< 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.
A sị na m na-asụ asụsụ dị iche iche nke ndị mmadụ maọbụ nke ndị mmụọ ozi, ma ahụghị m mmadụ ibe m nʼanya, abụ m naanị ogene na-eme ụzụ maọbụ mbadamba efere na-ada ụda.
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.
A sịkwa na m nwere onyinye ibu amụma, bụrụ onye pụrụ ikwu ihe niile gaje ime nʼoge dị nʼihu, na onye maara ihe niile, a sịkwa na m nwere okwukwe nke m pụrụ isite na ya nye ugwu buru ibu iwu sị ya site nʼebe ọ nọ gaa nʼebe ọzọ, ma ahụghị m mmadụ ibe m nʼanya, abụghị m ihe ọbụla.
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.
A sịkwa na m ewere ihe niile m nwere nye ndị ogbenye, werekwa anụ ahụ m nye ka ere ya ọkụ nʼihi ka m nyaa isi, ihe ndị a niile abaghị uru, ma m enweghị ịhụnanya.
4 Love is patient and is kind; love does not envy. Love does not brag, is not proud,
Ịhụnanya na-enwe ogologo ntachiobi, na-enwekwa obi ebere. Ọ dịghị ekwo ekworo, ọ naghị enwe anya ukwu, ọ naghị anya isi. Ọ nakwaghị ebuli onwe ya elu.
5 does not behave itself inappropriately, does not seek its own way, is not irritable, does not keep a record of wrongs;
Ọ naghị eme ihe na-akpasu iwe, ọ naghị achọ ihe nke naanị ya, ọ naghị ewe iwe ọsịịsọ. Ọ nakwaghị agụkọ ihe ọjọọ niile e mere ya.
6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
Ọ dịghị aṅụrị ọṅụ nʼihe ọjọọ, kama ọ na-aṅụrị nʼeziokwu.
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Ọ na-edi ihe niile, ọ na-ekwerekwa ihe niile, ọ na-enwekwa olileanya na-anagide ihe ọbụla dapụtara.
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.
Ịhụnanya adịghị agwụ agwụ. Ma ibu amụma niile ga-emesịa kwụsị, onyinye ịsụ asụsụ dị iche iche ga-akwụsịkwa. Otu a, ihe ọmụma niile ga-agabiga.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part;
Nʼihi na ọmụma anyị ezughị oke, ibu amụma anyị ezukwaghị oke.
10 but when that which is complete has come, that which is partial will be done away with.
Ma mgbe anyị ruru nʼizuoke, ezughị oke agaghị adịkwa.
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.
Mgbe m bụ nwata, ekwuru m okwu dịka nwata, echiche m niile bụ echiche nwata. Izuzu obi m niile bụkwa nke nwata. Ma mgbe m toro ghọọ dimkpa, adịghịkwa m akpa agwa dịka nwata ọzọ.
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.
Ugbu a, anyị na-ahụ inyogho inyogho dịka anyị na-ele anya nʼenyo ma mgbe ahụ anyị ga-ahụ ihu na ihu. Ugbu a, ihe m mara ezughị oke, ma mgbe ahụ aga m amazu, dịka m bụ onye a mazuru.
13 But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.
Ọ dị ihe atọ na-adịgide adịgide. Ha bụ okwukwe, olileanya, na ịhụnanya. Ma nʼime ha niile, ihe kachasị ha niile bụ ịhụnanya.
