1 Corinthians 14:33-36
Wycliffe Bible
33 for why God is not of dissension, but of peace; as I teach in all churches of holy men.
34 Women in churches be still; for it is not suffered to them to speak, but to be subject, as the law saith.
35 But if they will any thing learn, ask they their husbands at home; for it is foul thing to a woman to speak in the church.
36 Whether the word of God came forth of you, or to you alone it came?

New Matthew Bible
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as he is in all other congregations of the saints.
34 Let your wives keep silence in the congregations. For it is not permitted to them to speak, but let them be under obedience, as the law says. 35 If they wish to learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is unseemly for women to speak in the congregation.
36 Did the word of God come forth from you? Or did it come to you only?

1599 Geneva Bible
33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as we see in all the Churches of the Saints.
34 (A)[a]Let your women keep silence in the Churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak: but they ought to be subject, as also (B)the Law saith.
35 And if they will learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the Church.
36 [b]Came the word of God out from you? either came it unto you only?
