1 Corinthians 14:12 in Context — 1 Corinthians 14
10 Tantos géneros de voces, por ejemplo, hay en el mundo, y nada hay mudo;
11 Mas si yo ignorare el valor de la voz, seré bárbaro al que habla, y el que habla será bárbaro para mí.
12 Así también vosotros; pues que anheláis espirituales [dones], procurad ser excelentes para la edificación de la iglesia.
13 Por lo cual, el que habla lengua [extraña], pida que [la] interprete.
14 Porque si yo orare en lengua [desconocida], mi espíritu ora; mas mi entendimiento es sin fruto.
