⁴ He that speaketh in a tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

²² Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to the unbelieving: but prophesying `is for a sign', not to the unbelieving, but to them that believe.

²⁶ What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.

¹⁷ And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues;

⁵ Now I would have you all speak with tongues, but rather that ye should prophesy: and greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying.

¹⁹ So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.

² And if I have `the gift of' prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

³ But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men edification, and exhortation, and consolation.
