kjc - 1Corinthians:13:1-13

kjc@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:4 @ Love suffers long, and is kind; love envies not; love vaunts not itself, is not puffed up,

kjc@1Corinthians:13:5 @ Does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil;

kjc@1Corinthians:13:6 @ Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

kjc@1Corinthians:13:7 @ Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:9 @ For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:10 @ But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know just as also I am known.

kjc@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
