³⁶ But, when he saw the crowds, his heart was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed and harassed, 'like sheep without a shepherd';

¹ Though I speak in the 'tongues' of men, or even of angels, yet have not Love, I have become mere echoing brass, or a clanging cymbal! ² Even though I have the gift of preaching, and fathom all hidden truths and all the depths of knowledge; even though I have such faith as might move mountains, yet have not Love, I am nothing! ³ Even though I dole my substance to the poor, even though I sacrifice my body, that I may boast, yet have not Love, it avails me nothing! ⁴ Love is long-suffering, and kind; Love is never envious, never boastful, never conceited, never behaves unbecomingly; ⁵ Love is never self-seeking, never provoked, never reckons up her wrongs; ⁶ Love never rejoices at evil, but rejoices in the triumph of Truth; ⁷ Love bears with all things, every trustful, ever hopeful, ever patient. ⁸ Love never fails. But, whether it be the gift of preaching, it will be done with; whether it be the gift of 'tongues,' it will cease; whether it be knowledge, it, too, will be done with. ⁹ For our knowledge is incomplete, and our preaching is incomplete, ¹⁰ But, when the Perfect has come, that which is incomplete will be done with. ¹¹ When I was a child, I talked as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; now that I am a man, I have done with childish ways. ¹² As yet we see, in a mirror, dimly, but then-face to face! As yet my knowledge is incomplete, but then I shall know in full, as I have been fully known. ¹³ Meanwhile Faith, Hope, and Love endure-these three, but the greatest of these is Love.

⁹ The Lord is not slow to fulfil his promise, as some count slowness; but he is forbearing with you, as it is not his will that any of you should perish, but that all should be brought to repentance.
