1 Corinthians 14:13-19
13So then, one who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret.
14If I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unproductive.
15What should I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing praises with my spirit, but I will also sing praises with my mind.
16Otherwise, if you are praising God with your spirit, how can someone without the gift say “Amen” to your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying?
17For you are certainly giving thanks well, but the other person is not strengthened.
18I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you,
19but in the church I want to speak five words with my mind to instruct others, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue.
