The verse opens with hoste {ὥστε | hṓ-ste} ‘so then,’ an inferential conjunction that draws a practical conclusion from the preceding discussion about orderly worship and the relative value of prophecy and tongues.
In context — 1 Corinthians 14:39
So then, my brothers , be zealous to prophesy , and do not forbid speaking in tongues.
