Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Earnestly pursue love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.
1你们要追求爱,也要切慕属灵的 恩赐 ,其中更要羡慕的,是作先知讲道。
2For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.
2那说方言的,原不是对人说,乃是对 神说,因为没有人听出来。然而,他在心灵里却是讲说各样的奥秘。
3But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement, and comfort.
3但作先知讲道的,是对人说,要造就、安慰、劝勉人。
4The one who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.
4说方言的,是造就自己;作先知讲道的,乃是造就教会。
5I wish that all of you could speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets so that the church may be edified.
5我愿意你们都说方言,更愿意你们作先知讲道;因为说方言的,若不翻出来,使教会被造就,那作先知讲道的,就比他强了。
6Now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I benefit you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching?
6弟兄们,我到你们那里去,若只说方言,不用启示,或知识,或预言,或教训,给你们讲解,我与你们有什么益处呢?
7Even in the case of lifeless instruments, such as the flute or harp, how will anyone recognize the tune they are playing unless the notes are distinct?
7就是那有声无气的物,或箫,或琴,若发出来的声音没有分别,怎能知道所吹所弹的是什么呢?
8Again, if the trumpet sounds a muffled call, who will prepare for battle?
8若吹无定的号声,谁能预备打仗呢?
9So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.
9你们也是如此。舌头若不说容易明白的话,怎能知道所说的是什么呢?这就是向空说话了。
10Assuredly, there are many different languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
10世上的声音,或者甚多,却没有一样是无意思的。
11If, then, I do not know the meaning of someone’s language, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and he is a foreigner to me.
11我若不明白那声音的意思,这说话的人必以我为化外之人,我也以他为化外之人。
12It is the same with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, strive to excel in gifts that build up the church.
12你们也是如此,既是切慕属灵的 恩赐 ,就当求多得造就教会的恩赐。
13Therefore, the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.
13所以那说方言的,就当求着能翻出来。
14For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.
14我若用方言祷告,是我的灵祷告,但我的悟性没有果效。
15What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind.
15这却怎么样呢?我要用灵祷告,也要用悟性祷告;我要用灵歌唱,也要用悟性歌唱。
16Otherwise, if you speak a blessing in spirit, how can someone who is uninstructed say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?
16不然,你用灵祝谢,那在座不通方言的人,既然不明白你的话,怎能在你感谢的时候说「阿们」呢?
17You may be giving thanks well enough, but the other one is not edified.
17你感谢的固然是好,无奈不能造就别人。
18I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.
18我感谢 神,我说方言比你们众人还多。
19But in the church, I would rather speak five coherent words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.
19但在教会中,宁可用悟性说五句教导人的话,强如说万句方言。
20Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.
20弟兄们,在心志上不要作小孩子。然而,在恶事上要作婴孩,在心志上总要作大人。
21It is written in the Law: “By strange tongues and foreign lips I will speak to this people, but even then they will not listen to Me, says the Lord.”
21律法上记着: 主说:我要用外邦人的舌头 和外邦人的嘴唇向这百姓说话; 虽然如此, 他们还是不听从我。
22Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
22这样看来,说方言不是为信的人作证据,乃是为不信的人;作先知讲道不是为不信的人 作证据 ,乃是为信的人。
23So if the whole church comes together and everyone speaks in tongues, and some who are uninstructed or some unbelievers come in, will they not say that you are out of your minds?
23所以,全教会聚在一处的时候,若都说方言,偶然有不通方言的,或是不信的人进来,岂不说你们癫狂了吗?
24But if an unbeliever or uninstructed person comes in while everyone is prophesying, he will be convicted and called to account by all,
24若都作先知讲道,偶然有不信的,或是不通方言的人进来,就被众人劝醒,被众人审明,
25and the secrets of his heart will be made known. So he will fall facedown and worship God, proclaiming, “God is truly among you!”
25他心里的隐情显露出来,就必将脸伏地,敬拜 神,说:「 神真是在你们中间了。」
26What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a psalm or a teaching, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. All of these must be done to build up the church.
26弟兄们,这却怎么样呢?你们聚会的时候,各人或有诗歌,或有教训,或有启示,或有方言,或有翻出来的话,凡事都当造就人。
27If anyone speaks in a tongue, two, or at most three, should speak in turn, and someone must interpret.
27若有说方言的,只好两个人,至多三个人,且要轮流着说,也要一个人翻出来。
28But if there is no interpreter, he should remain silent in the church and speak only to himself and God.
28若没有人翻,就当在会中闭口,只对自己和 神说就是了。
29Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.
29至于作先知讲道的,只好两个人或是三个人,其余的就当 慎思 明辨。
30And if a revelation comes to someone who is seated, the first speaker should stop.
30若旁边坐着的得了启示,那先说话的就当闭口不言。
31For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged.
31因为你们都可以一个一个地作先知讲道,叫众人学道理,叫众人得劝勉。
32The spirits of prophets are subject to prophets.
32先知的灵原是顺服先知的;
33For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace—as in all the churches of the saints.
33因为 神不是叫人混乱,乃是叫人安静。
34Women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says.
34妇女在会中要闭口不言,像在圣徒的众教会一样,因为不准她们说话。她们总要顺服,正如律法所说的。
35If they wish to inquire about something, they are to ask their own husbands at home; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church.
35她们若要学什么,可以在家里问自己的丈夫,因为妇女在会中说话原是可耻的。
36Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only ones it has reached?
36神的道理岂是从你们出来吗?岂是单临到你们吗?
37If anyone considers himself a prophet or spiritual person, let him acknowledge that what I am writing you is the Lord’s command.
37若有人以为自己是先知,或是属灵的,就该知道,我所写给你们的是主的命令。
38But if anyone ignores this, he himself will be ignored.
38若有不知道的,就由他不知道吧!
39So, my brothers, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
39所以我弟兄们,你们要切慕作先知讲道,也不要禁止说方言。
40But everything must be done in a proper and orderly manner.
40凡事都要规规矩矩地按着次序行。
