Through him, God has enriched your church in every way— with all of your eloquent words and all of your knowledge.

又因你们在他里面凡事富足，口才、知识都全备，

因为你们在他里面凡事富足，具有各种口才、各样知识，

因为你们在他里面凡事富足，具有各种口才、各样知识，

使你们在基督里凡事富足，有全备的口才和知识。

因为你们在他里面凡事都富足，很有口才，知识丰富，

使你们在基督里凡事都得以富足——在一切话语上、一切知识上——

又因你們在他裏面凡事富足，口才、知識都全備，

因為你們在他裏面凡事富足，具有各種口才、各樣知識，

因為你們在他裏面凡事富足，具有各種口才、各樣知識，

使你們在基督裡凡事富足，有全備的口才和知識。

因為你們在他裡面凡事都富足，很有口才，知識豐富，

因為你們在他裏面、對於一切口才、一切知識、各方面都得富足——

使你們在基督裡凡事都得以富足——在一切話語上、一切知識上——

俾爾於基督中萬事富有、才辯知識俱優、

蓋爾蒙其厚賚、大獲口才智慧、

蓋爾因彼諸事富有、大有口才智慧、

蓋天主之所以寵飾爾等者、實無微不至；賜爾等善於辭令、富於智慧、一切靈賦、應有盡有、

For in him you have been enriched in every way— with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge—

You have been blessed in every way because of him. You have been blessed in all your speech and knowledge.

that in every way you were enriched in him in all speech and all knowledge—

that you were enriched in him in every way, in all speech and all knowledge.

that in everything you were enriched in Him, in all speech and all knowledge,

that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge,

that in everything ye were enriched in him, in all utterance and all knowledge;

that by Him you were enriched in everything— in all speech and all knowledge.

That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and[ in] all knowledge;

For you were made rich in every way in him, in all your speech and in every kind of knowledge–

that in everything you were enriched in him, in all speech and all knowledge;

Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God.

Since you excel in so many ways— in your faith, your gifted speakers, your knowledge, your enthusiasm, and your love from us— I want you to excel also in this gracious act of giving.

In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; to another the same Spirit gives a message of special knowledge.

I am fully convinced, my dear brothers and sisters, that you are full of goodness. You know these things so well you can teach each other all about them.

I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding.

And pray for me, too. Ask God to give me the right words so I can boldly explain God’s mysterious plan that the Good News is for Jews and Gentiles alike.

Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen.

Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like him.

If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.

Though I am the least deserving of all God’s people, he graciously gave me the privilege of telling the Gentiles about the endless treasures available to them in Christ.

So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.

Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages and special knowledge will become useless. But love will last forever!

asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God.

If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.

Such things were written in the Scriptures long ago to teach us. And the Scriptures give us hope and encouragement as we wait patiently for God’s promises to be fulfilled.

I wish you could all speak in tongues, but even more I wish you could all prophesy. For prophecy is greater than speaking in tongues, unless someone interprets what you are saying so that the whole church will be strengthened.Dear brothers and sisters, if I should come to you speaking in an unknown language, how would that help you? But if I bring you a revelation or some special knowledge or prophecy or teaching, that will be helpful.

Well, my brothers and sisters, let’s summarize. When you meet together, one will sing, another will teach, another will tell some special revelation God has given, one will speak in tongues, and another will interpret what is said. But everything that is done must strengthen all of you.

Pray for us, too, that God will give us many opportunities to speak about his mysterious plan concerning Christ. That is why I am here in chains.Pray that I will proclaim this message as clearly as I should.

Now if the Gentiles were enriched because the people of Israel turned down God’s offer of salvation, think how much greater a blessing the world will share when they finally accept it.

So because of your superior knowledge, a weak believer for whom Christ died will be destroyed.

So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding.Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better.

For God, who said,“ Let there be light in the darkness,” has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ.

He gives one person the power to perform miracles, and another the ability to prophesy. He gives someone else the ability to discern whether a message is from the Spirit of God or from another spirit. Still another person is given the ability to speak in unknown languages, while another is given the ability to interpret what is being said.

For what gives you the right to make such a judgment? What do you have that God hasn’t given you? And if everything you have is from God, why boast as though it were not a gift?You think you already have everything you need. You think you are already rich. You have begun to reign in God’s kingdom without us! I wish you really were reigning already, for then we would be reigning with you.Instead, I sometimes think God has put us apostles on display, like prisoners of war at the end of a victor’s parade, condemned to die. We have become a spectacle to the entire world— to people and angels alike.Our dedication to Christ makes us look like fools, but you claim to be so wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are so powerful! You are honored, but we are ridiculed.

And everyone present was filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in other languages, as the Holy Spirit gave them this ability.
