but the one prophesying speaks to men edification, exhortation, and comfort. The one speaking with a tongue edifies himself; but the one prophesying edifies the church. But I wish you all to speak with tongues, but rather that you may prophesy: but greater is the one prophesying, than the one speaking with tongues, unless he may interpret, in order that the church may receive edification.
