1 Corinthians 12
1 But concerning spiritual [manifestations], brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant.
Manuca rhoek, mueihla ah na mangvawt uh ham ka ngaih moenih.
2 Ye know that when ye were [of the] nations [ye were] led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led.
Namtom rhoek bangla na om uh vaengah mueirhol olmueh taengla ngahngah m'mawt uh tih n'khuen uh te na ming uh.
3 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.
Pathen kah Mueihla neh aka cal loh, “Jesuh tah kosi ni,” a ti pawt te nangmih taengah kam phoe. Te dongah Mueihla Cim nen pawt atah, “Boeipa Jesuh,” a ti thai moenih.
4 But there are distinctions of gifts, but the same Spirit;
Te dongah kutdoe cungkuem om dae Mueihla tah amah boeiloeih ni.
5 and there are distinctions of services, and the same Lord;
Bibinah khaw a cungluem la om dae Boeipa tah amah boeiloeih ni.
6 and there are distinctions of operations, but the same God who operates all things in all.
Pongthohnah khaw a cungkuem la om dae Pathen amah te cungkuem dongah cungkuem la tueng.
7 But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit.
Tedae Mueihla kah a phoenah loh amih a rhoei nah ham rhip a paek coeng.
8 For to one, by the Spirit, is given [the] word of wisdom; and to another [the] word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
Pakhat te Mueihla loh cueihnah olka a paek tih, a tloe taengah Mueihla amah loh mingnah olka khaw,
9 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;
Mueihla amah loh a tloe tangnah, Mueihla pakhat loh a tloe taengah hoeihnah kutdoe,
10 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.
a tloe taengah thaomnah kah pongthohnah, a tloe taengah tonghma ol, a tloe taengah mueihla kah boelhkhoehnah, a tloe te namtom ol, pakhat te ol a kongnah a paek.
11 But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases.
Te dongah he boeih he Mueihla amah pakhat loh pakhat rhip taengah a tueng sak tih a ngaih bangla a tael pah.
12 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.
Pum tah pakhat la om tih pumrho muep om. Pum kah pumrho boeih loh muep om cakhaw a pum pakhat a om bangla Khrih khaw om van.
13 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.
Mamih khaw, Judah rhoek khaw, Greek rhoek khaw, Sal khaw, aka loeih khaw mueihla pakhat dongah pum pakhat la boeih n'nuem uh. Te dongah mueihla pakhat la boeih n'tul coeng.
14 For also the body is not one member but many.
Pum tah pakhat bueng van pawt tih pumrho muep om.
15 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?
Kho loh, “Kut te kai moenih, pum kah a hut la ka om moenih,” ti koinih he kongah pum kah koe la a om pawt moenih.
16 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?
Hna long khaw, “Mik te kai moenih, pum kah koe la ka om moenih,” ti koinih he kongah pum kah koe la a om pawt moenih.
17 If the whole body [were] an eye, where the hearing? if all hearing, where the smelling?
Pum tah mik la boeih om koinih hnavue tah melam a om eh? Hnavue la boeih om koinih a bova tah metlam a him eh?
18 But now God has set the members, each one of them in the body, according as it has pleased [him].
Tedae pumrho te Pathen loh rhip a khueh coeng. Amih pakhat rhip pum dongkah ham a ngaih ta.
19 But if all were one member, where the body?
Te dongah pumrho loh pakhat la boeih om koinih pum te melam a om eh?
20 But now the members [are] many, and the body one.
Tedae tahae ah pumrho loh yet ngawn cakhaw pum pakhat ni a om.
21 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.
Te dongah mik loh kut te, “Nang kan ngoe moenih,” te phoeiah lu loh kho te, “Nangmih kang ngoe moenih,” a ti thai moenih.
22 But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary;
Tedae pum dongkah pumrho muep la aka poek loh tattloel la lat om om tangkik.
23 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;
Pum kah sawtsit aka om la m'poek uh pumrho te khaw hinyahnah neh anah la n'thingcam uh. Mamih kah rhaidaeng long khaw thenrhuep a khueh khungdaeng.
24 but our comely [parts] have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to [the part] that lacked;
Tedae mamih kah hlangcong pumrho loh ngoe pawt cakhaw Pathen loh pum te a sombong tih aka vawt rhoek taengah hinyahnah muep a paek.
25 that there might be no division in the body, but that the members might have the same concern one for another.
Te daengah ni pum dongah paekboenah a om pawt eh. Tedae pumrho amah te pakhat ham khaw mawn puei saeh.
26 And if one member suffer, all the members suffer with [it]; and if one member be glorified, all the members rejoice with [it].
Te dongah pumrho pakhat loh a tloh atah pumrho loh boeih patang. Pumrho pakhat a thangpom atah pumrho boeih loh a omngaih puei.
27 Now ye are Christ's body, and members in particular.
Nangmih tah Khrih kah pum neh cungvang ah a pumrho la na om uh.
28 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.
Te dongah amih te Pathen loh hlangboel khuiah, lamhma la caeltueih rhoek, pabae ah tonghma rhoek, pathum ah saya rhoek neh thaomnah, hoeihnah kutdoe, talongkung rhoek, boelrhaikung rhoek, namtom ol neh rhep a khueh.
29 [Are] all apostles? [are] all prophets? [are] all teachers? [are] all [in possession of] miraculous powers?
Hlang boeih he caeltueih moenih. Hlang boeih he tonghma moenih. Hlang boeih he saya moenih. Hlang boeih he thaomnah moenih.
30 have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
Hlang boeih loh hoeihnah kutdoe a khueh uh moenih. Hlang boeih loh olka a thui moenih. Hlang boeih loh a thuicaih moenih.
31 But desire earnestly the greater gifts, and yet shew I unto you a way of more surpassing excellence.
Tedae kutdoe tanglue te yakvawt uh lah. Te dongah longpuei he a puehkan la nangmih kan tueng pueng.
