I Corinthians 14:39

First Corinthians 14 addresses the use of spiritual gifts in worship, urging the church to pursue love and to desire prophecy above tongues, since one who speaks in a tongue speaks mysteries to God that no one understands, while prophecy edifies, exhorts, and comforts the church. Paul instructs that tongues are a sign for unbelievers and prophecy for believers, that an interpreter must accompany tongues or the speaker keep silent in church, and that God is not a God of confusion but of peace. The chapter closes by regulating the orderly exercise of these gifts-women keeping silent in the churches, weighing prophecies carefully-and with the rule that all things be done decently and in order.
