GenevaNow concerning spirituall giftes, brethren, I would not haue you ignorant.

Περὶ δὲ τῶν πνευματικῶν, ἀδελφοί, οὐ θέλω ὑμᾶς ἀγνοεῖν.

Yee know that yee were Gentiles, caryed away vnto these dumbe idoles, euen as ye were led.

GenevaYe know that ye were Gentiles, and were caried away vnto the dumme Idoles, as ye were led.

οἴδατε ὅτι ὅτε ἔθνη ἦτε πρὸς τὰ εἴδωλα τὰ ἄφωνα ὡς ἂν ἤγεσθε ἀπαγόμενοι.

Wherefore I giue you to vnderstand, that no man speaking by the spirit of God, calleth Iesus accursed: and that no man can say that Iesus is the Lord, but by the holy Ghost.

GenevaWherefore, I declare vnto you, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Iesus execrable: also no man can say that Iesus is the Lord, but by the holy Ghost.

διὸ γνωρίζω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐδεὶς ἐν πνεύματι θεοῦ λαλῶν λέγει· Ἀνάθεμα Ἰησοῦς, καὶ οὐδεὶς δύναται εἰπεῖν· Κύριος Ἰησοῦς εἰ μὴ ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ.

Nowe there are diuersities of gifts, but the same spirit.

Διαιρέσεις δὲ χαρισμάτων εἰσίν, τὸ δὲ αὐτὸ πνεῦμα·

And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

GenevaAnd there are diuersities of administrations, but the same Lord,

καὶ διαιρέσεις διακονιῶν εἰσιν, καὶ ὁ αὐτὸς κύριος·

And there are diuersities of operations, but it is the same God, which worketh all in all.

GenevaAnd there are diuersities of operations, but God is the same which worketh all in all.

καὶ διαιρέσεις ἐνεργημάτων εἰσίν, ὁ δὲ αὐτὸς θεός, ὁ ἐνεργῶν τὰ πάντα ἐν πᾶσιν.

But the manifestation of the spirit, is giuen to euery man to profit withall.

GenevaBut the manifestation of the Spirit is giuen to euery man, to profite withall.

ἑκάστῳ δὲ δίδοται ἡ φανέρωσις τοῦ πνεύματος πρὸς τὸ συμφέρον.

For to one is giuen by the spirit, the word of wisedome, to another the word of knowledge, by the same spirit.

GenevaFor to one is giuen by the Spirit the word of wisdome: and to an other the word of knowledge, by the same Spirit:

ᾧ μὲν γὰρ διὰ τοῦ πνεύματος δίδοται λόγος σοφίας, ἄλλῳ δὲ λόγος γνώσεως κατὰ τὸ αὐτὸ πνεῦμα,

To another faith, by the same spirit: to another the gifts of healing, by the same spirit:

GenevaAnd to another is giuen faith by the same Spirit: and to another the giftes of healing, by the same Spirit:

ἑτέρῳ πίστις ἐν τῷ αὐτῷ πνεύματι, ἄλλῳ χαρίσματα ἰαμάτων ἐν τῷ ἑνὶ πνεύματι,

To another the working of miracles, to another prophecie, to another discerning of spirits, to another diuers kindes of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

GenevaAnd to another the operations of great workes: and to another, prophecie: and to another, the discerning of spirits: and to another, diuersities of tongues: and to another, the interpretation of tongues.

ἄλλῳ ἐνεργήματα δυνάμεων, ἄλλῳ προφητεία, 1ἄλλῳ διακρίσεις πνευμάτων, ἑτέρῳ γένη γλωσσῶν, 2ἄλλῳ ἑρμηνεία γλωσσῶν·

But all these worketh that one and the selfe same spirit, diuiding to euery man seuerally as he will.

GenevaAnd all these thinges worketh one and the selfe same Spirit, distributing to euery man seuerally as he will.

