instructor of the foolish, a teacher of children, having in the law the
embodiment of knowledge and truth— 21you then who teach others, do you not
teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal? 22You who
say that one must not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor
idols, do you rob temples? 23You who boast in the law dishonor God by
breaking the law. 24For, as it is written, “The name of God is

21 Therefore the one teaching
another, do you not teach yourself? The one preaching not to steal, do
you steal?
22 The the one saying not to
commit adultery, do you commit adultery? The one detesting the idols, do
you rob temples?
23 You who boast in Law, do you dishonor
God through transgression of the Law?

yourself? You who preach that a man shouldn’t steal, do you steal?
22 You who say a man shouldn’t commit adultery.
Do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples?

shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field. 17Cursed
shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. 18Cursed shall be the fruit of your womb and
the fruit of your ground, the increase of your herds and the young of your
flock. 19Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go
out. 20“The Lord will send on you curses, confusion, and frustration in all that
you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and perish quickly on account of
the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken me. 21The Lord will make the pestilence stick to
you until he has consumed you off the land that you are entering to take
possession of it. 22The Lord will strike you with wasting disease and
with fever, inflammation and fiery heat, and with drought and with blight and
with mildew. They shall pursue you until you perish. 23And the heavens over your head shall be
bronze, and the earth under you shall be iron. 24The Lord will make the rain of your land
powder. From heaven dust shall come down on you until you are destroyed. 25“The
Lord will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You shall go out one
way against them and flee seven ways before them. And you shall be a horror to
all the kingdoms of the earth. 26And your dead body shall be food for all
birds of the air and for the beasts of the earth, and there shall be no one to
frighten them away. 27The Lord will strike you with the boils of Egypt,
and with tumors and scabs and itch, of which you cannot be healed. 28The
Lord will strike you with madness and blindness and confusion of mind, 29and you
shall grope at noonday, as the blind grope in darkness, and you shall not
prosper in your ways. And you shall be only oppressed and robbed continually,
and there shall be no one to help you. 30You shall betroth a wife, but another man
shall ravish her. You shall build a house, but you shall not dwell in it. You
shall plant a vineyard, but you shall not enjoy its fruit.
31Your ox shall be
slaughtered before your eyes, but you shall not eat any of it. Your donkey
shall be seized before your face, but shall not be restored to you. Your sheep

sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, while your eyes look

nation that you have not known shall eat up the fruit of your ground and of all
your labors, and you shall be only oppressed and crushed continually, 34so that
you are driven mad by the sights that your eyes see. 35The Lord will strike you on the knees and
on the legs with grievous boils of which you cannot be healed, from the sole of
your foot to the crown of your head. 36“The Lord will bring you and your king
whom you set over you to a nation that neither you nor your fathers have known.
And there you shall serve other gods of wood and stone. 37And you shall become a horror, a proverb,

them. 40You shall have olive trees throughout all your territory, but you shall not
anoint yourself with the oil, for your olives shall drop off. 41You

