1 Corinthians 12:10-15 Good News Bible Catholic Edition (GNBDK)

10. The Spirit gives one person the power to work miracles; to another, the gift of speaking God's message; and to yet another, the ability to tell the difference between gifts that come from the Spirit and those that do not. To one person he gives the ability to speak in strange tongues, and to another he gives the ability to explain what is said.

11. But it is one and the same Spirit who does all this; as he wishes, he gives a different gift to each person.

12. Christ is like a single body, which has many parts; it is still one body, even though it is made up of different parts.

13. In the same way, all of us, whether Jews or Gentiles, whether slaves or free, have been baptized into the one body by the same Spirit, and we have all been given the one Spirit to drink.

14. For the body itself is not made up of only one part, but of many parts.

15. If the foot were to say, “Because I am not a hand, I don't belong to the body,” that would not keep it from being a part of the body.
