1 Corinthians 13:11–12
11 When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. 12 Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity.* All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely.
* | 13:12 Greek see face to face. |

Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I stopped those childish ways. 12 It is the same with us.

1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — American Standard Version (ASV)

1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — 1890 Darby Bible (DARBY)
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; when I became a man, I had done with what belonged to the child. 12 For we see now through a dim window obscurely, but then face to face; now I know partially, but then I shall know according as I also have been known.
1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, thought like a child, and reasoned like a child. When I became an adult, I no longer used childish ways. 12 Now we see a blurred image in a mirror. Then we will see very clearly. Now my knowledge is incomplete. Then I will have complete knowledge as God has complete knowledge of me.
1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — The Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
11 When I was a child,
I spoke like a child,
I thought like a child,
I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man,
I put aside childish things.
12 For now we see indistinctly, as in a mirror,
but then face to face.
Now I know in part,
but then I will know fully,
as I am fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — The New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, even as I have been fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — The Lexham English Bible (LEB)
11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.

Now I know in part, but then I will know completely, just as I have also been completely known.
1 Corinthians 13:11–12 — New International Reader’s Version (1998) (NIrV)
