1 Corinthians 14 : 12 - 17
Chapter 14
| 12 | Even so you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, let it be for the edification of the church that you seek to excel.
|
| 13 | Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.
|
| 14 | For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.
|
| 15 | What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.
|
| 16 | Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?
|
| 17 | For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified.
|
The grace of God the Father be with you all.
Amen.
