1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak with the languages of men and of angels, but don’t have love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
martyasvargiiyaa. naa. m bhaa. saa bhaa. samaa. no. aha. m yadi premahiino bhaveya. m tarhi vaadakataalasvaruupo ninaadakaaribheriisvaruupa"sca bhavaami|
2 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 don’t have love, I am nothing.

3 If I give away all my goods to feed the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but don’t have love, it profits me nothing.

4 Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud,
prema cirasahi. s.nu hitai. si ca, prema nirdve. sam a"sa. tha. m nirgarvva nca|
5 doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;
apara. m tat kutsita. m naacarati, aatmace. s.taa. m na kurute sahasaa na krudhyati paraani. s.ta. m na cintayati,
6 doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
adharmme na tu. syati satya eva santu. syati|
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.
tat sarvva. m titik. sate sarvvatra vi"svasiti sarvvatra bhadra. m pratiik. sate sarvva. m sahate ca|
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with.
premno lopa. h kadaapi na bhavi. syati, ii"svariiyaade"sakathana. m lopsyate parabhaa. saabhaa. sa. na. m nivartti. syate j naanamapi lopa. m yaasyati|
9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part;
yato. asmaaka. m j naana. m kha. n.damaatram ii"svariiyaade"sakathanamapi kha. n.damaatra. m|
10 but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.
kintvasmaasu siddhataa. m gate. su taani kha. n.damaatraa. ni lopa. m yaasyante|
11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things.
baalyakaale. aha. m baala ivaabhaa. se baala ivaacintaya nca kintu yauvane jaate tatsarvva. m baalyaacara. na. m parityaktavaan|
12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known.
idaaniim abhramadhyenaaspa. s.ta. m dar"sanam asmaabhi rlabhyate kintu tadaa saak. saat dar"sana. m lapsyate| adhunaa mama j naanam alpi. s.tha. m kintu tadaaha. m yathaavagamyastathaivaavagato bhavi. syaami|
13 But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.
