| | | | 21) | He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he. |
|
|
|
| | 17) | The merciful man doeth good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubleth his own flesh. |
|
|
|
| | 10) | A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked are cruel. |
|
|
|
| | 8) | Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous: |
| 9) | Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. |
|
|
|
| | 1) | 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. |
| 2) | 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. |
| 3) | 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. |
| 4) | Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, |
| 5) | Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; |
| 6) | Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; |
| 7) | Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. |
| 8) | 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. |
| 9) | For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. |
| 10) | But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. |
| 11) | 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. |
| 12) | 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) | And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. |
| This promise is also in: Conflict, Giving and Generosity, Duty to the Poor, Hope, Fellowship, God, Love, Relationships, Children, Wisdom & Discernment, Patience, Pride and Conceit |
