Notes on this text (3)
- Church Slavonic in its traditional (Synodal) spelling, with accents, breathings and titlo abbreviations, shown in the Ponomar font (SIL Open Font License).
- Exodus 36–39 follow the Septuagint's order; the digital source has no verse divisions there, so Exodus 36:8–end and chapters 37, 38 and 39 each appear as one block.
- Not shown: the lectionary pericope numbers (зача́ло) and the marginal glosses of the digital source. The Prayer of Manasseh stands at the end of 2 Chronicles (36:24), as in the Slavonic Bible; the prologue of Sirach and the opening verse of Lamentations are joined to verse 1.

1 А҆́ще ѧ҆зы̑ки человѣ́ческими глаго́лю и҆ а҆́гг҃льскими, любве́ же не и҆́мамъ, бы́хъ (ꙗ҆́кѡ) мѣ́дь звенѧ́щи, и҆лѝ кѷмва́лъ звѧца́ѧй.
1 Ἐὰν ταῖς γλώσσαις τῶν ἀνθρώπων λαλῶ καὶ τῶν ἀγγέλων, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, γέγονα χαλκὸς ἠχῶν ἢ κύμβαλον ἀλαλάζον.
2 И҆ а҆́ще и҆́мамъ прⷪ҇ро́чество, и҆ вѣ́мъ та̑йны всѧ̑ и҆ ве́сь ра́зꙋмъ, и҆ а҆́ще и҆́мамъ всю̀ вѣ́рꙋ, ꙗ҆́кѡ и҆ го́ры преставлѧ́ти, любве́ же не и҆́мамъ, ничто́же є҆́смь.
2 καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω προφητείαν καὶ εἰδῶ τὰ μυστήρια πάντα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν γνῶσιν, καὶ ἐὰν ἔχω πᾶσαν τὴν πίστιν, ὥστε ὄρη μεθιστάνειν, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδέν εἰμι.
3 И҆ а҆́ще разда́мъ всѧ̑ и҆мѣ̑нїѧ моѧ̑, и҆ а҆́ще преда́мъ тѣ́ло моѐ, во є҆́же сжещѝ є҆̀, любве́ же не и҆́мамъ, ника́ѧ по́льза мѝ є҆́сть.
3 καὶ ἐὰν ψωμίσω πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντά μου, καὶ ἐὰν παραδῶ τὸ σῶμά μου ἵνα καυθήσομαι, ἀγάπην δὲ μὴ ἔχω, οὐδὲν ὠφελοῦμαι.
4 Любы̀ долготерпи́тъ, милосе́рдствꙋетъ, любы̀ не зави́дитъ, любы̀ не превозно́ситсѧ, не горди́тсѧ,
4 Ἡ ἀγάπη μακροθυμεῖ, χρηστεύεται, ἡ ἀγάπη οὐ ζηλοῖ, ἡ ἀγάπη οὐ περπερεύεται, οὐ φυσιοῦται,
5 не безчи́нствꙋетъ, не и҆́щетъ свои́хъ сѝ, не раздража́етсѧ, не мы́слитъ ѕла̀,
5 οὐκ ἀσχημονεῖ, οὐ ζητεῖ τὰ ἑαυτῆς, οὐ παροξύνεται, οὐ λογίζεται τὸ κακόν,
6 не ра́дꙋетсѧ ѡ҆ непра́вдѣ, ра́дꙋетсѧ же ѡ҆ и҆́стинѣ:
6 οὐ χαίρει ἐπὶ τῇ ἀδικίᾳ, συγχαίρει δὲ τῇ ἀληθείᾳ·
7 всѧ̑ лю́битъ, всемꙋ̀ вѣ́рꙋ є҆́млетъ, всѧ̑ ᲂу҆пова́етъ, всѧ̑ терпи́тъ.
7 πάντα στέγει, πάντα πιστεύει, πάντα ἐλπίζει, πάντα ὑπομένει.
8 Любы̀ николи́же ѿпа́даетъ, а҆́ще же прⷪ҇ро́чєствїѧ ᲂу҆празднѧ́тсѧ, а҆́ще ли ѧ҆зы́цы ᲂу҆мо́лкнꙋтъ, а҆́ще ра́зꙋмъ и҆спраздни́тсѧ.
8 ἡ ἀγάπη οὐδέποτε ἐκπίπτει. εἴτε δὲ προφητεῖαι, καταργηθήσονται· εἴτε γλῶσσαι, παύσονται· εἴτε γνῶσις, καταργηθήσεται.
9 Ѿ ча́сти бо разꙋмѣва́емъ и҆ ѿ ча́сти прⷪ҇ро́чествꙋемъ:
