1 Corinthians 12

1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.

Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he ngaahi foaki fakalaumālie, ʻe kāinga, ʻoku ʻikai ko hoku loto ke mou taʻeʻilo.

2 You know that when you were heathen, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

‌ʻOku mou ʻilo naʻa mou nofo ko e ngaahi Senitaile, naʻe ʻāvea ʻakimoutolu ki he ngaahi tamapua noa, ʻo hangē ko hono taki ʻakimoutolu.

3 Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Jesus is accursed.” No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.

Ko ia ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku lea ʻi he Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ʻe pehē ʻe ia, ko e malaʻia ʻa Sisu: pea ʻoku ʻikai ha taha te ne faʻa pehē, ko e ʻEiki ʻa Sisu, ka ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.

4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.

Pea ko eni, ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi foaki kehekehe, ka ko e Laumālie pe taha.

5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.

Pea ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi tauhi kehekehe, ka ko e ʻEiki pe taha.

6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God who works all things in all.

Pea ʻoku ai ʻae ngaahi ngāue kehekehe, ka ko e ʻOtua pe taha ʻoku fai kotoa pē ʻi he kakai kotoa pē.

7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.

Ka kuo foaki ʻae fakahā ʻoe Laumālie ki he tangata taki taha kotoa pē ke feʻaongaʻaki.

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,

He kuo foaki ki he tokotaha ʻi he Laumālie ʻae lea ʻoe poto; ki he tokotaha ʻae lea ʻoe ʻilo ʻi he Laumālie ko ia;

9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

Ki he tokotaha ʻae tui ʻi he Laumālie ko ia; ki he tokotaha ʻae foaki ʻoe fakamoʻui ʻi he Laumālie ko ia;

10 and to another workings of miracles, and to another prophecy, and to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of languages, and to another the interpretation of languages.

Ki he tokotaha ʻae fai ʻoe ngaahi mana; ki he tokotaha ʻae kikite; ki he tokotaha ʻae ʻilo ki he ngaahi laumālie; ki he tokotaha ʻae lea kehekehe; ki he tokotaha hono fakamatala ʻoe ngaahi lea:

11 But the one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

Ka ʻoku langaʻi eni kotoa pē ʻe he Laumālie pe taha ko ia, ʻo vahevahe taki taha ki he tangata kotoa pē ko ʻene faʻiteliha pe.

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.

He ʻoku hangē ʻoku taha pe ʻae sino, ka ʻoku lahi hono ngaahi kupu, pea ko e ngaahi kupu kotoa pē ʻoe sino pe taha ko ia ʻoku lahi, ka ko e sino pe taha ʻoku pehē pe foki ʻa Kalaisi.

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

He kuo tau papitaiso kotoa pē ʻi he Laumālie pe taha ki he sino pe taha, pe ko ha kakai Siu pe ko ha kakai Senitaile, ko ha pōpula pe ha tauʻatāina; pea naʻe fakainu ʻakitautolu kotoa pē ki he Laumālie pe taha.

14 For the body is not one member, but many.

He ʻoku ʻikai ko e kupu pe taha ʻae sino, ka ʻoku lahi.

15 If the foot would say, “Because I’m not the hand, I’m not part of the body,” it is not therefore not part of the body.

Kapau ʻe lea ʻae vaʻe, “Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ko e nima au, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe sino au;” pea ʻoku ʻikai ai ʻi he sino ia?

16 If the ear would say, “Because I’m not the eye, I’m not part of the body,” it’s not therefore not part of the body.

Pea kapau ʻe lea ʻae telinga, “Koeʻuhi ʻoku ʻikai ko e mata au, pea ʻoku ʻikai ʻoe sino au;” pea ʻoku ʻikai ai ʻi he sino ia?

17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?

Ka ne ko e mata ʻae sino kotoa, pea ʻe ʻi fē ʻae fanongo? Pea ka ne ko e fanongo ʻae kupu kotoa pē, pea ʻe ʻi fē ʻae nanamu?

18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

Ka ko eni, kuo fakahoko ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi kupu taki taha kotoa pē ʻi he sino, ko ʻene faʻiteliha pe ia.

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

Pea ka ne ko e kupu pe taha ʻaia kotoa pē, pea ʻe ʻi fē ʻae sino?

20 But now they are many members, but one body.

Ka ko eni, ko e ngaahi kupu ʻoku lahi ka ko e sino pe taha.

21 The eye can’t tell the hand, “I have no need for you,” or again the head to the feet, “I have no need for you.”

Pea ʻoku ʻikai faʻa lea ʻae mata ki he nima, “ʻOku ʻikai te ke ʻaonga kiate au:” pea pehē ʻe he ʻulu ki he vaʻe, “ʻOku ʻikai te mo ʻaonga kiate au.”

22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

‌ʻIkai, ka ko e ngaahi kupu ko ia ʻoe sino, ʻaia ʻoku matamatavaivai, ʻoku lahi hake hono ʻaonga:

23 Those parts of the body which we think to be less honorable, on those we bestow more abundant honor; and our unpresentable parts have more abundant modesty,

Pea ko e ngaahi kupu ko ia ʻoe sino, ʻoku tau mahalo ki ai ʻoku siʻi hifo ʻenau matamatalelei, ʻoku tau tokanga lahi ʻaupito ki ai; pea ko hotau ngaahi potu taʻematamatalelei ʻoku ai hono matamatalelei lahi hake ʻaupito.

24 while our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,

He ko hotau ngaahi potu matamatalelei, ʻoku ʻikai hanau masiva: ka kuo fakatatau fakataha ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae sino, ʻo ne foaki ʻae matamatalelei lahi hake ʻaupito ki he potu ko ia ʻoku masiva:

25 that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

Koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha mavahevahe ʻi he sino; ka koeʻuhi ke maʻu ʻae fetokangaʻaki pe ʻe he ngaahi kupu kotoa pe.

26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. When one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

Pea kapau ʻe mamahi ʻae kupu ʻe taha, ʻoku mamahi mo ia ʻae ngaahi kupu kotoa pē; pea ka fakahikihiki ʻae kupu ʻe taha, ʻoku fiefia mo ia ʻae kupu kotoa pē.

27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

Pea ko eni, ko e sino ʻo Kalaisi ʻakimoutolu, pea ko e ngaahi kupu taki taha.

28 God has set some in the assembly: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.

Pea kuo tuʻutuʻuni ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae niʻihi ʻi he siasi, ko e ʻuluaki ko e kau ʻaposetolo, ko hono ua ko e kau palōfita, ko hono tolu ko e kau akonaki, hoko mo ia ʻae kau fai meʻa mana, hoko mo e ngaahi foaki ʻoe fakamoʻui, mo e kau tokoni, mo e kau enginaki, mo kinautolu ʻoku ʻilo ʻae lea kehekehe.

29 Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?

He ko e ʻaposetolo kotoa pē? He ko e palōfita kotoa pē? He ko e akonaki kotoa pē? He ko e kau fai meʻa mana kotoa pē?

30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?

‌ʻOku maʻu kotoa pē ʻae ngaahi foaki ʻoe fakamoʻui? ʻOku lea kotoa pē ʻaki ʻae ngaahi lea kehekehe? ʻOku fakamatala lea kotoa pē?

31 But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.

Ke mou holi lahi ki he ngaahi foaki fungani lelei. Pea ʻoku ou toe fakahā kiate kimoutolu ʻae hala ʻoku lelei lahi.
