1 Corinthians 14:3-5
New International Version
3 But the one who prophesies speaks to people for their strengthening,(A) encouraging(B) and comfort. 4 Anyone who speaks in a tongue(C) edifies(D) themselves, but the one who prophesies(E) edifies the church. 5 I would like every one of you to speak in tongues,[a] but I would rather have you prophesy.(F) The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues,[b] unless someone interprets, so that the church may be edified.(G)
