1 Corinthians 14:18-20
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
18 I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you; 19 nevertheless, in church I would rather speak five words with my mind, in order to instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.
20 Brothers and sisters,[a] do not be children in your thinking; rather, be infants in evil, but in thinking be adults.
