For nowe we see through a glasse darkely: but then shall wee see face to face. Nowe I know in part: but then shall I know euen as I am knowen.

And nowe abideth faith, hope and loue, euen these three: but the chiefest of these is loue.

For hee that speaketh a strange tongue, speaketh not vnto men, but vnto God: for no man heareth him: howbeit in the spirit he speaketh secret things.

But he that prophecieth, speaketh vnto me to edifying, and to exhortation, and to comfort.

He that speaketh strange language, edifieth himselfe: but hee that prophecieth, edifieth the Church.

I would that ye all spake strange languages, but rather that ye prophecied: for greater is hee that prophecieth, then hee that speaketh diuers tongues, except hee expounde it, that the Church may receiue edification.

For if I pray in a strange togue, my spirit prayeth: but mine vnderstading is without fruite.

What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, but I wil pray with the vnderstanding also: I wil sing with the spirite, but I will sing with the vnderstanding also.

For thou verely giuest thankes well, but the other is not edified.

Brethren, be not children in vnderstanding, but as concerning maliciousnes be children, but in vnderstanding be of a ripe age.

Wherefore strange tongues are for a signe, not to them that beleeue, but to them that beleeue not: but prophecying serueth not for them that beleeue not, but for them which beleeue.

But if there be no interpreter, let him keepe silence in the Church, which speaketh languages, and let him speake to himselfe, and to God.

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as we see in all ye Churches of the Saints.

Let your women keepe silence in the Churches: for it is not permitted vnto them to speake: but they ought to be subiect, as also the Lawe sayth.

But by the grace of God, I am that I am: and his grace which is in me, was not in vaine: but I laboured more aboundantly then they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which is with me.

But nowe is Christ risen from the dead, and was made the first fruites of them that slept.

But euery man in his owne order: the first fruites is Christ, afterward, they that are of Christ, at his comming shall rise againe.

But some man will say, Howe are the dead raised vp? and with what body come they foorth?

And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shalbe, but bare corne as it falleth, of wheat, or of some other.
