1 Corinthians 13

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal.	1 Si linguis hominum loquar et angelorum, caritatem au tem non habeam,factus sum velut aes sonans aut cymbalum tinniens.
2 And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing.	2 Et si habuero prophetiam et noverim mysteria omnia et omnem scientiam, et sihabuero omnem fidem, ita ut montes transferam, caritatem autem non habuero,nihil sum.
3 If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.	3 Et si distribuero in cibos omnes facultates meas et si tradidero corpus meum,ut glorier, caritatem autem non habuero, nihil mihi prodest.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, (love) is not pompous, it is not inflated,	4 Caritas patiens est, benigna est caritas, non aemulatur, non agit superbe, noninflatur,
5 it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury,	5 non est ambitiosa, non quaerit, quae sua sunt, non irritatur, noncogitat malum,
6 it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.	6 non gaudet super iniquitatem, congaudet autem veritati;
7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.	7 omniasuffert, omnia credit, omnia sperat, omnia sustinet.
8 Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing.	8 Caritas numquam excidit. Sive prophetiae, evacuabuntur; sive linguae,cessabunt; sive scientia, destruetur.
9 For we know partially and we prophesy partially,	9 Ex parte enim cognoscimus et ex parteprophetamus;
10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.	10 cum autem venerit, quod perfectum est, evacuabitur, quod exparte est.
11 When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things.	11 Cum essem parvulus, loquebar ut parvulus, sapiebam ut parvulus,cogitabam ut parvulus; quando factus sum vir, evacuavi, quae erant parvuli.
12 At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known.	12 Videmus enim nunc per speculum in aenigmate, tunc autem facie ad faciem; nunccognosco ex parte, tunc autem cognoscam, sicut et cognitus sum.
13 So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love.	13 Nunc autem manet fides, spes, caritas, tria haec; maior autem ex his estcaritas.
