Legacy Standard Bible
7 (A)The end of all things is at hand; therefore, (B)be of sound thinking and sober spirit for the purpose of [a]prayer. 8 Above all, (C)keep fervent in your love for one another, because (D)love covers a multitude of sins. 9 (E)Be hospitable to one another without (F)grumbling. 10 (G)As each one has received a gift, employ it in serving one another as good (H)stewards of the manifold grace of God— 11 (I)whoever speaks, [b]as one speaking the (J)oracles of God; whoever serves, as one serving [c](K)by the strength which God supplies; so that (L)in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, (M)to whom belongs the glory and might forever and ever. Amen.

New Living Translation
7 The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers. 8 Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay.
10 God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. 11 Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All glory and power to him forever and ever! Amen.
