Bible. Corinthians, 1st
46:014:016 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that
occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of
thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?
46:014:017 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not
edified.
46:014:018 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
46:014:019 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my
understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also,
than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.
46:014:020 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice
be ye children, but in understanding be men.
46:014:021 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other
lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will
they not hear me, saith the Lord.
46:014:022 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe,
but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for
them that believe not, but for them which believe.
46:014:023 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place,
and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are
unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?
46:014:024 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not,
or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:
46:014:025 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so
falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that
God is in you of a truth.
46:014:026 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of
you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a
revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done
unto edifying.
46:014:027 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at
the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
46:014:028 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the
church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
46:014:029 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
46:014:030 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the
first hold his peace.
46:014:031 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and
all may be comforted.
46:014:032 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
46:014:033 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in
all churches of the saints.
46:014:034 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not
permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be
under obedience as also saith the law.
46:014:035 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands
at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
