1 Corinthians - douay rheims

Chapter 14

¹ FOLLOW after charity, be zealous for spiritual gifts; but rather that you may prophesy.
² For he that speaketh in a tongue, speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man heareth. Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.
³ But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
⁴ He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.
⁵ And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.
⁶ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?
⁷ Even things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped ?
⁸ For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle ?
⁹ So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said ? For you shall be speaking into the air.
¹⁰ There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.
¹¹ If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian to me.
¹² So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of the church.
¹³ And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.
¹⁴ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.
¹⁵ What is it then ? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.
¹⁶ Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing ? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.
¹⁷ For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
¹⁸ I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.
¹⁹ But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; than ten thousand words in a tongue.
²⁰ Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.
²¹ In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord.
²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.
²³ If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad ?
²⁴ But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all.
²⁵ The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.
²⁶ How is it then, brethren ? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.
²⁷ If any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one interpret.
²⁸ But if there be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.
²⁹ And let the prophets speak, two or three; and let the rest judge.
³⁰ But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.
³¹ For you may all prophesy one by one; that all may learn, and all may be exhorted:
³² And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
³³ For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints.
³⁴ Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.
³⁵ But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame for a woman to speak in the church.
³⁶ Or did the word of God come out from you ? Or came it only unto you ?
³⁷ If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.
³⁸ But if any man know not, he shall not be known.
³⁹ Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with tongues.
⁴⁰ But let all things be done decently, and according to order.

Chapter 14

¹ Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.
² For he that speaketh in an unknown language, speaketh not to men, but to God: for no man understandeth him; yet in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
³ But he that prophesieth, speaketh to men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
⁴ He that speaketh in an unknown language edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
⁵ I would that ye all spoke in languages, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh in languages, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
⁶ Now, brethren, if I come to you speaking in languages, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
⁷ And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
⁸ For if the trumpet shall give an uncertain sound, who will prepare himself for battle?
⁹ So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will speak into the air.
¹⁰ There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification.
¹¹ Therefore, if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian to me.
¹² Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church.
¹³ Wherefore, let him that speaketh in an unknown language, pray that he may interpret.
¹⁴ For if I pray in an unknown language, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
¹⁵ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
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 in languages more than ye all:
¹⁹ Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown language.
²⁰ Brethren, be not children in understanding: yet 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 to this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
²² Wherefore languages 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 who believe.
²³ If therefore the whole church is assembled in one place, and all speak in languages, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are insane?
²⁴ But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced by all, he is judged by 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 in truth.
²⁶ How is it then, brethren? when ye are assembled, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a language, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done to edification.
²⁷ If any man speaketh in an unknown language, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
²⁸ But if there is 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 others judge.
³⁰ If any thing is 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 to 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 to you only?
³⁷ If any man thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write to you are the commandments of the Lord.
³⁸ But if any man is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
³⁹ Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak in languages.
⁴⁰ Let all things be done decently, and in order.

Chapter 14

¹ after love, and earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
² he who speaks in another language speaks not to men, but to God; for no one understands; but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.
³ he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, exhortation, and consolation.
⁴ who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the assembly.
⁵ I desire to have you all speak with other languages, but rather that you would prophesy. For he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the assembly may be built up.
⁶ now, brothers, if I come to you speaking with other languages, what would I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?
⁷ things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they didn't give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?
⁸ if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
⁹ also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air.
¹⁰ are, it may be, so many kinds of sounds in the world, and none of them is without meaning.
¹¹ then I don't know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.
¹² also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.
¹³ let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.
¹⁴ if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
¹⁵ is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
¹⁶ if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the "Amen" at your giving of thanks, seeing he doesn't know what you say?
¹⁷ you most certainly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up.
¹⁸ thank my God, I speak with other languages more than you all.
¹⁹ in the assembly I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.
²⁰ don't be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.
²¹ the law it is written, "By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. Not even thus will they hear me, says the Lord."
²² other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.
²³ therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won't they say that you are crazy?
²⁴ if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.
²⁵ thus the secrets of his heart are revealed. So he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
²⁶ is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.
²⁷ any man speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.
²⁸ if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God.
²⁹ the prophets speak, two or three, and let the others discern.
³⁰ if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent.
³¹ you all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted.
³² spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,
³³ God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. As in all the assemblies of the saints,
³⁴ your wives keep silent in the assemblies, for it has not been permitted for them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as the law also says.
³⁵ they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a woman to chatter in the assembly.
³⁶ Was it from you that the word of God went out? Or did it come to you alone?
³⁷ any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.
³⁸ if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
³⁹ brothers, desire earnestly to prophesy, and don't forbid speaking with other languages.
⁴⁰ all things be done decently and in order.

