97 Lord, how I love your law! ♦︎
All the day long it is my study.
98 Your commandments have made me wiser than my enemies, ♦︎
for they are ever with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers, ♦︎
for your testimonies are my meditation.
100 I am wiser than the aged, ♦︎
because I keep your commandments.
101 I restrain my feet from every evil way, ♦︎
that I may keep your word.
102 I have not turned aside from your judgements, ♦︎
for you have been my teacher.
103 How sweet are your words on my tongue! ♦︎
They are sweeter than honey to my mouth.
104 Through your commandments I get understanding; ♦︎
therefore I hate all lying ways.
105 Your word is a lantern to my feet ♦︎
and a light upon my path.
106 I have sworn and will fulfil it, ♦︎
to keep your righteous judgements.
107 I am troubled above measure; ♦︎
give me life, O Lord, according to your word.
108 Accept the freewill offering of my mouth, O Lord, ♦︎
and teach me your judgements.
109 My soul is ever in my hand, ♦︎
yet I do not forget your law.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me, ♦︎
but I have not strayed from your commandments.
111 Your testimonies have I claimed as my heritage for ever; ♦︎
for they are the very joy of my heart.
112 I have applied my heart to fulfil your statutes: ♦︎
always, even to the end.

4 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; 5and there are varieties of services, but the same Lord; 6and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who activates all of them in everyone. 7To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the discernment of spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11All these are activated by one and the same Spirit, who allots to each one individually just as the Spirit chooses.
