1 Corinthians 14:24-37
-
24 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:
-
25 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.
-
26 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.
-
27 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.
-
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
-
29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
-
30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
-
31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.
-
32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
-
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
-
34 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.
-
35 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.
-
36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
-
37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
