to the congregation of God that is at Corinth, to called men, to holy men who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus with all in every place who call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ--both ours and theirs.

Because of this I sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, just as I teach everywhere in every congregation.

Except, as God has distributed to each man, as the Lord has called each, so let him walk. And so I command in all the congregations.

But if any man appears to be a lover of strife, we have no such custom, nor the congregations of God.

For indeed first, when ye come together in a congregation, I hear divisions are present among you, and I partly believe it.

He who speaks in a tongue builds himself up, but he who prophesies builds up the congregation.

Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but more that ye may prophesy. For greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so that the congregation may receive edification.

If therefore the whole congregation comes together in the same place, and all speak in tongues, and unlearned or unbelieving men come in, will they not say that ye are mad?

Now concerning the collection for the sanctified, as I arranged for the congregations of Galatia, so also do ye.

The congregations of Asia salute you. Aquila and Priscilla salute you much in Lord, with the congregation associated with their house.
