1 Corinthians 14:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 Brothers, don’t be childish in your thinking, but be infants in regard to evil and adult in your thinking.(A) 21 It is written in the law:
I will speak to these people
by people of other languages
and by the lips of foreigners,
and even then, they will not listen to Me,(B)[a]
says the Lord. 22 It follows that speaking in other languages is intended as a sign,[b] not for believers but for unbelievers. But prophecy is not for unbelievers but for believers.
