1 Corinthians 14:7
| ← 1 Corinthians 14:6 | 1 Corinthians 14:7 (KJV) | 1 Corinthians 14:8 → |
|---|---|---|
Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine?
|
And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped?
|
For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle?
