Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed.
1De spiritualibus autem, nolo vos ignorare fratres.
2You know that when you were pagans, you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.
2Scitis quoniam cum gentes essetis, ad simulacra muta prout ducebamini euntes.
3Therefore I inform you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, “Jesus be cursed,” and no one can say, “Jesus is Lord,” except by the Holy Spirit.
3Ideo notum vobis facio, quod nemo in Spiritu Dei loquens, dicit anathema Jesu. Et nemo potest dicere, Dominus Jesus, nisi in Spiritu Sancto.
4There are different gifts, but the same Spirit.
4Divisiones vero gratiarum sunt, idem autem Spiritus:
5There are different ministries, but the same Lord.
5et divisiones ministrationum sunt, idem autem Dominus:
6There are different ways of working, but the same God works all things in all people.
6et divisiones operationum sunt, idem vero Deus qui operatur omnia in omnibus.
7Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
7Unicuique autem datur manifestatio Spiritus ad utilitatem.
8To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by the same Spirit,
8Alii quidem per Spiritum datur sermo sapientiæ: alii autem sermo scientiæ secundum eumdem Spiritum:
9to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
9alteri fides in eodem Spiritu: alii gratia sanitatum in uno Spiritu:
10to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in various tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.
10alii operatio virtutum, alii prophetia, alii discretio spirituum, alii genera linguarum, alii interpretatio sermonum.
11All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, who apportions them to each one as He determines.
11Hæc autem omnia operantur unus atque idem Spiritus, dividens singulis prout vult.
12The body is a unit, though it is composed of many parts. And although its parts are many, they all form one body. So it is with Christ.
12Sicut enim corpus unum est, et membra habet multa, omnia autem membra corporis cum sint multa, unum tamen corpus sunt: ita et Christus.
13For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free, and we were all given one Spirit to drink.
13Etenim in uno Spiritu omnes nos in unum corpus baptizati sumus, sive Judæi, sive gentiles, sive servi, sive liberi: et omnes in uno Spiritu potati sumus.
14For the body does not consist of one part, but of many.
14Nam et corpus non est unum membrum, sed multa.
15If 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.
15Si dixerit pes: Quoniam non sum manus, non sum de corpore: num ideo non est de corpore?
16And 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.
16Et si dixerit auris: Quoniam non sum oculus, non sum de corpore: num ideo est de corpore?
17If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?
17Si totum corpus oculus: ubi auditus? Si totum auditus: ubi odoratus?
18But in fact, God has arranged the members of the body, every one of them, according to His design.
18Nunc autem posuit Deus membra, unumquodque eorum in corpore sicut voluit.
19If they were all one part, where would the body be?
19Quod si essent omnia unum membrum, ubi corpus?
20As it is, there are many parts, but one body.
20Nunc autem multa quidem membra, unum autem corpus.
21The eye cannot say to the hand, “I do not need you.” Nor can the head say to the feet, “I do not need you.”
21Non potest autem oculus dicere manui: Opera tua non indigeo: aut iterum caput pedibus: Non estis mihi necessarii.
22On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,
22Sed multo magis quæ videntur membra corporis infirmiora esse, necessariora sunt:
23and the parts we consider less honorable, we treat with greater honor. And our unpresentable parts are treated with special modesty,
23et quæ putamus ignobiliora membra esse corporis, his honorem abundantiorem circumdamus: et quæ inhonesta sunt nostra, abundantiorem honestatem habent.
24whereas our presentable parts have no such need. But God has composed the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,
24Honesta autem nostra nullius egent: sed Deus temperavit corpus, ei cui deerat, abundantiorem tribuendo honorem,
25so that there should be no division in the body, but that its members should have mutual concern for one another.
25ut non sit schisma in corpore, sed idipsum pro invicem sollicita sint membra.
26If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
26Et si quid patitur unum membrum, compatiuntur omnia membra: sive gloriatur unum membrum, congaudent omnia membra.
27Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.
27Vos autem estis corpus Christi, et membra de membro.
28And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, and those with gifts of healing, helping, administration, and various tongues.
28Et quosdam quidem posuit Deus in ecclesia primum apostolos, secundo prophetas, exinde doctores, deinde virtutes, exinde gratias curationum, opitulationes, gubernationes, genera linguarum, interpretationes sermonum.
29Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?
29Numquid omnes apostoli? numquid omnes prophetæ? numquid omnes doctores?
30Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues? Do all interpret?
30numquid omnes virtutes? numquid omnes gratiam habent curationum? numquid omnes linguis loquuntur? numquid omnes interpretantur?
31But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way.
31Æmulamini autem charismata meliora. Et adhuc excellentiorem viam vobis demonstro.
