⁷ But unto each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

³ For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think as to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to each man a measure of faith.

¹⁰ according as each hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God;

⁶ And having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, `let us prophesy' according to the proportion of our faith;

⁷ or ministry, `let us give ourselves' to our ministry; or he that teacheth, to his teaching;

⁸ or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting: he that giveth, `let him do it' with liberality; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.

¹⁵ And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to each according to his several ability; and he went on his journey.

²⁸ And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, `divers' kinds of tongues.

²⁹ Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all `workers of' miracles?

³⁰ have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

⁸ Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach unto the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

² if so be that ye have heard of the dispensation of that grace of God which was given me to you-ward;

⁷ But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal.

⁸ For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit:

⁹ to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;

¹⁰ and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another `divers' kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues:

¹¹ but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.

³⁴ For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for he giveth not the Spirit by measure.

⁸ Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men.

⁹ (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth?

¹⁰ He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.)

¹¹ And he gave some `to be' apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

¹² for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:

¹³ till we all attain unto the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a fullgrown man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

¹⁴ that we may be no longer children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, in craftiness, after the wiles of error;

¹ And working together `with him' we entreat also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain

¹³ But we will not glory beyond `our' measure, but according to the measure of the province which God apportioned to us as a measure, to reach even unto you.

¹⁴ For we stretch not ourselves overmuch, as though we reached not unto you: for we came even as far as unto you in the gospel of Christ:

¹⁵ not glorying beyond `our' measure, `that is,' in other men's labors; but having hope that, as your faith groweth, we shall be magnified in you according to our province unto `further' abundance,
