1 Corinthians 13:3-8

New International Version

³ If I give all I possess to the poor^(A) and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,^[a](B) but do not have love, I gain nothing.

⁴ Love is patient,^(C) love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.^{(D) 5} It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking,^(E) it is not easily angered,^(F) it keeps no record of wrongs.^{(G) 6} Love does not delight in evil^(H) but rejoices with the truth.^{(I) 7} It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.^(J)

⁸ Love never fails. But where there are prophecies,^(K) they will cease; where there are tongues,^(L) they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
