Good News Bible

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 Good News Bible (GNB)

4. Love is patient and kind; it is not jealous or conceited or proud;

5. love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep a record of wrongs;

6. love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth.

7. Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.

8. Love is eternal. There are inspired messages, but they are temporary; there are gifts of speaking in strange tongues, but they will cease; there is knowledge, but it will pass.