9 ἐκ μέρους δὲ γινώσκομεν καὶ ἐκ μέρους προφητεύομεν·
10 є҆гда́ же прїи́детъ соверше́нное, тогда̀, є҆́же ѿ ча́сти, ᲂу҆праздни́тсѧ.
10 ὅταν δὲ ἔλθῃ τὸ τέλειον, τότε τὸ ἐκ μέρους καταργηθήσεται.
11 Є҆гда̀ бѣ́хъ младе́нецъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ младе́нецъ глаго́лахъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ младе́нецъ мꙋ́дрствовахъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ младе́нецъ смышлѧ́хъ: є҆гда́ же бы́хъ мꙋ́жъ, ѿверго́хъ младе́нчєскаѧ.
11 ὅτε ἤμην νήπιος, ὡς νήπιος ἐλάλουν, ὡς νήπιος ἐφρόνουν, ὡς νήπιος ἐλογιζόμην· ὅτε δὲ γέγονα ἀνήρ, κατήργηκα τὰ τοῦ νηπίου.
12 Ви́димъ ᲂу҆́бѡ нн҃ѣ ꙗ҆́коже зерца́ломъ въ гада́нїи, тогда́ же лице́мъ къ лицꙋ̀: нн҃ѣ разꙋмѣ́ю ѿ ча́сти, тогда́ же позна́ю, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ позна́нъ бы́хъ.
12 βλέπομεν γὰρ ἄρτι δι᾽ ἐσόπτρου ἐν αἰνίγματι, τότε δὲ πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον· ἄρτι γινώσκω ἐκ μέρους, τότε δὲ ἐπιγνώσομαι καθὼς καὶ ἐπεγνώσθην.
13 Нн҃ѣ же пребыва́ютъ вѣ́ра, наде́жда, любы̀, трѝ сїѧ̑: бо́льши же си́хъ любы̀.
13 νυνὶ δὲ μένει πίστις, ἐλπίς, ἀγάπη, τὰ τρία ταῦτα· μείζων δὲ τούτων ἡ ἀγάπη.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Thus, whereas he had showed, that both faith and knowledge and prophecy and tongues and gifts and healing and a perfect life and martyrdom, if love be absent, are no great advantage; of necessity he next makes an outline of its matchless beauty, adorning its image with the parts of virtue as with a sort of colors, and putting together …

As the apostle has said on this point, that, when other things have been done away, then these three, "faith, hope, and charity, shall endure." For faith, which has respect to our Master, endures unchangeably, assuring us that there is but one true God, and that we should truly love Him for ever, seeing that He alone is our Father; …
Of Thy eternal life I was now certain, although I had seen it "through a glass darkly." Yet I no longer doubted that there was an incorruptible substance, from which was derived all other substance; nor did I now desire to be more certain of Thee, but more stedfast in Thee.

"For when," saith He, "that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away:" even as it befell the old law through the new.

Thus much we will hear Paul say about it, that we know in part and we prophesy in part. This and the like to this are the confessions of one who is not rude in knowledge, who threatens to give proof of Christ speaking in him, the great doctor and champion of the truth.
