9 to another [wonder-working] faith [is given] by the same [Holy] Spirit, 
and to another the [extraordinary] gifts of healings by the one Spirit; 

10 and to another the working of miracles, and to another prophecy
[foretelling the future, speaking a new message from God to the people],

to another various kinds of [unknown] tongues, and
