Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Follow after charity, be zealous for spiritual gifts; but rather that you may prophesy.
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 that speaketh in a tongue, speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man heareth. Yet by the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.
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 that prophesieth, speaketh to men unto edification, and exhortation, and comfort.
3但作先知讲道的,是对人说,要造就、安慰、劝勉人。
4He that speaketh in a tongue, edifieth himself: but he that prophesieth, edifieth the church.
4说方言的,是造就自己;作先知讲道的,乃是造就教会。
5And I would have you all to speak with tongues, but rather to prophesy. For greater is he that prophesieth, than he that speaketh with tongues: unless perhaps he interpret, that the church may receive edification.
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。
6But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?
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 things without life that give sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction of sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
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?
8For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
8若吹无定的号声,谁能预备打仗呢?
9So likewise you, except you utter by the tongue plain speech, how shall it be known what is said? For you shall 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。
10There are, for example, so many kinds of tongues in this world; and none is without voice.
10世上的声音,或者甚多,却没有一样是无意思的。
11If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian; and he that speaketh, a barbarian 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。
12So you also, forasmuch as you are zealous of spirits, seek to abound unto the edifying of 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。
13And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him 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 prayeth, but my understanding is without fruit.
14我若用方言祷告,是我的灵祷告,但我的悟性没有果效。
15What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.
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。
16Else if thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that holdeth the place of the unlearned say, Amen, to thy blessing? because he knoweth not what thou sayest.
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?
17For thou indeed givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
17你感谢的固然是好,无奈不能造就别人。
18I thank my God I speak with all your tongues.
18我感谢 神,我说方言比你们众人还多。
19But in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also; 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。
20Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.
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。
21In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; and neither so will they hear me, saith 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。
22Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to believers, but to unbelievers; but prophecies not to unbelievers, but to believers.
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。
23If therefore the whole church come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in unlearned persons or infidels, will they not say that you are mad?
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 all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or an unlearned person, he is convinced of all, he is judged of 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,
25The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.
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。」
26How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.
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 any speak with a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and in course, and let one 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 be no interpreter, let him hold his peace in the church, and speak to himself and to God.
28若没有人翻,就当在会中闭口,只对自己和 神说就是了。
29And let the prophets speak, two or three; and let the rest judge.
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。
30But if any thing be revealed to another sitting, let the first hold his peace.
30若旁边坐着的得了启示,那先说话的就当闭口不言。
31For you may all prophesy one by one; that all may learn, and all may be exhorted:
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。
32And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets.
32先知的灵原是顺服先知的;
33For God is not the God of dissension, but of peace: as also I teach in all the churches of the saints.
33因为 神不是叫人混乱,乃是叫人安静。
34Let women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted them to speak, but to be subject, as also the law saith.
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。
35But if they would learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is a shame 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。
36Or did the word of God come out from you? Or came it only unto you?
36神的道理岂是从你们出来吗?岂是单临到你们吗?
37If any seem to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him know the things that I write to you, that they are the commandments of the Lord.
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 any man know not, he shall not be known.
38若有不知道的,就由他不知道吧!
39Wherefore, brethren, be zealous to prophesy; and forbid not to speak with 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 let all things be done decently, and according to order.
40凡事都要规规矩矩地按着次序行。
