²⁶So what does this mean, brothers and sisters? When you gather, each person has a psalm, doctrine, revelation, another language, or an interpretation. Everything must be done to help each other grow. ²⁷If people speak in other languages, only two or three at the most should speak. They should do it one at a time, and someone must interpret what each person says. ²⁸But if an interpreter isn’t present, those people should remain silent in church. They should only speak to themselves and to God.

²⁹Two or three people should speak what God has revealed. Everyone else should decide whether what each person said is right or wrong. ³⁰If God reveals something to another person who is seated, the first speaker should be silent. ³¹All of you can take your turns speaking what God has revealed. In that way, everyone will learn and be encouraged. ³²People who speak what God has revealed must control themselves. ³³God is not a God of disorder but a God of peace.

As in all the churches of God’s holy people, ³⁴the women must keep silent. They don’t have the right to speak. They must take their place as Moses’ Teachings say. ³⁵If they want to know anything they should ask their husbands at home. It’s shameful for a woman to speak in church. ³⁶Did God’s word originate with you? Are you the only ones it has reached?

³⁷Whoever thinks that he speaks for God or that he is spiritually gifted must acknowledge that what I write to you is what the Lord commands. ³⁸But whoever ignores what I write should be ignored.

³⁹So, brothers and sisters, desire to speak what God has revealed, and don’t keep anyone from speaking in other languages. ⁴⁰Everything must be done in a proper and orderly way.