Chapter 14

¹ Follow after love, and be emulous of spiritual [manifestations], but rather that ye may prophesy.
² For he that speaks with a tongue does not speak to men but to God: for no one hears; but in spirit he speaks mysteries.
³ But he that prophesies speaks to men [in] edification, and encouragement, and consolation.
⁴ He that speaks with a tongue edifies himself; but he that prophesies edifies [the] assembly.
⁵ Now I desire that ye should all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy. But greater is he that prophesies than he that speaks with tongues, unless he interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.
⁶ And now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching?
⁷ Even lifeless things giving a sound, whether pipe or harp, if they give not distinction to the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
⁸ For also, if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself for war?
⁹ Thus also *ye* with the tongue, unless ye give a distinct speech, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will be speaking to the air.
¹⁰ There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of undistinguishable sound.
¹¹ If therefore I do not know the power of the sound, I shall be to him that speaks a barbarian, and he that speaks a barbarian for me.
¹² Thus *ye* also, since ye are desirous of spirits, seek that ye may abound for the edification of the assembly.
¹³ Wherefore let him that speaks with a tongue pray that he may interpret.
¹⁴ For if I pray with a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
¹⁵ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, but I will sing also with the understanding.
¹⁶ Since otherwise, if thou blessest with [the] spirit, how shall he who fills the place of the simple [Christian] say Amen, at thy giving of thanks, since he does not know what thou sayest?
¹⁷ For *thou* indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
¹⁸ I thank God I speak in a tongue more than all of you:
¹⁹ but in [the] assembly I desire to speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, [rather] than ten thousand words in a tongue.
²⁰ Brethren, be not children in [your] minds, but in malice be babes; but in [your] minds be grown [men].
²¹ It is written in the law, By people of other tongues, and by strange lips, will I speak to this people; and neither thus will they hear me, saith the Lord.
²² So that tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to unbelievers; but prophecy, not to unbelievers, but to those who believe.
²³ If therefore the whole assembly come together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and simple [persons] enter in, or unbelievers, will not they say ye are mad?
²⁴ But if all prophesy, and some unbeliever or simple [person] come in, he is convicted of all, he is judged of all;
²⁵ the secrets of his heart are manifested; and thus, falling upon [his] face, he will do homage to God, reporting that God is indeed amongst you.
²⁶ What is it then, brethren? whenever ye come together, each [of you] has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to edification.
²⁷ If any one speak with a tongue, [let it be] two, or at the most three, and separately, and let one interpret;
²⁸ but if there be no interpreter, let him be silent in [the] assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.
²⁹ And let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.
³⁰ But if there be a revelation to another sitting [there], let the first be silent.
³¹ For ye can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all be encouraged.
³² And spirits of prophets are subject to prophets.
³³ For God is not [a God] of disorder but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the saints.
³⁴ Let [your] women be silent in the assemblies, for it is not permitted to them to speak; but to be in subjection, as the law also says.
³⁵ But if they wish to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is a shame for a woman to speak in assembly.
³⁶ Did the word of God go out from you, or did it come to you only?
³⁷ If any one thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him recognise the things that I write to you, that it is [the] Lord's commandment.
³⁸ But if any be ignorant, let him be ignorant.
³⁹ So that, brethren, desire to prophesy, and do not forbid the speaking with tongues.
⁴⁰ But let all things be done comelily and with order.

Chapter 14

¹ Follow after love; yet desire earnestly spiritual [gifts], but rather that ye may prophesy.
² For he that speaketh in a tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God; for no man understandeth; but in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
³ But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men edification, and exhortation, and consolation.
⁴ He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.
⁵ Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: and greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.
⁶ But now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?
⁷ Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they give not a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
⁸ For if the trumpet give an uncertain voice, who shall prepare himself for war?
⁹ So also ye, unless ye utter by the tongue speech easy to understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will be speaking into the air.
¹⁰ There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and no [kind] is without signification.
¹¹ If then I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will be a barbarian unto me.
¹² So also ye, since ye are zealous of spiritual [gifts], seek that ye may abound unto the edifying of the church.
¹³ Wherefore let him that speaketh in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
¹⁴ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.
¹⁵ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
¹⁶ Else if thou bless with the spirit, how shall he that filleth the place of the unlearned say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?
¹⁷ For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
¹⁸ I thank God, I speak with tongues more than you all:
¹⁹ howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.
²⁰ Brethren, be not children in mind: yet in malice be ye babes, but in mind be men.
²¹ In the law it is written, By men of strange tongues and by the lips of strangers will I speak unto this people; and not even thus will they hear me, saith the Lord.
²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to the unbelieving: but prophesying [is for a sign], not to the unbelieving, but to them that believe.
²³ If therefore the whole church be assembled together and all speak with tongues, and there come in men unlearned or unbelieving, will they not say that ye are mad?
²⁴ But if all prophesy, and there come in one unbelieving or unlearned, he is reproved by all, he is judged by all;
²⁵ the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
²⁶ What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
²⁷ If any man speaketh in a tongue, [let it be] by two, or at the most three, and [that] in turn; 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 And let the prophets speak [by] two or three, and let the others discern.
³⁰ But if a revelation be made to another sitting by, let the first keep silence.
³¹ For ye all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted;
³² and the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets;
³³ for God is not [a God] of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,
³⁴ let the women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as also saith the law.
³⁵ And if they would learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home: for it is shameful for a woman to speak in the church.
³⁶ What? was it from you that the word of God went forth? or came it unto you alone?
³⁷ If any man thinketh himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him take knowledge of the things which I write unto you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.
³⁸ But if any man is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
³⁹ Wherefore, my brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.
⁴⁰ But let all things be done decently and in order.

