¹⁵ What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.

¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms `and' hymns `and' spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts unto God.

¹⁸ with all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons in the Spirit, and watching thereunto in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints,

²³ But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers.

²⁴ God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth.

⁷ For God is the King of all the earth: Sing ye praises with understanding.

²⁰ But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit,

¹⁸ What then? only that in every way, whether in pretence or in truth, Christ is proclaimed; and therein I rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.

¹⁷ Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

¹⁸ And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit;

¹⁹ speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord;

²⁰ giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father;

¹⁹ howbeit in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

¹⁹ What say I then? that a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?

⁵ But if our righteousness commendeth the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who visiteth with wrath? (I speak after the manner of men.)

³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God `is' for us, who `is' against us?

⁹ For God is my witness, whom I serve in my spirit in the gospel of his Son, how unceasingly I make mention of you, always in my prayers
