CHAPTER 13

| 1 | εαν |  | ταις |  | γλωσσαις |  | των |  | ανθρωπων |  | λαλω |  | και |  | των |  | αγγελων |  | αγαπην |
|  | If |  | with the |  | tongues |  | ♦ |  | of men |  | I speak |  | and |  | ♦ |  | of angels, |  | but love |

δε |  | μη |  | εχω |  | γεγονα |  | χαλκος |  | ηχων |  | η |  | κυμβαλον |  | αλαλαζον |  |
♦ |  | have not, |  | ♦ |  | I have become |  | brass 2 |  | sounding 1 |  | or |  | a cymbal 2 |  | clanging. 1 |  |

| 2 | και |  | εαν |  | εχω |  | προφητειαν |  | και |  | ειδω |  | τα |  | μυστηρια |  | παντα |  | και |  | πασαν |  | την |
|  | And |  | if |  | I have |  | prophecy, |  | and |  | know |  | ♦ |  | mysteries 2 |  | all 1 |  | and |  | all |  | ♦ |

γνωσιν |  | και |  | εαν |  | εχω |  | πασαν |  | την |  | πιστιν |  | ωστε |  | ορη |  | μεθιστανειν |
knowledge, |  | and |  | if |  | I have |  | all |  | ♦ |  | faith, |  | so as |  | mountains |  | to remove, |

αγαπην |  | δε |  | μη |  | εχω |  | ουθεν |  | ειμι |  |
but love |  | ♦ |  | have not, |  | ♦ |  | nothing |  | I am. |  |

| 3 | και |  | εαν |  | ψωμισω |  | παντα |  | τα |  | υπαρχοντα |  | μου |  | και |  | εαν |  | παραδω |  | το
|  | And |  | if |  | I give away in food |  | all |  | ♦ |  | my goods, |  | ♦ |  | and |  | if |  | I deliver up |  | my body

| σωμα |  | μου |  | ινα |  | καυθησωμαι |  | αγαπην |  | δε |  | μη |  | εχω |  | ουδεν |  | ωφελουμαι |  |
| ♦ |  | ♦ |  | that |  | I may be burned, |  | but love |  | ♦ |  | have not, |  | ♦ |  | nothing |  | I am profited. |  |

| 4 | η |  | αγαπη |  | μακροθυμει |  | χρηστευεται |  | η |  | αγαπη |  | ου |  | ζηλοι |  | η |  | αγαπη |
|  | ♦ |  | Love |  | has patience, |  | is kind; |  | ♦ |  | love |  | is not envious; |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |  | love |

ου |  | περπερευεται |  | ου |  | φυσιουται |  |
not 2 |  | is vain-glorious, 1 |  | is not puffed up, |  | ♦ |  |

| 5 | ουκ |  | ασχημονει |  | ου |  | ζητει |  | τα |  | εαυτης |
|  | acts not unseemly, |  | ♦ |  | seeks not |  | ♦ |  | the things |  | of its own, |

ου |  | παροξυνεται |  | ου |  | λογιζεται |  | το |  | κακον |  |
is not quickly provoked, |  | ♦ |  | reckons not |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |  | evil, |  |

| 6 | ου |  | χαιρει |  | επι |  | τη |  | αδικια |  | συγχαιρει |  | δε |  | τη |  | αληθεια |  |
|  | rejoices not |  | ♦ |  | at |  | ♦ |  | unrighteousness, |  | but rejoices with |  | ♦ |  | the |  | truth; |  |

| 7 | παντα |  | στεγει |  | παντα |  | πιστευει |  | παντα |  | ελπιζει |  | παντα |  | υπομενει |  |
|  | all things |  | covers, |  | all things |  | believes, |  | all things |  | hopes, |  | all things |  | endures. |  |

| 8 | η |  | αγαπη |  | ουδεποτε |  | εκπιπτει |  | ειτε |  | δε |  | προφητειαι |  | καταργηθησονται |
|  | ♦ |  | Love |  | never |  | fails; |  | but whether |  | ♦ |  | prophesies, |  | they shall be done away; |

ειτε |  | γλωσσαι |  | παυσονται |  | ειτε |  | γνωσις |  | καταργηθησεται |  |
whether |  | tongues, |  | they shall cease; |  | whether |  | knowledge |  | it shall be done away. |  |

| 9 | εκ |  | μερους |  | γαρ |  | γινωσκομεν |  | και |  | εκ |  | μερους |  | προφητευομεν |  |
|  | For in part |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |  | we know, |  | and |  | in |  | part |  | we prophesy; |  |

| 10 | οταν |  | δε |  | ελθη |  | το |  | τελειον |  | τοτε |  | το |  | εκ |  | μερους |  | καταργηθησεται
|  | but when |  | ♦ |  | may come |  | that which |  | is perfect, |  | then |  | that |  | in |  | part |  | shall be done away.

| 11 | οτε |  | ημην |  | νηπιος |  | ως |  | νηπιος |  | ελαλουν |  | ως |  | νηπιος |  | εφρονουν |  | ως |  | νηπιος |
|  | When |  | I was |  | an infant, |  | as |  | an infant |  | I spoke, |  | as |  | an infant |  | I thought, |  | as |  | an infant |

ελογιζομην |  | οτε |  | δε |  | γεγονα |  | ανηρ |  | κατηργηκα |  | τα |  | του |  | νηπιου |  |
I reasoned; |  | but when |  | ♦ |  | I became |  | a man, |  | I did away with |  | the things |  | of the |  | infant. |  |

| 12 | βλεπομεν |  | γαρ |  | αρτι |  | δι |  | εσοπτρου |  | εν |  | αινιγματι |  | τοτε |  | δε |  | προσωπον |
|  | For we see |  | ♦ |  | now |  | through |  | a glass |  | ♦ |  | obscurely, |  | but then |  | ♦ |  | face |

προς |  | προσωπον |  | αρτι |  | γινωσκω |  | εκ |  | μερους |  | τοτε |  | δε |  | επιγνωσομαι |
to |  | face; |  | now |  | I know |  | in |  | part, |  | but then |  | ♦ |  | I shall know |

καθως |  | και |  | επεγνωσθην |  |
according as |  | also |  | I have been fully known. |  |

| 13 | νυνι |  | δε |  | μενει |  | πιστις |  | ελπις |  | αγαπη |  | τα |  | τρια |  | ταυτα |
|  | And now |  | ♦ |  | abides |  | faith, |  | hope, |  | love; |  | these three things; |  | ♦ |  | ♦ |

μειζων |  | δε |  | τουτων |  | η |  | αγαπη |  |
but the greater |  | ♦ |  | of these [is] |  | ♦ |  | love. |  |
