1 Corinthians 14:15-17
New International Version
15 So what shall I do? I will pray with my spirit,(A) but I will also pray with my understanding; I will sing(B) with my spirit, but I will also sing with my understanding. 16 Otherwise when you are praising God in the Spirit, how can someone else, who is now put in the position of an inquirer,[a] say “Amen”(C) to your thanksgiving,(D) since they do not know what you are saying? 17 You are giving thanks well enough, but no one else is edified.(E)
