ગુજરાતીકરિંથીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૧૪:૨૧
નિયમશાસ્ત્રમાં લખ્યું છે કે, ‘અન્ય ભાષાઓથી તથા અજાણી પ્રજાઓના હોઠોથી હું આ લોકોની સાથે બોલીશ, તોપણ તેઓ મારું સાંભળશે નહીં,’ એમ પ્રભુ કહે છે.
हिन्दी1 कुरिन्थियों १४:२१
व्यवस्था में लिखा है, कि प्रभु कहता है, “मैं अन्य भाषा बोलनेवालों के द्वारा, और पराए मुख के द्वारा इन लोगों से बात करूँगा तो भी वे मेरी न सुनेंगे।” (यशा. 28:11,12)

In context

19However, in the assembly I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I might instruct others also, than ten thousand words in another language.

20Brothers, don’t be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.

21In the law it is written, “By men of strange languages and by the lips of strangers I will speak to this people. They won’t even listen to me that way, says the Lord.”

22Therefore other languages are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to the unbelieving; but prophesying is for a sign, not to the unbelieving, but to those who believe.

23If therefore the whole assembly is assembled together and all speak with other languages, and unlearned or unbelieving people come in, won’t they say that you are crazy?
