Sie Corinth 13

1 Nga finne ku in kaskas ke kas lun mwet ac kas lun lipufan, a fin wangin lungse yuruk, nga ac oana pusren brass su tungtung, ku cymbal su erarrar.

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 Nga finne ku in fahkak kas lun God, ac etu ma lukma nukewa ac etauk nukewa; ac fin oasr yuruk lulalfongi nukewa in mokle eol, a fin wangin lungse yuruk, nga wangin.

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 Nga finne kitala ma luk nukewa ac sang monuk in firiryak — a fin wangin lungse yuruk, nga tia akwoyeyuk kac.

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 Lungse el mongfisrasr ac kulang; lungse el tia sok, lungse el tia sifacna konkin, el tia inse fulat;

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

5 lungse el tia oru ma sufal, el tia nunku kacl sifacna, el tia sa in mulat, el tia oakla ma koluk orek nu sel.

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

6 Lungse el tia engan ke ma koluk, a el engan ke ma pwaye.

rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth;

7 Lungse el tiana fuhleak; el lulalfongi ac finsrak ac muteng in pacl nukewa.

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

8 Lungse el tiana wanginla. A funu ke kas in palu, ma nu ke kitin pacl; ac mwe sang in kaskas ke siena kain pusra ac fah tui; ac etauk ac fah wanginla pac.

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 Tuh etauk lasr ac fahkak lasr ke kas lun God tiana fonla;

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

10 a ke ma su fonla ac suwoslana ac tuku, na ma su tia fonla ac fah wanginla.

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

11 Ke nga tulik, nga kaskas oana tulik, etu luk oana etu lun tulik, ac nga nunku oana tulik; a inge ke nga mwet matu, nga sisla ouiya lun tulik.

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 Liye lasr ke God in pacl inge, oana ke kut ngetang nu ke sie selngun ohk; a tok kut fah ngetani sie sin sie. Inge nga etu tafu na; a tok ac fah fonla etu luk — oana ke God El arulana eteyu.

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

13 Ac inge oasr lulalfongi, finsrak ac lungse; ac ma se ma yohk sin ma tolu inge pa lungse.

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