But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. |
But he who prophesies speaks edification and exhortation and comfort to men. |
But one who prophesies speaks to men for edification and exhortation and consolation. |
But everyone who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort. |
But [on the other hand], the one who prophesies [who interprets the divine will and purpose in inspired preaching and teaching] speaks to men for their upbuilding and constructive spiritual progress and encouragement and consolation. |
But he who imparts divine revelations to men is speaking with the result of upbuilding the Christian life, and exhortation, and consolation. |
But he who preaches the word of God is using his speech for the building up of the faith of one man, the encouragement of another or the consolation of another. |
But whoever prophesies is speaking to men for their upbuilding, encouragement, and comfort. |
