Romans 12:3-8
Legacy Standard Bible
3 For through (A)the grace given to me I say to each one among you (B)not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound thinking, as God has allotted to (C)each a measure of faith. 4 For (D)just as we have many members in one body and all the members do not have the same function, 5 so we, (E)who are many, are (F)one body in Christ, and individually members one of another, 6 but having gifts that (G)differ according to the grace given to us: whether (H)prophecy, [a]in agreement with the faith; 7 or [b](I)service, in his serving; or he who (J)teaches, in his teaching; 8 or he who (K)exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with [c](L)generosity; (M)he who [d]leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with (N)cheerfulness.

Romans 12:3-8
Evangelical Heritage Version
Humbly Use the Gifts God Gave You
3 So by the grace given to me, I tell everyone among you not to think of yourself more highly than you ought, but think in a way that results in sound judgment, as God distributed a measure of faith to each of you. 4 For we have many members in one body, and not all the members have the same function. 5 In the same way, though we are many, we are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.
6 We have different gifts, according to the grace God has given us. If the gift is prophecy, do it in complete agreement with the faith.[a] 7 If it is serving, then serve. If it is teaching, then teach. 8 If it is encouraging, then encourage. If it is contributing, be generous. If it is leadership, be diligent. If it is showing mercy, do it cheerfully.
