1 Follow 1377 after charity 26, and 1161 desire 2206 spiritual 4152 gifts, but 1161 rather 3123 that 2443 ye may prophesy 4395.
2 For 1063 he that speaketh 2980 in an unknown tongue 1100 speaketh 2980 not 3756 unto men 444, but 235 unto God 2316: for 1063 no man 3762 understandeth 191 him; howbeit 1161 in the spirit 4151 he speaketh 2980 mysteries 3466.
3 But 1161 he that prophesieth 4395 speaketh 2980 unto men 444 to edification 3619, and 2532 exhortation 3874, and 2532 comfort 3889.
4 He that speaketh 2980 in an unknown tongue 1100 edifieth 3618 himself 1438; but 1161 he that prophesieth 4395 edifieth 3618 the church 1577.
5 1161 I would 2309 that ye 5209 all 3956 spake 2980 with tongues 1100, but 1161 rather 3123 that 2443 ye prophesied 4395: for 1063 greater 3187 is he that prophesieth 4395 than 2228 he that speaketh 2980 with tongues 1100, except 1622 1508 he interpret 1329, that 2443 the church 1577 may receive 2983 edifying 3619.
6 1161 Now 3570, brethren 80, if 1437 I come 2064 unto 4314 you 5209 speaking 2980 with tongues 1100, what 5101 shall I profit 5623 you 5209, except 3362 I shall speak 2980 to you 5213 either 2228 by 1722 revelation 602, or 2228 by 1722 knowledge 1108, or 2228 by 1722 prophesying 4394, or 2228 by 1722 doctrine 1322?
7 And even 3676 things without life 895 giving 1325 sound 5456, whether 1535 pipe 836 or 1535 harp 2788, except 3362 they give 1325 a distinction 1293 in the sounds 5353, how 4459 shall it be known 1097 what is piped 832 or 2228 harped 2789?
8 For 1063 2532 if 1437 the trumpet 4536 give 1325 an uncertain 82 sound 5456, who 5101 shall prepare himself 3903 to 1519 the battle 4171?
9 So 3779 likewise 2532 ye 5210, except 3362 ye utter 1325 by 1223 the tongue 1100 words 3056 easy to be understood 2154, how 4459 shall it be known 1097 what is spoken 2980? for 1063 ye shall 2071 speak 2980 into 1519 the air 109.
10 1487 There are 2076, it may be 5177, so many 5118 kinds 1085 of voices 5456 in 1722 the world 2889, and 2532 none of them 3762 is without signification 880.
11 Therefore 3767 if 3362 0 I know 1492 not 3362 the meaning 1411 of the voice 5456, I shall be 2071 unto him that speaketh 2980 a barbarian 915, and 2532 he that speaketh 2980 shall be a barbarian 915 unto 1722 me 1698.
12 Even 2532 so 3779 ye 5210, forasmuch as 1893 ye are 2075 zealous 2207 of spiritual 4151 gifts, seek 2212 that 2443 ye may excel 4052 to 4314 the edifying 3619 of the church 1577.
13 Wherefore 1355 let him that speaketh 2980 in an unknown tongue 1100 pray 4336 that 2443 he may interpret 1329.
14 For 1063 if 1437 I pray 4336 in an unknown tongue 1100, my 3450 spirit 4151 prayeth 4336, but 1161 my 3450 understanding 3563 is 2076 unfruitful 175.
15 What 5101 is it 2076 then 3767? I will pray 4336 with the spirit 4151, and 1161 I will pray 4336 with the understanding 3563 also 2532: I will sing 5567 with the spirit 4151, and 1161 I will sing 5567 with the understanding 3563 also 2532.
16 Else 1893 when 1437 thou shalt bless 2127 with the spirit 4151, how 4459 shall he that occupieth 378 the room 5117 of the unlearned 2399 say 2046 Amen 281 at 1909 thy 4674 giving of thanks 2169, seeing 1894 he understandeth 1492 not 3756 what 5101 thou sayest 3004?
17 For 1063 thou 4771 verily 3303 givest thanks 2168 well 2573, but 235 the other 2087 is 3618 0 not 3756 edified 3618.
18 I thank 2168 my 3450 God 2316, I speak 2980 with tongues 1100 more than 3123 ye 5216 all 3956:
19 Yet 235 in 1722 the church 1577 I had rather 2309 speak 2980 five 4002 words 3056 with 1223 my 3450 understanding 3563, that 2443 by my voice I might teach 2727 others 243 also 2532, than 2228 ten thousand 3463 words 3056 in 1722 an unknown tongue 1100.
