1 Corinthians 14:19

Revised Version 1885

howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

See the chapter Copy

He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

that thou mightest know the certainty concerning the things wherein thou wast instructed.

I thank God, I speak with tongues more than you all:

Brethren, be not children in mind: howbeit in malice be ye babes, but in mind be men.
