If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
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 do not have love, I am nothing.
And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,
does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,

我若能說萬人的方言、並天使的話語、卻沒有愛、我就成了鳴的鑼、響的鈸一般。
我若有先知講道之能、也明白各樣的奧秘、各樣的知識.而且有全備的信、叫我能彀移山、卻沒有愛、我就算不得甚麼。
我若將所有的賙濟窮人、又捨己身叫人焚燒、卻沒有愛、仍然與我無益。
愛是恆久忍耐、又有恩慈.愛是不嫉妒.愛是不自誇.不張狂.
不作害羞的事.不求自己的益處.不輕易發怒.不計算人的惡.
