ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૧૧:૧૭
એ કહીને હું તમારી પ્રશંસા કરતો નથી, કેમ કે તમે સુધારાને માટે નહિ, પણ બગાડને સારુ ભેગા મળો છો.
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों ११:१७
परन्तु यह निर्देश देते हुए, मैं तुम्हें नहीं सराहता, इसलिए कि तुम्हारे इकट्ठे होने से भलाई नहीं, परन्तु हानि होती है।

In context

15But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her, for her hair is given to her for a covering.

16But if any man seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither do God’s assemblies.

17But in giving you this command I don’t praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

18For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.

19For there also must be factions among you, that those who are approved may be revealed among you.
