1 Corinthians 13:4

Love, The More Excellent Way

³ And though I sell all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it avails me nothing. ⁴ Love suffers long and is kind; love envies not; love makes no parade, is not puffed up, ⁵ is not rude, nor selfish, nor easily provoked. Love bears no malice, never rejoices over wrong-doing,
