1 Corinthians 13
1ThoughG1437 I speakG2980 with the tonguesG3588G1100 of menG3588G444 andG2532 of angelsG3588G32, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, I am becomeG1096 as soundingG2278 brassG5475, orG2228 a tinklingG214 cymbalG2950. 2AndG2532 thoughG1437 I haveG2192 the gift of prophecyG4394, andG2532 understandG1492 allG3956 mysteriesG3588G3466, andG2532 allG3956 knowledgeG3588G1108; andG2532 thoughG1437 I haveG2192 allG3956 faithG3588G4102, so thatG5620 I could removeG3179 mountainsG3735, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, I amG1510 nothingG3762. 3AndG2532 thoughG1437 I bestowG5595 allG3956 myG1473 goodsG3588G5225 to feedG5595 the poor, andG2532 thoughG1437 I giveG3860 myG1473 bodyG3588G4983 toG2443 be burnedG2545, andG1161 haveG2192 notG3361 charityG26, it profiteth meG5623 nothingG3762.
4CharityG3588G26 suffereth longG3114, and is kindG5541; charityG3588G26 enviethG2206 notG3756; charityG3588G26 vauntethG4068 notG3756 itselfG4068, isG5448 notG3756 puffed upG5448, 5Doth notG3756 behave itselfG807 unseemlyG807, seekethG2212 notG3756 her ownG1438, isG3947 notG3756 easily provokedG3947, thinkethG3049 noG3756 evilG2556; 6RejoicethG5463 notG3756 inG1909 iniquityG3588G93, butG1161 rejoiceth inG4796 the truthG3588G225; 7BearethG4722 all thingsG3956, believethG4100 all thingsG3956, hopethG1679 all thingsG3956, endurethG5278 all thingsG3956. 8CharityG3588G26 neverG3763 failethG1601: butG1161 whetherG1535 there be propheciesG4394, they shall failG2673; whetherG1535 there be tonguesG1100, they shall ceaseG3973; whetherG1535 there be knowledgeG1108, it shall vanish awayG2673. 9ForG1063 we knowG1097 inG1537 partG3313, andG2532 we prophesyG4395 inG1537 partG3313. 10ButG1161 whenG3752 that which isG3588 perfectG5046 is comeG2064, thenG5119 that which isG3588 inG1537 partG3313 shall be done awayG2673. 11WhenG3753 I wasG1510 a childG3516, I spakeG2980 asG5613 a childG3516, I understoodG5426 asG5613 a childG3516, I thoughtG3049 asG5613 a childG3516: butG1161 whenG3753 I becameG1096 a manG435, I put awayG2673 childishG3516 thingsG3588. 12ForG1063 nowG737 we seeG991 throughG1223 a glassG2072, darklyG135; butG1161 thenG5119 faceG4383 toG4314 faceG4383: nowG737 I knowG1097 inG1537 partG3313; butG1161 thenG5119 shall I knowG1921 even asG2531 alsoG2532 I am knownG1921. 13
AndG1161 nowG3570 abidethG3306 faithG4102, hopeG1680, charityG26, theseG3778 threeG5140; butG1161 the greatestG3173 of theseG3778 is charityG3588G26.
