1 Corinthians 14:9-11

Worldwide English (New Testament)

⁹ If you say words that people cannot understand, they will not know what you say. You talk for nothing!

¹⁰ There are no doubt many different languages in the world. And every one of them has a meaning.

¹¹ But if a person talks in a language and I do not know the meaning of it, I will be like a stranger to him and he will be like a stranger to me.
