1 Corinthians 12:10and to another in-workings of mighty deeds; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; and to another divers kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues:1 Corinthians 12:28And some, indeed, did God set in the assembly, first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly teachers, afterwards powers, afterwards gifts of healings, helpings, governings, divers kinds of tongues;1 Corinthians 12:30have all gifts of healings? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?1 Corinthians 13:8The love doth never fail; and whether there be prophecies, they shall become useless; whether tongues, they shall cease; whether knowledge, it shall become useless;1 Corinthians 14:2for he who is speaking in an unknown tongue—to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;1 Corinthians 14:3and he who is prophesying to men doth speak edification, and exhortation, and comfort;1 Corinthians 14:4he who is speaking in an unknown tongue, himself doth edify, and he who is prophesying, an assembly doth edify;1 Corinthians 14:5and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that ye may prophecy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.1 Corinthians 14:6And now, brethren, if I may come unto you speaking tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in teaching?1 Corinthians 14:7yet the things without life giving sound—whether pipe or harp—if a difference in the sounds they may not give, how shall be known that which is piped or that which is harped?1 Corinthians 14:8for if also an uncertain sound a trumpet may give, who shall prepare himself for battle?1 Corinthians 14:9so also ye, if through the tongue, speech easily understood ye may not give—how shall that which is spoken be known? for ye shall be speaking to air.1 Corinthians 14:10There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is unmeaning,1 Corinthians 14:11if, then, I do not know the power of the voice, I shall be to him who is speaking a foreigner, and he who is speaking, is to me a foreigner;1 Corinthians 14:12so also ye, since ye are earnestly desirous of spiritual gifts, for the building up of the assembly seek that ye may abound;1 Corinthians 14:13wherefore he who is speaking in an unknown tongue—let him pray that he may interpret;1 Corinthians 14:14for if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit doth pray, and my understanding is unfruitful.1 Corinthians 14:15What then is it? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms also with the understanding;1 Corinthians 14:16since, if thou mayest bless with the spirit, he who is filling the place of the unlearned, how shall he say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, since what thou dost say he hath not known?1 Corinthians 14:17for thou, indeed, dost give thanks well, but the other is not built up!1 Corinthians 14:18I give thanks to my God—more than you all with tongues speaking—1 Corinthians 14:19but in an assembly I wish to speak five words through my understanding, that others also I may instruct, rather than myriads of words in an unknown tongue.1 Corinthians 14:21in the law it hath been written, that, ‘With other tongues and with other lips I will speak to this people, and not even so will they hear Me, saith the Lord;’1 Corinthians 14:22so that the tongues are for a sign, not to the believing, but to the unbelieving; and the prophesy is not for the unbelieving, but for the believing,1 Corinthians 14:23If, therefore, the whole assembly may come together, to the same place, and all may speak with tongues, and there may come in unlearned or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?1 Corinthians 14:24and if all may prophecy, and any one may come in, an unbeliever or unlearned, he is convicted by all, he is discerned by all,1 Corinthians 14:25and so the secrets of his heart become manifest, and so having fallen upon his face, he will bow before God, declaring that God really is among you.1 Corinthians 14:26What then is it, brethren? whenever ye may come together, each of you hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? let all things be for building up;1 Corinthians 14:27if an unknown tongue any one do speak, by two, or at the most, by three, and in turn, and let one interpret;1 Corinthians 14:28and if there may be no interpreter, let him be silent in an assembly, and to himself let him speak, and to God.1 Corinthians 14:39so that, brethren, earnestly desire to prophesy, and to speak with tongues do not forbid;
