1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.
Bí èmi tilẹ̀ lè sọ oríṣìíríṣìí èdè tí ènìyàn àti ti angẹli, tí n kò bá sì ní ìfẹ́, mo kàn ń pariwo bí ago lásán ni tàbí bí i kimbali olóhùn gooro.
2 And 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 have not love, I am nothing.
Bí mo bá ní ẹ̀bùn ìsọtẹ́lẹ̀, tí mo sì ní òye gbogbo ohun ìjìnlẹ̀, àti gbogbo ìmọ̀, bí mo sì ni gbogbo ìgbàgbọ́ tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí mo lè ṣí àwọn òkè ńlá nídìí, tí èmi kò sì ní ìfẹ́, èmi kò jẹ nǹkan kan.
3 And if I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profiteth me nothing.
Bí mo bá fi gbogbo nǹkan tí mo ní tọrẹ fún àwọn aláìní, tí mo sì fi ara mi fún ni láti sùn ṣùgbọ́n tí n kò ní ìfẹ́, kò ní èrè kan fún mi.
4 Love suffereth long, [and] is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Ìfẹ́ a máa mú sùúrù, ìfẹ́ a máa ṣeun, ìfẹ́ kì í ṣe ìlara, ìfẹ́ kì í fẹ̀, ìfẹ́ kì í sọ̀rọ̀ ìgbéraga.
5 doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil;
Ìfẹ́ kì í hùwà àìtọ́, kì í wá ohun ara rẹ̀ nìkan. Ìfẹ́ kì í bínú fùfù, ìfẹ́ kì í fi búburú ọmọ ẹnìkejì sínú.
6 rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth;
Inú ìfẹ́ kì í dùn sí àìṣòótọ́. Ṣùgbọ́n inú rẹ̀ a máa dùn nígbà gbogbo.
7 beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
A máa faradà ohun gbogbo sí òtítọ́, a máa gba ohun gbogbo gbọ́, a máa retí ohun gbogbo, a máa fàyàrán ohun gbogbo.
8 Love never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall be done away; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall be done away.
Ìfẹ́ kì í kùnà láé, kì í sì í yẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá ṣe ìsọtẹ́lẹ̀ ni, wọn yóò dópin, bí ó bá ṣe ẹ̀bùn ahọ́n ni, wọn yóò dákẹ́, bí ó bá ṣe pé ìmọ̀ ni yóò di asán.
9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part:
Nítorí àwa mọ̀ ní apá kan, àwa sì sọtẹ́lẹ̀ ní apá kan.
10 but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí èyí ti o pé bá dé, èyí tí í ṣe tí apá kan yóò dópin.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now that I am become a man, I have put away childish things.
Nígbà tí mó wà ni èwe, èmi á máa sọ̀rọ̀ bi èwe, èmi a máa mòye bí èwe, èmi a máa gbèrò bí èwe. Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí mó di ọkùnrin tán, mo fi ìwà èwe sílẹ̀.
12 For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I have been known.
Nítorí pé nísinsin yìí àwa ń ríran bàìbàì nínú dígí; nígbà náà a ó rí í lójúkojú. Nísinsin yìí mò mọ̀ pé ní apá kan; nígbà náà èmi o mọ̀ lẹ́kùnrẹ́rẹ́, kódà bí mo ti dí mí mọ̀ pẹ̀lú.
13 But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
Ǹjẹ́ nísinsin yìí àwọn nǹkan mẹ́ta wọ̀nyí dúró: ìgbàgbọ́, ìrètí, àti ìfẹ́. Ṣùgbọ́n èyí tí o tóbi jù nínú wọn ni ìfẹ́.
