Book 46 : 1 CORINTHIANS - Chapter 013
013:001
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
013:002
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
013:003
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not;
charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up
013:004
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not
easily provoked, thinketh no evil
013:005
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth
013:006
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,
endureth all things
013:007
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
013:008
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part
013:009
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in
part shall be done away
013:010
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
013:011
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
013:012
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the
greatest of these is charity
