"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
"Upendo huvumilia, hufadhili; upendo hauhusudu; upendo hautakabari; haujivuni; haukosi kuwa na adabu; hautafuti mambo yake; hauoni uchungu; hauhesabu mabaya; haufurahii udhalimu, bali hufurahi pamoja na kweli; huvumilia yote; huamini yote; hutumaini yote; hustahimili yote. "
