Does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
不作害羞的事，不求自己的益處，不輕易發怒，不計算人的惡，
Does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
不喜歡不義，只喜歡真理;
Bears all things, believe that things, hopes all things, endures all things.
凡事包容，凡事相信，凡事盼望，凡事忍耐。
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to the burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
我若將所有的賑濟窮人，又捨身叫人焚燒，卻沒有愛，仍然與我無益。
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
愛是恆久忍耐，又有恩慈;愛是不嫉妒;愛是不自誇，不張狂;
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding braor a clangin cymbal.
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.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and the understanding all my misteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could I remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
我若有先知講道之能，也明白各樣的奧祕，各樣的知識，而且有全備的信念，叫我能夠移山，卻沒有愛，我就不算的什麼。
