2 PBM Takka hega ni mapanewi ti silu mawali ti lammana, atta napa newi amai ti rara, aitaka narangawi ti Allah maba atta oka tu malakarangi, takka nipa langina ngera nani nimaka bunni ti ngasu matua. BSB BSB: For 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.
3 PBM Takka, ni tua mama nyuwula napa newi ti tu rara, kapiani ba ogi tipangada, panau, danggu nawalai. BSB BSB: But he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement, and comfort.
4 PBM Tu ni panewi ti silu waina law ma, napa tangasa wisina, takka ni tu mamanyurra pakaddi sangnga nai kalembu tu matua. BSB BSB: The one who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.
5 PBM Yawwa kumanugumi yimmi ngarandukami mapanewi ti silu malusa waliti lamma danggu napa na kaungi sini ba tunisa kalembu tu matua do oani dangngu da pamaudangai. BSB BSB: I 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.
6 PBM Baku olinguwagumi nikka ba hammiri kagaka ti yimmi dangngu kupanewi ti silu ngasu matua, panisa ni letumi, aita kupanewi kaka ti yimmi dangngu ikunggua, nilaksa, ni nyurra, pa ajara? BSB BSB: Now, 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?
7 PBM Dangnguwalika ni ngawu maatta o sangasu, tuddani talali, aitaka dungga mapa lusana panina, palini sama laksa kanai nitu alat pani nimma puni, talali aitaka dunggai?

9 PBM Tukada walini yimmi, mikka waimui lammamu, bai pakadi bau palusagi nipa newi mupaatta lakasa oli, palinni sama lakasagi pani mi papanewi wai? samatuni bau panewi ti ngallu. BSB BSB: So 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.
10 PBM Aiba, danguri ni silu ti pannu tana danggu atta malli sisa pu wali ti yinna maata wolu ruuna. BSB BSB: Assuredly, there are many different languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
11 PBM Ba atta kulakasa kaia ni silu hai, yawa tu paata lakasawa waliti tu mapanewi dangngu yimmi, bai dadi tu pa atta lakasagui. BSB BSB: If, 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.
12 PBM Tukada wali yimmi, dangngu yimmi, bai usaha langsu takka tutunarikarawia walina Allah berusaha pangala kawala mangoniukari tutuni pakadi ni kalembu tu mata. BSB BSB: It is the same with you. Since you are eager to have spiritual gifts, strive to excel in gifts that build up the church.
13 PBM Ni kadai, ni ti masilu waina lamma basambaya dangngu mwali kana yanai nima ngari. BSB BSB: Therefore, the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.
14 PBM Takka, mika baku sambaya ti silu waina lammma, ni ngasu matuangu na sambayai, makka yitta nipa ngadangu amba napa sapanari. BSB BSB: For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.
15 PBM Maba tunisa, panisa nipa patalakungu? Yawa kusabaya ti ngasu wikkigu, dangngu ku sabaya waina pangadangu. BSB BSB: What 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.
16 PBM Yawa kulodu wai ngasugu, palina kaka ni tu ma haina tiana atta mangngu kurnia, da panewi waingi" AMIN" maba bana na narang ngi ni datayamu maba atta na lakasa pungnguja nipa papanewi waimu? BSB BSB: Otherwise, 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?
17 PBM Langngu kai sabaya padasami, takka tu sawawi atta pakadira. BSB BSB: You may be giving thanks well enough, but the other one is not edified.
18 PBM Yawa kusabaya ti Allah, ba yawa kupanewi ti silu lamma risi wali ti yimmi. BSB BSB: I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.
19 PBM Takka, ti kalembu tu matua panewi waina silu lamma panewi dangngu pangdagu yawa kapia baku ajara ku sawawi, wali sakambulurata kata ti silu waina lamma. BSB BSB: But in the church, I would rather speak five coherent words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20 PBM Angua-angua mangumi amba dari lakawamama ti pangadamu dadi ama rawawu tidalu tima atta rassa takka mapa ngada matua! BSB BSB: Brothers, stop thinking like children. In regard to evil be infants, but in your thinking be mature.
21 PBM Sama tuni nipa tuli ti bakka tawat" malini ai tu ma waina silu lewema dangngu niwiwi tu pa ata laksa yawa kupanewi ti tu dia, takka yidda atta rangngi pungngu mawa yawa, panewi nai Muri." Yesaya 28:11-12 BSB BSB: It 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.”
22 PBM Nikadai nisiluwaina lamma tadanai, atta tuamadai tu mapa wai, takka tutuda tu maata Pawai, ni manyura tada kadai, atta tutu tu maata pawai takka tutuda tu mapawai. BSB BSB: Tongues, then, are a sign, not for believers, but for unbelievers. Prophecy, however, is for believers, not for unbelievers.
23 PBM Ngaradukana ni kalembu tu matua bana pakatuana dabbana ti sisa panyia, ngaranduka napanewi waina lamma, baisa o tu maattalakasa, aita walika tu ma ata panewi patauna, atta da takki anai yo bakalanggu? BSB BSB: So 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?

BSB BSB: But if an unbeliever or uninstructed person comes in while everyone is prophesying, he will be convicted and called to account by all,
25 PBM Nimma ona ti atina na tdungngai, dangngu na kataba dangngu na sabaya ti Allah, na akui mabai Allah oni ti sangani yimmi. BSB BSB: and the secrets of his heart will be made known. So he will fall facedown and worship God, proclaiming, “God is truly among you!”
26 PBM Nidai, ni lodumi palinimisa angngu wala? Tangnga paka luami, o dabba mamurini, pajana, papa takka, silu aitaka pakatutu waido, dangngu ngara dukkanari dia pasalakuri tutuni pakadiwai. BSB BSB: What 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.
27 PBM Nika okaka tu masilu waina lamma, ti maduara matadadi, opu sa tu ma lakasana silu ka piani bana panewi ti yidda ngara pani silu ni samani. BSB BSB: If anyone speaks in a tongue, two, or at most three, should speak in turn, and someone must interpret.
28 PBM Takka, ba atta okaka tu mapalali nggi ti silu, yinna kanna ndangngu ti kalembu tuma tua dangngu amma ammu nisa banna panewi nggini kalita wikkina dangngu ti muri Allah. BSB BSB: But if there is no interpreter, he should remain silent in the church and speak only to himself and God.
29 PBM Amma ammu ndarraka ba wada aita walli tiula nabi maoanewi dangngu masawawi na kadda timbai. BSB BSB: Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said.
30 PBM Takka, milai ni papa etabawolu tutuda tu sawawi ma mandidi hai, tu mimakawungnga kanna ndangngu. BSB BSB: And if a revelation comes to someone who is seated, the first speaker should stop.

33 PBM Mabba Allah atau Allah walli timakaya wuka amma, takka ndami manjibu-nyaba, sama tuni ti dalu ngara ndukka kalembu tu matua. BSB BSB: For God is not a God of disorder, but of peace—as in all the churches of the saints.
35 PBM Takka ba o"kaka pa wukka pasakola da, amma ammu ndarra ka kadda pa katana na ti lewi da ti umma mabba yinna nggo pamakaya dangngiai kawinni badda panewi tudalu kalembu tu matua. BSB BSB: If 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.
36 PBM Appalinni nipanewi nai allah walli nitiyimi? aitawalika, damika yimmi mesani panewi nggo batoma nggi? BSB BSB: Did the word of God originate with you? Or are you the only ones it has reached?

40 PBM Takka, ngara ndukka ni kau passalakui wainggi nipatanubi dangngu ni banyarani. BSB BSB: But everything must be done in a proper and orderly manner.
