1 Corinthians 13 BSB
Love
1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a ringing gong or a clanging cymbal. See the Greek order
2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have absolute faith so as to move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. See the Greek order
3 If I give all I possess to the poor and exult in the surrender of my body, but have not love, I gain nothing. See the Greek order
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. See the Greek order
5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs. See the Greek order
6 Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth. See the Greek order
7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. See the Greek order
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be restrained; where there is knowledge, it will be dismissed. See the Greek order
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, See the Greek order
10 but when the perfect comes, the partial passes away. See the Greek order
11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside childish ways. See the Greek order
12 Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. See the Greek order
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is love. See the Greek order
