INTERFERES WITH NO HONEST CALLING, but rather alleviates, dignifies, and makes it subservient to the noblest ends. III. TEACHES UNIVERSAL CONTENTMENT. 1. In the recognition of the Divine will. 2. By the enjoyment of the Divine blessing. (J. Lyth, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk.