πάντα δὲ ταῦτα ἐνεργεῖ τὸ ἓν καὶ τὸ αὐτὸ πνεῦμα, διαιροῦν ἰδίᾳ ἑκάστῳ καθὼς βούλεται.

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the membrs of that one body, being many, are one bodie: so also is Christ.

GenevaFor as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of the body, which is one, though they be many, yet are but one body: euen so is Christ.

Καθάπερ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα ἕν ἐστιν καὶ μέλη πολλὰ ἔχει, πάντα δὲ τὰ μέλη τοῦ σώματος πολλὰ ὄντα ἕν ἐστιν σῶμα, οὕτως καὶ ὁ Χριστός·

For by one spirit are we all baptized into one bodie, whether wee bee Iewes or Gentiles, whether wee bee bond or free: and haue beene all made to drinke into one spirit.

GenevaFor by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we bee Iewes, or Grecians, whether we be bonde, or free, and haue bene all made to drinke into one Spirit.

καὶ γὰρ ἐν ἑνὶ πνεύματι ἡμεῖς πάντες εἰς ἓν σῶμα ἐβαπτίσθημεν, εἴτε Ἰουδαῖοι εἴτε Ἕλληνες, εἴτε δοῦλοι εἴτε ἐλεύθεροι, καὶ πάντες ἓν πνεῦμα ἐποτίσθημεν.

For the body is not one member, but many.

GenevaFor the body also is not one member, but many.

Καὶ γὰρ τὸ σῶμα οὐκ ἔστιν ἓν μέλος ἀλλὰ πολλά.

If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body: is it therefore not of the body?

GenevaIf the foote would say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body?

ἐὰν εἴπῃ ὁ πούς· Ὅτι οὐκ εἰμὶ χείρ, οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐκ τοῦ σώματος, οὐ παρὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ σώματος;

And if the eare shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body: is it therefore not of the body?

GenevaAnd if the eare would say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body, is it therefore not of the body?

καὶ ἐὰν εἴπῃ τὸ οὖς· Ὅτι οὐκ εἰμὶ ὀφθαλμός, οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐκ τοῦ σώματος, οὐ παρὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἔστιν ἐκ τοῦ σώματος·

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

GenevaIf the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smellling?

εἰ ὅλον τὸ σῶμα ὀφθαλμός, ποῦ ἡ ἀκοή; εἰ ὅλον ἀκοή, ποῦ ἡ ὄσφρησις;

But now hath God set the members, euery one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

GenevaBut nowe hath God disposed the members euery one of them in the bodie at his owne pleasure.

νυνὶ δὲ ὁ θεὸς ἔθετο τὰ μέλη, ἓν ἕκαστον αὐτῶν, ἐν τῷ σώματι καθὼς ἠθέλησεν.

And if they were all one member, where were the body?

GenevaFor if they were all one member, where were the body?

εἰ δὲ ἦν τὰ πάντα ἓν μέλος, ποῦ τὸ σῶμα;

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

GenevaBut now are there many members, yet but one body.

νῦν δὲ πολλὰ μὲν μέλη, ἓν δὲ σῶμα.

And the eye cannot say vnto the hand, I haue no need of thee: nor againe, the head to the feete, I haue no neede of you.

GenevaAnd the eye cannot say vnto the hand, I haue no neede of thee: nor the head againe to the feete, I haue no neede of you.

οὐ δύναται δὲ ὁ ὀφθαλμὸς εἰπεῖν τῇ χειρί· Χρείαν σου οὐκ ἔχω, ἢ πάλιν ἡ κεφαλὴ τοῖς ποσίν· Χρείαν ὑμῶν οὐκ ἔχω·

Nay, much more those members of the bodie, which seeme to bee more feeble, are necessary.

GenevaYea, much rather those members of the body, which seeme to be more feeble, are necessarie.

