1 Corinthians 14:37-40 if anyone habitually presumes (continues in assuming; normally imagines himself) to be a prophet or a spiritual one, let him continue to fully know and acknowledge the things which I am now writing to you folks, because they are the Lords = Christ's or Yahweh's implanted goals (impartations of the finished product within; inward, purposeful directives)!

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ³⁷ if anyone habitually presumes (continues in assuming; normally imagines [himself]) to be a prophet or a spiritual one, let him continue to fully know and acknowledge the things which I am now writing to you folks, because they are [the] Lords [= Christ's or Yahweh's] implanted goals (impartations of the finished product within; inward, purposeful directives)! ³⁸ Yet if anyone continues being ignorant or mistaken [of this], let him continue without knowledge [other MSS: he continues being left ignorant and mistaken]. (or: Now if anyone is habitually without experiential understanding, [this] continues being not known [by him].) ³⁹ Consequently, my brothers (= fellow members and family), with boiling fervor and affection, be habitually zealous for the prophesying (the proclaiming [of God's message] before others; or: the having and/or speaking light ahead of time), and do not be in the habit of cutting off, forbidding or hindering the habitual babbling in languages (or: speaking or conversing in tongues). ⁴⁰ Yet let all things be progressively occurring (or: coming to be) with good form (respectably; with good appearance and propriety) and corresponding to an arranged order (or: in the sphere of an aligned arrangement).
