¹Huan, unaute aw, khalam thilpiak thute jaw na theih louh uh ka ut kei hi.

¹Now concerning spiritual things, brothers, I don’t want you to be ignorant.

²Jentelte na hih lai un bangchidan peuha honpi lai un leng, huai milim pautheiloute lamah pi mangin na om uh chih na thei uhi.

²You know that when you were heathen or Gentiles , you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.

³Huaijiakin, kuamahin, Pathian Khaa thugenin, Jesu jaw hamsiatin om hen, a chi ngei kei uh; huan, kuamahin, Kha Siangthou kia loungalin, Jesu jaw Toupa ahi, a chi ngei kei uh chih kon theisak ahi.

³Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God’s Spirit says, “Jesus is accursed.” No one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” but by the Holy Spirit.

⁴Huan, thilpiak tuamtuam a oma, Kha bel kikhat ahi.

⁴Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.

⁵Nasepna tuamtuam leng a om, himahleh Toupa bel khat ahi.

⁵There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.

⁶Nasepsakna tuamtuam leng a om, ahihhangin Pathian bel khat ahi – mi tengtenga bangkim sempa tuh.

⁶There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.

⁷Himahleh phattuam chiatna dingin Kha theihsakna michih kianga piak chiat ahi.

⁷But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.

⁸Mi khat kiangah, khain pilna thu a pia hi; midang kiangah, huai kha mahin theihna thu a pia hi;

⁸For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

⁹Huan, midang kianga, huai kha mah-in, ginna a pia hi; midang kiangah hihdam theihna a pia hi;

⁹to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit;

¹⁰Midang kiangah thillamdang hihtheihna, midang kiangah tugen theihna, midang kiangah khate theihkak theihna, midang kiangah pau chi tuamtuamte, midang kiangah paute hilhchetna.

¹⁰and 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.

¹¹Himahleh, hiaite tengteng Kha khat leh akikhat mahin, mi chih kiangah a deih bang jela hawm chiatin a sem jel hi.

¹¹But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.

¹²Pumpi i chih khat ahia, hiang a neia, pumpi hiangte tengteng, tam mahle uh, pumpi khat ahi ngala; Kris tuh huchibangmah ahi hi.

¹²For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

¹³I vek un pumpi khata om dingin Kha khata baptisin i omta ua – Judate hiam, Griskte hiam, sikhate hiam sikhalou hiam- huan i vek un Kha khat akipan dawnsakin i omta ngal ua.

¹³For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.

¹⁴Pumpi i chih hiang khat kia ahi ngal keia, hiang tampi ahi jaw.

¹⁴For the body is not one member, but many.

¹⁵Khepekin, khut ka hih louh jiakin pumpia pang ka hi kei, chileh, huai thu jiakin pumpia panglou ahi tuan kei.

¹⁵If 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.

¹⁶Huan, bilin, mit ka hih louh jiakin pumpia pang ka hi kei, chileh, huai thu jiakin pumpia panglou ahi tuan kei.

¹⁶If 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.

¹⁷Pumpi tengteng mit hi vek leh, ging jakna pen koiah a om dia? A vekin ging jakna hileh, gim jakna pen koiah a om dia?

¹⁷If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?

¹⁸Himahleh Pathianin hiang khempeuh pumpi ah a utna peuh ah a omsak chiatta hi.

¹⁸But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.

¹⁹Huchiin, huai tengteng hiang khat kia hileh, pumpi pen koi ah a om dia?

¹⁹If they were all one member, where would the body be?

²⁰Ahihhangin hiang tampi ahi jaw uh, himahleh, pumpi khat kia ahi ngal ua.

²⁰But now they are many members, but one body.

²¹Huan, mitin, khut kiangah, Bangmahin kon deih kei, a chi theikei; luin leng khepekte kiangah, Bangmahin kon deih kei, a chi thei sam kei hi.

²¹The 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.”

²²Ahi, huchih naksangin, pumpi hiang hat dia kilawm loupente a kiphamoh zo mahmah uhi;

²²No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

²³Huchiin, pumpi hiang pahtawi tham louh jawa i sehte, huaite ngei tuh i pahtawi jaw uhi; huan, i hiang kilawm louten kilawmna thupijaw a mu jel uhi;

²³Those 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 propriety;

²⁴I hiang kilawm ten bel huchibang a hih a kiphamoh kei uhi. Pathianin, kilawmna neilou hiang tuh pahtawi zopenin, pumpi tuh a lemkhawm zo ngala,

²⁴whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God composed the body together, giving more abundant honor to the inferior part,

²⁵Huchia pumpia kikhenna himhim omloua, ahiangten kibang taka a kibuaipih tuah theih jawkna ding un.

²⁵that there should be no division in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

²⁶Huchiin, hiang khatin a thuak leh, hiang tengtengin a thuak pih jela, hiang khat pahtawia a om leh, hiang tengtengin a kipahpih jel hi.

²⁶When one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. Or when one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it.

²⁷Huchiin noute Kris pumpi pen na hi ua, ahiangte na hi chiat lai uhi.

²⁷Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

²⁸Huan, Pathianin khenkhat saptuam lakah a honkoiha – a khatna ah sawltakte, a nihna ah thugenmite, a thumna ah heutute a koiha; huai nungin thillamdang hihte a oma; huai nungin hihdam theihna thilpiakte, panpih theihna thilpiakte, vaihawm siamna thilpiakte, pautheihlouh chi tuamtuama thugen theihna thilpiakte a om nawn hi.

²⁸God has set some in the assembly: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracle workers, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, and various kinds of languages.

²⁹A vek un sawltak ahi vek uhia? A vek un thugenmi ahi vek uhia? A vek un heutu ahi vek uhia?

²⁹Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all miracle workers?

³⁰A vek un thillamdang hihmi ahi vek uhia? A vek un hihdim theihna thilpiakte a nei vek uhia? A vek un pautheihlouhtein thu a gen vek uhia?A vek un thuhilhchianmi ahi vek u hia? Thilpiak thupipen te lunggulh mahmah jaw un. Huan, lampi hoih sem ka honensak ding hi.

³⁰Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with various languages? Do all interpret?

³¹A vek un thuhilhchianmi ahi vek u hia? Thilpiak thupipen te lunggulh mahmah jaw un. Huan, lampi hoih sem ka honensak ding hi.

³¹But earnestly desire the best gifts. Moreover, I show a most excellent way to you.
