1 Corinthians 14
1 Follow after love and earnestly desire spiritual gifts, but especially that you may prophesy.
ⲁ̅ⲡⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ. ⲕⲱϩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲉⲡⲛⲉⲩⲙⲁⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ. ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ.
2 For he who speaks in another language speaks not to men, but to God, for no one understands, but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲉⲣⲟϥ. ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ.
3 But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, exhortation, and consolation.
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲡⲥ̅ ⲙⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲗⲥⲗ̅.
4 He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the assembly.
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲁⲁϥ. ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ·
5 Now I desire to have you all speak with other languages, but even more that you would prophesy. For he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the assembly may be built up.
ⲉ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ⲛ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ. ⲛⲁⲉⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲥⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲃⲟⲗ. ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲛϥ̅ⲛⲁⲃⲱⲗ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϫⲓ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ·
6 But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking with other languages, what would I profit you unless I speak to you either by way of revelation, or of knowledge, or of prophesying, or of teaching?
ⲋ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲛⲁϯϩⲏⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩ. ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲧⲙ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲏⲧⲛ̅. ⲏ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲏ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ. ⲏ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ. ⲏ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲃⲱ.
7 Even lifeless things that make a sound, whether pipe or harp, if they didn’t give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?
ⲍ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲣⲱ ⲛ̅ⲁⲯⲩⲭⲟⲛ ⲉⲩϯ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲩⲥⲙⲏ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲏⲃⲉ ⲛ̅ϫⲱ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲕⲓⲑⲁⲣⲁ. ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛⲧⲙ̅ϯ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲱⲣϫ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲩϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ. ⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲱ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲏ̅ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲕⲓⲑⲁⲣⲓⲍⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ.
8 For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
ⲏ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲡⲓⲅⲝ̅ ϯ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲥⲃ̅ⲧⲱⲧϥ̅ ⲉⲡⲡⲟⲗⲉⲙⲟⲥ.
9 So also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air.
ⲑ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲁⲛⲧⲙ̅ϯ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ. ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲏⲣ.
10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them is without meaning.
ⲓ̅ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲡⲥ̅ ⲙ̅ⲙⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲙⲏ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲧϥ̅ⲥⲙⲏ.
11 If then I don’t know the meaning of the language, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲧⲙ̅ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲥⲙⲏ ϯⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲓ̈.
12 So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲱⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲉ. ⲉⲡⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲣⲉϥⲕⲱϩ ⲉⲛⲉⲡⲛⲉⲩⲙⲁⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲡⲕⲱⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ. ϣⲓⲛⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲣ̅ϩⲟⲩⲟ.
13 Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉⲡⲁⲓ̈ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϣⲗⲏⲗ. ϫⲉⲕⲁⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲃⲱⲗ.
14 For if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛϣⲗⲏⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ⲡⲁⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲗⲏⲗ. ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲧⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ.
15 What should I do? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ⲟⲩ ϭⲉ ⲡⲉϯⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅. ϯⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲟⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲕⲉϩⲏⲧ. ϯⲛⲁⲯⲁⲗⲗⲉⲓ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅. ϯⲛⲁⲯⲁⲗⲗⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲕⲉϩⲏⲧ.
16 Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who fills the place of the unlearned say the “Amen” at your giving of thanks, seeing he doesn’t know what you say?
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲕϣⲁⲛⲥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲡⲉⲧϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲁ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲛ̅ⲁϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲉ ϥⲛⲁϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲡϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲕϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ. ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϫⲉⲟⲩ ⲛϥ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ.
17 For you most certainly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲟⲕ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ ⲕϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲕⲱⲧ ⲁⲛ·
18 I thank my God, I speak with other languages more than you all.
ⲓ̅ⲏ̅ϯϣⲡ̅ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲛ̅ⲧⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϫⲉ ϯϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉⲣⲱⲧⲛ̅ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲥⲡⲉ.
