31Set your hearts, then, on the more important gifts.
Best of all, however, is the following way.
Love
13I may be able to speak the languages of human beings and even of angels, but if I have no love, my speech is no more than a noisy gong or a clanging bell. 2*I may have the gift of inspired preaching; I may have all knowledge and understand all secrets; I may have all the faith needed to move mountains—but if I have no love, I am nothing. 3I may give away everything I have, and even give up my body to be burnt—o but if I have no love, this does me no good.
Footnotes
- oto be burnt; some manuscripts have in order to boast.
