¹ If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but I do not have love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. ² And if I have prophecies, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. ³ And if I give out all my goods, and if I deliver my body that I be burned, but I do not have love, I am not profited anything. ⁴ Love has patience, is kind; love is not envious; love is not vain, is not puffed up; ⁵ does not behave indecently, does not pursue its own things, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; ⁶ does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth. ⁷ Love quietly covers all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. ⁸ Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will be caused to cease; if tongues, they shall cease; if knowledge, it will be caused to cease. ⁹ For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; ¹⁰ but when the perfect thing comes, then that which is in part will be caused to cease. ¹¹ When I was an infant, I spoke as an infant, I thought as an infant, I reasoned as an infant. But when I became a man, I caused to cease the things of the infant. ¹² For now we see through a mirror in dimness, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will fully know even as I also was fully known. ¹³ And now faith, hope, and love, these three things remain; but the greatest of these is love.
