1 Corinthians 13:11-13
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
11 When I was a child, I was speaking like a child, thinking like a child, counting[a] like[b] a child— when I have become[c] a man, I have set-aside the things of the child. 12 For now we are seeing through[d] a mirror, in an enigma[e]— but then face to face. Now I know in part— but then I will know-fully, just as I also was fully-known. 13 But now[f] these three are remaining— faith, hope, love. But love is the greater of these.
