When the supernatural gift of speaking tongues is used in a worship service, according to Scripture the uttered message is to be interpreted. Paul made this clear when he wrote to the Corinthians. He said.

But if there is no one to interpret, let them be silent in church and speak to themselves and to God (1 Corinthians 14:28 NRSV)

Those who have the gift of interpretation of tongues speak by the Spirit. The Bible says the interpretation of tongues is a spiritual gift. Paul wrote.

He gives one person the power to perform miracles, and to another the ability to prophesy. He gives someone else the ability to know whether it is really the Spirit of God or another spirit that is speaking. Still another person is given the ability to speak in unknown languages, and another is given the ability to interpret what is being said (1 Corinthians 12:10 NLT).

There is a gift of interpretation of tongues.

This Is a Supernatural Gift
A number of things must be said about the gift of interpretation of tongues. First, the interpretation of tongues is not the ability to understand a language that one has already learned. It is rather a supernatural ability to understand someone speaking in a language in which they have never learned. In other words, it is a gift from God.
