Do not quench the Spirit

"Do not stop the Holy Spirit from working among you"

Do not despise prophecies

"Do not have contempt for prophecies" or "Do not hate anything the Holy Spirit tells someone"

Test all things

"Make sure that all messages that seem to come from God truly come from him"

Hold on to what is good

Paul speaks of messages from the Holy Spirit as if they were objects that one could grasp in his hands. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)
