For it is to be that contentions be among you, that they who are approved with you may be known.

FOR I received from our Lord that which I have delivered unto you: that our Lord Jeshu in that night when he was betrayed took bread;

and he blessed and brake, and said, Take, eat, this (is) my body which for you is broken: so do to my remembrance.

For whensoever you eat this bread, and drink this cup, the death of our Lord you commemorate until his advent.

For whoever eateth and drinketh of it while not worthy, condemnation to himself he eateth and drinketh, because he hath not distinguished the body of the Lord.

For if we judge ourselves, we shall not be judged.

Wherefore, my brethren, when you assemble to eat, wait for one another.

For, as the body is one, and in it are many members, but all the members of the body, though many, are one body; so also is the Meshiha.

For we all by one Spirit into one body are baptized; whether Jihudoyee or Aramoyee; whether servants or sons of freedom; and all of us have imbibed one Spirit.

For the body also is not one member, but many.

For if the foot should say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body itself, would it therefore not be of the body itself ?

For if the whole body were the eye, where would be the hearing ? And if the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

28 FOR Aloha hath placed in the church, first, apostles; after them, prophets; after them, teachers; after them, workers of miracles; [fn] after them, gifts of healing, and helpers, and leaders, and kinds of tongues.

8 Love never falleth; [fn] for prophecies shall be abolished, and tongues be silent, and knowledge be abolished:

for it is a little of much that we know, and a little of much we prophesy;

For these are the three that remain, faith and hope and love; but the greatest of these is love.

For whoever speaketh in a tongue speaketh not to men but to Aloha; for man heareth nothing that he speaketh but in the Spirit he speaketh mysteries.

But I would that all of you could speak with tongues, but especially that you could prophesy. For greater is he who prophesieth than he who speaketh with tongues, unless he interpret. But if he interpret, he edifieth the church.

7 For those [fn] also which have no life in them, and give voice, whether pipe or harp, if distinction be not made between a tone and its fellow, how can it be known what is sung, or what is played ? [fn]

And if the trumpet call a voice which is not distinguished, who will prepare for the battle ?
