1 Corinthians 12:3-13

3ThereforeG1352 I makeG1107 knownG1107 to you that noG3762 oneG3762 speakingG2980 12by the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316 saysG3004, “JesusG2424 is 34accursedG331”; and noG3762 oneG3762 canG1410 sayG3004, “JesusG2424 is 5LordG2962,” exceptG1508 67by the HolyG40 SpiritG4151.

4NowG1161 there are 8varietiesG1243 of giftsG5486, but the sameG846 SpiritG4151. 5And there are varietiesG1243 of ministriesG1248, and the sameG846 LordG2962. 6There are varietiesG1243 of effectsG1755, but the sameG846 9GodG2316 who worksG1754 allG3956 thingsG3956 in allG3956 persons. 7But to eachG1538 oneG1538 is givenG1325 the manifestationG5321 of the SpiritG4151 10for the commonG4851 goodG4851. 8For to oneG3739G3303 is givenG1325 the wordG3056 of 11wisdomG4678 throughG1223 the SpiritG4151, and to anotherG243 the wordG3056 of 12knowledgeG1108 accordingG2596 to the sameG846 SpiritG4151; 9to anotherG2087 13faithG4102 14by the sameG846 SpiritG4151, and to anotherG243 15giftsG5486 of 16healingG2386 17by the oneG1520 SpiritG4151, 10and to anotherG243 the 18effectingG1755 of 1920miraclesG1411, and to anotherG243 21prophecyG4394, and to anotherG243 the 2223distinguishingG1253 of spiritsG4151, to anotherG2087 various 24kindsG1085 of tonguesG1100, and to anotherG243 the 25interpretationG2058 of tonguesG1100. 11But oneG1520 and the sameG846 SpiritG4151 worksG1754 allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778, 26distributingG1244 to eachG1538 oneG1538 individuallyG2398 justG2531 as He willsG1014.

12For evenG2509 27as the bodyG4983 is oneG1520 and yet hasG2192 manyG4183 membersG3196, and allG3956 the membersG3196 of the bodyG4983, though they are manyG4183, are oneG1520 bodyG4983, 28soG3779 alsoG2532 is ChristG5547. 13For 2930by oneG1520 SpiritG4151 we were allG3956 baptizedG907 into oneG1520 bodyG4983, whetherG1535 31JewsG2453 orG1535 GreeksG1672, whetherG1535 slavesG1401 orG1535 freeG1658, and we were allG3956 madeG4222 to 32drinkG4222 of oneG1520 SpiritG4151.
