    13Wherfore let him that speaketh wt tunges, praye, that he maye interprete also.

    14Yf I praye with tunges, my sprete prayeth, but my vnderstodinge bryngeth no man frute.

    15How shal it be then? Namely thus: I wil praye with ye sprete, and wil praye with the vnderstodinge also: I wil synge psalmes in the sprete, and wil synge spalmes with ye vnderstondinge also.

    2For he yt speaketh with tunges, speaketh not vnto men, but vnto God: for no man heareth him. Howbeit in ye sprete he speaketh misteries.

    3But he that prophecieth, speaketh vnto men to edifienge, & to exhortacion, and to coforte.

    4He that speaketh with tunges, edifieth himselfe: but he that prophecieth, edifieth the cogregacion.
