King James Version	New Revised Standard Version
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.	IF I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
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.	2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
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.	3 If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,	4 Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;	5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;	6 it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.	7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
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.	8 Love never ends. But as for prophecies, they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.	9 For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part;
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.	10 but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end.
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.	11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became an adult, I put an end to childish ways.
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.	12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face. Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known.
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.	13 And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

MAIN THOUGHT: And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. (1 Corinthians 13:13, KJV)
