13 | 1 Corinthians |
|
1 |
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. | |
2 |
And though I have prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. | |
3 |
And though I bestow all my goods to feed , and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. | |
4 |
Charity suffereth long, is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, | |
5 |
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; | |
6 |
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; | |
7 |
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. | |
8 |
Charity never faileth: but whether prophecies, they shall fail; whether tongues, they shall cease; whether knowledge, it shall vanish away. | |
9 |
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. | |
10 |
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. | |
11 |
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. | |
12 |
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. | |
13 |
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these charity. | |
