When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood ( U) behind me. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. 9 For we know in part ( S) and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, ( T) what is in part disappears. But where there are prophecies, ( Q) they will cease where there are tongues, ( R) they will be stilled where there is knowledge, it will pass away. ( O) 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. ( M) 6 Love does not delight in evil ( N) but rejoices with the truth. ( J) 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, ( K) it is not easily angered, ( L) it keeps no record of wrongs. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

3 If I give all I possess to the poor ( G) and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, ( H) but do not have love, I gain nothing.Ĥ Love is patient, ( I) love is kind. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy ( B) and can fathom all mysteries ( C) and all knowledge, ( D) and if I have a faith ( E) that can move mountains, ( F) but do not have love, I am nothing. 13 If I speak in the tongues ( A) of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
