1 Corinthians 13:1-6

NKJV

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 or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
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, but have not love, I am nothing.
2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
