1 Corinthians 14:19-21

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁹ however, in the church I desire to speak five words with my mind so that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue.

Instruction for the Church

^20 (A)Brethren, ^(B)do not be children in your thinking; yet in evil ^(C)be infants, but in your thinking be mature. ²¹ In ^(D)the Law it is written, “^(E)By men of strange tongues and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people, and even so they will not listen to Me,” says the Lord.
