4 Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, 5 doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; 6 doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.

4 爱是恒久忍耐, 又有恩慈。爱是不嫉妒, 不自夸, 不张狂;

5 不作失礼的事, 不求自己的益处, 不轻易动怒, 不计较人的过犯;

6 不喜欢不义, 只喜欢真理。

7 爱是凡事包容, 凡事相信, 凡事盼望, 凡事忍耐。

8 爱是永存不息的。先知的讲道终必过去, 方言终必停止, 知识终必消失。
