1 Corinthians 14:7-17
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.
12EvenG2532 soG3779 yeG4771, forasmuch asG1893 ye areG1510 zealousG2207 of spiritualG4151 gifts, seekG2212 thatG2443 ye may excelG4052 toG4314 the edifyingG3588G3619 of the AssemblyG3588G1577. 13WhereforeG1355 let himG3588 that speakethG2980 in anG1100 unknown tongueG1100 prayG4336 thatG2443 he may interpretG1329. 14ForG1063 ifG1437 I prayG4336 in anG1100 unknown tongueG1100, myG1473 spiritG3588G4151 prayethG4336, butG1161 myG1473 understandingG3563 isG1510 unfruitfulG175. 15WhatG5101 is itG1510 thenG3767? I will prayG4336 with the spiritG3588G4151, andG1161 I will prayG4336 with the understandingG3588G3563 alsoG2532: I will singG5567 with the spiritG3588G4151, andG1161 I will singG5567 with the understandingG3588G3563 alsoG2532. 16ElseG1893 whenG1437 thou shalt blessG2127 with the spiritG3588G4151, howG4459 shallG378 he thatG3588 occupiethG378 the roomG3588G5117 of the unlearnedG3588G2399 sayG2046 AmenG281 atG1909 thyG4674 giving of thanksG2169, seeingG1894 he understandethG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 thou sayestG3004? 17ForG1063 thouG4771 verilyG3303 givest thanksG2168 wellG2573, butG235 the otherG2087 isG3618 notG3756 edifiedG3618.
