SPEAKING TO EDIFICA- TION.
7 Beareth all_things, believeth all_ things, hopeth all_things, endureth all_ things.
8 J-Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they_shall _ fail; whether there be tongues, they_shall_ cease; whether there be knowledge, it_ shall_vanish away.
® For we_know in part, and we_pro- phesy in part.
10 But when that_which_is perfect sis.come, then that_which_is in part shall_be_done_away.
11 When I_~was a ‘child, I_~spake as a ‘child, I_-understood as a ‘child, I_ w thought as a ichild: but swhen I_ “becamea man, I_‘put_away irchildish things.
12 For now we-see ’ through a mglass, odarkly ; but then face to face: now I_ know in part; but then shall_I_s know even_as also I_‘am_/ known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, ! cha- rity, these «three; but the greatest of these zs ! «charity.
1 4 'FOLLOW_after / d'desire -=spiritual gifts, but rather that ye_may_prophesy.
2 For =he_that speaketh in_an_un- known_tongue speaketh not unto_men, but unto_-God: for no_o man /: under- standeth him; howbeit in_the_spirit he_speaketh mysteries.
8 But he_that prophesieth speaketh unto._men to edification, and exhor- tation, and comfort.
4-1He_that speaketh in_an_wun- known_tongue edifieth himself; but ethe _that prophesieth edifieth the church.
5 ,>I_'would that_ye all 'spake with_ tongues, but rather that ye_'prophesied ; for greater 7s -+he_that prophesieth than he_that speaketh with_tongues, except he_interpret, that the church "mnay-receive edifying.
6 ,b Now, brethren, if I_-come unto you speaking with_tongues, what shall_ I_profit you, except I_shall_speak to_ you either by revelation, or by know- ledge, or by prophesying, or by doc- trine?
7 And_even things w 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 ?
§ For «if the trumpet -give an un- certain sound, who shall_prepare_him- self to the battle?
2 So likewise pe, except ye_-utter by the tongue -words easy_to_be_under- stood, how shall_it_-be_known what is_spoken? for ye_shall +speak into the air.
10 There_are, it_may_be, so_many kinds of_vyoices in the world, and none of_them 7s without_signification.
11 Therefore if I_‘know not the pmeaning of_the voice, Ishall_be unto -him_that speaketh a barbarian, and -he_that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto_me.
12 Even so pe, forasmuch-_as ye_are
146
e zealous of_=spiritual gifts, 'seek that ye_may_excel to the edifying of_the church.
€. 13 Wherefore 'let him_that speaketh
in_an_unknown_tongue pray that he_ may _interpret.
144 For if_I_pray in_an_unknown_ 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 when thou_shalt_bless with_ the spirit, how shall -4he_that occu- pieth the 7! room of_the -unlearned say “eAmen” at cthy giving_of_thanks, seeing he_‘understandeth not what thou_sayest ?
17 For thow verily givest_thanks well, but the other is not edified. ;
18 T_thank my -God, J_+speak with. tongues more than_ye all:
19 Yet in the church I_'had_rather ‘speak five words with my cunder- standing, that by my voice I_-might_ teach others also, than ten_thousand words in an unknown tongue.
20 Brethren, -be not children in ~=un- derstanding: howbeit in -malice 'be_ ye_ichildren, but in -=understanding «be p men.
21 In the law it_‘is_written,
“Witt men of OTHER-TONGUES AND AO OTHER LIPS WILL I_ SPEAK UNTO_THIS "PEOPLE ; ‘
AND YET FOR_ALL_THAT WILL_THEY NOT HEAR ME, SAITH 4 thé Lor.”
22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to_~them_that believe, but to_ them_that believe_not : but -prophesy- ing serveth not for_them_that believe_ not, but for -+them_which believe.
os 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 un- believers, 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_cconvinced lof =all, 3
he is judged 4 of =all:
2 And thus are the secrets of_his cheart 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 interpreta-| og
tion. *Let all_things be_done unto edifying.
2 Tf any manspeak in_an_unknown_ tongue) let it be by two, or at_the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. oy
28 But if there_be no interpreter, 'let_ him_keep-silence in the church; and ‘let_him_speak to_himself, and to_-God.
29 ,b'Let the prophets speak two or three, and ‘let the =other @ijudge.
