1 Corinthians 14:1-25

Follow
<1377> (5720)

after charity
<26>_,

and
<1161>

desire
<2206> (5720)

spiritual
<4152>

[gifts], but
<1161>

rather
<3123>

that
<2443>

ye may prophesy
<4395> (5725)_.

For
<1063>

he that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>

speaketh
<2980> (5719)

not
<3756>

unto men
<444>_,

but
<235>

unto God
<2316>_:

for
<1063>

no man
<3762>

understandeth
<191> (5719)

[him]; howbeit
<1161>

in the spirit
<4151>

he speaketh
<2980> (5719)

mysteries
<3466>_.

{understandeth: Gr. heareth}

But
<1161>

he that prophesieth
<4395> (5723)

speaketh
<2980> (5719)

unto men
<444>

[to] edification
<3619>_,

and
<2532>

exhortation
<3874>_,

and
<2532>

comfort
<3889>_.

He that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>

edifieth
<3618> (5719)

himself
<1438>_;

but
<1161>

he that prophesieth
<4395> (5723)

edifieth
<3618> (5719)

the church
<1577>_.

<1161>@ I would
<2309> (5719)

that ye
<5209>

all
<3956>

spake
<2980> (5721)

with tongues
<1100>_,

but
<1161>

rather
<3123>

that
<2443>

ye prophesied
<4395> (5725)_:

for
<1063>

greater
<3187>

[is] he that prophesieth
<4395> (5723)

than
<2228>

he that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

with tongues
<1100>_,

except
<1622> <1508>

he interpret
<1329> (5725)_,

that
<2443>

the church
<1577>

may receive
<2983> (5632)

edifying
<3619>_.

<1161>@ Now
<3570>_,

brethren
<80>_,

if
<1437>

I come
<2064> (5632)

unto
<4314>

you
<5209>

speaking
<2980> (5723)

with tongues
<1100>_,

what
<5101>

shall I profit
<5623> (5692)

you
<5209>_,

except
<3362>

I shall speak
<2980> (5661)

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>_?

And even
<3676>

things without life
<895>

giving
<1325> (5723)

sound
<5456>_,

whether
<1535>

pipe
<836>

or
<1535>

harp
<2788>_,

except
<3362>

they give
<1325> (5632)

a distinction
<1293>

in the sounds
<5353>_,

how
<4459>

shall it be known
<1097> (5701)

what is piped
<832> (5746)

or
<2228>

harped
<2789> (5746)_?

{sounds: or, tunes}

For
<1063> <2532>

if
<1437>

the trumpet
<4536>

give
<1325> (5632)

an uncertain
<82>

sound
<5456>_,

who
<5101>

shall prepare himself
<3903> (5695)

to
<1519>

the battle
<4171>_?

So
<3779>

likewise
<2532>

ye
<5210>_,

except
<3362>

ye utter
<1325> (5632)

by
<1223>

the tongue
<1100>

words
<3056>

easy to be understood
<2154>_,

how
<4459>

shall it be known
<1097> (5701)

what is spoken
<2980> (5746)_?

for
<1063>

ye shall
<2071> (5704)

speak
<2980> (5723)

into
<1519>

the air
<109>_.

{easy...: Gr. significant}

<1487>@ There are
<2076> (5748)_,

it may be
<5177> (5630)_,

so many
<5118>

kinds
<1085>

of voices
<5456>

in
<1722>

the world
<2889>_,

and
<2532>

none of them
<3762>

[is] without signification
<880> (5625) <846>_.

Therefore
<3767>

if
<3362> (0)

I know
<1492> (5762)

not
<3362>

the meaning
<1411>

of the voice
<5456>_,

I shall be
<2071> (5704)

unto him that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

a barbarian
<915>_,

and
<2532>

he that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

[shall be] a barbarian
<915>

unto
<1722>

me
<1698>_.

Even
<2532>

so
<3779>

ye
<5210>_,

forasmuch as
<1893>

ye are
<2075> (5748)

zealous
<2207>

of spiritual
<4151>

[gifts], seek
<2212> (5720)

that
<2443>

ye may excel
<4052> (5725)

to
<4314>

the edifying
<3619>

of the church
<1577>_.

{of spiritual gifts: Gr. of spirits}

Wherefore
<1355>

let him that speaketh
<2980> (5723)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>

pray
<4336> (5737)

that
<2443>

he may interpret
<1329> (5725)_.

