New King James Version

1 Corinthians 13

Love

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

The Greatest Gift

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

And though I have the gift of 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.

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up;

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil;

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

For we know in part and we prophesy in part.

But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

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.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

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.

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
