8 Love never fails. But where there are
prophecies, they will cease; where there
are tongues, they will be stilled; where
there is knowledge, it will pass away.
9 For we know in part and we prophesy
in part,
10 but when perfection comes, the
imperfect disappears.
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 put
childish ways behind me.
12 Now we see but a poor reflection as in
a mirror; then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know
fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith,
hope and love. But the greatest of these
is love.
