18I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
19Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an tongue.
20Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.
21In the law it is written, With other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord.
