1 Corinthians 13:1-8

1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but I do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

2And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

3If I give away everything I own, and if I give over my body in order to boast, but do not have love, I receive no benefit.

4Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up.

5It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful.

6It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth.

7It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will be set aside; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be set aside.
