Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.

Many waters cannot quench love, Neither can the floods drown it: If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, It would utterly be contemned.

For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

(for we walk by faith, not by sight:)

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give ; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
