"What is next? I should pray with the spirit, and also pray with the mind. I should sing psalms with the spirit, and also recite psalms with the mind. "
— 1 Corinthians 14:15, Catholic Public Domain Version
“What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”
“What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. ”
“What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also. I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”
“What should I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing praises with my spirit, but I will also sing praises with my mind.”
“What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, I will pray also with the understanding, I will sing with the spirit, I will sing also with the understanding.”
“What then? let my prayer be from the spirit, and equally from the mind; let my song be from the spirit, and equally from mind.”
“What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”
So it is with you also. And since you are zealous for what is spiritual, seek the edification of the Church, so that you may abound.
For this reason, too, whoever speaks in tongues, let him pray for the interpretation.
So, if I pray in tongues, my spirit prays, but my mind is without fruit.
What is next? I should pray with the spirit, and also pray with the mind. I should sing psalms with the spirit, and also recite psalms with the mind.
Otherwise, if you have blessed only with the spirit, how can someone, in a state of ignorance, add an “Amen” to your blessing? For he does not know what you are saying.
In this case, certainly, you give thanks well, but the other person is not edified.
I thank my God that I speak in tongues for all of you.
