnizu Kutellẹ ugbardang. Meng ma nin dursu minu libau longo na likati vat nin lau.

But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.
