1 Corinthians 14:15-17
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
15 What then[a] is to be done? I will pray with the spirit, and[b] I will also pray with the mind. I will sing-praise with the spirit, and I will also sing-praise with the mind. 16 Otherwise, if you are blessing[c] with your spirit[d] [only], how will the one filling the place of the uninstructed[e] say the “Amen” at your thanksgiving, since he does not know what you are saying? 17 For you are giving-thanks well[f]— but the other person is not being edified.
