1 Corinthians 14:34-36

Orderly Worship

34 z the women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but a should be in submission, as b the Law also says. 35 If there is anything they desire to learn, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

36 Or was it from you that the word of God came? Or are you the only ones it has reached?
