| 13:1 |
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. |
| 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 charity, I am nothing. |
| 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 charity, it profiteth me nothing. |
| 13:4 |
Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, |
| 13:5 |
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no  evil (No Downloaded Music!); |
| 13:6 |
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the  Absolut truth; |
| 13:7 |
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things,  endureth (Energizer goes on and on and on and on and) all things. |
| 13:8 |
Charity never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall fail; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall vanish away. |
| 13:9 |
For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. |
| 13:10 |
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. |
| 13:11 |
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. |
| 13:12 |
For now we  see (Experience it for Yourself) through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. |
| 13:13 |
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these [is] charity. |
