George Leo Haydock, on 1Cor 14:13

“And therefore he that speaketh by a tongue, let him pray that he may interpret.”

“Pray that he may interpret. In order that he may be rendered more useful to the Church, as the martyrs, who prayed for those particular gifts they saw would be most useful for themselves, or their neighbours. (Calmet)”
