1. If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels but have not love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
2. If I have the gift of prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains but have not love, I am nothing.
3. If I give away all that I own and if I hand over my body so I might boast but have not love, I gain nothing.
4. Love is patient, love is kind, it does not envy, it does not brag, it is not puffed up,
5. it does not behave inappropriately, it does not seek its own way, it is not provoked, it keeps no account of wrong,
