Romans 12:3-8

Christian Standard Bible

Many Gifts but One Body

³ For by the grace^(A) given to me, I tell everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he should think.^(B) Instead, think sensibly, as God has distributed a measure of faith^(C) to each one. ⁴ Now as we have many parts in one body,^(D) and all the parts do not have the same function, ⁵ in the same way we who are many^(E) are one body in Christ^(F) and individually members of one another. ⁶ According to the grace given to us, we have different gifts:^(G) If prophecy,^(H) use it according to the proportion of one’s^[a] faith; ⁷ if service,^(I) use it in service; if teaching,^(J) in teaching; ⁸ if exhorting,^(K) in exhortation; giving, with generosity;^(L) leading,^(M) with diligence; showing mercy, with cheerfulness.^(N)
