1 Corinthians, 12

1. About the gifts of the Spirit, brothers, I want you to be quite certain.

1. Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be uninformed.

2. You remember that, when you were pagans, you were irresistibly drawn to inarticulate heathen gods.

2. You know that when you were heathen, you were led astray to dumb idols, however you may have been moved.

3. Because of that, I want to make it quite clear to you that no one who says 'A curse on Jesus' can be speaking in the Spirit of God, and nobody is able to say, 'Jesus is Lord' except in the Holy Spirit.

3. Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus be cursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except by the Holy Spirit.

4. There are many different gifts, but it is always the same Spirit;

4. Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit;

5. there are many different ways of serving, but it is always the same Lord.

5. and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord;

6. There are many different forms of activity, but in everybody it is the same God who is at work in them all.

6. and there are varieties of working, but it is the same God who inspires them all in every one.

7. The particular manifestation of the Spirit granted to each one is to be used for the general good.

7. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

8. To one is given from the Spirit the gift of utterance expressing wisdom; to another the gift of utterance expressing knowledge, in accordance with the same Spirit;

8. To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit,

9. to another, faith, from the same Spirit; and to another, the gifts of healing, through this one Spirit;

9. to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit,

10. to another, the working of miracles; to another, prophecy; to another, the power of distinguishing spirits; to one, the gift of different tongues and to another, the interpretation of tongues.

10. to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

11. But at work in all these is one and the same Spirit, distributing them at will to each individual.

11. All these are inspired by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.

12. For as with the human body which is a unity although it has many parts -- all the parts of the body, though many, still making up one single body -- so it is with Christ.

12. For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.

13. We were baptised into one body in a single Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink.

13. For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body -- Jews or Greeks, slaves or free -- and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

14. And indeed the body consists not of one member but of many.

14. For the body does not consist of one member but of many.

15. If the foot were to say, 'I am not a hand and so I do not belong to the body,' it does not belong to the body any the less for that.

15. If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body.

16. Or if the ear were to say, 'I am not an eye, and so I do not belong to the body,' that would not stop its belonging to the body.

16. And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body.

17. If the whole body were just an eye, how would there be any hearing? If the whole body were hearing, how would there be any smelling?

17. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell?

18. As it is, God has put all the separate parts into the body as he chose.

18. But as it is, God arranged the organs in the body, each one of them, as he chose.

19. If they were all the same part, how could it be a body?

19. If all were a single organ, where would the body be?

20. As it is, the parts are many but the body is one.

20. As it is, there are many parts, yet one body.

21. The eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you,' and nor can the head say to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'

21. The eye cannot say to the hand, "I have no need of you," nor again the head to the feet, "I have no need of you."

22. What is more, it is precisely the parts of the body that seem to be the weakest which are the indispensable ones.

22. On the contrary, the parts of the body which seem to be weaker are indispensable,

23. It is the parts of the body which we consider least dignified that we surround with the greatest dignity; and our less presentable parts are given greater presentability

23. and those parts of the body which we think less honorable we invest with the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,

24. which our presentable parts do not need. God has composed the body so that greater dignity is given to the parts which were without it,

24. which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the inferior part,

25. and so that there may not be disagreements inside the body but each part may be equally concerned for all the others.

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

26. If one part is hurt, all the parts share its pain. And if one part is honoured, all the parts share its joy.

26. If one member suffers, all suffer together; if one member is honored, all rejoice together.

27. Now Christ's body is yourselves, each of you with a part to play in the whole.

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

28. And those whom God has appointed in the Church are, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers; after them, miraculous powers, then gifts of healing, helpful acts, guidance, various kinds of tongues.

28. And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues.

29. Are all of them apostles? Or all prophets? Or all teachers? Or all miracle-workers?

29. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?

30. Do all have the gifts of healing? Do all of them speak in tongues and all interpret them?

30. Do all possess gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

31. Set your mind on the higher gifts. And now I am going to put before you the best way of all.

31. But earnestly desire the higher gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.

Fusnote:

12:4-11 - Pavao opisuje duhovne darove, naglašavajući i različitost i jedinstvo u tijelu Kristovu. Svaki vjernik prima posebne darove za izgradnju crkve, pod vodstvom Duha Svetoga (vidi također Rimljanima 12:6-8 i Efežanima 4:11-12).

