Corinthios I 13

Clementine Vulgate, 1598
Berean Standard Bible
1Si linguis hominum loquar, et angelorum, caritatem autem non habeam, factus sum velut æs sonans, aut cymbalum tinniens.
1If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a ringing gong or a clanging cymbal.
2Et si habuero prophetiam, et noverim mysteria omnia, et omnem scientiam: et si habuero omnem fidem ita ut montes transferam, caritatem autem non habuero, nihil sum.
2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have absolute faith so as to move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3Et si distribuero in cibos pauperum omnes facultates meas, et si tradidero corpus meum ita ut ardeam, caritatem autem non habuero, nihil mihi prodest.
3If I give all I possess to the poor and exult in the surrender of my body, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4Caritas patiens est, benigna est. Caritas non æmulatur, non agit perperam, non inflatur,
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5non est ambitiosa, non quærit quæ sua sunt, non irritatur, non cogitat malum,
5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs.
6non gaudet super iniquitate, congaudet autem veritati:
6Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth.
7omnia suffert, omnia credit, omnia sperat, omnia sustinet.
7It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8Caritas numquam excidit: sive prophetiæ evacuabuntur, sive linguæ cessabunt, sive scientia destruetur.
8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be restrained; where there is knowledge, it will be dismissed.
9Ex parte enim cognoscimus, et ex parte prophetamus.
9For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
10Cum autem venerit quod perfectum est, evacuabitur quod ex parte est.
10but when the perfect comes, the partial passes away.
11Cum essem parvulus, loquebar ut parvulus, sapiebam ut parvulus, cogitabam ut parvulus. Quando autem factus sum vir, evacuavi quæ erant parvuli.
11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside childish ways.
12Videmus nunc per speculum in ænigmate: tunc autem facie ad faciem. Nunc cognosco ex parte: tunc autem cognoscam sicut et cognitus sum.
12Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13Nunc autem manent fides, spes, caritas, tria hæc: major autem horum est caritas.
13And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is love.
