4 Love has long patience, is kind; love is not emulous {of others}; love is not insolent and rash, is not puffed up,

5 does not behave in an unseemly manner, does not seek what is its own, is not quickly provoked, does not impute evil,

6 does not rejoice at iniquity but rejoices with the truth,

7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never fails; but whether prophecies, they shall be done away; or tongues, they shall cease; or knowledge, it shall be done away.

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。
