New Testament

1 Corinthians 14:25-34 God's Word Translation (GW)

25. The secrets in their hearts will become known, and in this way they will quickly bow with their faces touching the ground, worship God, and confess that God is truly among you.

26. So 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.

27. If 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.

28. But if an interpreter isn’t present, those people should remain silent in church. They should only speak to themselves and to God.

29. Two or three people should speak what God has revealed. Everyone else should decide whether what each person said is right or wrong.

30. If God reveals something to another person who is seated, the first speaker should be silent.

31. All of you can take your turns speaking what God has revealed. In that way, everyone will learn and be encouraged.

32. People who speak what God has revealed must control themselves.

33. God is not a God of disorder but a God of peace.As in all the churches of God’s holy people,

34. the women must keep silent. They don’t have the right to speak. They must take their place as Moses’ Teachings say.
