1 Corinthians 14:2

Ὁ γὰρ λαλῶν γλώσσῃ οὐκ ἀνθρώποις λαλεῖ, ἀλλὰ τῷ Θεῷ· οὐδεὶς γὰρ ἀκούει, Πνεύματι δὲ λαλεῖ μυστήρια.
O gar lalōn glōssē oyk anthrōpois lalei, alla tō Theō· oydeis gar akoyei, Pneymati de lalei mystēria.
King James Version (KJV)

For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

Modern English

For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.
