1 Corinthians 14:7-12
7Even things without life, givingG1325 a voiceG5456, whether pipe or harpG2788, if they giveG1325 not a distinctionG1293 in the soundsG5456, howG4459 shall it be knownG1097 what is piped or harped?
8For if the trumpetG4536 giveG1325 an uncertain voiceG5456, who shall prepare himself for warG4171?
9So alsoG2532 ye, unless ye utter by the tongueG1100 speechG3056 easy to beG1510 understoodG1097, howG4459 shall it beG1510 knownG1097 what isG1510 spokenG2980? for ye will beG1510 speakingG2980 into the airG109.
10There areG1510, it may beG1510, so manyG5118 kindsG1085 of voicesG5456 in the worldG2889, and no kindG1085 isG1510 without signification.
11If then I know not the meaning of the voiceG5456, I shall beG1510 to him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh will beG1510 a barbarian unto me.
12SoG2443 alsoG2532 ye, since ye areG1510 zealousG2207 of spiritual gifts, seekG2212 that ye may aboundG4052 unto the edifying of the churchG1577.
