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

But one and the same Spirit worketh all these, dividing to every one severally as he willeth.

For as the body is one, and yet hath many members, but all the members of the body, many as they are, are one body, so is Christ.

For the body is not one member, but many. If the foot should say,

But now hath God set the members, every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him.

Whereas now there are indeed many members, yet but one body.

For our comely parts have no need; but God hath tempered the body together, giving more abundant honour to that which lacked:

That there might be no schism in the body, but that the members might have the same care for each other:

Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? But covet earnestly the best gifts.

Doth not behave indecently, seeketh not her own, is not provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not at iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth:

Love never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

When I was a child, I talked as a child, I understood as a child, I reasoned as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

And now we see by means of a glass obscurely; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then I shall know even as also I am known.

And now abide these three, faith, hope, love; but the greatest of these is love.

Follow after love: and desire spiritual gifts; but especially that ye may prophesy.

For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue, speaketh not to men, but to God; for no one understandeth him, though by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries:

He that speaketh in an unknown tongue, edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.

I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied; for he that prophesieth, is greater than he that speaketh with tongues, unless he interpret, that the church may receive edification.

For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my Spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.

What then is my duty? I will pray with the Spirit; but I will pray with the understanding also; I will sing with the Spirit; but I will sing with the understanding also.
