English translation
Versi King James Baru
1 Although I speak with the tongues of men and angels, but have no love, I am merely a symbol of a thundering gong or breeze. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and can understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have faith, who can move mountains, but have no love, I am nothing. 3 And though I give all that I have to the poor, and surrender my body to the fire, but have no love, I find nothing.
4 Love suffers long and well; love is not jealous; love does not parade itself, not arrogant; 5 does not behave harshly, does not seek himself, is not provoked, thinks not evil; 6 do not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoice in righteousness; 7 bear all things, believe all things, hope all things, endure all things.
8 Love never fails. But if there is any prophecy, they will fail; whether there is tongues, they will stop; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish. 9 Because we know some and we partially prophesy. 10 But when that perfect one has come, then what will some be removed.
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I was understood as a child, I think as a child; but when I became a man I threw away childish things. 12 For now we see in the mirror, dark, but then face to face. Now I know some, but then I will know just as I am also known.
13 And now there is faith, hope, love, all three; but the biggest is love.

Agape
Chapter 1 Corinthians is one of many sources of definitions for the word agape when used to refer to divine love. Introducing his reverence for love in 1 Corinthians 12:31, Paul describes agape as "a better way".
"Through the glass, dark"
1 Corinthians 13:12 contains phrases ???????? ??? ???? ?? '???????? ?? ????????? ( blepomen gar meaning in esoptrou en ainigmati ), translated in 1560 Geneva Bible as "For now we see through dark glass" (without commas), words used in 1611 KJV, which add commas before "dark". This section has inspired the titles of many works, with or without commas.
Word ???????? esoptrou (genitive: nominative: ???????? esoptron ), here translated "glass", ambiguous, probably refers to a mirror or lens. Influenced by Strong Concordance, many modern translations conclude that this word specifically refers to a mirror. Examples of English translations include:
- Now we see but the reflection is as bad as in the mirror (New International Version)
- What we see now is like a dim picture in the mirror (Good News Bible)
Paul's use in accordance with the use of the term rabbinik ???????? ( aspaklaria ), a loan from the Latin specularia . It has the same ambiguous meaning, although Adam Clarke concludes that it is a reference to
