1 Corinthians 14:5 Cross References - MLV

5 Now I wish for all of you to speak with foreign languages, but more in order that you may prophesy, for greater is he who prophesies than he who speaks with foreign languages, unless he translates, in order that the congregation may receive building up.

All do not speak with foreign languages, do they? All do not translate, do they?

1 Corinthians 14:18-40

18 I give-thanks to my God, I speak with foreign languages more than all of you. 19 But in the congregation, I wish to speak five words through my mind in order that I might also instruct others, than ten thousand words in a foreign language.
20 Brethren, do not become children in your mindsets, (but be infants in malice), but become mature in your mindsets. 21 It has been written in the law, ‘I will be speaking to this people in different languages and by other lips, and thus they will not even hear me, says the Lord.’ 22 So-then foreign languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving, but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe. 23 Therefore, if the whole congregation comes together in the same place, and if all speak with foreign languages, and if unskilled or unbelieving people come in, will they not be saying that you are insane? 24 But if all prophesy and some unbelieving or unskilled person comes in, he is reproved by all. He is judged by all. 25 And thus, the secret things of his heart become apparent, and so, when he has fallen down upon his face, he will be worshiping God, reporting that God really is among you.
26 Therefore brethren, what is it? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a revelation, has a foreign language, has a translation. Let all things happen for the building up. 27 If anyone speaks in a foreign language, let it be according to two or three at the most and individually, and let one translate. 28 But if there is no translator, let him be silent in the congregation, and let him speak to himself and to God. 29 But let the prophets speak by two or three and let the others discern. 30 But if a prophesy is revealed to another sitting by, let the first be silent. 31 For all of you are able to prophesy, one by one, in order that all may learn and all might be encouraged. 32 The spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets; 33 for God is not a God of unrest, but of peace.
As in all the congregations of the holy-ones: 34 let your women be silent in the congregations; for it has not permitted for them to speak, but to be subject, just-as the law also says. 35 And if they wish to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands in their own house; for it is shameful for women to speak in a congregation. 36 What? Was it from you that the word of God went forth? Or did it arrive only for you?
37 If anyone thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him fully know what I write to you, that they are the commandments from the Lord. 38 But if anyone is ignorant, let him be ignorant.
39 So-then brethren, be zealous to prophesy and do not forbid people to speak with foreign languages. 40 But let all things happen decently and according to some order.
