For we (A)know in part and prophesy in part; 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away with. 11 When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I [a]became a man, I did away with childish things. 12 For now we (B)see in a mirror [b]dimly, but then (C)face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully, just as I also (D)have been fully known. 13 But now faith, hope, and love remain, these three; but the [c]greatest of these is (E)love.

  1. 1 Corinthians 13:11 Lit have become...have done away with
  2. 1 Corinthians 13:12 Lit in a riddle
  3. 1 Corinthians 13:13 Lit greater

For we know in part(A) and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes,(B) what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood(C) behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror;(D) then we shall see face to face.(E) Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.(F)

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.(G) But the greatest of these is love.(H)

11 And He (A)gave (B)some as apostles, some as prophets, some as (C)evangelists, some as [a]pastors and (D)teachers, 12 (E)for the equipping of the [b]saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of (F)the body of Christ; 13 until we all attain to (G)the unity of the faith, and of the [c](H)knowledge of the Son of God, to a (I)mature man, to the measure of the stature [d]which belongs to the (J)fullness of Christ. 14 [e]As a result, we are (K)no longer to be children, (L)tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of people, by (M)craftiness [f]in (N)deceitful scheming; 15 but [g]speaking the truth (O)in love, [h]we are to (P)grow up in all aspects into Him who is the (Q)head, that is, Christ, 16 from whom (R)the whole body, being fitted and held together [i]by what every joint supplies, according to the [j]proper working of each individual part, causes the growth of the body for the building up of itself (S)in love.

11 So Christ himself gave(A) the apostles,(B) the prophets,(C) the evangelists,(D) the pastors and teachers,(E) 12 to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ(F) may be built up(G) 13 until we all reach unity(H) in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God(I) and become mature,(J) attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.(K)

14 Then we will no longer be infants,(L) tossed back and forth by the waves,(M) and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.(N) 15 Instead, speaking the truth in love,(O) we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head,(P) that is, Christ. 16 From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows(Q) and builds itself up(R) in love,(S) as each part does its work.