ἀλλὰ πολλῷ μᾶλλον τὰ δοκοῦντα μέλη τοῦ σώματος ἀσθενέστερα ὑπάρχειν ἀναγκαῖά ἐστιν,

And those members of the bodie, which wee thinke to bee lesse honourable, vpon these we bestow more abundant honour, and our vncomely parts haue more abundant comelinesse.

GenevaAnd vpon those members of the body, which wee thinke most vnhonest, put wee more honestie on: and our vncomely parts haue more comelinesse on.

καὶ ἃ δοκοῦμεν ἀτιμότερα εἶναι τοῦ σώματος, τούτοις τιμὴν περισσοτέραν περιτίθεμεν, καὶ τὰ ἀσχήμονα ἡμῶν εὐσχημοσύνην περισσοτέραν ἔχει,

For our comely parts haue no need: but God hath tempered the bodie together, hauing giuen more abundant honour to that part which lacked:

GenevaFor our comely partes neede it not: but God hath tempered the body together, and hath giuen the more honour to that part which lacked,

τὰ δὲ εὐσχήμονα ἡμῶν οὐ χρείαν ἔχει. ἀλλὰ ὁ θεὸς συνεκέρασεν τὸ σῶμα, τῷ ὑστεροῦντι περισσοτέραν δοὺς τιμήν,

That there should be no schisme in the body: but that the members should haue the same care one for another.

GenevaLest there should be any diuision in the body: but that the members shoulde haue the same care one for another.

ἵνα μὴ ᾖ σχίσμα ἐν τῷ σώματι, ἀλλὰ τὸ αὐτὸ ὑπὲρ ἀλλήλων μεριμνῶσι τὰ μέλη.

And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it: or one member be honoured, all the members reioyce with it.

GenevaTherefore if one member suffer, all suffer with it: if one member be had in honour, all the members reioyce with it.

καὶ εἴτε πάσχει ἓν μέλος, συμπάσχει πάντα τὰ μέλη· εἴτε δοξάζεται μέλος, συγχαίρει πάντα τὰ μέλη.

Now yee are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

GenevaNow ye are the body of Christ, and members for your part.

Ὑμεῖς δέ ἐστε σῶμα Χριστοῦ καὶ μέλη ἐκ μέρους.

And God hath set some in the Church, first Apostles, secondarily Prophets, thirdly Teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helpes in gouernmēts, diuersities of tongues.

GenevaAnd God hath ordained some in the Church: as first Apostles, secondly Prophetes, thirdly teachers, then them that doe miracles: after that, the giftes of healing, helpers, gouernours, diuersitie of tongues.

καὶ οὓς μὲν ἔθετο ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῇ ἐκκλησίᾳ πρῶτον ἀποστόλους, δεύτερον προφήτας, τρίτον διδασκάλους, ἔπειτα δυνάμεις, ἔπειτα χαρίσματα ἰαμάτων, ἀντιλήμψεις, κυβερνήσεις, γένη γλωσσῶν.

Are all Apostles? are all Prophets? are all Teachers? are all workers of miracles?

GenevaAre all Apostles? are all Prophetes? are all teachers?

μὴ πάντες ἀπόστολοι; μὴ πάντες προφῆται; μὴ πάντες διδάσκαλοι; μὴ πάντες δυνάμεις;

Haue all the gifts of healing? doe all speake with tongues? doe all interpret?

GenevaAre all doers of miracles? haue all the gifts of healing? doe all speake with tongues? doe all interprete?

μὴ πάντες χαρίσματα ἔχουσιν ἰαμάτων; μὴ πάντες γλώσσαις λαλοῦσιν; μὴ πάντες διερμηνεύουσιν;

But couet earnestly the best gifts: And yet shew I vnto you a more excellent way.

GenevaBut desire you the best giftes, and I will yet shewe you a more excellent way.

ζηλοῦτε δὲ τὰ χαρίσματα τὰ μείζονα. καὶ ἔτι καθ’ ὑπερβολὴν ὁδὸν ὑμῖν δείκνυμι.
