歌林多前書13:1-13
1我若能说万人的方言,并天使的话语,却没有爱,我就成了鸣的锣,响的钹一般。
2我若有先知讲道之能,也明白各样的奥秘,各样的知识,而且有全备的信,叫我能够移山,却没有爱,我就算不得甚麽。
3我若将所有的周济穷人,又舍己身叫人焚烧,却没有爱,仍然与我无益。
4爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈;爱是不嫉妒;爱是不自夸,不张狂,
5不做害羞的事,不求自己的益处,不轻易发怒,不计算人的恶,
6不喜欢不义,只喜欢真理;
7凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐。
8爱是永不止息。先知讲道之能终必归於无有;说方言之能终必停止;知识也终必归於无有。
9我们现在所知道的有限,先知所讲的也有限,
10等那完全的来到,这有限的必归於无有了。
11我作孩子的时候,话语像孩子,心思像孩子,意念像孩子,既成了人,就把孩子的事丢弃了。
12我们如今彷佛对着镜子观看,?糊不清(原文作:如同猜谜);到那时就要面对面了。我如今所知道的有限,到那时就全知道,如同主知道我一样。
13如今常存的有信,有望,有爱这三样,其中最大的是爱。
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
Love Is the Greatest
13 If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing. 3 If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it;[a] but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
8 Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages[b] and special knowledge will become useless. But love will last forever! 9 Now our knowledge is partial and incomplete, and even the gift of prophecy reveals only part of the whole picture! 10 But when the time of perfection comes, these partial things will become useless.
11 When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. 12 Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity.[c] All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.
13 Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.
