| New King James Version (NKJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. | 1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. |
