* Though I speak (5725 ) with the tongues of men and of angels , and have (5725 ) not charity , I am become (5754 ) as sounding (5723 ) brass , or a tinkling (5723 ) cymbal . * And though I have (5725 ) the gift of prophecy , and understand (5762 ) all mysteries , and all knowledge ; and though I have (5725 ) all faith , so that I could remove (5721 ) mountains , and have (5725 ) not charity , I am (5748 ) nothing . * And though I bestow all my goods (5723 ) to feed (5661 ) the poor , and though I give (5632 ) my body to be burned (5703 ), and have (5725 ) not charity , it profiteth me (5743 ) nothing . * Charity suffereth long (5719 ), and is kind (5736 ); charity envieth (5719 ) not ; charity vaunteth not itself (5736 ), is not puffed up (5743 ), * Doth not behave itself unseemly (5719 ), seeketh (5719 ) not her own , is not easily provoked (5743 ), thinketh (5736 ) no evil ; * Rejoiceth (5719 ) not in iniquity , but rejoiceth (5719 ) in the truth ; * Beareth (5719 ) all things , believeth (5719 ) all things , hopeth (5719 ) all things , endureth (5719 ) all things . * Charity never faileth (5719 ): but whether there be prophecies , they shall fail (5701 ); whether there be tongues , they shall cease (5695 ); whether there be knowledge , it shall vanish away (5701 ). * For we know (5719 ) in part , and we prophesy (5719 ) in part . * But when that which is perfect is come (5632 ), then that which is in part shall be done away (5701 ). * When I was (5713 ) a child , I spake (5707 ) as a child , I understood (5707 ) as a child , I thought (5711 ) as a child : but when I became (5754 ) a man , I put away (5758 ) childish things . * For now we see (5719 ) through a glass , darkly ; but then face to face : now I know (5719 ) in part ; but then shall I know (5695 ) even as also I am known (5681 ). * And now abideth (5719 ) faith , hope , charity , these three ; but the greatest of these is charity .
