1 Corinthians 14:26-40

26What is it then, brothers and sisters? Whenever you come together, each one has a psalm, a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

27If someone speaks in a tongue, let it be by two or at most three, and each in turn; and let one interpret.

28But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the community but speak to himself and to God.

29Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others evaluate.

30But if something is revealed to another sitting nearby, let the first one become silent.

31For you can all prophesy one by one, so all may learn and be encouraged.

32The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,

33for God is not a God of confusion, but shalom. As in all the communities of the kedoshim,

34let women keep silent in the communities, for it is not permitted for them to speak out. Rather let them be in order, as the Torah also says.

35If they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home—for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak out in the community.

36Did the word of God originate with you? Or did it reach you alone?

37If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize that what I write to you is the Lord’s command.

38But if someone does not recognize it, he is not recognized.

39Therefore, brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.

40But let everything be done decently and in order.
