3 And if I give out all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but do not have love, I am not profited at all.
4 Love is patient, is kind, love does not envy, love does not boast, is not puffed up,
5 does not behave indecently, does not seek its own, is not provoked, reckons not the evil,
6 does not rejoice over the unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth,
7 it covers all, believes all, expects all, endures all.
8 Love never fails. And whether there be prophecies, they shall be inactive; or tongues, they shall cease; or knowledge, it shall be inactive.
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part.
