    1Pursue love, and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

    2For the one who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God, because no one understands; they speak mysteries by the Spirit.

    3But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening, encouragement, and comfort.

    4The one who speaks in a tongue builds up themselves, but the one who prophesies builds up the church.

    5I wish that all of you spoke in tongues, but I would rather you prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless they interpret so that the church may be built up.

    6Now, brothers and sisters, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what good will I be to you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?

    23So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

    24But if everyone is prophesying and an unbeliever or uninitiated person enters, they are convicted of sin by all and are examined by all.

    25The secrets of their heart are revealed, and they will fall facedown and worship God, exclaiming, 'God is truly among you!'

    26What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each one has a hymn, a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Everything must be done so that the church may be built up.

    27If anyone speaks in a tongue, let it be two or at most three, each in turn, and let someone interpret.

    28But if there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep silent in the church and speak to themselves and to God.

    29Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others evaluate what is said.

    30If something is revealed to another sitting there, the first speaker should stop.
