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

10 and to another in-workings of mighty deeds; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; and to another [various] kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues:

11 and the one and the same Spirit works all these, dividing to each individually as He intends.

12 For even as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the one body, being many, are one body, so also [is] the Christ,

13 for also in one Spirit we were all immersed into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether servants or freemen, and all were made to drink one Spirit,
