14 Be _pursuing the love, and be _being _zealous the for _spiritual matters, but more that you _all _may _be _prophesying.
2 For/Because the one speaking with_a_tongue, not to _people is _speaking, but to_god, because/for no _one is _hearing him, but in _spirit he _is _speaking mysteries.
3 But the one prophesying, to _people is _speaking building, and exhortation, and consolation.
4 The one speaking in_a_tongue, himself is _building, but the one prophesying, the_assembly is _building.
5 And I _am _wanting all you _all to _be _speaking with _tongues, but rather in _order _that you _all _may _be _prophesying, greater is and the one prophesying, than the one speaking in _tongues, besides except not/lest he _may _be _interpreting, in _order _that the assembly building may _receive.
6 But now brothers, if I _may _come to you _all with _tongues speaking, what you _all I _will _be _benefiting, if not to _you _all I _may _speak, either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching?
7 Likewise the soulless things a_sound giving, whether flute, or harp, if distinction to _the sounds not may _give, how will _be _being _known what is being _playing _the _flute or which being _playing _the _harp?
8 For/Because also if an_uncertain a_trumpet sound may _give, who will _be _preparing himself for war?
9 Thus also you _all through the tongue, if not easily _recognized speech you _all _may _give, how will _be _being _known what is being _spoken?
For/Because you _all _will _be into the_air speaking.
10 So _many if it _might _happen, kinds of _languages are in the_world, and not _one kind silent is.
11 Therefore if not I _may _have _known the power of _the sound, I _will _be to _the one speaking a_foreigner, and the one speaking with me a_foreigner.
12 Thus also you _all, because zealous you _all _are of _spirits, because/for the building of _the assembly, be _seeking that you _all _may _be _being _plentiful.
13 Therefore the one speaking in_a_tongue, let _be _praying that he _may _be _interpreting.
14 If for I _may _be _praying with_a_tongue, the spirit of _me is _praying, but the the_mind of _me unfruitful is.
15 Therefore what it _is?
I _will _be _praying with _the spirit, but I _will _be _praying also with _the mind.
I _will _be _singing _praises with _the spirit, but I _will _be _singing _praises also with _the mind.
16 Otherwise if you _may _be _blessing in _spirit, the one fulfilling the place of _the inquirer, how he _will _be _saying, the Truly, at the your thanksgiving, since what you _are _saying, not he _has _known?
17 You for indeed well are _giving _thanks, but the other one not is _being _built.
18 I _am _giving _thanks to_ the _god, all of _you more than, with _tongues I _am _speaking, 19 but in five, the_assembly I _am _wanting words with _the mind of _me to _speak, in _order _that also others I _may _instruct, than ten _thousand words in a_tongue.
20 Brothers, not little _children be _becoming in _your thinking, but in _the evil, be _child _like, and in _your thinking, mature be _becoming.
21 In the law it _has _been _written, that By foreign _languages and by the_lips of _others, I _will _be _speaking to_ the _people this… and not _even thus they _will _be _listening _to from _me, is _saying the_master.
22 So _then the tongues for a_sign are, not to _the ones believing, but to _the unbelievers, and the prophecy, not to _the unbelievers, but to _the ones believing.
23 Therefore if may _come _together the assembly whole at the same place, and all may _be _speaking with _tongues, and may _come _in inquirers or unbelievers, not they _will _be _saying that you _all _are _raving _mad?
24 But if all may _be _prophesying, and may _come _in a_certain unbeliever or inquirer, he _is _being _rebuked by all, he _is _being _examined by all, 25 the secrets of _the heart of _him manifest is _becoming, and thus having _fallen on ^his_face, he _will _be _prostrating the before_god reporting, that Really the god among you _all is.
26 Therefore what it _is, brothers?
Whenever you _all _may _be _coming _together, each a_psalm is _having, a_teaching is _having, a_revelation is _having, a_tongue is _having, a_translation is _having.
All things for building let _be _becoming.
27 If _also with_a_tongue anyone is _speaking, by two or the most three, and each in _turn let _it _be, and one let _be _interpreting.
28 But if not may _be an_interpreter, him _let _be _keeping _silent in the_assembly, and to _himself him _let _be _speaking and to_ the _god.
29 Prophets two and or three let _be _speaking, and the others let _be _distinguishing.
30 But if to _another may _be _revealed something sitting, the first let _be _keeping _silent.
31 For/Because you _all _are _being _able one _by one all to _be _prophesying, in _order _that all may _be _learning, and all may _be _being _exhorted.
32 And spirits of _prophets, to _prophets is _being _subjected.
33 For/Because not is of _disturbance the god, but of _peace.
As in all the assemblies of _the holy ones, 34 the women in the assemblies let _be _keeping _silent, because/for not it _is _being _permitted to _them to _be _speaking, but them _let _be _being _subjected, as also the law is _saying.
35 And if anything to _learn they _are _wanting, at home their own husbands them _let _be _asking, because/for shameful it _is for_a_woman to _be _speaking in the_assembly.
36 Either from you _all the message of_ the _god came _out, or to you _all only it _arrived?
37 If anyone is _supposing a_prophet to _be or spiritual, him _let _be _recognizing what I _am _writing to _you _all that of_the_master it _is a_command.
38 But if anyone is _not _knowing, him _let _be _not _knowing.
39 So _as, brothers, be _being _zealous which to _be _prophesying, and which to _be _speaking not be _forbidding with with _tongues.
40 But all things properly and with order let _be _becoming.
