26 How is it then, brethren? When ye come together every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two or at the most by three, and then in turn, and let one interpret.

28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church, and let him speak to himself and to God.

29 Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.

30 If anything be revealed to another who sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.

31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be comforted.

32 The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,

33 for God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as it is in all churches of the saints.

As in all the churches of the saints,
