1 Corinthians 13:6

Love, The More Excellent Way

⁵ Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil; ⁶ It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true; ⁷ Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things.
