King James Version
For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful.(1 Corinthians 14:14)
What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.(1 Corinthians 14:15)
Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest?(1 Corinthians 14:16)
For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified.
I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:(1 Corinthians 14:18)
Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.(1 Corinthians 14:19)
Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.(1 Corinthians 14:20)
