14 Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.

³⁹ Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues.

¹⁴ Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

¹⁴ Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.

¹⁴ Let all your things be done with charity.

12 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

¹³ And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

²⁰ Despise not prophesyings.

³ But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort.

⁴ He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

⁵ I would that ye all spake with tongues but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

⁹ The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.
