1 Corinthians Chapter 13

The Webster Bible

   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.
