- And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
- Above all, maintain constant love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins.
- Let all that you do be done in love.
- Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful.
- Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.
- Shun youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
- If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
- Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
- 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.
- We must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters, as is right, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of everyone of you for one another is increasing.
- And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
- So whenever you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
- For this very reason, you must make every effort to support your faith with goodness, and goodness with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with endurance, and endurance with godliness, and godliness with mutual affection, and mutual affection with love.
- Some take pride in chariots, and some in horses,
but our pride is in the name of the Lord our God.
One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and one whose temper is controlled than one who captures a city.