and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower. 44He
shall lend to you, and you shall not lend to him. He shall be the head, and you
shall be the tail. 45“All these curses shall come upon you and pursue
you and overtake you till you are destroyed, because you did not obey the voice
of the Lord your God, to keep his commandments and his statutes that he
commanded you. 46They shall be a sign and a wonder against you and
your offspring forever. 47Because you did not serve the Lord your God with
joyfulness and gladness of heart, because of the abundance of all things, 48therefore
you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger and
thirst, in nakedness, and lacking everything. And he will put a yoke of iron on
your neck until he has destroyed you. 49The Lord will bring a nation against you
from far away, from the end of the earth, swooping down like the eagle, a
nation whose language you do not understand, 50a hard-faced nation who shall not respect
the old or show mercy to the young. 51It shall eat the offspring of your cattle
and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed; it also shall not leave
you grain, wine, or oil, the increase of your herds or the young of your flock,
until they have caused you to perish. 52“They shall besiege you in all your towns,
until your high and fortified walls, in which you trusted, come down throughout
all your land. And they shall besiege you in all your towns throughout all your
land, which the Lord your God has given you. 53And you shall eat the fruit of your womb,
the flesh of your sons and daughters, whom the Lord your God has given you, in
the siege and in the distress with which your enemies shall distress you. 54The man
who is the most tender and refined among you will begrudge food to his brother,
to the wife he embraces, and to the last of the children whom he has left, 55so that
he will not give to any of them any of the flesh of his children whom he is
eating, because he has nothing else left, in the siege and in the distress with
which your enemy shall distress you in all your towns. 56The most tender and refined woman among
you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because
she is so delicate and tender, will begrudge to the husband she embraces, to
her son and to her daughter, 57her afterbirth that comes out from between
her feet and her children whom she bears, because lacking everything she will
eat them secretly, in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall
distress you in your towns. 58“If you are not careful to do all the
words of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this
glorious and awesome name, the Lord your God, 59then the Lord will bring on you and your
offspring extraordinary afflictions, afflictions severe and lasting, and
sicknesses grievous and lasting. 60And he will bring upon you again all the
diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. 61Every
sickness also and every affliction that is not recorded in the book of this
law, the Lord will bring upon you, until you are destroyed. 62Whereas
you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, you shall be left few in number,
because you did not obey the voice of the Lord your God. 63And as the Lord took delight in doing you
good and multiplying you, so the Lord will take delight in bringing ruin upon
you and destroying you. And you shall be plucked off the land that you are
entering to take possession of it. 64“And the Lord will scatter you among all
peoples, from one end of the earth to the other, and there you shall serve
other gods of wood and stone, which neither you nor your fathers have known. 65And
among these nations you shall find no respite, and there shall be no resting
place for the sole of your foot, but the Lord will give you there a trembling
heart and failing eyes and a languishing soul. 66Your life shall hang in doubt before you.
Night and day you shall be in dread and have no assurance of your life. 67In the
morning you shall say, ‘If only it were evening!’ and at evening you shall say,
‘If only it were morning!’ because of the dread that your heart shall feel, and
the sights that your eyes shall see. 68And the Lord will bring you back in ships
to Egypt, a journey that I promised that you should never make again; and there
you shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves,
but there will be no buyer.”

taken away from be- fore you, and it will not be given back. Your sheep shall
be given to your enemies, and you shall not have to you a
deliverer.
32 Your sons and your daughters shall
be given to another people; and your eyes shall look and fail for them all
the day. And no power will be in your hand.
33 The fruit of your ground, and
all your labor, shall be eaten up by a nation which you do not know. And you
shall always be oppressed and crushed.
34 And you shall be maddened
because of that which you shall see with the sight of your eyes.
35 Jehovah shall strike you with an
evil ulcer on the knees, and on the legs, of which you cannot be healed from
the sole of your foot even to your crown.
36 Jehovah shall cause you and your
king whom you shall raise up over you, to go to a nation which you have not
known, you and your fathers. And you shall serve other gods there, wood and
stone.

it.
40 You shall have olive trees in

fall off.

daughters, and they shall not be with you; for they shall go into captivity.

did not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God, to keep His commandments and
His statutes which He commanded you.
46 And they shall be on you for a
sign and for a wonder, and on your seed forever,
47 because you did not serve
Jehovah your God with joyfulness and with gladness of heart for the abundance

against you from afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation
whose tongue you will not understand,

