1 Corinthians 14
1 Follow after love, and earnestly desire spiritual things, and especially that you may prophesy.
ⲁ̅ⲡⲱⲧ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲕⲱϩ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲉ ⲡⲛⲁⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏ ⲧⲉⲩⲉ
2 For the one who speaks in another language speaks not to people, but to God; for no one understands; but in the Spirit he speaks mysteries.
ⲃ̅ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲙⲛ ⲡⲛⲟⲩⲧⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲛⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ
3 But he who prophesies speaks to people for their encouragement, strengthening, and comfort.
ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ ⲙⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲡⲥ ⲙⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲗⲥⲗ
4 He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.
ⲇ̅ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥⲕⲱⲧ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ
5 Now I would like you all to speak in tongues, but even more that you would prophesy, and he is greater who prophesies than he who speaks with other languages, unless he interprets, that the church may be built up.
ⲉ̅ϯⲟⲩⲱϣ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲧⲣⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲛϩⲟⲩⲟ ⲇⲉ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏ ⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲛⲁⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ ϩⲓⲃⲟⲗ ⲉϣϫⲉ ⲛϥⲛⲁⲃⲱⲗ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϫⲓ ⲛⲟⲩⲕⲱⲧ
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 ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ϣⲁⲣⲱⲧⲛ ⲉⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉⲓⲛⲁϯϩⲏⲩ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ ⲛⲟⲩ ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲧⲙϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲏⲧⲛ ⲏ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩϭⲱⲗⲡ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲏ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲏ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ ⲏ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲃⲱ
7 Even things without life, giving a voice, whether pipe or harp, if they did not give a distinction in the sounds, how would it be known what is piped or harped?
ⲍ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲣⲱ ⲛⲁⲯⲩⲭⲟⲛ ⲉⲩϯ ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲥⲙⲏ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲏⲃⲉ ⲛϫⲱ ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲕⲓⲑⲁⲣⲁ ⲉⲩϣⲁⲛⲧⲙϯ ⲛⲟⲩⲡⲱⲣϫ ⲛⲛⲉⲩϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡϫⲱ ⲉⲧⲟⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲏ ⲡⲉⲧⲟⲩⲕⲓⲑⲁⲣⲓⲍⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ
8 For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
ⲏ̅ⲕⲁⲓⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲁⲗⲡⲓⲅⲝ ϯⲛⲟⲩϩⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲥⲃⲧⲱⲧϥ 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.
ⲑ̅ⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ϩⲱⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲁⲛⲧⲙϯ ⲛⲟⲩϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲩⲛⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉⲡⲁⲏⲣ
10 There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none is without meaning.
ⲓ̅ⲟⲩⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲡⲥ ⲙⲙⲓⲛⲉ ⲛⲥⲙⲏ ϩⲙ ⲡⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲛ ⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲉⲙⲛⲧϥ ⲥⲙⲏ
11 If then I do not know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛⲧⲙⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲧϭⲟⲙ ⲛⲧⲉⲥⲙⲏ ϯⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲙⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲓ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲩⲃⲁⲣⲃⲁⲣⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ⲛⲙⲙⲁⲓ
12 So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual things, seek that you may abound to the building up of the church.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ⲧⲁⲓ ϩⲱⲧ ⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϩⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲓ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲣⲉϥⲕⲱϩ ⲉⲛⲉ ⲡⲛⲁⲧⲓⲕⲟⲛ ⲡⲣⲟⲥⲡⲕⲱⲧ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϣⲓⲛⲉ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲉⲣϩⲟⲩⲟ
13 Therefore let him who speaks in another language pray that he may interpret.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲉⲧⲃⲉ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥϣⲗⲏⲗ ϫⲉⲕⲁⲥ ⲉϥⲉⲃⲱⲗ
14 For if I pray in another language, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲉⲓϣⲁⲛϣⲗⲏⲗ ϩⲛ ⲟⲩⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲡⲁⲡⲛⲁ ⲡⲉⲧϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ⲇⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲧⲕⲁⲣⲡⲟⲥ ⲡⲉ
15 What is it then? 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 ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ ϯⲛⲁϣⲗⲏⲗ ⲟⲛ ϩⲙ ⲡⲁⲕⲉϩⲏⲧ ϯⲛⲁⲯⲁⲗⲗⲉⲓ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ ϯⲛⲁⲯⲁⲗⲗⲉⲓ ⲟⲛ ϩⲙ ⲡⲁⲕⲉϩⲏⲧ
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 does not know what you say?
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲉⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⲉⲕϣⲁⲛⲥⲙⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ ⲡⲉⲧϫⲱⲕ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲙⲡϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲁϣ ⲛϩⲉ ϥⲛⲁϫⲱ ⲙⲡϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ⲉϫⲙ ⲡⲉⲕϣⲡϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲅⲁⲣ ϫⲉ ⲉⲕϫⲉ ⲟⲩ ⲛϥⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲁⲛ
17 For you truly give thanks well, but the other person is not built up.
ⲓ̅ⲍ̅ⲛⲧⲟⲕ ⲙⲉⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲕⲁⲗⲱⲥ ⲕϣⲡϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲡⲕⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲕⲱⲧ ⲁⲛ
18 I thank God I speak in tongues more than you all.

19 However in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ϯⲟⲩⲉϣ ϯⲟⲩ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ⲉϫⲟⲟⲩ ϩⲙ ⲡⲁϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓⲉⲕⲁⲑⲏⲅⲉⲓ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲉ ⲟⲩⲧⲃⲁ ⲛϣⲁϫⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲁⲥⲡⲉ
20 Brothers, do not be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.
ⲕ̅ⲛⲉⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲙⲡⲣⲣⲕⲟⲩⲓ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲁⲣⲓⲕⲟⲩⲓ ϩⲛ ⲧⲕⲁⲕⲓⲁ ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲛⲣⲧⲉⲗⲓⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲛϩⲏⲧ
21 In the law it is written, "By people of strange tongues and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people; but even then they will not listen to me," says the Lord.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅ϥⲥⲏϩ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲙ ⲡⲛⲟⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲙⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲕⲉⲥⲡⲟⲧⲟⲩ ϯⲛⲁϣⲁϫⲉ ⲙⲛ ⲡⲓⲗⲁⲧⲟⲥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲛⲥⲉⲛⲁⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲣⲟⲓ ⲛⲧⲉⲉⲓⲕⲉϩⲉ ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ
22 Therefore tongues 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 ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲛⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲧⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲛⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ
23 If therefore the whole church is assembled together and all speak in tongues, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won't they say that you are crazy?
ⲕ̅ⲅ̅ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ϭⲉ ⲉⲣϣⲁⲛ ⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ ⲉⲓ ⲉⲩⲙⲁ ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⲛⲥⲉϣⲁϫⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ ⲛⲥⲉⲉⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϭⲓ ϩⲉⲛϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲏ ϩⲉⲛⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲩⲛⲁϫⲟⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲛⲗⲟⲃⲉ
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 ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲓ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲏ ⲟⲩϩⲓⲇⲓⲱⲧⲏⲥ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϫⲡⲓⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲁⲛⲁⲕⲣⲓⲛⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ 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.

26 What is it then, brothers? When you come together, each one has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has another language, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to build each other up.

27 If anyone speaks in another language, let it be two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let one interpret.

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

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

30 But if a revelation is made to another sitting by, let the first keep silent.

31 For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged.

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

33 for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,

34 let the women keep silent in the churches, for it has not been permitted for them to speak; but let them be in subjection, as the Law also says.

35 If they desire to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a woman to chatter in the church.

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

37 If anyone 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.
