^{26 Ref} What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.

^{27 Ref} If any man makes use of a tongue, let it not be more than two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let someone give the sense:

²⁸ But if there is no one to give the sense, let him keep quiet in the church; and let his words be to himself and to God.

^{29 Ref} And let the prophets give their words, but not more than two or three, and let the others be judges of what they say.

^{30 Ref} But if a revelation is given to another who is seated near, let the first be quiet.

^{31 Ref} For you may all be prophets in turn so that all may get knowledge and comfort;

^{32 Ref} And the spirits of the prophets are controlled by the prophets;

^{33 Ref} For God is not a God whose ways are without order, but a God of peace; as in all the churches of the saints.
