1. Follow after love, and be emulous of spiritual manifestations, but rather that ye may prophesy.
2. For he that speaks with a tongue does not speak to men but to God: for no one hears; but in spirit he speaks mysteries.
3. But he that prophesies speaks to men in edification, and encouragement, and consolation.
4. He that speaks with a tongue edifies himself; but he that prophesies edifies the assembly.