Chapter 14

¹ Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.
² For he who makes use of tongues is not talking to men but to God; because no one has the sense of what he is saying; but in the Spirit he is talking of secret things.
³ But the word of the prophet gives men knowledge and comfort and strength.
⁴ He who makes use of tongues may do good to himself; but he who gives the prophet's word does good to the church.
⁵ Now though it is my desire for you all to have the power of tongues, it would give me more pleasure to be hearing the prophet's word from you; for this is a greater thing than using tongues, if the sense is not given at the same time, for the good of the church.
⁶ But, now, my brothers, if I come to you using tongues, what profit will it be to you, if I do not give you a revelation, or knowledge, or the word of the prophet, or teaching?
⁷ Even things without life, having a voice, such as a music-pipe or other instrument, if they do not give out different sounds, who may be certain what is being played?
⁸ For if the war-horn gives out an uncertain note, who will get ready for the fight?
⁹ So if you, in using a strange tongue, say words which have no sense, how will anyone take in what you are saying? for you will be talking to the air.
¹⁰ There are, it may be, a number of different voices in the world, and no voice is without sense.
¹¹ But if the sense of the voice is not clear to me, I am like a man from a strange country to him who is talking, and he will be the same to me.
¹² So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.
¹³ For this reason, let the man who has the power of using tongues make request that he may, at the same time, be able to give the sense.
¹⁴ For if I make use of tongues in my prayers, my spirit makes the prayer, but not my mind.
¹⁵ What then? let my prayer be from the spirit, and equally from the mind; let my song be from the spirit, and equally from mind.
¹⁶ For if you give a blessing with the spirit, how will the man who has no knowledge say, So be it, after your prayer, seeing that he has not taken in what you are saying?
¹⁷ For your giving of the blessing is certainly well done, but of no profit to the man without knowledge.
¹⁸ I give praise to God that I am able to make use of tongues more than you all:
¹⁹ But in the church it would be better for me to make use of five words of which the sense was clear, so that others might have profit, than ten thousand words in a strange tongue.
²⁰ My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.
²¹ In the law it is said, By men of other tongues and by strange lips will my words come to this people; and not even so will they give ear to me, says the Lord.
²² For this reason tongues are for a sign, not to those who have faith, but to those who have not: but the prophet's word is for those who have faith, and not for the rest who have not.
²³ If, then, the church has come together, and all are using tongues, and there come in men without knowledge or faith, will they not say that you are unbalanced?
²⁴ But if all are teaching as prophets, and a man without faith or knowledge comes in, he is tested by all, he is judged by all;
²⁵ The secrets of his heart are made clear; and he will go down on his face and give worship to God, saying that God is truly among you.
²⁶ What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.
²⁷ If any man makes use of a tongue, let it not be more than two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let someone give the sense:
²⁸ But if there is no one to give the sense, let him keep quiet in the church; and let his words be to himself and to God.
²⁹ And let the prophets give their words, but not more than two or three, and let the others be judges of what they say.
³⁰ But if a revelation is given to another who is seated near, let the first be quiet.
³¹ For you may all be prophets in turn so that all may get knowledge and comfort;
³² And the spirits of the prophets are controlled by the prophets;
³³ For God is not a God whose ways are without order, but a God of peace; as in all the churches of the saints.
³⁴ Let women keep quiet in the churches: for it is not right for them to be talking; but let them be under control, as it says in the law.
³⁵ And if they have a desire for knowledge about anything, let them put questions to their husbands privately: for talking in the church puts shame on a woman.
³⁶ What? was it from you that the word of God went out? or did it only come in to you?
³⁷ If any man seems to himself to be a prophet or to have the Spirit, let him take note of the things which I am writing to you, as being the word of the Lord.
³⁸ But if any man is without knowledge, let him be so.
³⁹ So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.
⁴⁰ Let all things be done in the right and ordered way.
