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
New American Standard Bible
3 For through (A)the grace given to me I say to everyone among you (B)not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to (C)each a measure of faith. 4 For (D)just as we have many parts in one body and all [a]the body’s parts do not have the same function, 5 so we, (E)who are many, are (F)one body in Christ, and individually parts of one another. 6 However, since we have gifts that (G)differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly: if (H)prophecy, [b]in proportion to one’s faith; 7 if [c](I)service, in the act of serving; or the one who (J)teaches, in the act of teaching; 8 or the one who [d](K)exhorts, in the work of [e]exhortation; the one who gives, with [f](L)generosity; (M)the one who [g]is in leadership, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with (N)cheerfulness.
