1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. |
2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. |
3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, |
5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, |
6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; |
7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. |
8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Love never fails; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away. |
9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part; |
10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. |
11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. |
12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known. |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love. |
