   16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that   
   occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks,   
   seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?   
      
   17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.   
      
   18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:   
      
   19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my   
   understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten   
   thousand words in an unknown tongue.   
      
   20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye   
   children, but in understanding be men.   
      
   21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips   
   will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear   
   me, saith the Lord.   
      
   22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to   
   them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe   
   not, but for them which believe.   
      
   23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and   
   all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or   
   unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?   
      
   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.   
      
   38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant.   
      
   39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with   
   tongues.   
      
   40 Let all things be done decently and in order.
