"And
to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity"
1
Corinthians 13
- 1

I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity,
I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
- 2
- 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.
- 3
- 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.
- 4
- Charity
suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth
not itself, is not puffed up,
- 5
- Doth
not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked,
thinketh no evil;
- 6
- Rejoiceth
not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
- 7
- Beareth
all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all
things.
- 8
- 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.
- 9
- For
we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
- 10
- But
when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall
be done away.
- 11
- 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.
- 12
- 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.
- 13
- And
now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest
of these is charity."
