The Way of Love

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2And if I have aprophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, bso as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3cIf I give away all I have, and dif I deliver up my body to be burned,1 but have not love, I gain nothing.

4eLove is patient and fkind; love gdoes not envy or boast; it his not arrogant 5or rude. It idoes not insist on its own way; it jis not irritable or resentful;2 6it kdoes not rejoice at wrongdoing, but lrejoices with the truth. 7mLove bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, eendures all things.

8Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9For nwe know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but owhen the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12For pnow we see in a mirror dimly, but qthen face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as rI have been fully known.

13So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
