    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.