will not regard the person of the aged, nor show favor to the young.
51 And he shall eat the fruit of
your livestock, and the fruit of your land, until you are destroyed. He shall
not leave to you grain, new wine, and oil, increase of your oxen, or young ones
of your flock, until he has destroyed you.
52 And it will be distress to you
against all your gates, until your high and fortified walls in which you are
trusting come down, in all your land; and it will be distress to you in all
your gates, in all your land which Jehovah your God has given to you.
53 And you shall eat the fruit of
your body, the flesh of your sons and your daughters whom Jehovah your God has
given to you, in the siege, and in the anguish with which your enemies shall
distress you.
54 The man who is tender and
very delicate among you, his eye shall be evil against his brother, and against
the wife of his bosom, and against the remnant of his sons which he leaves,
55 so that he will not give to any
of them of the flesh of his sons that he shall eat, because he has nothing left
to him in the siege, and in the anguish with which your enemies shall distress
you in all your gates.
56 The soft and delicate woman
among you, who would not have ventured to set the sole of her foot on the
ground for delicateness and tenderness, her eye shall be evil against the
husband of her bosom, and against her son, and against her daughter;
57 and against her fetus which
comes out from between her feet, even against her sons whom she shall bear. For
she shall eat them in secret, for the lack of everything in the siege and in
the anguish with which the enemy shall distress you within your gates.
58 If you will not take heed to do
all the words of this Law written in this book, to fear this glorious and
fearful Name, Jehovah your God,
59 and Jehovah will make your
plagues remarkable, and the plagues of your children shall be great and
persistent plagues with evil and long-lasting sicknesses.
60 He shall also bring on you all
the diseases of Egypt, of which you were afraid; and they shall cling to you.
61 Also every sickness and every
plague which is not written in the book of this Law, Jehovah shall cause
them to come on you until you are destroyed.
62 And you shall be left few in
number, whereas you were as the stars of the heavens for multitude, because you
would not listen to the voice of Jehovah your God.
63 And it shall be, as Jehovah
exulted over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Jehovah shall exult
over you to destroy you, and to lay you waste. And you shall be plucked from
the land you are going to possess.
64 And Jehovah shall scatter you
among all people, from one end of the earth even to the other,
and you shall serve other gods there, wood and stone, which you have not known,
and not your fathers.
65 And among these nations you
shall not find ease, and the sole of your foot shall not have rest. But Jehovah
shall give you there a trembling heart and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind.
66 And your life shall hang
in doubt before you, and you shall fear day and night, and shall have no
assurance of your life.
67 In the morning you shall say, Oh
that it were evening! And in the evening you shall say, Oh that it were
morning! For the fear of your heart with which you fear, and for the sight of
your eyes which you shall see.
68 And Jehovah shall bring you into
Egypt again with ships, by the way of which I said to you, You shall no more
see it again. And you shall be sold to your enemies there, for male slaves and
slave-girls; and there shall not be a buyer.
Deuteronomy 28:15–68 (NASB95) Back
15“But it shall come about, if you do not
obey the Lord your God, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes
with which I charge you today, that all these curses will come upon you and
overtake you: 16“Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall
you be in the country. 17“Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading
bowl. 18“Cursed shall be the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground,
the increase of your herd and the young of your flock. 19“Cursed shall you be when you come in, and
cursed shall you be when you go out. 20“The Lord will send upon you curses,
confusion, and rebuke, in all you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and
until you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you
have forsaken Me. 21“The Lord will make the pestilence cling to you
until He has consumed you from the land where you are entering to possess it. 22“The
Lord will smite you with consumption and with fever and with inflammation and
with fiery heat and with the sword and with blight and with mildew, and they
will pursue you until you perish. 23“The heaven which is over your head shall
be bronze, and the earth which is under you, iron. 24“The Lord will make the rain of your land
powder and dust; from heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed. 25“The
Lord shall cause you to be defeated before your enemies; you will go out one
way against them, but you will flee seven ways before them, and you will be an
example of terror to all the kingdoms of the earth. 26“Your carcasses will be food to all birds
of the sky and to the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten
them away. 27“The Lord will smite you with the boils of Egypt
and with tumors and with the scab and with the itch, from which you cannot be
healed. 28“The Lord will smite you with madness and with
blindness and with bewilderment of heart; 29and you will grope at noon, as the blind
man gropes in darkness, and you will not prosper in your ways; but you shall
only be oppressed and robbed continually, with none to save you. 30“You
shall betroth a wife, but another man will violate her; you shall build a
house, but you will not live in it; you shall plant a vineyard, but you will
not use its fruit. 31“Your ox shall be slaughtered before your eyes,
but you will not eat of it; your donkey shall be torn away from you, and will
not be restored to you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you will
have none to save you. 32“Your sons and your daughters shall be given to
another people, while your eyes look on and yearn for them continually; but
there will be nothing you can do. 33“A people whom you do not know shall eat
up the produce of your ground and all your labors, and you will never be
anything but oppressed and crushed continually. 34“You shall be driven mad by the sight of
what you see. 35“The Lord will strike you on the knees and legs
with sore boils, from which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to
the crown of your head. 36“The Lord will bring you and your king, whom you
set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and
there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone. 37“You shall become a horror, a proverb, and
