1 Corinthians 13:1-7

1IfG1437 I speakG2980 with the 1tonguesG1100 of mankindG444 and of 2angelsG32, but do not haveG2192 loveG26, I have becomeG1096 a noisyG2278 gongG5475 orG2228 a 3clangingG214 cymbalG2950. 2IfG1437 I haveG2192 the gift of 4prophecyG4394 and knowG3609 allG3956 5mysteriesG3466 and allG3956 6knowledgeG1108, and ifG1437 I haveG2192 7allG3956 faithG4102 soG5620 as to 8removeG3179 mountainsG3735, but do not haveG2192 loveG26, I amG1510 nothingG3762. 3And ifG1437 I 9giveG5595 awayG5595 allG3956 my possessionsG5225 to charity, and ifG1437 I 10surrenderG3860 my bodyG4983 soG2443 thatG2443 I may 11gloryG2744, but do not haveG2192 loveG26, it doesG5623 me noG3762 goodG5623.

4LoveG26 12isG3114 patientG3114, loveG26 is kindG5541, it 13isG2206 not jealousG2206; loveG26 does not bragG4068, it is not 14arrogantG5448. 5It does not actG807 disgracefullyG807, it 15does not seekG2212 its ownG1438 benefit; it is not provokedG3947, 16does not keepG3049 anG3049 accountG3049 of a wrongG2556 suffered, 617it does not rejoiceG5463 in unrighteousnessG93, but 18rejoicesG4796 withG4796 the truthG225; 7it 1920keepsG4722 everyG3956 confidenceG4722, it believesG4100 allG3956 thingsG3956, hopesG1679 allG3956 thingsG3956, enduresG5278 allG3956 thingsG3956.
