1 Ukorintiyawa 12

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

But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.

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

Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.

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.

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 Nene unizu nfip migangang duku, a Nfip mirume

But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;

5 . Nituawe di ngangang, a Cikilari urum.

and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;

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

and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.

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

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

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

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

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

But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.

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

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 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 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 Bara na kidowe di kirumari ba, amma ki karin.

For also the body is not one member but many.

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

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

If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?

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

But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].

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

But if all were one member, where the body?

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

But now the members [are] many, and the body one.

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

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

But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are 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 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 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 our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;

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

that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for 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 one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].

27 Nengene anung kidowo in Kristiari abiri ngangang kidowo me.

Now ye are Christ's body, and members in particular.

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 set certain in the assembly: first, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers; then miraculous powers; then gifts of healings; helps; governments; kinds of 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? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?

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?

have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

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

But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.