a taunt among all the people where the Lord drives you. 38“You shall bring out much seed to the
field but you will gather in little, for the locust will consume it. 39“You
shall plant and cultivate vineyards, but you will neither drink of the wine nor
gather the grapes, for the worm will devour them. 40“You shall have olive trees throughout
your territory but you will not anoint yourself with the oil, for your olives
will drop off. 41“You shall have sons and daughters but they will
not be yours, for they will go into captivity. 42“The cricket shall possess all your trees
and the produce of your ground. 43“The alien who is among you shall rise
above you higher and higher, but you will go down lower and lower. 44“He
shall lend to you, but you will not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you
will be the tail. 45“So all these curses shall come on you and pursue
you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you would not obey the
Lord your God by keeping His commandments and His statutes which He commanded
you. 46“They shall become a sign and a wonder on you and your descendants forever. 47“Because
you did not serve the Lord your God with joy and a glad heart, for the
abundance of all things; 48therefore you shall serve your enemies
whom the Lord will send against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in
the lack of all things; and He will put an iron yoke on your neck until He has
destroyed you. 49“The Lord will bring a nation against you from
afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle swoops down, a nation whose
language you shall not understand, 50a nation of fierce countenance who will
have no respect for the old, nor show favor to the young. 51“Moreover, it shall eat the offspring of
your herd and the produce of your ground until you are destroyed, who also
leaves you no grain, new wine, or oil, nor the increase of your herd or the young
of your flock until they have caused you to perish. 52“It shall besiege you in all your towns
until your high and fortified walls in which you trusted come down throughout
your land, and it shall besiege you in all your towns throughout your land which
the Lord your God has given you. 53“Then you shall eat the offspring of your
own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom the Lord your God
has given you, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy will
oppress you. 54“The man who is refined and very delicate among
you shall be hostile toward his brother and toward the wife he cherishes and
toward the rest of his children who remain, 55so that he will not give even one of them
any of the flesh of his children which he will eat, since he has nothing else
left, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy will oppress you in
all your towns. 56“The refined and delicate woman among you, who
would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness
and refinement, shall be hostile toward the husband she cherishes and toward
her son and daughter, 57and toward her afterbirth which issues from
between her legs and toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them
secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the distress by which
your enemy will oppress you in your towns. 58“If you are not careful to observe all the
words of this law which are written in this book, to fear this honored and
awesome name, the Lord your God, 59then the Lord will bring extraordinary
plagues on you and your descendants, even severe and lasting plagues, and
miserable and chronic sicknesses. 60“He will bring back on you all the
diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid, and they will cling to you. 61“Also
every sickness and every plague which, not written in the book of this law, the
Lord will bring on you until you are destroyed. 62“Then you shall be left few in number,
whereas you were as numerous as the stars of heaven, because you did not obey
the Lord your God. 63“It shall come about that as the Lord delighted
over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so the Lord will delight over you to
make you perish and destroy you; and you will be torn from the land where you
are entering to possess it. 64“Moreover, the Lord will scatter you among
all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there
you shall serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your fathers have not
known. 65“Among those nations you shall find no rest, and there will be no resting
place for the sole of your foot; but there the Lord will give you a trembling
heart, failing of eyes, and despair of soul. 66“So your life shall hang in doubt before
you; and you will be in dread night and day, and shall have no assurance of
your life. 67“In the morning you shall say, ‘Would that it were
evening!’ And at evening you shall say, ‘Would that it were morning!’ because
of the dread of your heart which you dread, and for the sight of your eyes
which you will see. 68“The Lord will bring you back to Egypt in ships,
by the way about which I spoke to you, ‘You will never see it again!’ And there
you will offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves,
but there will be no buyer.”
Deuteronomy 28:15-68 (WEB) Back
15 But it shall come to pass, if you will
not listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to observe to do all his commandments
and his statutes which I command you today, that all these curses will come on
you, and overtake you.
16 You will be cursed in the city, and you will
be cursed in the field.
17 Your basket and your kneading trough will be
cursed.
18 The fruit of your body, the fruit of your
ground, the increase of your livestock, and the young of your flock will be
cursed.
19 You will be cursed when you come in, and you
will be cursed when you go out.
20 Yahweh will send on you cursing, confusion,
and rebuke, in all that you put your hand to do, until you are destroyed, and
until you perish quickly; because of the evil of your doings, by which you have
forsaken me.
21 Yahweh will make the pestilence cling to
you, until he has consumed you from off the land, where you go in to possess
it.
22 Yahweh will strike you with consumption,
with fever, with inflammation, with fiery heat, with the sword, with blight,
and with mildew. They will pursue you until you perish.
23 Your sky that is over your head will be
bronze, and the earth that is under you will be iron.
24 Yahweh will make the rain of your land
powder and dust. It will come down on you from the sky, until you are
destroyed.
25 Yahweh will cause you to be struck before
your enemies. You will go out one way against them, and will flee seven ways
before them. You will be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the
earth.
26 Your dead body will be food to all birds of
the sky, and to the animals of the earth; and there will be no one to frighten
