6 Since, then, we have gifts that differ according to the undeserved kindness given to us,+ if it is of prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; 7 or if it is a ministry, let us be at this ministry; or the one who teaches, let him be at his teaching;+ 8 or the one who encourages, let him give encouragement;+ the one who distributes, let him do it liberally;+ the one who presides, let him do it diligently;*+ the one who shows mercy, let him do it cheerfully.+
