| 1st-Corinthians 13:1 | If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal. | If I make use of the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am like sounding brass, or a loud-tongued bell. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:2 | And if 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 have not love, I am nothing. | And if I have a prophet's power, and have knowledge of all secret things; and if I have all faith, by which mountains may be moved from their place, but have not love, I am nothing. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:3 | And if I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profiteth me nothing. | And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:4 | Love suffereth long, [and] is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, | Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride; |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:5 | doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil; | Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil; |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:6 | rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth; | It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true; |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:7 | beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. | Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:8 | Love never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall be done away; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall be done away. | Though the prophet's word may come to an end, tongues come to nothing, and knowledge have no more value, love has no end. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:9 | For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; | For our knowledge is only in part, and the prophet's word gives only a part of what is true: |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:10 | but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away. | But when that which is complete is come, then that which is in part will be no longer necessary. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:11 | When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now that I am become a man, I have put away childish things. | When I was a child, I made use of a child's language, I had a child's feelings and a child's thoughts: now that I am a man, I have put away the things of a child. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:12 | For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known. | For now we see things in a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now my knowledge is in part; then it will be complete, even as God's knowledge of me. |
| 1st-Corinthians 13:13 | But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love. | But now we still have faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love. |
