2 If I have the gift of prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains but have not love, I am nothing.
3 If I give away all that I own and if I hand over my body so I might boast but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not brag, it is not puffed up,
5 it does not behave inappropriately, it does not seek its own way, it is not provoked, it keeps no account of wrong,
6 it does not rejoice over injustice but rejoices in the truth;
7 it bears all things, it believes all things, it hopes all things, it endures all things.
8 Love never fails— but where there are prophecies, they will pass away; where there are tongues, they will cease; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