12:12-14 - Metafora tijela ilustrira važnost svakog člana u crkvi, bez obzira na njihovu ulogu. Raznolikost je neophodna za skladno funkcioniranje Kristova tijela (vidi također Efežanima 4,4-6 i Rimljanima 12,5).

12:27-31 - Pavao uči da je crkva tijelo Kristovo, gdje svaki član ima važnu ulogu. On potiče vjernike da traže duhovne darove koji izgrađuju crkvu, osobito dar ljubavi (vidi također Rimljanima 12:4-5 i 1. Korinćanima 13:1-3).

12:7 - Dar Duha daje se za opće dobro, a ne za osobno pokazivanje. Duhovne darove treba koristiti za izgradnju drugih, odražavajući Kristov karakter (vidi također 1. Petrova 4:10 i Efežanima 4:16).

Stihovi vezani uz 1 Corinthians, 12:

1. Korinćanima, 12. poglavlje istražuje duhovne darove i jedinstvo tijela Kristova. Kako različiti darovi doprinose općem dobru? Pavao poučava o raznolikosti i svrsi duhovnih darova, naglašavajući da svi dolaze od istoga Duha. On koristi metaforu tijela kako bi ilustrirao međuovisnost članova crkve. Tekst promiče cijenjenje svih darova. Istražite s nama pet biblijskih odlomaka koji se odnose na temeljne pojmove ovog prosvjetljujućeg poglavlja.

Rimljanima 12,4-5: "Kao što svatko od nas ima tijelo s mnogo udova, a ti udovi ne obavljaju svi istu funkciju, tako u Kristu mi, kojih nas je mnogo, činimo jedno tijelo, a svaki je ud povezan sa svim ostalima." - Ovaj stih odjekuje temom Kristova tijela u 1. Korinćanima 12, naglašavajući jedinstvo u različitosti.

Efežanima 4,11-12: "I postavio je jedne za apostole, druge za proroke, druge za evanđeliste, a neke za pastire i učitelje, da priprave svete za djelo službe, da se tijelo Kristovo sagradi," - Baš kao i 1. Korinćanima 12, ovaj stih govori o različitim darovima i službama u crkvi.

Ivan 14:26: "Ali Utješitelj, Duh Sveti, kojega će Otac poslati u moje ime, poučit će vas o svemu i podsjetit će vas na sve što sam vam rekao." - Ovaj se stih odnosi na raspravu o duhovnim darovima u 1. Korinćanima 12, naglašavajući ulogu Duha Svetoga.

1. Petrova 4:10: "Svaka osoba mora primijeniti dar koji je primila da služi drugima, vjerno služeći Božjom milošću u njezinim višestrukim oblicima." - Kao iu 1. Korinćanima 12, Petar naglašava korištenje duhovnih darova za uzajamno služenje.

Galaćanima 3:28: "Nema ni Židova ni Grka, roba ni slobodnog, muškog ni ženskog; jer svi su jedno u Kristu Isusu." - Ovaj stih odražava temu jedinstva u Kristu o kojoj se govori u 1. Korinćanima 12.

Kako Pavao uspoređuje crkvu s ljudskim tijelom u 1. Korinćanima 12?

Pavao uspoređuje crkvu s ljudskim tijelom, pokazujući da kao što tijelo ima mnogo dijelova, crkva ima mnogo članova, od kojih svaki ima važnu funkciju. (1. Korinćanima 12,12-14)

Što Pavao kaže o važnosti svakog duhovnog dara?

Pavao naglašava da su svi duhovni darovi važni za pravilno funkcioniranje crkve i da nijedan dar nije bolji od drugoga. Svaki član doprinosi općem dobru. (1. Korinćanima 12,21-26)

Što znači "ljubav je bolji put" u 1. Korinćanima 12?

Pavao uči da iako su duhovni darovi važni, ljubav je najizvrsniji dar, jer bez ljubavi darovi gube svoju vrijednost. Ljubav je temelj svih kršćanskih odnosa. (1. Korinćanima 12,31)
