Let the husband give his wife her due, and likewise the wife her husband. The wife is not mistress of her own person,

I have no command from the Lord to give you concerning unmarried women; but I give you my opinion, and it is that of a man who, through the Lord's mercy, is deserving of your confidence.

Now to each man has been given his manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.

For to one man by the Spirit has been given a word of wisdom, to another a word of insight by the same Spirit;

But the one and the same Spirit gives power to all, distributing his gifts to each as he wills.

For if lifeless instruments such as the flute or the harp give no distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is fluted or harped?

Or, for example, if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, what soldier will be prepared for battle?

But God gives it what body he pleases, and to each kind of seed its own body.

But thanks be to God, who has given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
