¹³ Therefore, one who speaks in a tongue is to pray that he may interpret. ¹⁴ For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unproductive. ^15 (A)What is the outcome then? I will pray with the spirit, but I will pray with the mind also; I will ^(B)sing with the spirit, but I will sing with the mind also. ¹⁶ For otherwise, if you bless God ^[a]in the spirit only, how will the one who occupies the place of the ^[b]outsider know to say ^(C)the “Amen” at your ^(D)giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you are saying? ¹⁷ For you are giving thanks well enough, but the other person is not ^(E)edified. ¹⁸ I thank God, I speak in tongues more than you all; ¹⁹ nevertheless, in church I prefer to speak five words with my mind so that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue.
