Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1Now concerning spiritual things, my brethren, I would not have you ignorant.
1De spiritualibus autem, nolo vos ignorare fratres.
2You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.
2Scitis quoniam cum gentes essetis, ad simulacra muta prout ducebamini euntes.
3Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man, speaking by the Spirit of God, saith Anathema to Jesus. And no man can say the Lord Jesus, but by the Holy Ghost.
3Ideo notum vobis facio, quod nemo in Spiritu Dei loquens, dicit anathema Jesu. Et nemo potest dicere, Dominus Jesus, nisi in Spiritu Sancto.
4Now there are diversities of graces, but the same Spirit;
4Divisiones vero gratiarum sunt, idem autem Spiritus:
5And there are diversities of ministries, but the same Lord;
5et divisiones ministrationum sunt, idem autem Dominus:
6And there are diversities of operations, but the same God, who worketh all in all.
6et divisiones operationum sunt, idem vero Deus qui operatur omnia in omnibus.
7And the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man unto profit.
7Unicuique autem datur manifestatio Spiritus ad utilitatem.
8To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
8Alii quidem per Spiritum datur sermo sapientiæ: alii autem sermo scientiæ secundum eumdem Spiritum:
9To another, faith in the same spirit; to another, the grace of healing in one Spirit;
9alteri fides in eodem Spiritu: alii gratia sanitatum in uno Spiritu:
10To another, the working of miracles; to another, prophecy; to another, the discerning of spirits; to another, diverse kinds of tongues; to another, interpretation of speeches.
10alii operatio virtutum, alii prophetia, alii discretio spirituum, alii genera linguarum, alii interpretatio sermonum.
11But all these things one and the same Spirit worketh, dividing to every one according as he will.
11Hæc autem omnia operantur unus atque idem Spiritus, dividens singulis prout vult.
12For as the body is one, and hath many members; and all the members of the body, whereas they are many, yet are one body, so also is 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 were we all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether bond or free; and in one Spirit we have all been made 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 also is not one member, but many.
14Nam et corpus non est unum membrum, sed multa.
15If the foot should say, because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not 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 the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not 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 the eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?
17Si totum corpus oculus: ubi auditus? Si totum auditus: ubi odoratus?
18But now God hath set the members every one of them in the body as it hath pleased him.
18Nunc autem posuit Deus membra, unumquodque eorum in corpore sicut voluit.
19And if they all were one member, where would be the body?
19Quod si essent omnia unum membrum, ubi corpus?
20But now there are many members indeed, yet one body.
20Nunc autem multa quidem membra, unum autem corpus.
21And the eye cannot say to the hand: I need not thy help; nor again the head to the feet: I have no need of you.
21Non potest autem oculus dicere manui: Opera tua non indigeo: aut iterum caput pedibus: Non estis mihi necessarii.
22Yea, much more those that seem to be the more feeble members of the body, are more necessary.
22Sed multo magis quæ videntur membra corporis infirmiora esse, necessariora sunt:
23And such as we think to be the less honourable members of the body, about these we put more abundant honour; and those that are our uncomely parts, have more abundant comeliness.
23et quæ putamus ignobiliora membra esse corporis, his honorem abundantiorem circumdamus: et quæ inhonesta sunt nostra, abundantiorem honestatem habent.
24But our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, giving to that which wanted the more abundant honour,
24Honesta autem nostra nullius egent: sed Deus temperavit corpus, ei cui deerat, abundantiorem tribuendo honorem,
25That there might be no schism in the body; but the members might be mutually careful one for another.
25ut non sit schisma in corpore, sed idipsum pro invicem sollicita sint membra.
26And if one member suffer any thing, all the members suffer with it; or if one member glory, all the members rejoice 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 members of member.
27Vos autem estis corpus Christi, et membra de membro.
28And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors; after that miracles; then the graces of healing, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.
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 doctors?
29Numquid omnes apostoli? numquid omnes prophetæ? numquid omnes doctores?
30Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?
30numquid omnes virtutes? numquid omnes gratiam habent curationum? numquid omnes linguis loquuntur? numquid omnes interpretantur?
31But be zealous for the better gifts. And I shew unto you yet a more excellent way.
31Æmulamini autem charismata meliora. Et adhuc excellentiorem viam vobis demonstro.
