6. We have gifts that differ according to the grace that was given to us—if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;
7. if service, in our serving; or the one who teaches, in his teaching;
8. or the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who gives, in generosity; the one who leads, with diligence; the one who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
9. Let love be without hypocrisy—detesting what is evil, holding fast to the good.
10. Be tenderly devoted to one another in brotherly love; outdo one another in giving honor.
11. Do not be lagging in zeal; be fervent in spirit. Keep serving the Lord,
12. rejoicing in hope, enduring in distress, persisting in prayer,
13. contributing to the needs of the kedoshim, extending hospitality.
14. Bless those who persecute you—bless and do not curse.
