13 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 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 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 is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues,they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

If I volunteer to serve but do not have love, I am only a person who tries to look good in front of others. 2 If I have the gift of serving and can help others with some problem, and if I have a life that others can trust, but do not have love, I am zero. 3 If I give all i have to the poor, and give my life for another ,but do not have love, I gain nothing.4 Love is resistant, love pleasant. It does not have jealousy , it does not glorify its self, it is not proud-heated . 5 Love does not fail, it is not selfish, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of . 6 Love does not delight in bad but rejoices in good.7 Love always keeps from harm, always believes, always desires, always carries on.8 Love never collapses. But where there are mysteries, they will disappear; where there are material things, they will be gone; where there is money, it will end. 9 For we inexperts, 10 but when perfection comes what is no perfect it will cease.11 When I was child i acted like a child , I spoke like a child. When I became a man, I left that aside 12 For now we see things imperfectly; then we shall like puzzling on a mirror. Now I know God; then I Follow him, even as I am a follower.13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
