哥林多前書 13
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
愛——極其高超的道
13 如果我能說人間和天使的各種殊言[a]，卻沒有愛，
我就成了嘈雜的鑼、鳴響的鈸；
2 如果我有做先知傳道[b]的恩賜[c]，
也明白一切奧祕、一切知識，
並有全備的信，以致能移山，
卻沒有愛，我就一無所是；
3 即使我把自己所擁有的一切分給窮人，
又捨棄自己的身體被人焚燒[d]，
卻沒有愛，對我也毫無益處。
4 愛是恆久忍耐，又是仁慈；
愛是不嫉妒；
愛是不自誇、不自大；
5 不做不合宜的事，不求自己的益處，
不輕易動怒，不計算人的惡，
6 不為不義歡喜，而與真理同樂；
7 凡事包容，凡事相信，
凡事盼望，凡事忍耐。
8 愛是永不止息；
而做先知傳道[e]的恩賜[f]將被廢除，
殊言也將會停止，
知識也將被廢除，
9 因為我們所知道的有限，
我們做先知所傳的[g]也有限；
10 但那完全的來到時，
這有限的[h]就將被廢除。
11 當我做孩子的時候，說話像孩子，
心思像孩子，想法像孩子；
當我成人以後，就把那些屬孩子的事都廢除了；
12 如今我們對著鏡子觀看，模糊不清，
但那時候就要面對面了；
如今我所知道的有限，
但那時候就要完全知道了，就像我已經被完全知道那樣；
13 所以現在常存的有信、望、愛這三樣；
而其中更大的是愛。

1 Corinthians 13
English Standard Version
The Way of Love
13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have (A)prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, (B)so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 (C)If I give away all I have, and (D)if I deliver up my body to be burned,[a] but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 (E)Love is patient and (F)kind; love (G)does not envy or boast; it (H)is not arrogant 5 or rude. It (I)does not insist on its own way; it (J)is not irritable or resentful;[b] 6 it (K)does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but (L)rejoices with the truth. 7 (M)Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, (N)endures all things.
8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For (O)we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but (P)when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For (Q)now we see in a mirror dimly, but (R)then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as (S)I have been fully known.
13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
