1 Corinthians 14:11-13

Worldwide English (New Testament)

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.

¹² So it is with you. You want the gifts of the Spirit. Then you should want the gift which will make you better able to help the church people.

¹³ So then, the person who talks in a tongue of a different language, should ask God to help tell the meaning of the tongue.
