If I give away everything to feed the poor
and hand over my body to be burned,
but do not have love,
I achieve nothing.
and hand over my body to be burned,
but do not have love,
I achieve nothing.
If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.
If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing.
If I give away all my possessions, and if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.
