고린도전서 13
Korean Living Bible
사랑
13 내가 사람의 방언과 천사의 말을 하더라도 사랑이 없으면 소리나는 놋쇠와 울리는 꽹과리에 지나지 않습니다.
2 내가 예언하는 능력을 가졌고 온갖 신비한 것과 모든 지식을 이해하고 산을 옮길 만한 믿음을 가졌다 하더라도 사랑이 없으면 아무것도 아닙니다.
3 내가 가지고 있는 모든 것을 가난한 사람들에게 나눠 주고 또 내 몸을 [a]불사르게 내어준다고 해도 사랑이 없으면 그것이 나에게 아무 유익이 되지 않습니다.
4 사랑은 오래 참고 친절하며 질투하지 않고 자랑하지 않으며 잘난 체하지 않습니다.
5 사랑은 버릇없이 행동하지 않고 이기적이거나 성내지 않으며 악한 것을 생각하지 않습니다.
6 사랑은 불의를 기뻐하지 않고 진리와 함께 기뻐합니다.
7 사랑은 모든 것을 참으며 모든 것을 믿으며 모든 것을 바라고 모든 것을 견딥니다.
8 사랑은 결코 없어지지 않습니다. 그러나 예언도 없어지고 방언도 그치고 지식도 사라질 것입니다.
9 우리가 부분적으로 알고 부분적으로 예언하지만
10 완전한 것이 올 때에는 부분적인 것이 없어질 것입니다.
11 내가 어렸을 때에는 어린 아이처럼 말하고 생각하고 판단하였으나 어른이 되어서는 어렸을 때의 일을 버렸습니다.
12 우리가 지금은 거울을 보는 것같이 희미하게 보지만 그 때에는 얼굴과 얼굴을 맞대고 볼 것이며 지금은 내가 부분적으로 알지만 그 때에는 하나님이 나를 아신 것처럼 내가 완전하게 알게 될 것입니다.
13 그러므로 믿음, 희망, 사랑, 이 세 가지는 항상 남아 있을 것이며 그 중에 제일 큰 것은 사랑입니다.

- 13:3 어떤 사본에는 ‘자랑하기 위해’
1 Corinthians 13
King James Version
13 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.
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.
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.
4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth 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.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
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.
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 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
1 Corinthians 13
New King James Version
The Greatest Gift
13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of (A)prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, (B)so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And (C)though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body [a]to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
4 (D)Love suffers long and is (E)kind; love (F)does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not [b]puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, (G)does not seek its own, is not provoked, [c]thinks no evil; 6 (H)does not rejoice in iniquity, but (I)rejoices in the truth; 7 (J)bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. 9 (K)For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is [d]perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For (L)now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then (M)face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.
13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
