1 Corinthians 14:13-15

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹³ Therefore, the person who speaks in an [unknown] tongue should pray [for the power] to interpret and explain what he says.

¹⁴ For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit [by the ^[a]Holy Spirit within me] prays, but my mind is unproductive [it bears no fruit and helps nobody].

¹⁵ Then what am I to do? I will pray with my spirit [by the ^[b]Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will also pray [intelligently] with my mind and understanding; I will sing with my spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me], but I will sing [intelligently] with my mind and understanding also.
