4 Charity suffers long [and] is benign; charity envies not; charity does [nothing] without due reason, is not puffed up,
5 is not injurious, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil,
6 rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Charity is never lost, but prophecies shall come to an end, tongues shall cease, and knowledge shall come to an end.
