Strong's King James

The F.O.G

[6] Family, if I came to you speaking only in unknown tongues, how would that help you? But if I bring revelation that opens your eyes, knowledge that expands your understanding, prophecy that touches your heart, or teaching that transforms your life—that's truly valuable.

The F.O.G Paraphrase

And now, brethren, if I may come unto you speaking tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophesying, or in teaching?
