Praying with the Spirit and the Mind

1 Corinthians 14:13-19

Wherefore, let him that speaketh a strange tongue, pray, that he may interprete.

For if I pray in a strange togue, my spirit prayeth: but mine vnderstading is without fruite.

What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, but I wil pray with the vnderstanding also: I wil sing with the spirite, but I will sing with the vnderstanding also.

Else, when thou blessest with the spirit, howe shall hee that occupieth the roome of the vnlearned, say Amen, at thy giuing of thankes, seeing he knoweth not what thou sayest?

For thou verely giuest thankes well, but the other is not edified.

I thanke my God, I speake languages more then ye all.

Yet had I rather in the Church to speake fiue wordes with mine vnderstanding, that I might also instruct others, then ten thousande wordes in a strange tongue.