For
<1063>

if
<1437>

I pray
<4336> (5741)

in an [unknown] tongue
<1100>_,

my
<3450>

spirit
<4151>

prayeth
<4336> (5736)_,

but
<1161>

my
<3450>

understanding
<3563>

is
<2076> (5748)

unfruitful
<175>_.

What
<5101>

is it
<2076> (5748)

then
<3767>_?

I will pray
<4336> (5695)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

and
<1161>

I will pray
<4336> (5695)

with the understanding
<3563>

also
<2532>_:

I will sing
<5567> (5692)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

and
<1161>

I will sing
<5567> (5692)

with the understanding
<3563>

also
<2532>_.

Else
<1893>

when
<1437>

thou shalt bless
<2127> (5661)

with the spirit
<4151>_,

how
<4459>

shall he that occupieth
<378> (5723)

the room
<5117>

of the unlearned
<2399>

say
<2046> (5692)

Amen
<281>

at
<1909>

thy
<4674>

giving of thanks
<2169>_,

seeing
<1894>

he understandeth
<1492> (5758)

not
<3756>

what
<5101>

thou sayest
<3004> (5719)_?

For
<1063>

thou
<4771>

verily
<3303>

givest thanks
<2168> (5719)

well
<2573>_,

but
<235>

the other
<2087>

is
<3618> (0)

not
<3756>

edified
<3618> (5743)_.

I thank
<2168> (5719)

my
<3450>

God
<2316>_,

I speak
<2980> (5723)

with tongues
<1100>

more than
<3123>

ye
<5216>

all
<3956>_:

Yet
<235>

in
<1722>

the church
<1577>

I had rather
<2309> (5719)

speak
<2980> (5658)

five
<4002>

words
<3056>

with
<1223>

my
<3450>

understanding
<3563>_,

that
<2443>

[by my voice] I might teach
<2727> (5661)

others
<243>

also
<2532>_,

than
<2228>

ten thousand
<3463>

words
<3056>

in
<1722>

an [unknown] tongue
<1100>_.

Brethren
<80>_,

be
<1096> (5737)

not
<3361>

children
<3813>

in understanding
<5424>_:

howbeit
<235>

in malice
<2549>

be ye children
<3515> (5720)_,

but
<1161>

in understanding
<5424>

be
<1096> (5737)

men
<5046>_.

{men: Gr. perfect, or, of a ripe age}

In
<1722>

the law
<3551>

it is written
<1125> (5769)_,

<3754>

With
<1722>

[men of] other tongues
<2084>

and
<2532>

other
<1722> <2087>

lips
<5491>

will I speak
<2980> (5692)

unto this
<5129>

people
<2992>_;

and
<2532>

yet for all
<3779>

that will they
<1522> (0)

not
<3761>

hear
<1522> (5695)

me
<3450>_,

saith
<3004> (5719)

the Lord
<2962>_.

Wherefore
<5620>

tongues
<1100>

are
<1526> (5748)

for
<1519>

a sign
<4592>_,

not
<3756>

to them that believe
<4100> (5723)_,

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> (5723)_.

If
<1437>

therefore
<3767>

the whole
<3650>

church
<1577>

be come together
<4905> (5632)

into
<1909>

one place
<846>_,

and
<2532>

all
<3956>

speak
<2980> (5725)

with tongues
<1100>_,

and
<1161>

there come in
<1525> (5632)

[those that are] unlearned
<2399>_,

or
<2228>

unbelievers
<571>_,

will they
<2046> (0)

not
<3756>

say
<2046> (5692)

that
<3754>

ye are mad
<3105> (5736)_?

But
<1161>

if
<1437>

all
<3956>

prophesy
<4395> (5725)_,

and
<1161>

there come in
<1525> (5632)

one
<5100>

that believeth not
<571>_,

or
<2228>

[one] unlearned
<2399>_,

he is convinced
<1651> (5743)

of
<5259>

all
<3956>_,

he is judged
<350> (5743)

of
<5259>

all
<3956>_:

And
<2532>

thus
<3779>

are
<1096> (0)

the secrets
<2927>

of his
<846>

heart
<2588>

made
<1096> (5736)

manifest
<5318>_;

and
<2532>

so
<3779>

falling down
<4098> (5631)

on
<1909>

[his] face
<4383>

he will worship
<4352> (5692)

God
<2316>_,

and report
<518> (5723)

that
<3754>

God
<2316>

is
<2076> (5748)

in
<1722>

you
<5213>

of a truth
<3689>_.
