(1) If I should speak in (the) tongue of the men and that of the angels, but I have not love, I was as a sounding brass or a clashing cymbal.	(1) Ἐὰν ταῖς γλώσσαις τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαλῶ καὶ τῶν ἀγγέλων, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, γέγονα χαλκὸς ἠχῶν ἢ κύμβαλον ἀλαλάζον.

(2) Even if I have [a] prophecy, knowing all the mysteries and all (the) knowledge; even if I have all (the) faith so as to remove mountains, but I have not love, I (am) nothing.	(2) καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω προφητείαν καὶ εἰδῶ τὰ μυστήρια πάντα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γνῶσιν, καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω πᾶσαν τὴν πίστιν ὥστε ὄρη μεθιστάναι, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐθέν εἰμι.

(3) Even if I should give all my (goods) to cause them to eat, and give my body also that I may boast, but I have not love, I gain nothing.	(3) καὶ ἐὰν ψωμίσω πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντά μου, καὶ ἐὰν παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου, ἵνα καυθήσομαι, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδὲν ὠφελοῦμαι.

(4) [The] love is longsuffering; hopeth; love envieth not; love is not puffed up; is not proud;	(4) Ἡ ἀγάπη μακροθυμεῖ, χρηστεύεται ἡ ἀγάπη, οὐ ζηλοῖ ἡ ἀγάπη, οὐ περπερεύεται, οὐ φυσιοῦται,

(5) is not put to shame; seeketh not for her own; is not angry; thinketh not the evil;	(5) οὐκ ἀσχημονεῖ, οὐ ζητεῖ τὰ ἑαυτῆς, οὐ παροξύνεται, οὐ λογίζεται τὸ κακόν,

(ⲍ̅) ϣⲁⲥⲱⲟⲩ ⲛ̀ϩⲏⲧ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϣⲁⲥⲛⲁϩϯ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϣⲁⲥⲉⲣϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ϣⲁⲥⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⲛ̀ⲧⲟⲧⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ	(ⲍ︦) ϣⲁⲥϥⲓ ϩⲁ ϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ. ϣⲁⲥⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ϣⲁⲥϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ϣⲁⲥϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅.	(7) is longsuffering in all things; believeth in all things; hopeth in all things: endureth in all things.	(7) πάντα στέγει, πάντα πιστεύει, πάντα ἐλπίζει, πάντα ὑπομένει.

(8) Love never falleth. Whether the prophecies--they will be done away; whether the tongues--they will cease; whether [a] knowledge--it will be done away.	(8) Ἡ ἀγάπη οὐδέποτε πίπτει. εἴτε δὲ προφητεῖαι, καταργηθήσονται· εἴτε γλῶσσαι, παύσονται· εἴτε γνῶσις, καταργηθήσεται.

(11) Being a child, I was speaking as a child, I was meditating as a child, I was thinking as a child, when I became man I did away the things of my childhood.	(11) ὅτε ἤμην νήπιος, ἐλάλουν ὡς νήπιος, ἐφρόνουν ὡς νήπιος, ἐλογιζόμην ὡς νήπιος· ὅτε γέγονα ἀνήρ, κατήργηκα τὰ τοῦ νηπίου.

(12) For we see now through a glass in a likeness, then we shall (lit. will) see face to face. I know now in [a] part; but then (lit. in the time) I shall (lit. will) know, according as I was known.	(12) βλέπομεν γὰρ ἄρτι διʼ ἐσόπτρου ἐν αἰνίγματι, τότε δὲ πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον· ἄρτι γινώσκω ἐκ μέρους, τότε δὲ ἐπιγνώσομαι καθὼς καὶ ἐπεγνώσθην.

(13) But now these three abide, (the) faith, [the] hope, (the) love; but the great among these is [the] love.
