1 Corinthians 13:3-5
New Testament for Everyone
1 Corinthians 13:3-5
New Testament for Everyone
3 If I give
all my possessions to the poor, and, for pride’s sake,
my very body, but do not have love,
it’s useless to me.
4 Love’s great-hearted; love is kind,
knows no jealousy, makes no fuss,
is not puffed up, 5 no shameless ways,
doesn’t force its rightful claim,
doesn’t rage or bear a grudge,
1 Corinthians 13:3-5
New International Version
