25 E assim os segredos de seu coração ficam manifestos, e assim, lançando-se sobre [seu] rosto, adorará a Deus, reconhecendo publicamente que Deus está entre vós.

26 Então o que há, irmãos? Quando vos reunis, tem cada um de vós salmo, tem doutrina, tem língua [estranha] , tem revelação, tem interpretação, tudo se faça para edificação.

27 E se alguém falar em língua [estranha] , [sejam] dois, ou no máximo três, e alternando-se, e um que interprete.

29 E falem dois ou três profetas, e os outros julguem.
