Then what is it ,
brothers ?
When you come together ,
each one of you has a psalm ,
he has a teaching ,
he has a language ,
he has a revelation ,
he has an interpretation .
Let all things be for building up .
*
If one speaks in a language ,
let it be by two or three at the most ,
and in turn ,
also let one interpret .
*
And if there is no interpreter ,
let him be silent in church ,
and let him speak to himself and to God .
*
And if there are two or three prophets ,
let them speak ,
and let the others discern .
*
But if a revelation is revealed to another sitting by ,
let the first be silent .
*
For you can all prophesy one by one ,
that all may learn ,
and all may be encouraged .
*
And the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets .
*
For God is not God of confusion ,
but of peace ,
as in all the churches of the saints .
*
Let your women be silent in the churches ,
for it is not allowed to them to speak ,
but to be in subjection ,
as also the Law says .
*
But if they desire to learn anything ,
let them question their husbands at home ;
for it is a shame for a woman to speak in a church .
*
Or did the Word of God go out from you ?
Or did it reach only to you ?
*
If anyone thinks to be a prophet ,
or a spiritual one ,
let him recognize the things I write to you ,
that they are a command of the Lord .
*
But if any be ignorant ,
let him be ignorant .
*
So then ,
brothers ,
seek eagerly to prophesy ,
and do not forbid to speak in languages .
*
And let all things be done decently and in order .
