Chapter 13

1


 

  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.  

 

 

-

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 its 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 are prophecies, they shall fail; whether there are languages, they shall cease; whether there is 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 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 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.
