哥林多前书 14:20-22

Chinese New Version (Traditional)

²⁰弟兄們，你們在思想上不要作小孩子，卻要在惡事上作嬰孩，在思想上作成年人。 ²¹律法上記著說：“主說：

我要藉著說別種話的人，

用外國人的嘴唇，

對這人民說話；

雖然這樣，他們還是不聽我。”

²²可見說方言不是要給信主的人作記號，而是要給未信的人；講道不是要給未信的人，而是要給信主的人作記號。

1 Corinthians 14:20-22

New King James Version

Tongues a Sign to Unbelievers

²⁰Brethren, ^(A)do not be children in understanding; however, in malice ^(B)be babes, but in understanding be mature.

²¹^(C)In the law it is written:

^(D)“With men of other tongues and other lips
I will speak to this people;
And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me,”

says the Lord.

²²Therefore tongues are for a ^(E)sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe.

New International Version

²⁰Brothers and sisters, stop thinking like children.^(A) In regard to evil be infants,^(B) but in your thinking be adults. ²¹In the Law^(C) it is written:

“With other tongues
and through the lips of foreigners
I will speak to this people,
but even then they will not listen to me,^(D)
says the Lord.”^[a]

²²Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers but for unbelievers; prophecy,^(E) however, is not for unbelievers but for believers.
