8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

11 But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.KJV