them away.
27 Yahweh will strike you with the boils of
Egypt, with the tumors, with the scurvy, and with the itch, of which you can
not be healed.
28 Yahweh will strike you with madness, with
blindness, and with astonishment of heart.
29 You will grope at noonday, as the blind
gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways. You will only be
oppressed and robbed always, and there will be no one to save you.
30 You will betroth a wife, and another man
shall lie with her. You will build a house, and you won’t dwell in it. You will
plant a vineyard, and not use its fruit.
31 Your ox will be slain before your eyes, and
you will not eat any of it. Your donkey will be violently taken away from
before your face, and will not be restored to you. Your sheep will be given to
your enemies, and you will have no one to save you.
32 Your sons and your daughters will be given
to another people. Your eyes will look, and fail with longing for them all day
long. There will be no power in your hand.
33 A nation which you don’t know will eat the
fruit of your ground and all of your work. You will only be oppressed and
crushed always;
34 so that the sights that you see with your
eyes will drive you mad.
35 Yahweh will strike you in the knees and in
the legs with a sore boil, of which you can not be healed, from the sole of
your foot to the crown of your head.
36 Yahweh will bring you, and your king whom
you will set over yourselves, to a nation that you have not known, you nor your
fathers. There you will serve other gods of wood and stone.
37 You will become an astonishment, a proverb,
and a byword among all the peoples where Yahweh will lead you away.
38 You will carry much seed out into the field,
and will gather little in; for the locust will consume it.
39 You will plant vineyards and dress them, but
you will neither drink of the wine, nor harvest, because worms will eat them.
40 You will have olive trees throughout all
your borders, but you won’t anoint yourself with the oil; for your olives will
drop off.
41 You will father sons and daughters, but they
will not be yours; for they will go into captivity.
42 Locusts will consume all of your trees and
the fruit of your ground.
43 The foreigner who is among you will mount up
above you higher and higher, and you will come down lower and lower.
44 He will lend to you, and you won’t lend to him.
He will be the head, and you will be the tail.
45 All these curses will come on you, and will
pursue you, and overtake you, until you are destroyed; because you didn’t
listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, to keep his commandments and his statutes
which he commanded you.
46 They will be for a sign and for a wonder to
you and to your offspring forever.
47 Because you didn’t serve Yahweh your God
with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, by reason of the abundance of all
things;
48 therefore you will serve your enemies whom
Yahweh sends against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in lack of
all things. He will put an iron yoke on your neck, until he has destroyed you.
49 Yahweh will bring a nation against you from
far, from the end of the earth, as the eagle flies; a nation whose language you
will not understand;
50 a nation of fierce facial expressions, that
doesn’t respect the elderly, nor show favor to the young,
51 and they will eat the fruit of your
livestock, and the fruit of your ground, until you are destroyed. They also
won’t leave you grain, new wine, or oil, the increase of your livestock, or the
young of your flock, until they have caused you to perish.
52 They will besiege you in all your gates,
until your high and fortified walls come down, in which you trusted, throughout
all your land. They will besiege you in all your gates throughout all your
land, which Yahweh your God has given you.
53 You will eat the fruit of your own body, the
flesh of your sons and of your daughters, whom Yahweh your God has given you,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemies will distress you.
54 The man who is tender among you, and very
delicate, his eye will be evil toward his brother, toward the wife whom he
loves, and toward the remnant of his children whom he has remaining;
55 so that he will not give to any of them of
the flesh of his children whom he will eat, because he has nothing left to him,
in the siege and in the distress with which your enemy will distress you in all
your gates.
56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who
would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness
and tenderness, her eye will be evil toward the husband that she loves, toward
her son, toward her daughter,
57 toward her young one who comes out from
between her feet, and toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them
secretly for lack of all things, in the siege and in the distress with which
your enemy will distress you in your gates.
58 If you will not observe to do all the words
of this law that are written in this book, that you may fear this glorious and
fearful name, YAHWEH YOUR GOD;
59 then Yahweh will make your plagues fearful,
and the plagues of your offspring, even great plagues, and of long duration,
and severe sicknesses, and of long duration.
60 He will bring on you again all the diseases
of Egypt, which you were afraid of; and they will cling to you.
61 Also every sickness and every plague, which
is not written in the book of this law, Yahweh will bring them on you, until
you are destroyed.
62 You will be left few in number, even though
you were as the stars of the sky for multitude; because you didn’t listen to
Yahweh your God’s voice.
63 It will happen that as Yahweh rejoiced over
you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Yahweh will rejoice over you to
cause you to perish, and to destroy you. You will be plucked from the land that
you are going in to possess.
64 Yahweh will scatter you among all peoples,
from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth. There you will serve
other gods, which you have not known, you nor your fathers, even wood and
stone.
65 Among these nations you will find no ease,
and there will be no rest for the sole of your foot; but Yahweh will give you
there a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and pining of soul.
66 Your life will hang in doubt before you. You
will be afraid night and day, and will have no assurance of your life.
67 In the morning you will say, “I wish it were
evening!” and at evening you will say, “I wish it were morning!” for the fear
of your heart which you will fear, and for the sights which your eyes will see.
68 Yahweh will bring you into Egypt again with
ships, by the way of which I told to you that you would never see it again.
There you will sell yourselves to your enemies for male and female slaves, and
nobody will buy you.

Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” 31And he
said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up

before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth. 33In his humiliation justice was denied him.
Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.” 34And the

himself or about someone else?” 35Then Philip opened his mouth, and

was taken away. And who will recount His generation? For His life is taken away

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?
9So with yourselves, if with your tongue
you utter speech that is not intelligible, how will anyone know what is said?
For you will be speaking into the air.
11but if I do not know the meaning of the
language, I will be a foreigner to the speaker and the speaker a foreigner to me. 12So with
yourselves, since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to
excel in building up the church.
15What am I to do? I will pray with my
spirit, but I will pray with my mind also; I will sing praise with my spirit,
but I will sing with my mind also. 16Otherwise, if you give thanks with your
spirit, how can anyone in the position of an outsider say “Amen” to your
thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?
24But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or
outsider enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all,
27If any speak in a tongue, let there be
only two or at most three, and each in turn, and let someone interpret. 28But if
there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church and speak
to himself and to God.

9 So also you, if you do not give
a clear word through the language, how will the thing being said be
known? For you will be speaking into air.
11 If, then, I do not know the
power of the sound, I will be a foreigner to the one speaking, and he
speaking in me a foreigner.
12 So also you, since you are
zealots of spiritual gifts, seek to build up the assembly that you may
abound.
15¶ What then is it? I will pray
with the spirit, and I will also pray with the mind; I will sing with the
spirit, and I will also sing with the mind.
16 Else, if you bless in the
spirit, the one occupying the place of the unlearned, how will he say the amen
at your giving of thanks, since he does not know what you say?
24 But if all prophesy, and some
faithless one or an uninstructed one comes in, he is convicted by
all, he is judged by all.
27 If one speaks in a language, let
it be by two or three at the most, and in turn, also let one
interpret.
28 And if there is no interpreter,
let him be silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to
God.

9So also you, unless you utter by the
tongue speech that is clear, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will
be speaking into the air.
11If then I do not know the meaning of the
language, I will be to the one who speaks a barbarian, and the one who speaks
will be a barbarian to me. 12So also you, since you are zealous of
spiritual gifts, seek to abound for the edification of the church.
15What is the outcome then? I will pray with
the spirit and I will pray with the mind also; I will sing with the spirit and
I will sing with the mind also. 16Otherwise if you bless in the spirit only,
how will the one who fills the place of the ungifted say the “Amen” at your
giving of thanks, since he does not know what you are saying?
24But if all prophesy, and an unbeliever or
an ungifted man enters, he is convicted by all, he is called to account by all;
27If anyone speaks in a tongue, it should be
by two or at the most three, and each in turn, and one must interpret; 28but if
there is no interpreter, he must keep silent in the church; and let him speak

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?
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.
11 If then I don’t 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.
12 So also you, since you are zealous for
spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.
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.
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 doesn’t know what you say?
24 But if all prophesy, and someone unbelieving
or unlearned comes in, he is reproved by all, and he is judged by all.
27 If any man 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 assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God.