20 Brethren 80, be 1096 not 3361 children 3813 in understanding 5424: howbeit 235 in malice 2549 be ye children 3515, but 1161 in understanding 5424 be 1096 men 5046.
21 In 1722 the law 3551 it is written 1125, 3754 With 1722 men of other tongues 2084 and 2532 other 1722 2087 lips 5491 will I speak 2980 unto this 5129 people 2992; and 2532 yet for all 3779 that will they 1522 0 not 3761 hear 1522 me 3450, saith 3004 the Lord 2962.
22 Wherefore 5620 tongues 1100 are 1526 for 1519 a sign 4592, not 3756 to them that believe 4100, but 235 to them that believe not 571: but 1161 prophesying 4394 serveth not 3756 for them that believe not 571, but 235 for them which believe 4100.
23 If 1437 therefore 3767 the whole 3650 church 1577 be come together 4905 into 1909 one place 846, and 2532 all 3956 speak 2980 with tongues 1100, and 1161 there come in 1525 those that are unlearned 2399, or 2228 unbelievers 571, will they 2046 0 not 3756 say 2046 that 3754 ye are mad 3105?
24 But 1161 if 1437 all 3956 prophesy 4395, and 1161 there come in 1525 one 5100 that believeth not 571, or 2228 one unlearned 2399, he is convinced 1651 of 5259 all 3956, he is judged 350 of 5259 all 3956:
25 And 2532 thus 3779 are 1096 0 the secrets 2927 of his 846 heart 2588 made 1096 manifest 5318; and 2532 so 3779 falling down 4098 on 1909 his face 4383 he will worship 4352 God 2316, and report 518 that 3754 God 2316 is 2076 in 1722 you 5213 of a truth 3689.
26 How 5101 is it 2076 then 3767, brethren 80? when 3752 ye come together 4905, every one 1538 of you 5216 hath 2192 a psalm 5568, hath 2192 a doctrine 1322, hath 2192 a tongue 1100, hath 2192 a revelation 602, hath 2192 an interpretation 2058. Let 1096 0 all things 3956 be done 1096 unto 4314 edifying 3619.
27 If 1535 any man 5100 speak 2980 in an unknown tongue 1100, let it be by 2596 two 1417, or 2228 at the most 4118 by three 5140, and 2532 that by 303 course 3313; and 2532 let 1329 0 one 1520 interpret 1329.
28 But 1161 if 3362 0 there be 5600 no 3362 interpreter 1328, let him keep silence 4601 in 1722 the church 1577; and 1161 let him speak 2980 to himself 1438, and 2532 to God 2316.
29 1161 Let 2980 0 the prophets 4396 speak 2980 two 1417 or 2228 three 5140, and 2532 let 1252 0 the other 243 judge 1252.
30 If 1161 1437 any thing be revealed 601 to another 243 that sitteth by 2521, let 4601 0 the first 4413 hold his peace 4601.
31 For 1063 ye may 1410 all 3956 prophesy 4395 one by one 2596 1520, that 2443 all 3956 may learn 3129, and 2532 all 3956 may be comforted 3870.
32 And 2532 the spirits 4151 of the prophets 4396 are subject 5293 to the prophets 4396.
33 For 1063 God 2316 is 2076 not 3756 the author of confusion 181, but 235 of peace 1515, as 5613 in 1722 all 3956 churches 1577 of the saints 40.
34 Let 4601 0 your 5216 women 1135 keep silence 4601 in 1722 the churches 1577: for 1063 it is 2010 0 not 3756 permitted 2010 unto them 846 to speak 2980; but 235 they are commanded to be under obedience 5293, as 2531 also 2532 saith 3004 the law 3551.
35 And 1161 if 1487 they will 2309 learn 3129 any thing 5100, let them ask 1905 their 2398 husbands 435 at 1722 home 3624: for 1063 it is 2076 a shame 149 for women 1135 to speak 2980 in 1722 the church 1577.
36 What 2228? came 1831 0 the word 3056 of God 2316 out 1831 from 575 you 5216? or 2228 came it 2658 unto 1519 you 5209 only 3441?
37 If any man 1536 think himself 1380 to be 1511 a prophet 4396, or 2228 spiritual 4152, let him acknowledge 1921 that 3754 the things 3739 that I write 1125 unto you 5213 are 1526 the commandments 1785 of the Lord 2962.
38 But 1161 if any man 1536 be ignorant 50, let him be ignorant 50.
39 Wherefore 5620, brethren 80, covet 2206 to prophesy 4395, and 2532 forbid 2967 not 3361 to speak 2980 with tongues 1100.
40 Let 1096 0 all things 3956 be done 1096 decently 2156 and 2532 in 2596 order 5010.
