1 Corinthians 14:4-11
4He thatG3588 speakethG2980 in anG1100 unknown tongueG1100 edifiethG3618 himselfG1438; butG1161 he thatG3588 prophesiethG4395 edifiethG3618 the AssemblyG1577. 5I wouldG2309 that yeG4771 allG3956 spakeG2980 with tonguesG1100, butG1161 even moreG3123 thatG2443 ye prophesiedG4395: forG1063 greaterG3173 is he thatG3588 prophesiethG4395 thanG2228 he thatG3588 speakethG2980 with tonguesG1100, exceptG1622 he interpretG1329, thatG2443 the AssemblyG3588G1577 may receiveG2983 edifyingG3619. 6
NowG3570, brethrenG80, ifG1437 I comeG2064 untoG4314 youG4771 speakingG2980 with tonguesG1100, whatG5101 shall I profitG5623 youG4771, exceptG1437 I shall speakG2980 to youG4771 eitherG2228 byG1722 revelationG602, orG2228 byG1722 knowledgeG1108, orG2228 byG1722 prophesyingG4394, orG2228 byG1722 doctrineG1322? 7And evenG3676 thingsG3588 without lifeG895 givingG1325 soundG5456, whetherG1535 pipeG836 orG1535 harpG2788, exceptG1437 they giveG1325 a distinctionG1293 in the soundsG3588G5353, howG4459 shall it be knownG1097 whatG3588 is pipedG832 orG2228 harpedG2789? 8ForG1063 ifG1437 the trumpetG4536 giveG1325 an uncertainG82 soundG5456, whoG5101 shall prepare himselfG3903 toG1519 the battleG4171? 9SoG3779 likewiseG2532 yeG4771, exceptG1437 ye utterG1325 byG1223 the tongueG3588G1100 wordsG3056 easyG2154 to beG1510 understoodG2154, howG4459 shall it be knownG1097 whatG3588 is spokenG2980? forG1063 ye shall speakG2980 intoG1519 the airG109. 10There areG1510, it mayG1487 beG5177, so manyG5118 kindsG1085 of voicesG5456 inG1722 the worldG2889, andG2532 noneG3762 of themG846 is without significationG880. 11ThereforeG3767 ifG1437 I knowG1492 notG3361 the meaningG3588G1411 of the voiceG3588G5456, I shall beG1510 unto himG3588 that speakethG2980 a barbarianG915, andG2532 heG3588 that speakethG2980 shall be a barbarianG915 untoG1722 meG1473.
