1 Corinthians 14:1-3

11Pursue love, yet earnestly 2desire 3spiritual gifts, but especially that you may 4prophesy.

2For the one who 5speaks in a tongue does not speak to people, but to God; for no one 6understands, but 7in his spirit he speaks 8mysteries.

3But the one who prophesies speaks to people for 9edification, 1011exhortation, and consolation.
