e worships God, declaring
that God is really among you.
11 [14:26]What then is [to be done] brothers? When you come together,
each one of you has a psalm, has a doctrine, has a revelation, has an
interpretation; let all things be done for edification. [14:27]If any
one speaks with a tongue, let it be by two or at most by three, and by
turns, and let one interpret; [14:28] and if there is no interpreter,
let him be silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to
God. [14:29]Let two or three prophets speak, and let the rest judge;
[14:30]but if any thing is revealed to another sitting by, let the
first be silent. [14:31]For you can all prophesy one by one, that all
may learn, and all be comforted. [14:32]And the spirits of prophets are
subject to the prophets; [14:33]for God is not [the friend] of disorder
but of peace.
12 [14:34]As in all the churches of the saints, let your women keep
silence in the assemblies; for it is not permitted to them to speak,
but to be in subjection, as the law also says. [14:35]But if they wish
to learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home; for it is a
shame for a woman to speak in an assembly. [14:36]Did the word of God
go out from you, or did it come to you alone?
13 [14:37]If any one thinks he is a prophet, or a spiritual man, let
him acknowledge the [things] which I write to you, that they are the
Lord's; [14:38] but if any one is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
[14:39]Therefore, brothers, desire earnestly to prophesy, and forbid
not to speak with tongues; [14:40]but let all things be done becomingly
and in order.
CHAPTER VII.
THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD.
1 [15:1]I DECLARE to you, brothers, the gospel which I preached to you,
which you also received, in which also you stand, [15:2]by which also
you are saved, if you adhere to the word we preached to you, unless
indeed you believed in vain. [15:3]For I delivered to you at first,
what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the
Scriptures, [15:4]and that he was buried, and that he rose on the third
day according to the Scriptures, [15:5]and that he appeared to Cephas,
then to the twelve. [15:6]Afterwards he appeared to more than five
hundred brothers at once, of whom the most continue even to the present
time, but some have fallen asleep. [15:7]Then he appeared to James,
then to all the apostles, [15:8]and last of all he appeared to me also,
as one born out of due time. [15:9]For
