1 Corinthians 14:13-15
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
So In Church, Tongues Must Be Interpreted If The Hearers Are To Be Edified
13 Therefore let the one speaking in a tongue pray in order that he might interpret. 14 For if I am praying in a tongue, my spirit[a] is praying, but my mind[b] is unfruitful[c]. 15 What then[d] is to be done? I will pray with the spirit, and[e] I will also pray with the mind. I will sing-praise with the spirit, and I will also sing-praise with the mind.
