1 Corinthians 14:7-11
7YetG3676 even lifelessG895 thingsG895, eitherG1535 fluteG836 orG1535 harpG2788, in producingG1325 a soundG5456, ifG1437 they do not produceG1325 a distinctionG1293 in the tonesG5353, howG4459 will it be knownG1097 what is playedG832 on the fluteG832 orG2228 on the harpG2789?
8For ifG1437 1the 2bugleG4536 producesG1325 an indistinctG82 soundG5456, whoG5101 will prepareG3903 himself for battleG4171?
9SoG3779 alsoG2532 you, unlessG1437G3361 you utterG1325 by the tongueG1100 speechG3056 that is clearG2154, howG4459 will it be knownG1097 what is spokenG2980? For you will be 3speakingG2980 into the airG109.
10There are, perhapsG5177, a greatG5118 manyG5118 kindsG1085 of 4languagesG5456 in the worldG2889, and noG3762 kind is withoutG880 meaningG880.
11IfG1437 thenG3767 I do not knowG3609 the meaningG1411 of the languageG5456, I will be to the one who speaksG2980 a 56barbarianG915, and the one who speaksG2980 will be a 7barbarianG915 8to me.
