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.

THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become as sounding brass, and tinkling 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 though I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and all manner of science; and though I have all faith, so that I could 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 deal out all my goods in alms, and deliver up my body that I should be burned, but have not love, I am nothing advantaged by it.

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

Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated with pride,

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

doth not act unseemly, seeketh not her own advantage, is not passionate, thinketh no evil;

6 Ezta bidegabeaz alegueratzen, baina alegueratzen da eguiaz.

rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth in 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 if there be prophetic gifts, they shall be no more; if tongues, they shall cease; if science, it shall vanish away.

9 Ecen partez eçagutzen dugu eta partez prophetizatzen.

For we know partially, and prophesy partially.

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

But when that which is perfect cometh, then 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 thought as a child, I reasoned as a child: but when I grew a man, I 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 by reflected light, indistinctly; but then face to face: now I know partially; but then shall I know even as I am known.

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

But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greater of these is love.
