1 Corinthians 14:19-21

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁹ Yet I would rather speak five words in my own understanding while also instructing others in the Church, than speak ten thousand words in a tongue.

²⁰ Brothers, do not be children in understanding, but concerning wickedness be children; in understanding be of a ripe age.

²¹ In the Law it is written, “‘By other tongues, and by other languages, will I speak to this people. Yet so shall they not hear me’, says the Lord.”
