 ³For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

 ⁴For as we have many members in one body, and all members have not the same office:

 ⁵So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

 ⁶Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

 ⁷Or ministry, let us wait on our ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;

 ⁸Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

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

 ⁵And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

 ⁶And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

 ⁷But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

 ⁸For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;

 ⁹To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

 ¹⁰To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:

 ¹¹But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.

 ¹²For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

 ¹³For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.

 ¹⁰As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

 ¹¹If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
