BibleText:
1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and do not have [agape] love, I have become [like] a noisy brass [instrument], or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have prophetic [insight], and understand all the hidden things, and all the known things; and though I have absolute faith, so that I could remove mountains, and do not have [agape] love, I am nothing. 3 And if I give away all my possessions to feed [the poor], and if I give my body to be burned [as a martyr], and do not have [agape] love, it is of no benefit to me. 4 [Agape] love endures patiently, [and] is kind; [agape] love does not envy; [agape] love does not brag, is not arrogant, 5 Does not behave improperly, does not try to have its own way, is not easily provoked, does not take evil into account; 6 Does not rejoice in injustice, but rejoices in the truth; 7 Always covers up, always has faith, always has a positive expectation, always perseveres. 8 [Agape] love never loses its efficiency: but if [there are] prophecies, they will come to an end; if [there are] tongues, they will cease; if [there is] knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 For our knowledge is limited, and our prophecy is limited. 10 But when maturity has come, then the limitations will be removed. 11 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. 12 For now we see through a mirror, a puzzling image; but then [we will see] face to face: for now I know partially; but then I will know just as I also am known. 13 So now these three continue to exist faith, hope, and [agape] love; but the greatest of these [is] [agape] love.
