If I may speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not divine love, I have become a sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
2 ⲃ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ ⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ. ⲧⲁⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲙ̅ⲙⲩⲥⲧⲏⲣⲓⲟⲛ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲙⲛ̅ⲡⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ⲕⲁⲛ ⲉⲩⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ̅ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲉⲡⲉⲛⲉⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲛⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲗⲁⲁⲩ.
And if I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, and have not divine love, I am nothing.
3 ⲅ̅ ⲕⲁⲛ ⲉⲓ̈ϣⲁⲛⲧⲙ̅ⲙⲟ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁϩⲩⲡⲁⲣⲭⲟⲛⲧⲁ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲧⲁϯ ⲙ̅ⲡⲁⲥⲱⲙⲁ ϫⲉ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⲙ̅ⲙⲟⲓ̈ ⲉⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲁⲓ̈ⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲇⲉ ⲙ̅ⲙⲁⲩ ⲛ̅ϯⲛⲁϯϩⲏⲩ ⲁⲛ ⲛ̅ⲗⲁⲁⲩ.
And if I give all my goods to feed the poor, and if I may give my body that I shall be burnt, and have not divine love, I am profited as to nothing.
4 ⲇ̅ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ϣⲁⲥϩⲣⲟϣ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ. ϣⲁⲥⲣ̅ⲭⲣⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ. ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙⲉⲥⲕⲱϩ. ⲙⲉⲥⲣ̅ⲡⲉⲣⲡⲉⲣⲟⲥ. ⲙⲉⲥϫⲓⲥⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲏⲧ.
Divine love suffers long; divine love is kind; divine love envies not; does not make a display of itself, is not puffed up,
5 ⲉ̅ ⲙⲉⲥⲁⲥⲭⲩⲙⲟⲛⲓ. ⲙⲉⲥϣⲓⲛⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲁⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩⲥ ⲛⲉ. ⲙⲉⲥⲛⲟⲩϭⲥ̅ ⲙⲉⲥⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲡⲉⲑⲟⲟⲩ.
does not behave itself uncomely, seeks not its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;
6 ⲋ̅ ⲙⲉⲥⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲉϫⲙ̅ⲡϫⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲟⲛⲥ̅. ϣⲁⲥⲣⲁϣⲉ ⲛ̅ⲧⲟϥ ⲙⲛ̅ⲧⲙⲉ.
it does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices in the truth;
7 ⲍ̅ ϣⲁⲥϥⲓ ϩⲁϩⲱⲃ ⲛⲓⲙ. ϣⲁⲥⲡⲓⲥⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ϣⲁⲥϩⲉⲗⲡⲓⲍⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅. ϣⲁⲥϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲓⲛⲉ ⲉⲡⲧⲏⲣϥ̅.
it bears all things, it believes all things, it hopes all things, it endures all things.
8 ⲏ̅ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲙⲉⲥϩⲉ ⲉⲛⲉϩ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲓⲁ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ̅. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲥⲡⲉ. ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲗⲟ. ⲉⲓⲧⲉ ⲛ̅ⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ̅.
Divine love never falls: but whether there are prophecies, they shall be done away; whether there are tongues, they shall cease; whether there is knowledge, it shall vanish away.
9 ⲑ̅ ⲉⲛⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲉⲛⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲉⲩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ.
For we know in part, and prophesy in part:
10 ⲓ̅ ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϣⲁⲛⲉⲓ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲡϫⲱⲕ ⲡⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙ̅ⲡⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ̅.
but when the perfect may come, that which is in part shall be done away.
11 ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ ⲙ̅ⲡⲉⲩⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲉⲓ̈ⲟ ⲛ̅ⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈. ⲛⲉⲉⲓϣⲁϫⲉ ⲡⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈ ⲛⲉⲓ̈ⲙⲉⲉⲩⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈. ⲛⲉⲓ̈ϣⲟϫⲛⲉ ϩⲱⲥ ⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈. ⲛ̅ⲧⲉⲣⲓⲣ̅ⲛⲟϭ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲓ̈ⲟⲩⲱⲥϥ̅ ⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲡⲕⲟⲩⲓ̈.
When I was an infant, I talked like an infant, I thought like an infant, I reasoned like an infant: when I became a man, I put away the things of the infant.
12 ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⲧⲛ̅ⲛⲁⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϩⲓⲧⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲉⲓⲁⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩϩⲣ̅ⲃ ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲛ̅ϩⲟ ϩⲓϩⲟ. ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲓ̈ⲉⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ̅ⲟⲩⲙⲉⲣⲟⲥ. ⲙⲛ̅ⲛ̅ⲥⲱⲥ ⲇⲉ ϯⲛⲁⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲕⲁⲧⲁⲑⲉ ⲟⲛ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲥⲟⲩⲱⲛⲧ.
For we now see through a mirror in an enigma; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know perfectly even as I am perfectly known.
13 ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ ⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩ ϭⲉ ⲥϣⲟⲟⲡ ⲛ̅ϭⲓⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ. ⲑⲉⲗⲡⲓⲥ. ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ. ⲡⲉⲉⲓϣⲟⲙⲛⲧ̅. ⲧⲛⲟϭ ⲇⲉ ⲉⲛⲁⲓ̈ ⲧⲉ ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ.
But now abide faith, hope, divine love, these three; but the greatest of these is divine love.
