    9so also ye, if through the tongue, speech easily understood ye may not give -- how shall that which is spoken be known? for ye shall be speaking to air.

    10There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is unmeaning,

    11if, then, I do not know the power of the voice, I shall be to him who is speaking a foreigner, and he who is speaking, is to me a foreigner;

    12so also ye, since ye are earnestly desirous of spiritual gifts, for the building up of the assembly seek that ye may abound;

    13wherefore he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- let him pray that he may interpret;

    14for if I pray in an `unknown' tongue, my spirit doth pray, and my understanding is unfruitful.

    15What then is it? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray also with the understanding; I will sing psalms with the spirit, and I will sing psalms also with the understanding;

    16since, if thou mayest bless with the spirit, he who is filling the place of the unlearned, how shall he say the Amen at thy giving of thanks, since what thou dost say he hath not known?

    18I give thanks to my God -- more than you all with tongues speaking --

    1Pursue the love, and seek earnestly the spiritual things, and rather that ye may prophecy,

    2for he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue -- to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;

    3and he who is prophesying to men doth speak edification, and exhortation, and comfort;

    4he who is speaking in an `unknown' tongue, himself doth edify, and he who is prophesying, an assembly doth edify;

    5and I wish you all to speak with tongues, and more that ye may prophecy, for greater is he who is prophesying than he who is speaking with tongues, except one may interpret, that the assembly may receive edification.

    6And now, brethren, if I may come unto you speaking tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in teaching?

    23If, therefore, the whole assembly may come together, to the same place, and all may speak with tongues, and there may come in unlearned or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?

    24and if all may prophecy, and any one may come in, an unbeliever or unlearned, he is convicted by all, he is discerned by all,

    25and so the secrets of his heart become manifest, and so having fallen upon `his' face, he will bow before God, declaring that God really is among you.

    26What then is it, brethren? whenever ye may come together, each of you hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation? let all things be for building up;

    27if an `unknown' tongue any one do speak, by two, or at the most, by three, and in turn, and let one interpret;

    28and if there may be no interpreter, let him be silent in an assembly, and to himself let him speak, and to God.
