Unto

Wherefore he says, Having ascended up on high, he has led captivity captive, and has given gifts to men.

And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his particular ability, and immediately went away out of the country.

But having different gifts, according to the grace which has been given to us, whether it be prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith;

For to one, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

Grace

To me, less than the least of all saints, has this grace been given, to announce among the nations the glad tidings of the unsearchable riches of the Christ,

But as fellow-workmen, we also beseech that ye receive not the grace of God in vain:

each according as he has received a gift, ministering it to one another, as good stewards of the various grace of God.

The measure

(if indeed ye have heard of the administration of the grace of God which has been given to me towards you,

for he whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives not the Spirit by measure.

For I say, through the grace which has been given to me, to every one that is among you, not to have high thoughts above what he should think; but to think so as to be wise, as God has dealt to each a measure of faith.

Now we will not boast out of measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure has apportioned to us, to reach to you also.
