1 Corinthians 12
1 Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.
Ugbu a ụmụnna m, achọrọ m ka unu mata ihe gbasara onyinye nke Mmụọ Nsọ na-enye.
2 You know that when you were heathen, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
Unu matara na mgbe unu bụ ndị na-amaghị Chineke, e duru unu nʼotu ụzọ maọbụ nke ọzọ, duhie unu ụzọ iso arụsị ndị ahụ dara ogbi.
3 Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Yeshua is accursed.” No one can say, “Yeshua is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.
Ya mere, achọrọ m ka unu ghọta nke ọma na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla na-ekwu okwu site nʼodudu Mmụọ nke Chineke, pụrụ ị sị, “Ka Jisọs bụrụ onye a bụrụ ọnụ.” Ọ dịkwaghị onye ọbụla pụrụ ikwu, na “Jisọs bụ Onyenwe anyị,” ma ọ bụghị site na Mmụọ Nsọ.
4 Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Onyinye amara dị iche iche dị, ma otu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ na-enye ha niile.
5 There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
E nwekwara ụdị ije ozi dị iche iche, maọbụ otu Onyenwe anyị ahụ ka a na-ejere ozi.
6 There are various kinds of workings, but the same God who works all things in all.
Ụdị ike dị iche iche nke eji arụ ọrụ dịkwa, ma otu Chineke ahụ na-etinye ike ndị a nʼime onye ọbụla iji jee ozi.
7 But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
Ọ na-enyekwa onye ọbụla amara izipụta ike nke Mmụọ Nsọ maka ọdịmma mmadụ niile.
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,
Mmụọ Nsọ na-enye otu onye onyinye ikwu okwu amamihe, na-enyekwa onye ọzọ onyinye ịma ihe ọmụma, site nʼotu Mmụọ ahụ.
9 to another faith by the same Spirit, and to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,
Otu Mmụọ nsọ a na-enye onye ọzọ onyinye inwe okwukwe, na-enyekwa onye ọzọ onyinye inwe ike ịgwọ ọrịa.
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.
Onye ọzọ ka ọ na-enye onyinye ịrụ ọrụ ịtụnanya, onye ọzọ ike ibu amụma. Onye ọzọ ka ọ na-enye ike ịkọwa ụdị mmụọ dị iche iche, ma onye ọzọkwa ka ọ na-enye ike ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche. Ma ọ na-enyekwa onye ọzọ ike ịkọwa ihe onye na-asụ asụsụ ndị a na-ekwu.
11 But the one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
Ọ bụ otu Mmụọ ahụ na-enye onyinye ndị a niile. Ọ na-enye onye ọbụla onyinye dị iche iche dịka Mmụọ Nsọ si kpebie.
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 Messiah.
Dịka ahụ anyị si nwe akụkụ dị iche iche, ma bụrụkwa otu ahụ, nʼagbanyeghị na o nwere ọtụtụ akụkụ, otu a ka anụ ahụ Kraịst dịkwa.
13 For in one Spirit we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.
Site nʼotu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ ka e mere anyị niile baptizim nʼotu nʼotu, ma ndị Juu ma ndị Griik, ma ohu ma ndị nwe onwe ha. E meela ka anyị ṅụọ ọbara ya, nʼime njikọ nke otu Mmụọ Nsọ ahụ.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Ahụ mmadụ abụghị naanị otu akụkụ, kama o nwere ọtụtụ akụkụ ahụ.
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.
Ọ bụrụ na ụkwụ asị, “Nʼihi na-abụghị m aka, esoghị nʼahụ,” nke a agaghị egbochi ya ka ọ gharakwa ịbụ otu nʼakụkụ anụ ahụ.
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.
Otu a kwa, ọ bụrụ na ntị asị, “Ebe m na-abụghị anya abụghị m otu akụkụ anụ ahụ.” Okwu a kwa agaghị eme ka ntị ghara ịbụ akụkụ anụ ahụ.
17 If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?
Ọ bụrụ na ahụ niile bụ anya, olee ka ahụ ga-esi nụ ihe? Ọ bụrụkwa na ahụ mmadụ bụ naanị ntị ọ ga-esi aṅaa nụ isisi ihe ọbụla?
18 But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.
Ma otu ihe si dị, Chineke debere nʼotu nʼotu akụkụ niile dị nʼahụ dịka o si chọọ.
19 If they were all one member, where would the body be?
A sị na akụkụ niile dị nʼahụ bụ otu ihe, kedụ ebe ahụ ga-adị?
20 But now they are many members, but one body.
Otu ọ dị, ọ bụ ezie na ihe dị nʼahụ dị ọtụtụ, ma ha niile bụ otu ahụ.
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.”
Nʼihi nke a, anya enweghị ike ịgwa aka sị, “Achọghị m gị, nʼihi na ị dịghị m mkpa.” Isi agakwaghị agwa ụkwụ sị, “Achọghị m inyeaka gị.”
22 No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.
Kama ọ bụ akụkụ ahụ anyị ndị na-esighị ike bụ ndị dị anyị mkpa karịa.
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,
E e, akụkụ ndị ahụ anyị na-eche na ha adịghị mkpa ka anyị na-eji nsọpụrụ na-elekọta. Akụkụ ndị ahụ na-ekwesighị ile anya ka anyị na-enye ugwu, ma na-ekpuchi ha.
24 while our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,
Ma anyị adịghị esi otu a elekọta akụkụ ahụ ndị ahụ anya na-ahụ nʼụzọ pụrụ iche, nʼihi na Chineke kpachapụrụ anya mee ka akụkụ ndị ahụ dịkarịsịrị nta bụrụ nke anyị kwesiri inye nsọpụrụ karịa.
25 that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, nkewa ọbụla adịghị nʼahụ mmadụ. Akụkụ ọbụla maara mkpa ibe ya, ha na-egborịtakwara onwe ha mkpa ha.
26 When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. When one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.
Ọ bụrụ na otu akụkụ enwe nsogbu, akụkụ ndị ọzọ ga-eketa oke na nsogbu ahụ. Ọ bụrụkwa na otu akụkụ emee ihe ga-eweta otuto ọ bụ ahụ niile na-enwe otuto ahụ.
27 Now you are the body of Messiah, and members individually.
Ugbu a, unu niile nʼotu nʼotu bụ otu anụ ahụ Kraịst. Unu bụkwa akụkụ ahụ ya nʼotu nʼotu, bụrụkwa ndị dị mkpa nʼahụ ahụ.
28 God has set some in the assembly: first emissaries, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.
Nke a bụ ụfọdụ nʼime akụkụ dị iche iche Chineke tinyere na chọọchị; nke mbụ bụ ndị ozi, ndị amụma, ndị nkuzi, ndị na-arụ ọrụ ịtụnanya, ndị na-agwọ ọrịa, ndị pụrụ inyere mmadụ ibe ha aka, ndị nwere onyinye ịchịkọta ihe niile nʼusoro, na ndị na-asụ asụsụ dị iche iche.
29 Are all emissaries? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?
Ha niile, ha bụ ndị ozi? Ha niile ha bụ ndị amụma? Ha niile ha bụ ndị nkuzi? Ha niile ha bụ ndị ọrụ ebube?
30 Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?
Ha niile ha nwere onyinye ịgwọ ọrịa? Ha niile ha na-asụ nʼolu dị iche iche? Ha niile ha nwere onyinye nke ịkọwa asụsụ dị iche iche?
31 But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
Ugbu a, gbalịsienụ ike inweta onyinye kachasị dị elu karịa. Ma aga m ezi unu ụzọ nke kachasị ihe a niile mma.
