Love: The Superior Way

13If I speak the languages of men and of angels, but do not have love, I am a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal.G1437G2980G1100G444G2532G32G1161G2192G3361G26G1096G2278G5475G2228G214G2950
2If I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so that I can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.G2532G1437G2192G4394G2532G1492G3956G3466G2532G3956G1108G2532G1437G2192G3956G4102G5620G3179G3735G1161G2192G3361G26G1510G3762
3And if I donate all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but do not have love, I gain nothing.G2532G1437G5595G3956G3450G5224G5595G2532G1437G3860G3450G4983G2443G2545G1161G2192G3361G26G5623G3762
4Love is patient; love is kind. Love does not envy; is not boastful; is not conceited;G26G3114G5541G26G2206G3756G26G4068G3756G4068G5448G3756G5448
5does not act improperly; is not selfish; is not provoked; does not keep a record of wrongs;G807G3756G807G2212G3756G1438G3947G3756G3947G3049G3756G2556
6finds no joy in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth;G5463G3756G1909G93G1161G4796G225
7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.G4722G3956G4100G3956G1679G3956G5278G3956
8Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for languages, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end.G26G3763G1601G1161G1535G4394G2673G1535G1100G3973G1535G1108G2673
9For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.G1063G1097G1537G3313G2532G4395G1537G3313
10But when the perfect comes, the partial will come to an end.G1161G3752G5046G2064G5119G1537G3313G2673
11When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put aside childish things.G3753G2252G3516G2980G5613G3516G5426G5613G3516G3049G5613G3516G1161G3753G1096G435G2673G3516
12For now we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, as I am fully known.G1063G737G991G1223G2072G1722G135G1161G5119G4383G4314G4383G737G1097G1537G3313G1161G5119G1921G2531G2532G1921
13Now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.G1161G3570G3306G4102G1680G26G5023G5140G1161G3187G5130G26
