1 Corinthians 14:16 in Context — 1 Corinthians 14
14 Porque se eu orar em língua [estranha] , meu espírito ora, mas meu entendimento fica sem fruto.
15 Então é o que? Orarei com o espírito, mas também orarei com o entendimento; cantarei com o espírito, mas também cantarei com o entendimento.
16 De outra maneira, se tu bendisseres com o espírito, como aquele que não tem conhecimento dirá amém por teu bendizer? Pois ele não sabe o que tu dizes.
17 Porque em verdade tu bem dás graças; mas o outro não é edificado.
18 Graças dou a meu Deus, que mais línguas falo que todos vós.
