| | 13:1 | 我若能說萬人的方言、並天使的話語、卻沒有愛、我就成了鳴的鑼、響的鈸一般。 | Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. |
| | 13:2 | 我若有先知講道之能、也明白各樣的奧秘、各樣的知識．而且有全備的信、叫我能夠移山、卻沒有愛、我就算不得甚麼。 | And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. |
| | 13:3 | 我若將所有的賙濟窮人、又捨己身叫人焚燒、卻沒有愛、仍然與我無益。 | And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. |
| | 13:4 | 愛是恆久忍耐、又有恩慈．愛是不嫉妒．愛是不自誇．不張狂． | Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, |
| | 13:5 | 不作害羞的事．不求自己的益處．不輕易發怒．不計算人的惡． | Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; |
| | 13:6 | 不喜歡不義．只喜歡真理． | Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; |
| | 13:7 | 凡事包容．凡事相信．凡事盼望．凡事忍耐。 | Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. |
| | 13:8 | 愛是永不止息．先知講道之能、終必歸於無有．說方言之能、終必停止、知識也終必歸於無有。 | Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. |
| | 13:9 | 我們現在所知道的有限、先知所講的也有限． | For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. |
| | 13:10 | 等那完全的來到、這有限的必歸於無有了。 | But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. |
| | 13:11 | 我作孩子的時候、話語像孩子、心思像孩子、意念像孩子．既成了人、就把孩子的事丟棄了。 | When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. |
| | 13:12 | 我們如今彷彿對着鏡子觀看、模糊不清．〔模糊不清原文作如同猜謎〕到那時、就要面對面了．我如今所知道的有限．到那時就全知道、如同主知道我一樣。 | For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. |
| | 13:13 | 如今常存的有信、有望、有愛、這三樣、其中最大的是愛。 | And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |
