1 Corinthians 14:19

ἀλλ' ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ θέλω πέντε λόγους διὰ τοῦ νοός μου λαλῆσαι, ἵνα καὶ ἄλλους κατηχήσω, ἢ μυρίους λόγους ἐν γλώσσῃ.
all' en ekklēsia thelō pente logoys dia toy noos moy lalēsai, ina kai alloys katēchēsō, ē myrioys logoys en glōssē.
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.
