1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak with the tongues of humans and of angels, but do not have love, I am a noisy gong, or a clanging cymbal.
| ܐܢ ܒܟܠ ܠܫܢ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܐܡܠܠ ܘܒܕܡܠܐܟܐ ܘܚܘܒܐ ܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܝ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܝ ܢܚܫܐ ܕܙܐܡ ܐܘ ܨܨܠܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܩܠܐ |
2 If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
| ܘܐܢ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܝ ܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܘܐܕܥ ܐܪܙܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܟܠܗ ܝܕܥܬܐ ܘܐܢ ܬܗܘܐ ܒܝ ܟܠܗ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܛܘܪܐ ܐܫܢܐ ܘܚܘܒܐ ܠܝܬ ܒܝ ܠܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܕܡ |
3 If I dole out all my goods to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.
| ܘܐܢ ܐܘܟܠ ܟܠ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܐܢ ܐܫܠܡ ܦܓܪܝ ܕܢܐܩܕ ܘܚܘܒܐ ܠܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܒܝ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܝܬܪ ܐܢܐ |
4 Love is patient and is kind; love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud,
| ܚܘܒܐ ܢܓܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܪܘܚܗ ܘܒܤܝܡ ܚܘܒܐ ܠܐ ܚܤܡ ܚܘܒܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܬܓܫ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܚܬܪ |
5 does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not irritable, does not keep a record of wrongs;
| ܘܠܐ ܤܥܪ ܕܒܗܬܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܒܥܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܬܦܝܪ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܪܥܐ ܕܒܝܫ |
6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
| ܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܒܥܘܠܐ ܐܠܐ ܚܕܐ ܒܩܘܫܬܐ |
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
| ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܡܤܝܒܪ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܟܠ ܡܤܒܪ ܟܠ ܤܒܠ |
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are tongues, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.
| ܚܘܒܐ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܠܐ ܢܦܠ ܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܢܬܒܛܠܢ ܘܠܫܢܐ ܢܫܬܬܩܘܢ ܘܝܕܥܬܐ ܬܬܒܛܠ |
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part;
| ܩܠܝܠ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܤܓܝ ܝܕܥܝܢܢ ܘܩܠܝܠ ܡܢ ܤܓܝ ܡܬܢܒܝܢܢ |
10 but when that which is complete has come, that which is partial will be done away with.
| ܐܡܬܝ ܕܝܢ ܕܬܐܬܐ ܓܡܝܪܘܬܐ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܢܬܒܛܠ ܗܘ ܡܕܡ ܕܩܠܝܠ ܗܘܐ |
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become an adult, I have put away childish things.
| ܟܕ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܐܝܟ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܡܡܠܠ ܗܘܝܬ ܘܐܝܟ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܡܬܪܥܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܘܐܝܟ ܝܠܘܕܐ ܡܬܚܫܒ ܗܘܝܬ ܟܕ ܗܘܝܬ ܕܝܢ ܓܒܪܐ ܒܛܠܬ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܛܠܝܘܬܐ |
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.
| ܗܫܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܒܡܚܙܝܬܐ ܚܙܝܢܢ ܒܦܠܐܬܐ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܦܝܢ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܐܦܝܢ ܗܫܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܡܢ ܤܓܝ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܕܥ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܝܕܥܬ |
13 But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܬܠܬ ܕܡܟܬܪܢ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܘܤܒܪܐ ܘܚܘܒܐ ܕܪܒ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܗܝܢ ܚܘܒܐ |
