2And 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.Select 1 Corinthians 13:2
3And 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.Select 1 Corinthians 13:3
4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,Select 1 Corinthians 13:4
5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;Select 1 Corinthians 13:5
6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;Select 1 Corinthians 13:6
7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.Select 1 Corinthians 13:7
8Charity 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.Select 1 Corinthians 13:8
9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.Select 1 Corinthians 13:9
