“Love is always patient and kind;
it is never jealous,
love is never boastful or conceited;
it is never rude or selfish;
it does not take offense, and is not resentful.
Love takes no pleasure in other people’s
sins but delights in the truth;
it is always ready to excuse,
to trust,
to hope,
and to endure whatever comes.
Love does not come to an end.”