19 However, in the assembly I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϯⲟⲩⲉϣϯⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲕⲁⲑⲏⲅⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉⲟⲩⲧⲃⲁ ⲛ̅ϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ.
20 Brothers, don’t be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲙ̅ⲡⲣ̅ⲣ̅ⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲣⲓⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲕⲁⲕⲓⲁ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲣ̅ⲧⲉⲗⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ.
21 In the law it is written, “By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. They won’t even listen to me that way, says the Lord.”
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ϥⲥⲏϩ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ̈ ϩⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ⲙⲛ̅ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲥⲡⲟⲧⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲁϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲉⲓ̈ⲗⲁⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ̅ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓⲕⲉϩⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲉⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ.
22 Therefore other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.
ⲕ̅ⲃ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲉⲩⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ. ⲧⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ.
23 If therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won’t they say that you are crazy?
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ϭⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ⲉⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲱⲧ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛ̅ϭⲓϩⲉⲛϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ. ⲏ̅ ϩ(ⲉ)ⲛⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ. ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲁϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲗⲟⲃⲉ.
24 But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ. ⲏ̅ ⲟⲩϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ. ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲡⲓⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ. ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲁⲛⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ.
25 And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed. So he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed.
ⲕ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲉⲑⲏⲡ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϩⲏⲧ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲉⲓϩⲉ ϥⲛⲁⲡⲁϩⲧϥ̅ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡⲉϥϩⲟ ⲛϥ̅ⲟⲩⲱϣⲧ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲟⲛⲧⲱⲥ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ̅.
26 What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, or has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.
ⲕ̅ⲋ̅ⲟⲩ ϭⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛ̅ϣⲁⲛⲥⲱⲟⲩϩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲟⲩⲁ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲯⲁⲗⲙⲟⲥ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲥⲃⲱ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϭⲱⲗⲡ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁϥ ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲉⲣⲙⲏⲛⲓⲁ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲕⲱⲧ.
27 If any man speaks in another language, let there be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.
ⲕ̅ⲍ̅ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲛⲁϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ϣⲁⲥⲛⲁⲩ. ⲏ̅ ⲡⲉϩⲟⲩⲟ ϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ. ⲛ̅ⲥⲉϫⲓⲟⲩϣⲏⲙ ⲉⲟⲩⲁ. ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲃⲟⲗⲟⲩ.
28 But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.
ⲕ̅ⲏ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛ̅ⲣⲉϥⲃⲱⲗ. ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲕⲁⲣⲱϥ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ. ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲙ̅ⲙⲁϥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ.
29 Let two or three of the prophets speak, and let the others discern.
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲥⲛⲁⲩ ⲏ̅ ϣⲟⲙⲛ̅ⲧ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲡⲕⲉⲥⲉⲉⲡⲉ ⲇⲓⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ.
30 But if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent.

31 For you all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be exhorted.
ⲗ̅ⲁ̅ⲟⲩⲛ̅ϭⲟⲙ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲛ̅ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ̅ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲟⲩⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲩⲉⲥⲃⲟ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛ̅ⲥⲉⲥⲉⲡⲥⲱⲡⲟⲩ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
32 The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets,
ⲗ̅ⲃ̅ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲉⲡ̅ⲛ̅ⲁ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ.
33 for God is not a God of confusion but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the saints.

34 Let the wives be quiet in the assemblies, for it has not been permitted for them to be talking except in submission, as the law also says,
ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲉϩⲓⲟⲙⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩⲕⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ϩⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ. ⲛⲥ̅ⲧⲟ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲉϣⲁϫⲉ. ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩϩⲩⲡⲟⲧⲁⲥⲥⲉ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲣⲉⲡⲕⲉⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲱ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲥ.
35 if they desire to learn anything. “Let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a wife to be talking in the assembly.”

36 What!? Was it from you that the word of God went out? Or did it come to you alone?

37 If any man thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.

39 Therefore, brothers, desire earnestly to prophesy, and don’t forbid speaking with other languages.
