New Testament

1 Corinthians 14:33-40 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

33. And God is not of dissension, but of peace, just as I also teach in all the churches of the saints.

34. Women should be silent in the churches. For it is not permitted for them to speak; but instead, they should be subordinate, as the law also says.

35. And if they want to learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in church.

36. So now, did the Word of God proceed from you? Or was it sent to you alone?

37. If anyone seems to be a prophet or a spiritual person, he should understand these things which I am writing to you, that these things are the commandments of the Lord.

38. If anyone does not recognize these things, he should not be recognized.

39. And so, brothers, be zealous to prophesy, and do not prohibit speaking in tongues.

40. But let everything be done respectfully and according to proper order.
