14 Remember to use the gift that you have. That gift was given to you through a prophecy when the group of elders laid their hands on[a] you. 15 Continue to do those things. Give your life to doing them. Then everyone can see that your work is progressing. 16 Be careful in your life and in your teaching. Continue to live and teach rightly. Then you will save yourself and those people who listen to you.

14 Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy(A) when the body of elders(B) laid their hands on you.(C)
