歌 林 多 前 书 1 Corinthians
13:1 我若能说世人和天使的方言,却没有爱,我就成了鸣的锣、响的钹一样。
13:2 我若有先知讲道的恩赐,也明白各样的奥秘,各样的知识;并且有全备的信,叫我能够移山,却没有爱,我就算不得什么。
13:3 我若把一切所有的分给人,又舍己身被人焚烧,却没有爱,对我仍然毫无益处。
13:4 爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈。爱是不嫉妒,不自夸,不张狂;
13:5 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;
13:6 不喜欢不义,只喜欢真理。
13:7 爱是凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐。
13:8 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。
13:9 因为我们现在所知道的,只是一部分;所讲的道也只是一部分;
13:10 等那完全的来到,这部分的就要过去了。
13:11 我作孩子的时候,说话像孩子,心思像孩子,想法像孩子,既然长大了,就把孩子的事都丢弃了。
13:12 我们现在是对着镜子观看,模糊不清,到那时就要面对面了。我现在所知道的只是一部分,到那时就完全知道了,好像主完全知道我一样。
13:13 现在常存的有信、望、爱这三样,其中最大的是爱。

13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
13:2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
13:3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
13:5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
13:9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
13:10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
13:12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |
