| | | 15) | My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. |
| 16) | Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things. |
|
|
|
| | 7) | Whoso keepeth the law is a wise son: but he that is a companion of riotous men shameth his father. |
|
|
|
| | 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, Kindness, Love, Relationships, Children, Patience, Pride and Conceit |

|
| | 10) | Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom. |
|
|
|
| | 15) | And the mean man shall be brought down, and the mighty man shall be humbled, and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled: |
| 20) | Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! |
| 21) | Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! |
