To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by the same Spirit,

to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,

It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

For we know in part and we prophesy in part,

but when the perfect comes, the partial passes away.
