1 Corinthians 13

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs. Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Berean Standard Bible · public domain

Paul writes to a divided church and answers their argument with this paragraph. None of love's marks here are emotional — every one is a verb. The chapter is a portrait of Christ, recognizable line by line.
