3
KJV
For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
4

So we, [being] many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
6
KJV
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, whether prophecy, [let us prophesy] according to the proportion of faith;
7
KJV
Or ministry, [let us wait] on [our] ministering: or he that teacheth, on teaching;
8
KJV
Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, [let him do it] with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.
