1 Korintoarrei 13

1 Baldin guiçonén eta Aingueruen lengoagez minça banadi, eta charitateric eztudan, eguin naiz cobre soinu eguiten duenaren, edo cymbala dindatzen duenaren pare.

If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.

2 Eta baldin banu prophetiazco dohaina, eta naquizquian mysterio guciac eta scientia gucia: eta nuen fede gucia, hambat non mendiac transporta nitzan, eta charitateric eztudan, deus eznaiz.

And if I have [the gift of] prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

3 Eta baldin distribui baditzat neure on guciac paubrén hatzeco, eta baldin eman badeçat neure gorputza erre içateco, eta charitateric eztudan, etzait deus probetchatzen.

And if I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charitatea patient da, benigno da, charitatea ezta inuidioso: charitateac eztu insolentiaric, eta ezta hancen:

Love suffereth long, [and] is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Eztu deshonestateric eguiten, eztabila bere probetchuén ondoan, ezta despitatzen: eztu gaitzic pensatzen:

doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil;

6 Ezta bidegabeaz alegueratzen, baina alegueratzen da eguiaz.

rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth;

7 Gauça guciac pairatzen ditu, gauça guciac sinhesten ditu, gauça guciac speratzen ditu, gauça guciac suffritzen ditu.

beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charitatea nehoiz-ere ezta erorten: baina are prophetiác abolituren dirade, eta lengoagéc fin harturen duté, eta scientiá abolituren da.

Love never faileth: but whether [there be] prophecies, they shall be done away; whether [there be] tongues, they shall cease; whether [there be] knowledge, it shall be done away.

9 Ecen partez eçagutzen dugu eta partez prophetizatzen.

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part;

10 Eta perfectionea ethorri datenean, orduan partez dena abolituren date.

but when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away.

11 Haourra nincenean, haour anço minço nincén, haour anço iugeatzen nuen, haour anço pensatzen nuen: baina guiçon eguin naicenean, abolitu vkan ditut haourtassuneco manerác.

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child: now that I am become a man, I have put away childish things.

12 Ecen orain mirail batez ikusten dugu ilhunqui: baina orduan beguithartez beguitharte ikussiren dugu: orain eçagutzen dut partez, baina orduan eçaguturen dut eçagutu-ere naicén beçala.

For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known.

13 Bada orain badaude hirur gauça hauc, fedea, sperançá, charitatea: baina hautarico handiena charitatea da.

But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
