1 Corinthians 14:19

ἀλλ' ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ θέλω πέντε λόγους διὰ τοῦ νοός μου λαλῆσαι, ἵνα καὶ ἄλλους κατηχήσω, ἢ μυρίους λόγους ἐν γλώσσῃ.
King James Version (KJV)

Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue.

Modern English

But in the church I would rather speak five intelligible words to instruct others than ten thousand words in a tongue.

Greek

ἀλλ' ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ θέλω πέντε λόγους διὰ τοῦ νοός μου λαλῆσαι, ἵνα καὶ ἄλλους κατηχήσω, μυρίους λόγους ἐν γλώσσῃ.

all' en ekklēsia thelō pente logoys dia toy noos moy lalēsai, ina kai alloys katēchēsō, ē myrioys logoys en glōssē.
