1 Corinthians 14:6-14

6ButG1161 nowG1161, brethrenG80, ifG1437 IG1437 comeG2064 unto youG5210 speakingG2980 withG1722 tonguesG1100, whatG5101 shallG1100 IG1437 profitG5623 youG5210, unlessG1437 IG1437 speakG2980 toG4314 youG5210 eitherG2228 byG1722 wayG1722 ofG1722 revelationG602, orG2228 ofG1722 knowledgeG1108, orG2228 ofG1722 prophesyingG4394, orG2228 ofG1722 teachingG1322?

7EvenG1437 thingsG3588 withoutG3361 life, givingG1325 a voiceG5456, whetherG1535 pipe orG2228 harpG2788, ifG1437 theyG1437 giveG1325 notG3361 a distinctionG1293 inG2228 theG3588 soundsG5456, howG4459 shall itG1437 beG2228 knownG1097 whatG3588 is piped orG2228 harped?

8ForG1063 ifG1437 theG2532 trumpetG4536 giveG1325 anG1325 uncertain voiceG5456, whoG5101 shallG2532 prepareG3903 himselfG1519 forG1063 warG4171?

9SoG2532 alsoG2532 ye, unlessG1437 ye utterG1325 byG1223 theG3588 tongueG1100 speechG3056 easy toG1519 beG1510 understoodG1097, howG4459 shallG2532 itG1437 beG1510 knownG1097 whatG3588 isG1510 spokenG2980? forG1063 ye willG1510 beG1510 speakingG2980 intoG1519 theG3588 airG109.

10ThereG1510 areG1510, itG1510 mayG2532 beG1510, soG2532 manyG5118 kindsG1085 ofG5456 voicesG5456 inG1722 theG2532 worldG2889, andG2532 noG3762 kindG1085 isG1510 withoutG2532 signification.

11IfG1437 thenG2532 IG1473 knowG1492 notG3361 theG3588 meaningG1411 ofG1411 theG3588 voiceG5456, IG1473 shallG2532 beG1510 toG2532 himG2532 thatG1437 speaketh aG1510 barbarianG915, andG2532 heG2532 thatG1437 speaketh willG1510 beG1510 aG1510 barbarianG915 unto meG1473.

12SoG2443 alsoG2532 ye, sinceG1893 ye areG1510 zealousG2207 ofG4151 spiritualG4151 gifts, seekG2212 thatG2443 ye mayG2532 aboundG4052 unto theG3588 edifyingG3619 ofG4151 theG3588 churchG1577.

13WhereforeG1352 letG2443 himG2443 thatG2443 speaketh inG2980 a tongueG1100 prayG4336 thatG2443 heG1352 mayG2443 interpretG1329.

14ForG1063 ifG1437 IG1473 prayG4336 inG1161 aG1510 tongueG1100, my spiritG4151 prayeth, butG1161 my understandingG3563 isG1510 unfruitfulG175.
