1 Corinthians 14:10 in context

  1. 8For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
  2. 9So also you, unless you uttered by the tongue words easy to understand, how would it be known what is spoken? For you would be speaking into the air.
  3. 10There are, it may be, so many kinds of sounds in the world, and none of them is without meaning.
  4. 11If then I don’t know the meaning of the sound, I would be to him who speaks a foreigner, and he who speaks would be a foreigner to me.
  5. 12So also you, since you are zealous for spiritual gifts, seek that you may abound to the building up of the assembly.
