EMTV - I Corinthians - 13

13:1  Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a clashing cymbal.

13:2  And though I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

13:3  And though I give away all my possessions to feed the poor, and though I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

13:4  Love is patient, love is kind; love does not envy; love does not boast, is not arrogant;

13:5  does not behave disgracefully, does not seek its own, is not provoked to anger, thinks no evil;

13:6  does not rejoice over unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;

13:7  bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

13:8  Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they shall pass away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall pass away.

13:9  Now we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

13:10  But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is partial shall pass away.

13:11  When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child; but when I became a man, I put away the things of the child.

13:12  For now we see through a mirror by reflection, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

13:13  And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
