4Now hthere are diversities of gifts, but ithe same Spirit. 5And kthere are ldifferences of administrations, but ithe same Lord. 6And there are diversities of moperations, but it is ithe same God which worketh all in nall. 7oBut the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. 8For to one is given by the Spirit the word of pwisdom; to another the word of qknowledge by the same Spirit; 9to another rfaith sby the same Spirit; to another tthe gifts of healing by the same Spirit; 10to another the mworking of umiracles; to another xprophecy; to another ydiscerning of spirits; to another zdivers kinds of tongues; to another athe interpretation of tongues: 11but all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, aadividing to every man severally bas he will.

12For cas the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, cbeing many, are one body: dso also is Christ. 13For eby one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, fwhether we be Jews or Gentiles, fwhether we be bond or free; and ghave been all made to drink into hone Spirit. 14For the body is not one member, but many. 15If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 16And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? 17If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? 18But now ihath God set the members every one of them in the body, bas jit hath pleased him. 19And if they were all one member, where were the body? 20But now are they cmany members, yet but one body. 21And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. 22Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: 23and those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our kuncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. 24For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: 25that there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another. 26And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members lrejoice with it. 27Now dmye are the body of Christ, and nmembers oin particular.

28And iGod hath set some in the church, first pqapostles, secondarily pqrprophets, thirdly pteachers, after that smiracles, then tgifts of healings, uhelps, xgovernments, diversities of tongues. 29Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? 30have all the tgifts of healing? ydo all speak with tongues? ydo all interpret?
