1 Corinthians 13:4-13
4Love 1is patient, love is kind, it 2is not jealous; love does not brag, it is not 3arrogant. 5It does not act disgracefully, it 4does not seek its own benefit; it is not provoked, 5does not keep an account of a wrong suffered, 66it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but 7rejoices with the truth; 7it 89keeps every confidence, it believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8Love never fails; but if there are gifts of 1011prophecy, they will be done away with; if there are 12tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be done away with. 9For we 13know in part and prophesy in part; 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with. 11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I 14became a man, I did away with childish things. 12For now we 15see in a mirror 16dimly, but then 17face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I also 18have been fully known. 13But now faith, hope, and love remain, these three; but the 19greatest of these is 20love.
