1 Corinthians 14:20-22
World English Bible
20 Brothers, don’t be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature. 21 In the law it is written, “By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. They won’t even hear me that way, says the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 14:20-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
20 Brothers and sisters, do not be children in your thinking; rather, be infants in evil, but in thinking be adults.(A) 21 In the law it is written,
“By people of strange tongues
and by the lips of foreigners
I will speak to this people,
yet even then they will not listen to me,”
says the Lord.(B) 22 Tongues, then, are a sign not for believers but for unbelievers, while prophecy is not for unbelievers but for believers.
