1 Corinthians 14:8-10
New American Standard Bible
8 For if (A)the trumpet produces an indistinct sound, who will prepare himself for battle? 9 So you too, unless you produce intelligible speech by the tongue, how will it be known what is spoken? For you will just be (B)talking to the air. 10 There are, perhaps, a great many kinds of [a]languages in the world, and none is incapable of meaning.

1 Corinthians 14:8-10
New International Version
8 Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle?(A) 9 So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air. 10 Undoubtedly there are all sorts of languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning.
