1 Korintoarrei 13

1 Baldin guiçonén eta Aingueruen lengoagez minça banadi, eta charitateric eztudan, eguin naiz cobre soinu eguiten duenaren, edo cymbala dindatzen duenaren pare.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.

2 Eta baldin banu prophetiazco dohaina, eta naquizquian mysterio guciac eta scientia gucia: eta nuen fede gucia, hambat non mendiac transporta nitzan, eta charitateric eztudan, deus eznaiz.

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing.

3 Eta baldin distribui baditzat neure on guciac paubrén hatzeco, eta baldin eman badeçat neure gorputza erre içateco, eta charitateric eztudan, etzait deus probetchatzen.

And though I give all my goods to feed the poor, and though I deliver up my body to be burned, and have not love, I am profited nothing.

4 Charitatea patient da, benigno da, charitatea ezta inuidioso: charitateac eztu insolentiaric, eta ezta hancen:

Love suffers long, and is kind; love envies not; love boasts not; is not vain,

5 Eztu deshonestateric eguiten, eztabila bere probetchuén ondoan, ezta despitatzen: eztu gaitzic pensatzen:

does nothing unbecoming, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil,

6 Ezta bidegabeaz alegueratzen, baina alegueratzen da eguiaz.

rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

7 Gauça guciac pairatzen ditu, gauça guciac sinhesten ditu, gauça guciac speratzen ditu, gauça guciac suffritzen ditu.

bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Charitatea nehoiz-ere ezta erorten: baina are prophetiác abolituren dirade, eta lengoagéc fin harturen duté, eta scientiá abolituren da.

Love never fails; but whether there be gifts of prophecy, they shall have an end; or tongues, they shall cease; or knowledge, it shall have an end.

9 Ecen partez eçagutzen dugu eta partez prophetizatzen.

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

10 Eta perfectionea ethorri datenean, orduan partez dena abolituren date.

but when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part shall have an end.

11 Haourra nincenean, haour anço minço nincén, haour anço iugeatzen nuen, haour anço pensatzen nuen: baina guiçon eguin naicenean, abolitu vkan ditut haourtassuneco manerác.

When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I had the mind of a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12 Ecen orain mirail batez ikusten dugu ilhunqui: baina orduan beguithartez beguitharte ikussiren dugu: orain eçagutzen dut partez, baina orduan eçaguturen dut eçagutu-ere naicén beçala.

Now we see through a mirror, obscurely; but then, face to face; now I know in part, but then shall I know, even as I am known.

13 Bada orain badaude hirur gauça hauc, fedea, sperançá, charitatea: baina hautarico handiena charitatea da.

And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
