1 Corinthians 14:2-5

2For he that speaksG2980 with a tongueG1100 does not speakG2980 to menG444 but to 1GodG2316: for no oneG3762 hearsG191; but in spiritG4151 he speaksG2980 mysteriesG3466.

3But he that prophesiesG4395 speaksG2980 to menG444 [in] edificationG3619, and encouragementG3874, and consolation.

4He that speaksG2980 with a tongueG1100 edifiesG3618 himself; but he that prophesiesG4395 edifiesG3618 [the] assemblyG1577.

5NowG1161 I desireG2309 that ye should all speakG2980 with tonguesG1100, but ratherG3123 that ye should prophesyG4395. But greaterG3173 is he that prophesiesG4395 than he that speaksG2980 with tonguesG1100, unless he interpretG1329, that the assemblyG1577 may receiveG2983 edificationG3619.
