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 Charity suffers long [and] is benign; charity envies not; charity does [nothing] without due reason, is not puffed up,

5 is not injurious, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil,

6 rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

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

8 Charity is never lost, but prophecies shall come to an end, tongues shall cease, and knowledge shall come to an end.
