New Testament

1 Corinthians 14:28-34 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

28. But if there is no interpreter, then anyone who speaks in a different language should be quiet in the church meeting. They should speak only to themselves and to God.

29. And only two or three prophets should speak. The others should judge what they say.

30. And if a message from God comes to someone who is sitting, the first speaker should be quiet.

31. You can all prophesy one after the other. This way everyone can be taught and encouraged.

32. The spirits of prophets are under the control of the prophets themselves.

33. God is not a God of confusion but a God of peace. This is the rule for all the meetings of God’s people.

34. The women should keep quiet in these church meetings. They are not allowed to speak out but should be under authority, as the Law of Moses says.
