1 Corinthians 12:7 Cross References - JPS_ASV_Byz

⁷ But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit to profit withal.

¹⁴ For it is as when a man, going into another country, called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. ¹⁵ And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his several ability, and he went on his journey. ¹⁶ Then he that received the five talents went and traded with them, and made other five talents. ¹⁷ In like manner he also that received the two gained also other two. ¹⁸ But he that received the one went away and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. ¹⁹ Now after a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and maketh a reckoning with them. ²⁰ And he that received the five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents; lo, I have gained other five talents beside them. ²¹ And his lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things, enter thou into the joy of thy lord. ²² And he also that received the two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents; lo, I have gained other two talents beside them. ²³ His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things, enter thou into the joy of thy lord. ²⁴ And he also that had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou didst not sow, and gathering where thou didst not scatter, ²⁵ and I was afraid, and went away and hid thy talent in the earth; lo, thou hast thine own. ²⁶ But his lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I did not scatter, ²⁷ thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back mine own with interest. ²⁸ Take ye away therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him that hath the ten talents. ²⁹ For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance; but from him that hath not, even that which he hath shall be taken away from him. ³⁰ And cast ye out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness; there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

⁶ And having gifts differing according to the grace that was given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of our faith, ⁷ or ministry, let us give ourselves to our ministry, or he that teacheth, to his teaching, ⁸ or he that exhorteth, to his exhorting; he that giveth, let him do it with liberality, he that ruleth, with diligence, he that showeth mercy, with cheerfulness.

⁵ Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy; for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

¹² So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church.

¹⁷ For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.

¹⁹ howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to them that believe. ²³ If therefore the whole church be assembled together and all speak with tongues, and there come in men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are mad? ²⁴ But if all prophesy, and there come in one unbelieving or unlearned, he is reproved by all, he is judged by all, ²⁵ and thus the secrets of his heart are made manifest, and so he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed. ²⁶ What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

⁷ But unto each one of us was the grace given according to the measure of the gift of Christ. ⁸ Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men. ⁹ (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? ¹⁰ He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.) ¹¹ And he gave some to be apostles, and some, prophets, and some, evangelists, and some, pastors and teachers, ¹² for the perfecting of the saints, unto the work of ministering, unto the building up of the body of Christ:

¹⁰ according as each hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God, ¹¹ if any man speaketh, speaking as it were oracles of God, if any man ministereth, ministering as of the strength as God supplieth; that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
