Love
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 speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
Love Is the Greatest
If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
And if I have 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.
If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.
And if I shall dole out all my goods in food, and if I deliver up my body that I may be burned, but have not love, I profit nothing.
Love has long patience, is kind; love is not emulous [of others]; love is not insolent and rash, is not puffed up,
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud
does not behave in an unseemly manner, does not seek what is its own, is not quickly provoked, does not impute evil,
or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
does not rejoice at iniquity but rejoices with the truth,
It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
Love never fails; but whether prophecies, they shall be done away; or tongues, they shall cease; or knowledge, it shall be done away.
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part:
Now our knowledge is partial and incomplete, and even the gift of prophecy reveals only part of the whole picture!
but when that which is perfect has come, that which is in part shall be done away.
But when the time of perfection comes, these partial things will become useless.
When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; when I became a man, I had done with what belonged to the child.
When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things.
For we see now through a dim window obscurely, but then face to face; now I know partially, but then I shall know according as I also have been known.
