and have not LOVE,
I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
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 LOVE,
I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not LOVE,
it profiteth me nothing.
And now abideth faith, hope, LOVE, these three; but the greatest of these is LOVE. 1Corinthians 13:1-3,13
